Hope you enjoy the video, this was easily my longest commentated speedrun ever, so enjoy 3 hours of straight speedrun tech and glitch breakdowns!
(Also mini correction: At 2:28 when I said 28, I meant to say 18 units of speed)
Love your content

"rediscovered" is another word for stealing credit.
So in my experience when playing the randomizer the auction house is in such a way that when you leave and re-enter the likelihood of it showing the same item again is higher than a different one. That being said you can kind of mess with that by entering the room talking to the auctioneer declining leave the room then re-enter and do the auction. This should change the item more often than not.
Epilepsy Warning every time link prepares for the super swim thing
If i had a dollar for every time Linkus explained Manual Super Swim i would probably have a fortune, which isnt bad, but very interesting.
I enjoy explaining most speedrun tricks in this game, but MSS is something I wish would just go away at this point LMAO
@@Linkus7 Your explanations are top notch 🔥
@@Linkus7 it's iconic at this point. If you don't do it then we riot.
It’s linkus’s “imagine you’re waiting for a bus”
ACTUALLY interesting
speedruns never stop being funny. "I ripped the souls out of these slime creatures, then pushed all but one of them into the corner of walls in such a way that they get sent miles away using gaps in reality, and i do the same to the last one but count _precisely_ when its body dissipates into the aether so that i can position myself to get crushed and swallowed by this tree. This little maneuver saved us about two minutes!"

I LOVE learning random trivia about childhood games I thought I knew by heart.
Heres one I love : Phantom Hourglass
If you leave the phantom ship without taking the heart piece ; you will receive a letter from the devs saying : Haven't you forget something ?
Shame you can't revisit the ship to collect the rupoors if you missed them
This type of video is definitely one of the greatest resources for getting into wind waker speedrunning.
It also is just very entertaining to watch Linkus be such a monster at this game that he can perform the speedrun while explaining the nittygritty of all the crazy strategies.
Love how Linkus is so inside the Zone during the entirety of the video to the point that twitch chat is nonexistant and that makes this feel like a separate video of it's own rather than an edited VOD. Now that's impressive (Still, the route showcased on this video is completely bonkers aaand it also serves as a proof that EVERY videogame is completely broken on their core, and given enough time 100% speedrunning evolves into super-complex, multi-layered optimized routes that are mini-speedruns on their own which is completely insane to me) Simply perfect
I wasn't paying attention to your little box in the corner during the first half of the game and I assumed you were watching a recording of your own run, because doing a run with so many crazy tricks WHILE explaining them seemed insane to me. And then... I looked where your hands were. Holy shit, dude. You're incredible for explaining these so damn well AND speedrunning the game at the same time?! Incredible!
Listening to linkus explain the backwards swim is like listening to Bob Ross paint a canvas I love it every time
Watching the Live Stream was fun, thanks for cutting it down by a good amount and taking all the time to explain it.
One of my favorite games as a child. I'm glad it still has relevance after over 20 years
Nah don’t tell me it’s been that long 😭😭
Me: *thinking about going to bed
Linkus: *uploads video
*2hrs later
Me: *thinking about going to bed
I swear that is literaly whats happening to me this moment XD
Bruh😅
Way too accurate. Are you me? We are one?
this is happening to me right now
Just do what I do and watch it IN bed
I love that you showcase this game on the original released compared to your most luckiest run on the HD version of Wind Waker. It’s interesting how some strategies were way ahead and some were awesome to be showcased. Thank you Linkus7 and your content is so good.
Thanks for explaining how the swimming glitch worked, I saw it in and animation for speed runs and always wondered how it worked.
2:21:45 There's also the fact that all of these Treasure Chests are still in the international releases, so you'd still have to get them anyway for 100%
These sunken chest only contain rupees on the international releases, so they are not required to fish up for 100%. It's a combination of the different heart piece locations (mainly savage labyrinth) and text that makes JP a lot faster than US or PAL. Also, you have to visit all these islands for other reasons as well, so adding one chest to salvage is far from bad.
