They really did get every zelda intro into this game. Being locked up in prison and meeting Tri is a reference to the start of Twilight princess, meeting Midna in the prison cell
I can't wait until someone figures out how few echoes it takes to complete this game. It'd be so cool to see how you'd do things with just beds or something
For non sidequest, you could probably do it with under 15. Some are forced. And the bed will probably be the most used for a lot of people. It was for me.
So many of the random things in this game feel like “royalty free zelda”. Like for most of the game, ganon is just called the “blue guy”, Link has the “sword of might”, and i think the triforce is called the “prime energy” or some shit.
Yeah, for the past few games, the Zelda series has tiptoed around naming things what they're called. (Although that isn't the Master Sword, so calling it the Sword of Might makes plenty of sense.)
There actaully are story reasons for all of those. Prime energy apparently is in fact a mathematics pun for reasons I won't mention as they're spoilers XD though like Draezeth said the Sword of Might has no relation to the Master Sword
@@josephineclaire6892 I am not talking about the boss doors. To get to the Gerudo dungeon for example you have to do a pretty lengthy fetch quest to reach the main rift which you can't even access without a cutscene first

Explanation: Smant set his switch time to Australia, and because that’s on the other side of the world, when he went on the Eshop it was available yesterday
@@aarne602this is real,but it wasn’t explained great. You have to specifically buy a copy in one of those eShops. So if you have a switch with a Japanese account, for example, you could buy the game on the Japanese account through the Japanese eShop and play it early.
"you need to talk to the rock" has become an inside joke in my family. Only one of my siblings didn't get bind, until someone gave the advice "talk to the rock"
Smant 2024 - "My ropes are dangerous" "I have infinite rope" " Okay start shooting ropes" "Finish him off, shoot those ropes"... "Yeah I showed him the ropes"
13:10 Peahats are one of my favorite echoes to just set loose and let clean up mobs. So glad I got it early. Will probably be replaced by like the Wizrobes and other 5 cost stuff (once I have 5 triangles to spend on echoes), but... Peahats and Spear Moblins have served me well through the first 3 dungeons.
this game did something very similar to splatoon 3 with its intro: you start very powerful, setting off to fight past some fairly easy enemies, eventually facing off against the final boss from previous games. this boss is very easy, and the game only really starts afterwards.
It's interesting how Zelda and the king call Link "the swordsman in green" and Ganon "fell beast". This implies Zelda and the rest of Hyrule don't know Link nor even Ganon. In every Zelda game where Ganon existed, the royal family at least knew about him before meeting Link. But this time, Ganon is completely foreign to them. Just Link and Ganon seem to know each other which is very interesting because now I want to know the backstory between them if Hyrule and Zelda aren't even involved here. This suggests that Ganon kidnapped Zelda (without knowing her) just as a bait trap to get Link to walk up to Ganon so he can end Link. You clearly notice this from his laughter when he dies. This Ganon is a genius.
Gotta love how they named the king’s two helper Left and Right, but they put them on the wrong sides of the room. Maybe they’re based on the king’s perspective, but still funny at first glance.
Heyyy it's probably because the game just came out so there's more pressure to immediately release a new video, but I'm loving the 7:30pm AEST, normally no videos come out at a good time over here
5:06 He sounds like Kronk here Also, 10:57 there are multiple slime enemies in the series, chu-chus are usually the ones in the 3D games like WW and BotW, and zols are the ones in the top-down games. There are exceptions, like the Minish Cap, which has chu-chus despite being top-down.
Haven’t watched vids for a little while but Smant is looking good, idk if it’s new camera angle or smth but it defs caught my eye. Hope it isn’t an overstep, but I gotta pay the compliment when I genuinely have a ‘they’re attractive’ thought.
did anyone notice that the right and left hand of the king are called wright and lefte and while wright stands to the right of the king he is also standing west with our perspective and the same with lefte and east so you could see it as west right and left east
The more a game bends, the harder it is to actually break. When the dev intended method is literally just "do whatever you want, it'll probably work" its really hard to do stuff they didnt intend. Cheesing with beds? Intentional. Walking over an entire forest? Intentional. Scaling sheer cliff faces and walls? Intentional. Obtaining super strong echoes early? Intended.

14:20 POV that one unemployed friend trying to build a staircase with the furniture
I have a feeling speedruns of this game are gonna be so broken unless they fix that infinite height exploit
Until you realize that every dungeon in the game requires some fetch quests to enter the Still World segment with the dungeon
@@Youss___H I'm sure those boss doors are somehow clippable. We'll see in a couple of months/years :)
@@josephineclaire6892 I am not talking about the boss doors. To get to the Gerudo dungeon for example you have to do a pretty lengthy fetch quest to reach the main rift which you can't even access without a cutscene first
That infinite height thing requires a wall to be up against; if water isn't attached to any ground or walls or non-echoed water it will disappear.
even if they fix it there are probably 15 other infinite hight glitches

Finally! A Zelda game where you get to play as regular Link instead of Luigi Link! It’s truly a way to get all the confused gamers on board.
Wanted to watch this to see if it was worth getting and my God that beginning link section blew my mind. I need an entire game just like that.

Also ruining his own sleep! Did a playthrough, then stayed up like 6 hours more to edit a video about it!

The first 12 minutes alone have convinced me to buy this game. It looks so goddamn fun. Im really hoping they dont just update the bed stairs out.
After beating the game recently, I find it real cool to see how many people approach the game differently.
wow, and just as I was about to run out of old smant videos to binge through :D
So... we're just never getting the second half of this then huh
The Legend of Zelda: *Creative Mode*
A speedrun of this game would be incredible
