This is easily one of the most pleasant things I've recently experienced on UA-cam. The kindness constantly coming from Pheenoh, his exceptional execution, the length of the video, the quality of the game and its music, just everything is so wonderful. Will continue to watch this video as frequently as I have been as a happy place, a way to fill the silence behind doing work, and something to go to sleep to. I look forward to Pheenoh's next run!
Everyone's mentioning the "Thank You"s, but what's funniest to me is the audible gasp at 1:14:30. He's played this game an unknowable amount of times, but the game still found a way to surprise him.
Oh the memories! I’ve been watching a bunch of zelda GDQ runs lately and this run fills me with the most nostalgia. I’d have to say TP is my favourite zelda game.
TheDoctorGnome That also happened to me 😂😂. it took me 2 years to get to there and at that point i stopped playing for like a year. Then another year later beat the game😂😂😂😂
for me it took me like 5 min, but I can understand that part being difficult. What it took me so long was finding the parts of the triforce for the first time in Wind Waker, never feel so frustrated.
I didn't have trouble with that, but I did have trouble at the prison cell in the first trip to Twilight. Couldn't figure out you had to dig out. Literally searched the jail cell for an hour before figuring it out and feeling like an idiot.
TP was my childhood game, I got it on the Wii when it came out on the Wii when I was 6, and I ended up beating it when I was 11. It took me exactly 128 hours over a course of 5 years to beat the game as a carefree kid, and seeing it so brutally destroyed makes me twitch in the best way.
TP is like a late birthday present to me, it was my favorite game ever and it still is, I heard about it when my dad was playing it, and then I asked to play it, and I was around 4 years old, I could never read anything, so I asked my dad to translate a lot, and I sill haven’t beat it XD
Hey I have pretty much the exact same experience! Started playing before I knew how to read. Probably spent 2 years in ordon alone. Then when I was older ended up making it to the water temple like 3 times and getting stuck. Finally ended up getting it on GameCube and beat it when I was 10. I've beat it a couple times on wii as well now. I'll never play another game that will shape my life the way TP has.
Why are people making fun of him for being polite? It bothers me when speedrunners don't thank their audience, especially when they go out of their way to wish them good luck.
I’ve never seen somebody as dedicated to something, this is my favourite game of all time, continue exploring Nintendo’s codes and doing runs as elaborated as this one!
Imagine what the prince would think if he knew Link was casually waving his fancy schmancy earring in front of the most dangerous evil to ever plague their world.
God I love this game. Easily the best story, storytelling, and world building in the series. Breath of the Wild's gameplay was good, but the story left MUCH to be desired.
Donald Trump Everyone has their own opinions on what is best and what isn’t. I personally think Twilight Princess is the best at storytelling, but all due respect to whoever doesn’t agree. You have the right to think something else is the best.
The story is excellent, IMO, but in terms of world building, Breath of the Wild is matched by NO other game in the franchise. That being said, TP definitely has the best looking dungeons, and with the most interesting mechanics and items. I do wish we got a bit more story surrounding the different areas in the game, particularly the actual function of the dungeons. OoT and Skyward Sword have the best dungeon stories.
1:33:33 Within a year, gymnast developed a way to super swim in RTA with no tools*... so I guess he accepted his own challenge. *Note he did this in Wind Waker HD. I'm not sure if "Pausa palooza" works in Twilight Princess HD.
I don't understand why, I mean no offense and all that it. But Twilight Princess is quite old at this point and is already on three different consoles. A virtual console, sure. I can understand that. But not an actual port with the CD and what not.
I seem to remember that it was one of the last big releases for the Gamecube and came out so late in that console's "lifespan" that many people were concerned that it wasn't going to be released on the Gamecube at all.
I remember the boss key skip for Morpheel being a lot more dangerous in SD---you had to climb up some vines and get a bomb to explode you out of bounds, but not too far or you'd end up softlocking the game. Glad y'all found something safer!
I use these to go to sleep. At 48:16, someone has a donation that asks to get married. Did the person say yes? Did the second dono with the answer come up?! MY ANXIETY! HELP!
Something I discovered while riding Epona in the HD game is that if you use the right control stick (the one you use to move the camera) to steer, it is way easier. I don't know if this is commom knowledge or not, though...
