I loved watching this guy's "Let's Play With Glitches" videos back in the day. If Swordless is returning to the scene I hope he'll start doing those again.
Everyone remember to turn the video quality to 240p to get the true N64 experience! Although seeing the textures aliasing in 1080p at 60fps is kind of cool in its own way.
Shame we dont get to hear Swordless' dry and withering commentary behind this run. Any time you sense a suboptimal input or RNG, imagine a sharp intake of breath and a bri'ish man whispering "okay then."
For a fun reimagining of this game, rapidly tap the right side of your cellphone to advance the video by 5-10 seconds and watch Link teleport around Hyrule, screaming
The guards actually function like this: if they see you on the ground for more than one frame you get caught. The phrase "on the ground" is crucial, because if you side hop frame perfectly, you're never on the ground for more than one frame, so you don't get caught.
It's following the category created by the community so you'd have to ask them. That being said, it's very easy to accidentally power crouch stab unintentionally so barring it in a speed run would invalidate so many runs. In casual game play you wouldn't slash at nothing to reset your damage just to make sure your couch stab is normal.
Power crouch stabbing is an exploit, not a glitch. The game automatically stores whatever damage value your last attack was into memory, and when you do a crouch stab, the game assigns that value to the attack. That's why it's allowed in glitchless😉
How about instead of a "swordless", we get an "adless" version? Fucking insane to stop two or three times per dungeon to force-skip a goddamn ad... on a *TAS*...
Kinda wish this was run on OOT3D, since it's prettier and still TAS-able. I get the nostalgia factor for running N64 but if you're not going to use glitches... 😕
Ocarina of time runs are horrible to watch… side jumps with link’s voice it’s impossible to watch more than 10 minutes. Hope to see a « sidejumpless category »lol

SwordlessLink... that's a name I hadn't heard in a very long time
one of my all time favorites since childhood! =‘)

My love for the glitchless TASes grows as I grow older, and I'm so happy to see more content from the Zelda series.

Holy shit it goes all the way to 2160p lol. 4K N64, exactly as God intended
I set it to 480 and it looked familiar
I know it's a joke but don't do this! UA-cam doesn't support 60fps under 720p anymore and OoT will microstutter when watching at 30fps!
God I miss Swordless. I hope he's doing well.
He also got another OoT glitchless TAS published earlier this year!
I loved watching his glitchy let's plays back when they came out. It's nice that he's back with his TASes.
Four minutes in and what does "Swordless" Link do? Get a sword. I feel duped.
Theres no duping in this category tho Kappa
this run puts into perspective just how much padding the cutscenes in this game provides.
seriously. it took forever to beat. Close to 3 weeks for me
Its an rpg tbf
I don't think you're using the word "padding" right.
@@disfiguringthegoddess1102Zelda games are Action-Adventure games, not RPG.
The screams at 1:07:35 are from the surprise of how ungodly fast Link is moving.
Oh those wonderful 320x200 resolution pixels brings back memories
Yay Swordless Link again! More TAS for OoT??
This is probably a good example for people who are new to speedrun and would like to speedrun this game themselves
This is an amazing song! 3.5 hours too!
Well I wasn't going to sleep tonight anyway
Shoutout to EZGames69 who processed this and made good use of the tunnel to the sword for the text elements to display. Now back to the run.
Swordless Link? Now that is a name I've not heard in a long time... a long time...

Let the arguments begin!
Who else is watching this video when all of sudden they start having a low battery on their computer?

@@Atylonisus as any man crossing hyrule would
so many cutscenes and dialogue!!
Swordless is still around?
The whole time I keep saying, "dude, WHAT!!"
'course I also have the UA-cam speed set to 1.75X...
Little boi Phantom Ganon
How i do the Backwards Running but being able to see where the Fuch I'm going.

Did the guards in the courtyard think you were a npc? Because you were just side jumping in their face lol
The guards actually function like this: if they see you on the ground for more than one frame you get caught. The phrase "on the ground" is crucial, because if you side hop frame perfectly, you're never on the ground for more than one frame, so you don't get caught.
Huh I was just playing this on my Nintendo switch right now. I was trying to look a a play through because I got stuck…
Sweet!
I wonder if theres a hopless category :( This is so nauseating to watch.
Let's gooooooo
I give @DannyB 5 months to replicate with his beat box
How'd he get past all the castle guards?!

How is glitched power crouch stabbing not a glitch?
I’m sure there a good explanation of why is viable for glitchless

Yeah, I almost don't see people running the 3D
There are several exploits only possible in the N64 version that are used in this run.

That's an awful option, but you're entitled to have your poor one.
