There's a lot going on in this run and it can be really confusing if you don't know what's going on. To explain stuff, I have an FAQ here pastebin.com/1CPXWwmy as well as a fully commentated demonstration run of this route here ua-cam.com/video/wHZGiJD2KNk/v-deo.html
I hadn’t even finished watching the last run. Good on yea man. I discovered you back when you achieved the first sub 4 hour run and have been hooked on you and speed running in general ever since
The fact that we now live in a timeline where 13th try dampe is not only WR but also 1:44 away from sub 3:30:00 simply baffles me, dude. ZFG is undisputedly the GOAT. You went real fast this run, son.
I'd like to point out that from the start of the ganon fight until the final split was made the best possible time was listed as 3:31:44 and ZFG pulled off a 3:31:43 and bamboozled his own split software. Absolute legend.
Just for the sheer absurdity of this run, it needs to be at a GDQ. Also, ZFG's mastery of the ridiculously hard tricks deserves so much more recognition.
Brandon Job I mean the Deku tree item manip that ZFG ran at AGDQ 2020 also could’ve gone sideways what like...10 times in the span of a few minutes? We can at least hope for a horribly written Kotaku article again just so ZFG and the OoT community get the recognition they deserve.
I doubt this run will ever be marathon safe. It can die over the smallest mistakes, and being able to get the run back on track after an error with SRM can take up a lot of time. Then again having to save frequently just in case you softlock with F Boots.
Yeah, a GDQ run would be awesome, but as the ones above me said, this run is held together by such a small thread that can be cut at any point. It’s not like normal games where if you do a mistake, sure, you’ll be set back a bit. In this route... good luck 😅
DesTr0 I was thinking of fixes for that; maybe ZFG could have several save states at various big points incase some stuff goes wrong. I’m not sure if that’s okay, but F-Boots need to be seen lol (Also tilted link)
Honestly, when you show the graph vs best splits at the end, it's really impressive! Apart from Dampe that makes a huge bump, the rest is quite linear, no gigantic timeloss, that's great
This is why I love OoT runs; I take several months off from watching, and the whole run changes in the meanwhile. It's amazing to see how much the game can be broken, it's almost surprising now that anything ever worked the way it was intended.
thats the ZFG1 I know and love. only 3/4 of the way through your previous world record. and you upload a new one. keep chipping away at that time. Keep in mind I only watch parts at a time.
do you think the setups you are using for srm is as fast as you can possibly do it, or do you think you can improve in the speed of setup to bring time down to sub 3:17? maybe even 3:15?
Sick run Zfg congrats on the pb. I gotta say, thanks for uploading this without chat it has become so predictable and annoying that as a viewer that can't always watch your streams the video it's better without it.
What a (cool) strange sequence that is after Dampe: using Farore’s Wind somewhere you’re not supposed with a button you’re not supposed to, warping to bottom of the well for some reason, getting caught by the wall master and getting thrown into the barinade fight. Like, what??
is it faster to get the wooden shield in kokiri forest? in the tas they are getting it from bottom of the well together with the hylian shield, btw does SRM also work in majoras mask?
faster because of the flying skull dude's cycle. you need him to be at the right spot to do the ocarina dive, and you have BARELY enough time to go to just one chest
Im so confused at the beginning where he keeps randomly opening invisible chests getting all the items at goron river.... How did he do that? I dont get what happened at all
read the FAQ in the pinned comment. basically he is tricking the game into thinking that the butterfly is supposed to give him items based on factors like his angle and the bombchu's location
Why These Never Have Chat?, I was there, now i can't prove it. FeelsBadMan Jokes Aside, What a Nice Run!, i just hope First Try Dampé will be possible some day, that would be so Pog!
I was watching another vid and zfg mentioned a video got demonetized or blocked because there was bad language in the chat so I guess it's safer to leave it out
They're not part of the category, since they get overridden by the next size up anyway. Same deal as why he doesn't need to get all the trading quest items, or Giant's Knife.
Only the highest upgrades are required to come from source, so I get the 20 stick and 30 nut upgrades from the glitched items in zoras river, then get the 30 stick and 40 nut upgrades from the scrubs that sell them later on.
bruh i literally just finished the reccy from 2 days ago pepehands either way gratz dude. nothing but respect for the grind. Only thing I don't like about this is no chat :(
He uses SRM to overwrite data relating to one of the butterflies in Zora's river, which you can see when it stops flying and he is able to pick it up and move it. After that, a script which the butterfly runs every frame starts to give him items based on some junk data that's set up to align with where a new bombchu will load into memory, so when he launches a bombchu, the butterfly gives him an item every frame depending on the bombchu's position relative to the camera. By setting up the trajectory and camera angle just right, zfg gets some pre-planned sequences of items that are worked out to include the items he needs to get through most of the game and leave out certain values that would mess up later legitimate progression or cause other problems (like the silver gauntlets immediately warping him to desert colossus for a cutscene).

