linkus is always so much fun to watch at GDQ because he's so receptive to the audience and the donation readings. He's got a really fun personality and I love how well he explains what he's doing
any speedrun is good for sleeping you must not have mastered full tiredness and laziness yet. i've slept to an OOT tas plenty of times. most of the time being tired means i gotta search videos i wanna sleep to. it's a hard business trust me this video is just something you Save Starr couldn't sleep to. i have a playlist of speedruns that are basicly sleepbait for me in case i really need to snooze i'm all prepped up.
Damn that game hel;d wonderfully over the years. It still looks just as gorgeous as the year it released, thanks to the art style! It could release in 2020 with the same art, I wouldn't bat an eye!
Oh my gosh. I didn't know that barrier skip had been consistently found/proven yet. Holy crap. That blew my mind when he said he was going to do barrier skip.
This remains my favorite Wind Waker run on AGDQ. The comments from the donators were great, the audience was great, the announcer rolled with everything the donators and the audience did (which is great), the couch was awesome and Linkus is my favorite WW runner.
This crowd is the best. Everyone dancing in rhythm with the pauses was the absolute best and had me in stitches. That plus everyone shouting "orb!", "sploosh", or "kaboom!" along with some praising the sun was hilarious. Great to have an engaged crowd.
i watched this live and now watching it on youtube, it is SO much better! Being able to skip the infinite amount of kabooms and orbs said makes it so much more enjoyable to watch!
Watching this live was great but you could see the pain in Linkus and Gym's eyes after an hour of repeating the same stale catchphrases. Message to people who donated with "Kaboom" or "Orb": You have donated to a great cause and have thousands reading your message. Is that opportunity to make them laugh or feel some kind of emotion really better utilized by ending it with a word that people will scream that will make them forget your initial words?
I get that feels annoying in the VOD, but the ORB and KABOOM things were a ton of fun during the stream. There's a manic energy that appears a few late nights into a GDQ that makes any kind of participation really fun even if it's obnoxious in hindsight. Anyways, let people have fun with their memes.
Anybody else notice how incredibly nice the announcer is? She thanks everyone who's donation is announcer's choice! She's awesome EDIT: The first announcer, I just got far enough to see there's another one! The second one has an AMAZING voice though.
It's late night/early morning GDQ. They get loud to keep up the hype other wise everyone would fall asleep. Just because you don't like to have fun doesn't mean the rest of us don't.
Chris Trenkov I have loved GDQ events for over 4 years, but I noticed a lot of repetitive interruptions this year. I’m not trying to be too bland but it was just too much. In the Mario Odyssey run there was a lot of crowd yelling too. However, if the runner allows it, and the organizers allow it, so be it. Certainly not enjoyable for me, though.
It made a great meme for charity!! People donated to keep the KABOOM hype going and i think that is really special. If they didnt keep reading them they wouldnt have raised nearly as much money. Do it to kill cancer man!
This is an absolutely incredible run. Super interesting to watch, great explanations, great commentary, overall just a super pleasant experience. Thank you for showcasing this game and category!
Enjoyed the run as always. Everyone did a great job from Linkus and Gymnast to Patty and KungFu. Most of the comments are just people complaining about the audience and the fun you guys had but don't let that sour your mood. Incredibly entertaining!

@@TheUltimateRare I mean if BotW being intentionally beatable in under an hour isn't proof that they love speedrunners, idk what is.
@@TheBrutalSax The Metroid franchise is proof that Nintendo loves speedrunners
They fixed it in Mario 64, but in Japan

@BrutalSax I wouldn't say that's a good quality for a speedrunning game
no makar there's floormasters there!
oh no he has airpods in he can't hear us
oh god
oh no
This is hands down, one of the funniest comments I’ve ever seen.
even five years later i still found this entertaining
It's been a few years, but I do really adore watching this speedrun every so often. It's one of my favourites. Thanks for having this up.
Local village boy rapidly swims across oceans and saves the world in 6 hours.
Ryan Monaco And gets ALL the stuff
Sounds like Baywatch to me
Ryan Monaco technically it was 6 hours, 12 minutes and 57 seconds, but seeing as it was a 100% Run the details can be overlooked just a tad bit.
Local boy also manages to perform teleport, use pots to beat half a dungeon in pijamas and get a title of tresure hunter in 6 hours.
🤣
Runner introduction starts at 0:09.
Run starts at 0:56.
Couch commentary is provided by Gymnast86.
Patty and KungfuFruitcup are the hosts.
Do we have sgdq 2019 schedule?
He screamed that he held the shield, is it true?