I had a long drive today and this perfectly matched the time.
I’ve watched enough Linkus speedruns to see the game in my minds eye while the audio played :)
It's 2024 and Linkus is still explaining super swimming. Life is good.
3 HOUR SPEEDRUN EXPLAINED??? FROM THE HITMAN COWBOY HIMSELF??? HYPE
I'm sure other people have done this but your my favorite but still what a flex, speed running a game while talking about every detail about how to speed run the game, that proves you know what your doing and I'm pretty sure you have two brains.
Linkus is so cute when he explains stuff, he looks so passionate it's absolutely adorable :D ♥
finally another long form video, i dont know how well they do on your channel, but i really enjoy them!
I think this is the first time I've ever seen you do the MSS without pause buffering and I was not expecting it
LOVED this video. You're so good at explaining speedrunning glitches and strategies in a way that casual players can understand!
59:11
"And I randomly splooshed in place here"
Same brother, same.
This video right here is PrimeTime Linkus7, Great fucking job brother. Literally make some popcorn and just watch.
The endurance it takes to do a run like this while explaining it and being in front of a live audience is impressive, good job Linkus!!
Linkus is so great at explaining what’s happening and the editing was clean
My favorite part of this video was hearing about MSS - I just kept replaying that segment for two hours then called it a day. Keep it up!
The guy that “rediscovered” that skip defiantly seen the previous one haha he had too, great story tho that’s very interesting It’s crazy that people were on this grind back then, we live in a cool time haha. Love your commentary and how you’ve explained things throughout the video great video man!
Back to back Linkus uploads that's epic
Lets goo I've been waiting for this video since it was the first linkus live stream i ever caught it was cool nothing my name as chat passes was such a fun experience 100% recommend hanging out in a linkus live stream if you've never caught one
Linkus accidentally using Grandma's fairy absolutely killed me for all imaginable reasons.
That barrier skip setup sounds like someone describing a fake speedun trick lol
"Like yeah, next you spin around a couple times and drop a frame perfect bomb. It's totally real guys. You gotta believe me"
Pretty dang fun to watch someone speed run while giving clear explanations that are easy to understand
Thanks!
Wind Waker is my favorite Zelda game! Linkus is the GOAT too. love the pronunciation of BomB.
In general; 100% speedruns are too much for me, even just to watch. However, there are some games that, no matter how long they are; I always enjoy watching them the whole way through. OoT and WW are the main two of those games. I don't keep up with the scene, so whenever I get to see one again, a bunch of stuff about the run has changed, and it's always a delight! I still remember the day Barrier Skip was first accomplished, then when it was first replicated and this game was blown wide open! WW will always be one of my favourite games to watch speedruns in, whether it's 100% or not; it's just such a charming game!
I like the sentence "The old methods used to involve a glitch called memory corruption, but nowadays, we use a bomb."
1:36:27 linkus explains how to blow the perfect bubble in windawaker 😂😂😂
I was just wondering the other day why Linkus hadn't uploaded to main in over a month. Guess I know now lmao time to grab popcorn and dig into the newest feature
Learned so much about my favorite games in this run. Great job as always!
I love the music in the beginning Its from zelda spirit tracks if you in the train
Linkus spoiling us with back to back uploads
I've never broken the armor before, I've always assumed you HAD to take it off
WW potato code is what makes it such an amazing game, one of the most entertaining LoZ speedruns.
this is incredible, two hour linkus commentary!
Drinking game: take a shot every time Linkus says "storage"
Manual super swim is basically made in heaven, f*ck yeah
1:38:15 oh god that wasn't a joke. I thought you were going to "fail" and then just do a different clip but nope that was insane
2 and a half hours of linkus wind waker, holy moly im pagging!
I was concerned when I saw the length of the video but nah it's worth it
Manual Super Swim is the same kind of mechanic that Source Engine Speed Runners use. Valve said "No Bunny Hopping to go Fast. We will subtract your speed if you go too fast."
So, players say, "OK. We Bunny Hop, backwards."
