    Each "Zelda" game is a commitment, but these will take the longest for most players to beat. For this list, we’ll be delving into the history of Nintendo’s beloved fantasy series to see which entries take the longest to complete. We’re ranking them based on the length of each story, but we’ll also cover averages for completionist runs. Our list includes “The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword” (2011), “The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages” (2001), “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time” (1998), and more! Which “Zelda” game have you poured the most hours into? How about the one you’ve played the least? Let us know in the comments below.

      Me and my brother beat it in 21 hours and we are not speedrunners. Granted it was the hd version so maybe there are some differences but I dont see Why it would take 24+ hours considering me and him (both non experts) couldnt do it

    • @mageius
      @mageius ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @@subswithnovideos-oz4zo It's because the way the Twilight Princess community handles low% for the game and the HD version. Unlike a lot of Zelda game speedruns TP includes counting small keys, Boss Keys, Warps and a few other things when it comes to low% being the minimum amount of items possible to beat the game. Due to this there's a couple of small keys that can be skipped by using the fact that in the original version of the game Link's when picking up an item for the first time when that text box appears is missing 1 frame so it's possible for the ability to slowly clip in to a few walls and doors letting you skip a couple of things because he doesn't have any collision detection while in it by the maximum amount of movement gotten from this is very slow requiring at least a few hours and there's at least 2 of them in the run. If I recall at least 1 is like 4-5 hours and another is close to like 8ish hours because of how thick the object they are clipping through is.
      Yeah I know it's kinda a why would you type thing but the leaderboard is ranked by number of items collected first then time. There's actually a nice TH-cam video a top Zelda speedrunner did on it for 1 of the more speedrun focused channels if you want a more detailed explanation which is quite good on explaining it I'd actually recommend looking up if you're interested. As a speedrunner myself I can tell you though the category doesn't have many people actually run it because "yeah a lot of runners have that we know why but really type thought on it. Although you also gotta respect the few that decided to do a run because they felt like it."

    I think the biggest reason OOT took me so long was always the Water Temple. I like the temple, but at the same time I admit that because of how unbelievably huge the area is, I occasionally got mixed up in a lot of areas, the hardest for me was finding the last few locked doors after unlocking a lot of them.
    I say this cuz the other temples just felt more tame for me, the Shadow Temple for example, I was more than prepared to say it was gonna be more of a pain than the Water Temple, but I breezed through it surprisingly well.

      That’s arguably one of the easiest temples in future link’s timeline. It’s so creepy and cool looking, I love the music, the monsters, the ghost ship and you guessed it! BONGO BONGO ✋ 🤚 🥁
      It’s an amazing dungeon with a lot of lore about Hirule’s untold history, i think water temple or the fire temple are worst than the shadow temple any day of the week. The shadow temple is full of surprises and it keeps you guessing.
      Tbh all the temples feel like a hassle in the future timeline, specially the Forrest temple there’s a lot of back tracking. If I had to pick one I pick the spirit temple as my favorite is very straight forward and I love how you have to come back as a child to explore one half of it.

    With BOTW sequel coming, there are now two separate timelines.
    1.) the first one is the original and devastated one where King Rhoam made the same mistake by forsake technology as the Hyrulian ancestors did. Thus, Calamity Ganon takes control of all the 4 Devine Beasts & the Guardians, and the 4 champions are tragically killed. Link is rejuvenated 100 years later, help Zelda sealed Ganon away and became the hero of Hyrule.
    2.) After Zelda first awakening her power, Terrako is activated and travels back in time to the Hyrule before those dark times. Warning Zelda, Link, Impa and the champions the destruction Ganon will bring upon on her 17th birthday. Terrako summons Sidon, Rija, Teba and Yunobo to save the champions from fate. However the malice of the Calamity also went back in time to corrupted Terrako’s counterpart, and accelerate Gabon’s revival with Astor as it’s pawn. Ganon is sealed once more and the heroes from BOTW timeline went home.
    While Windwaker and Orchestra of Time I enjoyed playing when I was a kid, The Breath of the Wild series is my favorite Zelda games I enjoyed most.

    I have played through BOTW 3 times at no less than 100 hours a playthrough. But the Zelda I have spent most time on is Link to the Past. I have played through that game at least 20 times. It's my favorite Zelda game by far.

    What I would really like to see is a semi-linear Zelda game that has like over 10 dungeons and has twists and turns like Ocarina of Time but on steroids. And of course, a lot more locations in addition to the usual locations like Hyrule Castle, Lost Woods, Death Mountain, Zora's Domain

      Actually, factoring in DLC and additions added with each version, it's gonna take waaay longer than 378 hrs. Getting everybody to 255, getting all badges for every character, unlocking all weapon skills, getting every fairy slot filled in My Fairy and upgrading the absolutely busted fairies to max stats, doing everything as both Ganon and the giant Cuckoo. It adds up.

    MojoPlays, I had bought Breath Of The Wild as a dlc bundle last year and began it on Feb.19, 2021. Just last month in May did I finish BOTW in it's full completionist-entirety on Master Mode as I had done the Normal Mode likewise in sort of a Speedrun completionist of just 2.5 months between Feb.19--May 2nd. Altogether, bringing my total logged time to a STAGGERING amount of 2,140 hours for BOTH modes!

    There really should have been an honorable mention for Zelda 1. If you try to play it blind and without any sort of guide, it could be one of, if not the, longest Zelda game. I've heard of people who grew up with it playing it on and off for literal years before being able to beat it. Gotta love some of that NES obtuse-style difficulty. XD
    You could probably do similar things with Castlevania 2 (Simon's Quest, not Belmont's Revenge) and Metroid 1.

    Of course Oracle of Ages is longer since it is a more puzzle-heavy game rather than action-oriented like Oracle of Seasons.
    On the other hand, I did not expect Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks both made it to the list, I thought they are short games but I think thats just me playing them over and over again, thats why I did not noticed how long they are because of enjoyment I feel whenever I played those games.
    Edit: I am more suprised Wind Waker made it higher to this list.

And then one time I went to play it and somehow deleted it. He was pissed to say the least. But I’ve gotten very good at the game. Beating it almost a dozen times, I can beat the main story of the game in about 24 hours on the nose. Last time I played it, I did the twilight hand/orb level in 15 minutes.
