From a programming perspective, The cylindrical check seems more like a distance check than an actual wall you can't get past. That would mean that if link is more than a certain distance away from a specific x,y coordinate centered on the shrine of resurrection, the game will void him out. I think the only hope to skip it is to either set the flag earlier than expected (disabling the check), skip around the check every tick, or teleport directly into a loading zone outside the plateau (if even loaded and loading zones are processed first before the void out check). It's probably very unlikely that any of those will be found, but only time will tell
Technically true LMAO they always love the game more than regular fans but want to get to the best parts of it and I can't blame them. I couldn't figure out how to get off the plateau normally. Skyward sword also had a huge issue with misdirection. Speedrunners solve this issue by having practiced and planned routes.
@@ParagonPKC they don't want the best parts, they want the least parts. There's a skip in I think Ocarina of Time that involves holding a rupee for hours at a time to phase through a wall. That's hardly getting the best parts. Same with SM64 where they use the backwards long jump to basically skip right to the end, missing literally the entire game
I mean they don't explain the castle, but most of that is just making attack up food, grabbing a ton of good weapons, and throwing them all at the bosses very quickly. There is a cool Windblight instakill glitch that you don't see in the Terminal video, I'm not sure if it had been discovered yet.
Playing spyro 2 back on the ps1, i found a few jumps just slightly too far to reach so I tried a running jump, but messed up the timing amd did a double jump glitch. Of course my first thought was it was an intentional game design because I couldn't reach the jumps otherwise and not I was breaking the game
@@charlescannon2469 Ooh, ever do the "swimming in the air" glitch? You can do the "TROUBLE WITH THE TROLLEY, EH?" minigame super easily with it. Sadly, the Reignited trilogy seems to have removed that glitch :(
Especially in older games like Ocarina of Time where there’s several steps you have to memorise and then execute perfectly I just don’t understand how you can find them by just playing the game, even if you’re trying to find the glitches
9:44 to quote the great SuperButterBuns, “if you somehow find a way to launch yourself OVER the puzzle with nothing but a BANANA, the shaman man don’t care”
Now this is the kind of video that is 100% unique and something I have sought out. I have been looking for some sort of explanation for speedruns for a long time, and I have only found that info through streams and actual runs; however, I could never fully understand what was going on until now. I am so happy that you individuals are doing this, and I am excited for future videos!
So happy to see this channel doing so well despite appearing out of basically nowhere! I love ya Ant, excited to see what you and Linkus have in store for us here!
Being a game programmer, I don't think it's a big "trigger" cylinder surrounding the great plateau. But just code that checks flags, when link is an x amount away from the plateau. Great video Linus and picturing it as a big invisable cylinder isn't that bad.
You are actually 100% correct on that front! The game checks what Link's coordinates are, and if they exceed a specific value, it voids you out. These values are set to basically create a huge box around the Great Plateau, I went with the example of using an invisable cylinder because it makes it a lot easier to demonstrate and visualize, which was the over all idea with this video. To simplify the info but still keep all the info as accurate as possible. Glad you enjoyed the video, tons of more awesome content is to come! And fyi, yes my real name is Linus! Linus + Link = Linkus
And we finally, finally, have a way to skip the Great Plateau! All you need to do is perform an incredibly specific sequence of memory glitches, beat the game deathless, and then load in a new game and boom you'll have the paraglider! You'll still wanna get Stasis and Bombs of course but hey, now you can skip the rest
That's banned in any% though, as all main leaderboard categories requires that any glitch that persists between save files (like this glitch you are talking about) are removed before starting a run
This was a huge plot twist. when I read the inescapable fog I assumed it was about the korok forest, but It was still a great video, now I think I’m gonna try speed running this game
Now that people have figured out memory corruption with thunder arrows and dropping triple shot bows would It in theory be possible to door stasis launch yourself beneath the barrier collect items to perform a memory corruption then continue through the void out barriers around great plateau
It could possibly help for 100% runs or something, I don’t really get how this works, but I’ve watched a few videos about it, and as far as i can tell, it takes some time to set up and get the items, and the glitch is also not 100% reliable. Also, in terms of speed running any percent, this would be way slower than actually doing the great plateau. It’s still a good idea i think tho
I would guess that the way the tutorial Plateau is implemented is the same as the Divine Beasts. It's pretty much a different world, separated from the rest of the map, with Hyrule rendered just as background. The bounding cylinder might not even be a collider, but a direct comparison of the horizontal distance from Link's position the world origin against a hard coded limit distance.