is this the long awaited top left guy for now?
I watched the 3:34:29 before the commentated demonstration and it was a trip that got even crazier after knowing what was going on haha.
What about NES Metroid? That's a great NES game.
Record for worst dampe in a record run
Unreal
it's amazing how many splits got messed up and still wr
Congrats on your sub 3:30 in 3 days, you deserve it more than anyone!
I hadn’t even finished watching the last run. Good on yea man. I discovered you back when you achieved the first sub 4 hour run and have been hooked on you and speed running in general ever since
3,000,000 bits for a pb, huh?
It seems to have brought some motivation
how much is that in real money?
Brandon Job about 30 Grand
..cool..
@@captainhouse8306 imagine bro
1:48:37 Link rolls his eyes at Sheik teaching him Requiem
ZFG's link when he knows there's a cutscene coming

ZFG is undisputedly the GOAT. You went real fast this run, son.
Yeah dawg his routing is totes goats
Legend! You’re the best ZFG
Wtf I didn't even finish watching the previous run yet

Welcome back to PBs every week. You da goat ZFG
NO CHAT zfgMad
No Chat. PepeHands
the chat version is uploaded later or you can watch the twitch vod, but its way better without chat imo
Congratulations Zfg! (EDIT: No Chat, zfgMad)
No Vibruto, No Bell, ZFG, What the Hell
@@ShonkySquad this should be tattooed on his forehead
Just for the sheer absurdity of this run, it needs to be at a GDQ. Also, ZFG's mastery of the ridiculously hard tricks deserves so much more recognition.
this run dies so many time and the srms if you mess them up that's like half an hour of time lost. it is almost guaranteed to go horribly sideways.

Holy crap. I’ve just been watching your videos all day after getting into Randomizers and Speedruns and this happens. Amazing. Congrats dude!
i never even finished watching the last record and you already set a new one
I'm not saying I'm as good as ZFG or even a speedrunner at all, but I can say that he and I both did slingshot mini game 2 & 1/2 hours in.
Has ZFG ever Considered getting a heart beat monitor so we can see when his heart is really pounding
90% of the time heart rate monitors being used by speed runners are fake
@@Luuute oh really? I didnt know that
Crazy how far this game has come, can't believe the progress over just this past year, sub 3:30 in sight?
Sum of best is 3:20, so probably super soon, especally with how new the run is.
I have no idea what a realistic time is for this route. Has he said?
He lost five minutes to Dampe so it can easily go five minutes lower.
It's been fun watching OoT get to this point, really fun run to watch and incredibly impressive to see performed! keep it up
congrats man im always happy to see the progress you make and I wish you luck in your continued destruction of records in this wonderful game
“Where We Droppin’?” at 3:10:06
No bonus asschest is really bringing in a hefty amount of pain.
Ah damn, this man's gonna get sub 3:30 before the weekend ends
Only if Dampe permits
16:00 is terrifying lol
Why do I always expect these to open with "Welcome to the WR run, here we go"
FIVE MINUTES to dampe and still WR? holy moly :eyes:
Good job, we have officially made Oot a wonkier speedrun game than DK64. Insane wr.
Honestly, when you show the graph vs best splits at the end, it's really impressive! Apart from Dampe that makes a huge bump, the rest is quite linear, no gigantic timeloss, that's great
Did you ever get the 3 million bits?
Saw it live, Almost sub 3:30 with 13th try Dampe is legendary! Congratulations 🍾🎉
Dampe had to stop you from becoming too powerful
I was just done watching the previous record, well done!
I like how in Dogongo's Cavern the glitched blue tunic looks greenish, almost like the Kokiri tunic.
The SRMs are always jarring to me. It's incredible a human can perform this so precisely.
Lol I was a minute late to catching this live. These runs are amazing.
All these “is sub 3:30 possible” “3:30 is real” comments. The real question is whether sub 3:20 is possible.
Hello I like that you beat the game so fast
Inching ever closer to sub 3:30. This is awesome to watch.
This is why I love OoT runs; I take several months off from watching, and the whole run changes in the meanwhile. It's amazing to see how much the game can be broken, it's almost surprising now that anything ever worked the way it was intended.
good speedrun zfg i eagerly await the god run in this category