"Yeah, to do superswimming... you need to alternate the analog stick back and forth 30 times a second, which isn't really humanly possible, unless someone wants to prove me wrong." How naive of you, Gymnast.
That must be what happened to me on my first ever playthrough of TP! He was saying if you hookshot Argarok too fast at the start of the first you can softlock. I softlocked in that fight and was just hanging onto the tail, unable to do anything with the boss just flying around for a few minute before I just restarted the system.
1:39:10 I always thought his mustache looks like tusks. :) bo is actually the walrus from links awakening! Compare the images side by side you will never unsee it.
I was always annoyed that those guys showed up at the end and killed all the opposition when you get Hyrule Castle’s boss key. Not only did I want to fight all of those enemies, but the people just disappear, there was no point to show them in the Castle.

Thank you
Mind if we find 5 more
lol holy shit this is bullying
Finally a speedrun where someone on the sofa actually explains so the runner can focus more.
The is A Link To The Past 100% run where the player doesn't talk at all
?
Gymnast is a fantastic Zelda speedrunner. I read your comment and already had a feeling it was him
So like Bonesaw's run of Jak and Daxter in 2016? Super focused runner there.
Watch the kingdom hearts 2 with bloodbiskit

Lep This run makes me want to get back into watching gdq again
Everyone's mentioning the "Thank You"s, but what's funniest to me is the audible gasp at 1:14:30. He's played this game an unknowable amount of times, but the game still found a way to surprise him.
Pheenoh is the nicest runner I've seen I really like his runs he does a great job explaining what's goin on imo
I can hear him now, replying to this comment: "Thank-you :)"
Steve K if you like his commentary watch the Kingdom hearts runs those are really good
@@MrNocturnOwl , zu
I love how pheenoh says thank you after every good luck
Cata Pomés Me Too
Pheenoh is most polite.
Pheenoh is indeed a gentleman and one of the coolest, most chill, and informative speedrunners of all time in my eyes 🙏🏼
Fantastic combination of technical prowess, explanations of what is going on, and personality. One of my favorite speed runs ever!
One of the best games of my childhood
Oh the memories! I’ve been watching a bunch of zelda GDQ runs lately and this run fills me with the most nostalgia. I’d have to say TP is my favourite zelda game.
I remember as a kid being stuck on the fishing to get the cat to come get the fish. I had no fucking idea what was going on and I gave up on it lel.
TheDoctorGnome That also happened to me 😂😂. it took me 2 years to get to there and at that point i stopped playing for like a year. Then another year later beat the game😂😂😂😂
Haha, the same thing happened to me. When I picked up the game again several years ago, experiencing anything past Ordon was sorta surreal.
for me it took me like 5 min, but I can understand that part being difficult. What it took me so long was finding the parts of the triforce for the first time in Wind Waker, never feel so frustrated.
I didn't have trouble with that, but I did have trouble at the prison cell in the first trip to Twilight. Couldn't figure out you had to dig out. Literally searched the jail cell for an hour before figuring it out and feeling like an idiot.
Carcosa That was hell. Those puzzles were so confusing lol
Dang, I didn't know I needed someone to propose to me in a Twilight Princess speedrun until now.
beautiful game, i remember back when i buyed it and went no sleep all night till 8-9am to nearly finish the game. great experience , great years
Thank you Pheenoh. Great run. Happy to see a speedrun of the LoZ with the best bosses
hey, looks, its me! 2,7,2022.
What a nice guy so polite..... this guy just became my favorite runner of the marathon (sorry for my eanglish)
u literally spelt every word right besides english
Shout out to guy on the right of the couch Hornlitz, he's a small youtuber i used to watch a lot. Amazing channel
TP was my childhood game, I got it on the Wii when it came out on the Wii when I was 6, and I ended up beating it when I was 11. It took me exactly 128 hours over a course of 5 years to beat the game as a carefree kid, and seeing it so brutally destroyed makes me twitch in the best way.
Same here. Minus the 128 hours, I don’t actually know how many hours but it was a lot.
TP is like a late birthday present to me, it was my favorite game ever and it still is, I heard about it when my dad was playing it, and then I asked to play it, and I was around 4 years old, I could never read anything, so I asked my dad to translate a lot, and I sill haven’t beat it XD

Childhood game? Was only 5-6 yrs ago.. are u even old enougg to be on youtube or twitch... lol
@@IpsyRS twilight princess came out over 16 years ago in 2006.