Well theres an issue though, theres no map reload to loar yhe other map Ah wait, would the cutscene ypu get with the kinf be the reload? Or theres actually no reload and the game checks if you have the paraglider item
Oh my god... this reminded me of "watch for rolling rocks in 0-5 A presses". even i don't know anything about zelda, it was fun and entertaining to watch! amazing work! (i saw all your videos and subscribed)
I spent the whole video marveling at how much the narrator sounded like Linkus before it was finally spelled out in the outro. Now that my dumb ass is caught up, I'm really excited that Linkus has a channel devoted to short-form documentary stuff like this.
@@comixs-inc.7994 yeah, he's kind of like youtubers covering traditional sports: good enough to impress, inspire and teach, but not Olympics level good.
Really cool video! The only way I can think to improve it would be if you showed a clip of Link voiding out miles from the great plateau, to convey just how big the pre-paraglider void is. For anyone unaware, people have discovered how to wrong warp. You can load a brand new save file, and start inside a random shrine far from the plateau. After grabbing the spirit orb and leaving, Link takes a few steps then immediately collapses to the ground with a "Euuaaaaaaa!". It's pretty funny to watch. After a lengthy load screen, back to the plateau. Nintendo really didn't want us to skip it.
I have always enjoyed speed running, but I have never understood it, this channel is amazing because it can simplify complex maneuvers, and generally make speed running a fun piece of entertainment, consumable by all audiences.
Wow, I was litterly just thinking about the plateau and if it was ever gonna be skipped the other day. Very high quality and great entertainment. Thx and keep it up
With the content coming out of the channel it makes me excited to be able to say I was hear from the beginning I’d like to thank mr smallant himself for that
Nintendo really love the 'put them in a large cylinder of invisible walls' method of keeping players where they're meant to be, huh. First the barrier in Wind Waker, now this
Damn link us I can tell this is going to be amazing and I can’t wait to be able to say I’ve been here since the start when this channel of yours and ants blows up :)
I always wondered if speed runners ever conquered The Great Plateau after all these years. Shame it still hasn't, but cool seeing tricks to make it faster
If we found Another way to do the moon jump on the great plateau we might be able to moon jump above the invisible barrier that surrounds the great plateau
I've never seen a group so dedicated to spend the least amount of time playing and gave as speedrunners, but at the same time I've never seen a group so dedicated to playing games as speedrunners.
Wait this is a new youtube channel? found one video today and it was so high quality i thought this was a channel with lots of videos and I was so excited to watch them all, only to see there are only 2 videos haha. guess I will have to patiently wait for more
Ah, yes, the Temple of Time tree launch. AKA the "What in the name of Hylia". And if it's _not_ known as that, it _should_ be. Even though mechanically it's probably the least complicated part of Plateau.
Such a great game. I have no interest in speed running or figuring out ways to break the game myself, but it is so interesting when presented this way with explanation and footage. It's awesome that the invisible circle around the great plateau is still unbeaten. How cool will it be when it is though? So cool.
I don't remember whos video it was, but the best advice I got from youtube video regarding bil is that it works best when facing one of the cardinal firections
@@MysteryMouseketool yeah, its only ever worked for me facing a cardinal direction. the square bomb always spawns with it corners oriented the same way, and that affects the success of the launch
It‘s actually quite frustrating to see how close we have been to skipping the GP Barrier. The barrier is tied to Link, so as long as you have control over him, it exists. However, there are ways to „softlock“ the game, making you unable to control Link. The problem is though that you can‘t do anything from there. Another possible way to skip the barrier would be to somehow deactivate auto-saves. With a complicated setup iLegendofLinkk found using cheats to deactivate auto-saves, it‘s actually possible to transfer items over to another save-file, which would skip the great plateau entirely.
I remember that through apparatus storage you can indeed start a file with all the neccesary items to skip great pleateau but that's against any% rules. Since all glitches that persist through save files are not allowed. Runs have to start from a clean file
Other 3D Zelda: Only somewhat open world, tutorials skipped by runners.
Breath of the Wild: 99% open, no way to skip tutorial.
MM 1st cycle: am I a joke to you?