These runs always amazed me
I can save 12 minutes later by watching this 3 hour version now instead of the highlights.
1:41:37 This last ocarina game's song actually looks and sounds like it fits pretty well.
Can someone please explain to me what's happening with that bomchu glitch at 13:00?
BACK AT IT AGAINNNNN
It's Dampe's game, we're just running it
Feels like Spirit Temple is done in like 30 really tiny segments
Cool to see entrance randomizer mod implemented in a speed run! ;-)
This run has changed so much in 2 years
I knew the king wud return and more fearsome than ever - long live the true king of OOT
What a (cool) strange sequence that is after Dampe: using Farore’s Wind somewhere you’re not supposed with a button you’re not supposed to, warping to bottom of the well for some reason, getting caught by the wall master and getting thrown into the barinade fight. Like, what??
Good job. You went fast.
Show feet when below 3:30?
Pogs raining from the sky.
Imagine if this ends up being THE route, and years from now, the run is so optimized that you have to YOLO every warp with no setup.
First Words in this Vid: "The one who said hell give 3 MIllion Bits if i PB?"
Jokes on you, lad
I cant believe we're gonna see sub-3:30 in our lifetimes
Wait is this two PB/WR’s in a row? Wow!
12:00 through 15:30 ... what the hell? How did someone even figure that out?
"Someone said they'd give me 3 million bits if i PB'd."
The title of the video: 👁👄👁
Wow 13th try Dampe is unfortunate
Harry Potter: Hey, I'm a wizard!
Link: Hold my mirror shield
anyone know what he uses for his input display?
Thankyou for no annoying chat on screen.
would be cool if you could wait a bit until next WR so i can finish watching this video thanks
11:10 thought the water in the well turned into pee for a moment there.
But did he gift the 3million bits?
He’s a god, what else is there to say... sub 3:25 soon, watch out
sub 3:20 SOB is pretty poggers as well
Incredible run, can't believe Dampe was what it was but that's easy enough to improve on at least. Top left guy returns?
is it faster to get the wooden shield in kokiri forest? in the tas they are getting it from bottom of the well together with the hylian shield, btw does SRM also work in majoras mask?
faster because of the flying skull dude's cycle. you need him to be at the right spot to do the ocarina dive, and you have BARELY enough time to go to just one chest

BRUH, i love u man
Did you ever get those three million bits?
we need the 1st dampe new route wr
No chat, uh oh
Why These Never Have Chat?, I was there, now i can't prove it. FeelsBadMan
Jokes Aside, What a Nice Run!, i just hope First Try Dampé will be possible some day, that would be so Pog!
The Twitch Vod is always in the description with chat!
I was watching another vid and zfg mentioned a video got demonetized or blocked because there was bad language in the chat so I guess it's safer to leave it out
@SinisterMinister Okay Timmy
When you were there, but know one knows pepeHands
@SinisterMinister k
I mean, I guess he is the hero of time ...
When do you get the 20 Deku Sticks upgrade? And the 30 Deku Nuts upgrade?
They're not part of the category, since they get overridden by the next size up anyway. Same deal as why he doesn't need to get all the trading quest items, or Giant's Knife.
Only the highest upgrades are required to come from source, so I get the 20 stick and 30 nut upgrades from the glitched items in zoras river, then get the 30 stick and 40 nut upgrades from the scrubs that sell them later on.
How long until that sub 3.5??
This category is so hard now would anyone else ever want to run this?
Definitely not Clint lol
But to be real I think glitchymon also runs it
Damn you Dampe !
man the wrong warps in this astound me.
So Link is a Jedi now?
When was this PB made?
Even with all this crazy shit Dampe is still routed 2 hours into the run.
zfg1 cheats his way to another PB FeelsOkeyMan
Chat was great 👍
unbelievable
bruh i literally just finished the reccy from 2 days ago pepehands
either way gratz dude. nothing but respect for the grind. Only thing I don't like about this is no chat :(
I swear ZFG has usurped Miyamoto himself as the absolute God of this game.
Hey so I wasn't paying attention at 14:41 wtf happened haha

@@Tuxfanturnip gotcha thank you for the deets. Much appreciated
Zfg is about to beat clint stevens pb by an hour
Amazing
It should be legal to subtract Dampe time from any speed run attempt. It would promote speed runs in this category in general.
dampe is a part of the run, you might not like him but until there's a way to circumvent him (which will probably be never) he is a part of the run
No.