And when the player goes fast, the game says, "MORE Negative speed." But, since the player is going backwards fast, it's MORE Backwards FAST Time. This trick is known as ABH.
At least I think I got the description of what is going on, correct.
Pretty much, the game does intentionally add 3 units of negative speed to slow you down when you turn around, so we ONLY do that action in the water to build speed.
I'm surprised filling out the map tiles isn't required for 100%. You'd imagine that would be the case.
2:15:38 was my favourite line.
1:04:56
*talks about bridge skip*
Not very relatable
*mistimes bomb throw*
Suddenly very relatable
i fell asleep during this vodep and your voice was in my dreams... it was... weirldy nice
If I was a giant flaming murder machine and a small blonde foreign child walked into my room saying. "So now that we got some down time-" I would pray for my life.
So you get the sword on the cut scene... what happens if you try to get the sword of the off-set island when you already have it?
I would love to see these speedrun Showcase on other Zelda games as well👍
This guy is the gamer equivalent of Batman.
Hey i speedrun majoras mask glitchless. I dont do gliches for a reason, the routing is VERY COMPLICATED. Its nice that you can put gliches like maual super slide into words LIVE is cool. Keep it up
Also for those wondering
I speedrun majoras mask 3d for nintendo 3ds
The catagory i do is 100 glichless because it is the most fun in my opinion
My best time is 6 hours 32 minutes
Good luck on your speedrun!
My first time being this early! :0
Quality content/commentary as always!
Seeing linkus making advertisment for shaving products is seeing a vergin advertising condoms 😂😂😂
Watched all the way through after a few days.
you are awesome dude! love your content
that first glitch had to have killed your thumbs
Full stream somewhere?
How can you commentate a 5 hour run in 2 1/2 hours?
"Well, we are now past the 4 minuet intro cutscene" 🤣
So you're telling us at the start of the video that Sploosh Kaboom used to kill runs 80% of the time almost an hour in, but 3 hours 15 in, that medli-less setup doesn't?? Wind Waker runners are goats, all of them, its nuts!
No for super swim his speed does not increase exponentially it increases linearly because you are only adding -3
Epilepsy% with the swimming
this makes me wanna get a wii u and play this game casually
Love these videos !!
I'm just here for the PAUSA
I love this game
I like how there aren't five consecutive minutes without a glitch... 😂
I've watched a ton of 100% speed runs, but yeah, I've got 3 hours to watch an explanation 😅
1:58:25 I thought international TWW's triforce charts were bad (especially compared to HD), but Japanese TWW's triforce charts are a new low
Every time Linkus explains something new about the Japanese version I get more horrified.
I think i've watched something like 400hrs of 100% but I am still watching this, kinda strange when he assumes only someone that has only seen an any% would watch it :P
Remind me to watch this in 2 days
2:13:24 hi me from six days in the past
7:07 I wish I could get hired that quickly... 😢
It’s always surprised me that 100% doesn’t require actually completing the map
But I do realize how awful that is to include 😅
egg
Linkus saw summoningsalt's movie he posted earlier and went
Bet
Is saving granma required?
Speeding run glitch game beautiful
what's this doing the hokey pokey madness to get through barrier. :v
Link breaks the world by pressing B twice.
“Alright we are now past the four minutes of cut scenes” already not fully commentated. Lol jk please make more videos.
Link doesn't actually gain speed exponentionally in reverse does he? It is linear, no?
omg it's tower of the pogs
Yeah, but you didn't get the Tingle statues
Grappling Hook only%
Tower of Pogs
th-cam.com/video/SFVsHAUt4Ik/w-d-xo.html spongebob right before he blows a bubble.
14:00 "I won't be continuing to kind of stop to explain things throughout this whole run [...]"
So--you aren't going to explain everything in a video titled "Speedrun Explained". Right, then.
Good video
a flashing lights warning would be nice
Anything's possible in a roll hack
Crazy how he can explain the whole speed run while doing said speed run
And got a decent time with it too