How did i get here
I fell asleep and woke up to this playing underneath me
This is one of the nicest runners I’ve ever seen. The world needs more people like that right about now.
What a wonderful runner to watch. Thank YOU Pheenoh!
Fell asleep right before this run (it was at 3:30), glad its uploaded haha.
my buddy used to play this game on the wii i remember coming over and watching him for hours playing this. such a nice memory :) and an awesome game
Fantastic run Pheenoh! "Thank you" for all your hard work!
Why are people making fun of him for being polite? It bothers me when speedrunners don't thank their audience, especially when they go out of their way to wish them good luck.
They’re donating
I agree with you. I don’t get it. Some people don’t appreciate manners I guess. Anyway, THANK YOU for the comment!
lol they arent making fun of him theyre complimenting him in their own donation. i think youre misinterpreting
I’ve never seen somebody as dedicated to something, this is my favourite game of all time, continue exploring Nintendo’s codes and doing runs as elaborated as this one!
Imagine what the prince would think if he knew Link was casually waving his fancy schmancy earring in front of the most dangerous evil to ever plague their world.

Hey there, pardner.
I think you misspelled "Wind Waker"
The story is excellent, IMO, but in terms of world building, Breath of the Wild is matched by NO other game in the franchise. That being said, TP definitely has the best looking dungeons, and with the most interesting mechanics and items. I do wish we got a bit more story surrounding the different areas in the game, particularly the actual function of the dungeons. OoT and Skyward Sword have the best dungeon stories.
pheenoh and gym are the most soothing players to watch, personality and gameplay-wise.
tom mccabe I couldn’t agree more.
2:53:49 "second best music in the game" The first being Malo Mart i presume
19:35 I love how right after the donation says "Here's a bag of rupees" Pheenoh instantly collects one in the game.
I HAVE NEEDED THIS FOR A LONG TIME NOW
One of the greatest in the series.
I bet Thanksgiving is one of Pheenoh's favorite holidays. lol
I randomly clicked in the middle of the video to understand this comment and he said it like 3 times in 10 seconds haha
The best part of Twilight Princess for me is not the look or gameplay but the sound. Its so distinctive and unique to the game and is so nostalgic.
This is my favourite Zelda Game
This is my least favorite 3D Zelda game!
Same :)
Me too!
Props to the runner and couch, plenty of good information to explain action intentions and some background lore - thanks.
Da 3:54:19
32:30 the hype is real
3:52:34 It's ok Ganon, I like the fishing rod too
43:24 that was so pure
Someone, somewhere in the world: Good luck.
Pheenoh: Thank you.
I grew up playing the wii version and this is disorientating
I love this game and it’s my favourite game series and I love to see the games done quick play it good luck pheenoh
Why are y'all trashing him for being polite? Mans just had a mama that raised him right.
Jordon Brewer YES
Or father. Mom could be lacking in this department
3:52:34 not the route we deserve but the route we need right now
I fell asleep while watching UA-cam and awoke at 6 am watching this
I know I'm a little late but Pheenoh you rock bro!!
Proposal through AGDQ donations. That’s a new one.
not really happened a few times already
Thank you for saying thank you
Damn i miss this game. Had a beatiful story and graphics
Good luck. We're all counting on you.
Good luck Pheenoh!
Jullianne De La Cruz “Thank you!” - Pheenoh
I love this game 🎮 ❤️
1:33:33 Within a year, gymnast developed a way to super swim in RTA with no tools*... so I guess he accepted his own challenge.
*Note he did this in Wind Waker HD. I'm not sure if "Pausa palooza" works in Twilight Princess HD.
PLEASE NINTENDO, PORT THIS GAME TO SWITCH!!!!
N O it doesnt need another port
I don't understand why, I mean no offense and all that it. But Twilight Princess is quite old at this point and is already on three different consoles. A virtual console, sure. I can understand that. But not an actual port with the CD and what not.
If i recall correctly, it came out on the same time on Wii and Gamecube, if not a year later, then ported to WiiU
Please please PLEASE
I seem to remember that it was one of the last big releases for the Gamecube and came out so late in that console's "lifespan" that many people were concerned that it wasn't going to be released on the Gamecube at all.