@@b.clarenc9517 Yes. (also skipped now)
Yeah that's the point of the video ....
Plataeu Skip is the new Barrier Skip.
people were trying to get off the plateau long before the game released. That E3 demo that was also at Gamestops and stuff limited you to only the plateau and people wanted to see more of the game
If anything that's probably WHY the shield around the Great Plateau is so strong and wide. Because they didn't want people splorin.
The fact that the demo protection is also in the final game is pretty neat
Ironic, isn't it? That the Zelda game that is characterized for being the most open-ended, and having the least progression checks, is the only one we haven't figured out how to skip the tutorial for.
Its kinda difficult because in the tutorial you gain the tools for the rest of the game, so it is 100% necessary
@@juandaviduribe8267 But you barely get any tools on the Great Plateau. You get them at hyrule castle.
@@Sam-nd2gm The sheika slate and the runes is basically the pillar for the open world. If you have those you can progress in any order you want.

I always wondered if speed runners ever conquered The Great Plateau after all these years. Shame it still hasn't, but cool seeing tricks to make it faster
welp i guess thats the "breath of the wild" then.
Yeah that "BIL" is EXTREMELY fun and helpful in a casual playthrough. Its my main method of traveling in the game now.
If I recall, raising the towers actually no longer needed in the any% category for breath of the Wild
already one of my fav channels
me thinking that the video is over when he says is imposible
Him: Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell not exacly
If we found Another way to do the moon jump on the great plateau we might be able to moon jump above the invisible barrier that surrounds the great plateau
2 videos and 20k subscribers holy crap dude congrats. Nice video too
The quality of these videos are incredible! Great work guys!
I’m gonna watch literally every video from this channel
I've never seen a group so dedicated to spend the least amount of time playing and gave as speedrunners, but at the same time I've never seen a group so dedicated to playing games as speedrunners.
Wait this is a new youtube channel? found one video today and it was so high quality i thought this was a channel with lots of videos and I was so excited to watch them all, only to see there are only 2 videos haha. guess I will have to patiently wait for more
Ah, yes, the Temple of Time tree launch. AKA the "What in the name of Hylia".
And if it's _not_ known as that, it _should_ be. Even though mechanically it's probably the least complicated part of Plateau.

Nice to know more information about BOTW speedruns than just "GO 2 Ganon right away"
this is gonna be a great series/channel keep it up
Such a great game. I have no interest in speed running or figuring out ways to break the game myself, but it is so interesting when presented this way with explanation and footage. It's awesome that the invisible circle around the great plateau is still unbeaten. How cool will it be when it is though? So cool.
10:17 Better known as the "WHAT IN THE NAME OF HYLIA?!" trick because of reasons every BOTW speedrunner fan should know at this point.
This explained all the glitches so well I'm confident that I can do them now
That one terminal montage video now makes much more sense!
Linkus saying the BIL is pretty complicated gives me a sense of satisfaction; I spent over 3 hours learning how to boomy zoomy
I don't remember whos video it was, but the best advice I got from youtube video regarding bil is that it works best when facing one of the cardinal firections
@@MysteryMouseketool yeah, its only ever worked for me facing a cardinal direction. the square bomb always spawns with it corners oriented the same way, and that affects the success of the launch
Just pull out the bow 200 times to unload the void barrier. Piece of cake
This channel looks cool ngl. I love watching speedrunning stuff.
How does this guy have more subscribers in a week then most youtubers, with good editing skills, have in years?
Well this aged well, the platue is now skippable with new game+
It‘s actually quite frustrating to see how close we have been to skipping the GP Barrier. The barrier is tied to Link, so as long as you have control over him, it exists. However, there are ways to „softlock“ the game, making you unable to control Link. The problem is though that you can‘t do anything from there.
Another possible way to skip the barrier would be to somehow deactivate auto-saves. With a complicated setup iLegendofLinkk found using cheats to deactivate auto-saves, it‘s actually possible to transfer items over to another save-file, which would skip the great plateau entirely.
I remember that through apparatus storage you can indeed start a file with all the neccesary items to skip great pleateau but that's against any% rules. Since all glitches that persist through save files are not allowed. Runs have to start from a clean file
Riding that tree like a rocket might be one of the coolest things I've seen in this game that just seems so obvious now. I must try that later.
I love this channel so much