Human TAS right here.
thats just how your brain works. your subconscious kinda takes over and you can do/think about other things. nifty.

My Dude, where's Makar?
@@monopolyrubix1875 bruuuuuuh you did noooooot
The audience dancing in time with the pauses is going to be the death of me.
At least around 26:00, they point with the Wind Waker songs, too.
*pausas
>:)
Brennan Moore oh god!
I usually skip Pausa so I am so goddamn glad you pointed that out so I could view them all slowly joining in until everyone was dancing, thank you
XD I just saw this lol.
Me:"man that pause sound is probably annoying the crowd..."
:Checks crowd:
Crowd: *Bobbing heads side to side with the Pausa's.*
😄
Right? I looked up to see the crowd riding the wave and it was adorable.
Can you imagine laughing at Kaboom comments being made for two and a half hours?
This post was made by the Pausa meme gang.
Sploosh
Gymnast has a super powerful aura the whole way through
He just sits there, all powerful like, he looks like a god
Why is this comment so good?? xD
Gymnast is a great Zelda runner and I agree that his aura is just a new power
linkus is always so much fun to watch at GDQ because he's so receptive to the audience and the donation readings. He's got a really fun personality and I love how well he explains what he's doing
i watched this live and the amount of "KABOOMS" and "SPLOOSHES" had the chat absolutely *writhing*
this vod is very hard to listen to
1:44:30 2 ships are cuddling, the runner get cuddled, all the ships cuddle love is butiful
6 hours of Kaboom, orb and Sploosh with a zelda speedrun in the background
2:20:45 - guy on left finally changes positions
A rare sight to behold
Lmao
What a legend
He goes back for the previous position not much after.
lmao that's gymnast86
Im always happy to watch Linkus7 Play, great runner. He has an amazing presence, I hope he goes far in his speedrunner Career
The ancient Deku tree addressing Link as "My Dude" is pretty funny. Great game, great runner, great video. Thanks for the upload!
Up there with the classic naming of Epona as "MyButt" in Twilight Princess
Linkus: very serious detailed explanations of the manual super swim glitch
Audience: *vibing*
I was genuinely cackling, this is so wholesome
5:42:09 gotta love that little „call me“ signal from Linkus there. Even though his husband is sitting right there next to him ^^
I half expected Linkus to say at 3:37:41 "since I lost Makar, I'll have to take the bus"
i watch these to sleep at night and i woke up randomly to "come on my dude. come get these swedish meatballs. i got them at ikea"
3:12:11 if the KABOOMS get too soul crushing, skip here. It gets more bearable after this point
It is actually so annoying
You're a god damn hero
My head was going to explode, thank goodness it's over. Thank you!
The run itself is entertaining but all the donations are killing me.
I thought I could not get tired of that. I was wrong.
I usually look forward to long Zelda runs for sleeping. But... this one... is not good for sleeping.
Why is that.
KABOOOOM
Dave Starr what do u mean? KABOOOOOOOM
KA-BOOM!!!

I recommend everyone to check out the wind waker run from 6 months ago, this dude is a treat to watch
1:44:42 Omg Gymnast86 cuddling Linkus7 on the couch for good luck is the best thing i have ever seen.
Also the crowd is the fucking best
any 3d Nintendo developer: * forgets to put backwards speed cap *
speed runners: (͡ ͡° ͜ つ ͡͡°)
Linkus being utterly confused at 3:10:54 is cracking me up. PRAISE THE SUN! 🙆
These guys are godly, Linkus and Gym are the true GOATs of Zelda
Pausa v2.0
Bradley Skyrme 😥
Six hours is a lot, but to watch a Linkus GDQ run is worth it, he's great at explaining everything well.
Damn that game hel;d wonderfully over the years. It still looks just as gorgeous as the year it released, thanks to the art style! It could release in 2020 with the same art, I wouldn't bat an eye!
Tbf this is the hd version but even the original is gorgeous too
I come back to this vid at least once a year
This crowd is amazing, dancing at pause, motioning the wind waker songs
3:13:36
Et tu, My Dude...
1:45:27 This GDQ was full of amazing impressions, but this one from the crowd is definitely my favorite.
Oh my gosh. I didn't know that barrier skip had been consistently found/proven yet. Holy crap. That blew my mind when he said he was going to do barrier skip.
This remains my favorite Wind Waker run on AGDQ.
The comments from the donators were great, the audience was great, the announcer rolled with everything the donators and the audience did (which is great), the couch was awesome and Linkus is my favorite WW runner.
I just can't with the back couch. You people are too adorable reacting to literally everything! Makes the run a little better
Shout out to the back up dancers during the super swim
The cuddling actually helped lmao
My 2 favourite speedrunners cuddling pleases the RNG Gods.
Do you ever just watch this again just because Linkus and Gymnast are commentating?
This crowd is the best. Everyone dancing in rhythm with the pauses was the absolute best and had me in stitches. That plus everyone shouting "orb!", "sploosh", or "kaboom!" along with some praising the sun was hilarious. Great to have an engaged crowd.
4:00 love the crowd
4:34:16 Look up "SEAGULLS! (Stop it now)" to understand the reference to that persons name.
You guys won't regret it.
Always super pleasant to have an announcer that has a ton of personality and a wonderful voice to keep the run consistently entertaining.
I love how the audience casually dances to the rhythm of the pauses at the beginning
Watching the crowd dance for manual super swim buildup was the best part of this run
this has some great "man comes to watch younger brother's game event" energy
i watched this live and now watching it on youtube, it is SO much better! Being able to skip the infinite amount of kabooms and orbs said makes it so much more enjoyable to watch!
Just watching the audience vibing in the back put a smile on my face.
Me: *watching this a year and a half later*
Lunkus: *beasts sploosh kaboom*
Me: *still claps*

