I don't think I could do damageless, but when I play BOTW and TOTK, my rules are: no deaths, no cooking (unless story-mandated), no healing mid-battle (foods and potions that I've been given are fine, but mostly apples and inns to recover). I never 100%, but always finish all shrines, and as many sidequests as I am in the mood for. Just enough challenge to be fun, but not so much that it isn't fun anymore! ...like trying to hunt down ALL korok seeds.
The Majora 3-Day challenge (6 game days, if the prologue cycle is included) is indeed challenging, but doable. I'm even able to upgrade my sword during the run in order to make the Twinmold fight a lot easier and faster (which is why I finish Great Bay Temple swordless - also doable). I even did the 9-day challenge, which is the minimum required to get 100% completion (because it requires 2 Anju/Kafei cycles, plus an All-Night Mask separate cycle).
I didn't even think about how long you would need to 100% Majora's mask but that makes sense. As much as I love Majora's mask, having to do the anju/kafei quest was always such a pain 😂
@@GumleafGamer It is a pain - but I had a lot of fun figuring out the strategy, how to circumvent that and divide the quests and sidequests throughout the run, for maximium efficiency on both time and rupee management.
great video dude! I think you did a great job at capturing the essence of each game. really interested to find out about the challenges in the remaining zelda games now!
Awesome Vid! Another challenge for MM that I would put is MajinPhil's 100% no-hit run (no damage, no shield blocks, etc). It is a crazy 10 hour-ish run that is a must watch! He hasn't put out a YT vid on it but it should be on his Twitch.
Probably when I tried to 100% botw, even with like 15 mods added to try and make it less miserable I only managed to get about 100 koroks in before I gave up 😂
@@GumleafGamer the sound goes funny between 1:18 and 1:20, like a sentence was edited out. But it could be my player too. Either way it was a good video and it's great seeing a fellow Australian Zelda fan/ creator. You got a new subscriber ^-^
@@chanimalice3874 I think it's just the transition between the background music, the 8bit music from the older games can sound funny at times but regardless thank you so much! Already working on the next video 😊

Honestly hunting all koroks seeds should have been on the list because I will never have the patience for that 💀
So you like Oakareener of Time, huh?
I am indeed an enjoyer of the time travelling ocarina 🥳

good video, it was super interesting to see what challenges a few of the many zelda games have, maybe i'll take up on a few of these 👍
do all of them twice

I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I'll definitely have to check it out, it sounds hectic
Amazing video! Of all the Zelda challenges you've done, which was the most soul crushing?

Weird editing glitch at 1:18 Or is my player broken? 😅
Hmmmm Im not seeing it, but I might be biased 😅