This runner is a good chap.
pheenoh is a very good and cool funny speedrunner that is nice and thankful
2:52:18 But first, let's talk about parallel universes. Kappa
Gymnast86 my favorite speedrunner too bad he is on couch this year.
though he will be submitting skyward sword (he has the current WR) and wind waker HD (guessing all dungeons) let's hope he gets in AGDQ
How do you know if he performs or not?
@@laineynae7943 There's a games list online for every GDQ! Gymnast is actually running Skyward Sword Any% for AGDQ 2021! Go check him out!
I remember the boss key skip for Morpheel being a lot more dangerous in SD---you had to climb up some vines and get a bomb to explode you out of bounds, but not too far or you'd end up softlocking the game. Glad y'all found something safer!
Also known as the "Thank you" run.
I have to say morpheel is probably my all time favourite zelda boss. Such a cool fight even although it’s not really a threat.
This is my favorite Zelda game
Congratulations
I use these to go to sleep. At 48:16, someone has a donation that asks to get married. Did the person say yes? Did the second dono with the answer come up?! MY ANXIETY! HELP!
I was wondering the same thing
i like this guy ^.^
pheenoh is a really chill dude :D
I’m sure Pheenoh would thank you for saying that.
Something I discovered while riding Epona in the HD game is that if you use the right control stick (the one you use to move the camera) to steer, it is way easier. I don't know if this is commom knowledge or not, though...
ive rewatched 5 times
Just woke up to this and I'm like "What in the actual heck? How did I even get here?"
"Yeah, to do superswimming... you need to alternate the analog stick back and forth 30 times a second, which isn't really humanly possible, unless someone wants to prove me wrong."
How naive of you, Gymnast.

19:35 Nice timed collecting of the rupeez
3:54:05 It's 2017 and this dude's still rocking a fedora.
Cool this was posted a day before my birthday last year :D
Ganon loves his fishing rods. Ganon in Majora's Fishing Hole confirmed.
thank you
The way he nods at the 2013 mofat mention, I love it
Can we get a thank you counter?
I had to rewatch the run, but I did it. Just look for my comment (if you can't find it let me know).
AJ Pynnonen whats the count?
ArmosAviator so whats the full count, cant seen to find it
OgienChomik It's 64, and you should be able to find it
He is a supreme gentleman like Eliott Roger
3: 04:51 my jaw dropped so hard it needs surgery to get it back in place
Dang I use to think the boomerang was one of the most useless items in this game
POV: you fell asleep listening to a video game related video and woke up to read this comment
THANK YOU
amazing run!
The timing at 19:34 is so good :D
2:50:07 That skip is way harder then it looks. it should have gotten appluad.
That must be what happened to me on my first ever playthrough of TP! He was saying if you hookshot Argarok too fast at the start of the first you can softlock. I softlocked in that fight and was just hanging onto the tail, unable to do anything with the boss just flying around for a few minute before I just restarted the system.
1:39:10 I always thought his mustache looks like tusks. :) bo is actually the walrus from links awakening! Compare the images side by side you will never unsee it.
That's a mustache?
I got stuck on the water temple the first time I played this. I ended up giving up on the game for about a year before finally beating it XD
Stormy Lemon I've never been stuck in any water temple for more than 5 minutes
2:19:55 Underrated donation.
Canica Lopez I highly doubt a rating system was generated for donations.
Nice Catch on the name at 1:12:39 GDQ
You know, this run would be a lot more optimised if Pheenoh recorded himself saying "Thank You" and played it back whenever a donation said Good Luck.
He actually saves 8 frames per Thank You by waiting for the announcer to finish his talking animation.
I was always annoyed that those guys showed up at the end and killed all the opposition when you get Hyrule Castle’s boss key. Not only did I want to fight all of those enemies, but the people just disappear, there was no point to show them in the Castle.
Love this game.
Just watched the entire run
Now its time do download cemu and enjoy TP :3
Twilight Princess is such a beautiful game. For me it's pretty close to OoT.
Gymnast is the best
1:28:17 - Something seems familiar about this section...
I 'm playing through this game once more, close to the Boss of the City in the Sky and theres 30 hours on my timer 😄😄
thankyou
The kids just being respectful man...
Wolflink breaks windows, roofes and burns down a house but at least kills some pink bugs...