The orb joke is not that funny, it might’ve been funny at the beginning but then the audience milked it to death.
Lol stfu

Absolutely loved watching this run! Linkus7 is such a good entertainer and great runner!
Anybody here think Linkus and Gym look like theyre brothers or something?
1:45:28 I love the "Sploosh" and "Kabooms" but the "Hooray Yay!" is funny too
Oh my freaking god the audience during the first super swim set-up. I never noticed that.
Great run, great crowd, so much fun! Plus, the announcer is awesome, lovely voice and cool attitude.
The audience participation on this is through the roof!
6 hour speedrun, what a champ!
2:49:46 This is why I love Gym
Gymnast is pretty awesome.
First time people clapped, now they've danced. I love the crowd during the "Pausa" moment, can't wait to see them again (and Linkus) in SGDQ!
they're getting tired of the kabooms two and a half hours in lol. You did this to yourselves.
Ever notice how Wind Waker runs make them mad donations?
People tune into The Legend of Zelda. Also it is 6 hours
1:00:28 And that's all the permission the donators need...
Great runner, couch support, and AMAZING announcer!
Anybody else notice how incredibly nice the announcer is? She thanks everyone who's donation is announcer's choice! She's awesome
EDIT: The first announcer, I just got far enough to see there's another one! The second one has an AMAZING voice though.
Legend Kaboom and the Pausa of Sploosh
Patty + Zelda = good time
Didn't know Max (Gassy Mexican) watched speedruns. That's pretty cool.
What an amazing run! Having so much fun watching it!
Even though it is a 100% run, nothing about the game is really spoiled
That’s where you’re wrong kiddo
I lost it at the “My Dude, where’s Makar?” comment. The pun game is strong with this run.
So glad no one got tired of the sploosh kaboom orb donations and everyone loved them the whole time!
Right?
K J8011 No :(
@@ragepoweredgamer You are part of the problem
I liked orb but the others...
It's late night/early morning GDQ. They get loud to keep up the hype other wise everyone would fall asleep. Just because you don't like to have fun doesn't mean the rest of us don't.
I love all sorry not sorry
Is no one gonna talk about the complete ear destruction at 1:27:04
Why does this help me fall asleep so well?
I just want to say that Kungfufruitcup is doing an amazing job as host, really do hope that she'll be back for SGDQ.
This game is so beautiful, thanks for the run
I like to think that the Link from this game goes on to Phantom Hourglass and beats that 100% in like 6 hours too.
What a run + a good long 6 hour comedy included
What an amazing game my dudes 9.7/10, superb job Linkus7 epic
I like that the people behind the couch is dancing during the pausing and unpausing. 4:45
"I can not roll with a pig in my hand."
I love how this game is already so broken yet still takes 6 hours to beat.
I personally liked this game most of all AGDQ 2019 playlist
6:32 to skip pause madness
3:26 shoutout to the guy in the back dancing to the pausing
The couch is great. Every time he uses the Wind Waker they wave there arms like link
Tried listening to this overnight and my phone died midway and now we have the vod
7.8/100 - Too much water.
I wish the donation reader wouldn’t read every single KABOOM donation. It got old pretty quick and feels super forced
It does, but you can say the same for HYPE

@@beanlegume9965 what are you talking about? It was a great game or are you just mad because they wanted to do something new?
