I think the reason why they made the exterior a fixed camera was so that you could always see death mountain in the background, they probably wanted players to see the ring of fire once you become adult.
@@MushroomKingdoom same!! For many many years back when I was a kid I could of sworn you could go around the side of the temple of time. I didn't know how and why I even had that memory many years ago but I could of sworn. Agreed 👍🏻
@@anakinskywalker8403 There are a *lot* of animations that should've been left in. Did you see the Disco Pants Guy in Castle Town with that ultra-smooth dancing-skipping motion he was doing? That was mind blowing to see and no one mentioned it in the stream or in the chat!!!
First time I played Twilight Princess and found out you could swing your sword while running I was amazed. Seeing it was intended in OOT but later cut sucks. Running and slicing is only on TP. 😭
@@Degdreams it is in those games, too. Skyward Sword also has some of these other features, like forward jump -> air slash (instead of dedicated jump slash)
@@andrew2393 But now that we have some decently powerful emulation it might be possible to just casually slip some of this back in in a mod, with no issue.
I've seen an old screenshot where Link had a full-body dynamic shadow instead of the little streaks coming out from his feet, but the Spaceworld recreation doesn't seem to have it. I wonder why.
I remember seeing that temple of time outside when the gigaleaks came out :') thank you to all responsible. It's beautiful and was like seeing new memories from my childhood.
The one thing that makes me a little sad is that I've never seen anyone go properly into the bottom left of the Temple of Time Exterior, I want to see the iron ball on the other side of the staircase which is much closer to the camera, the reflection on it is so good.
@@JepMZ That's kind of the point, in all the playthroughs of this area I have seen no-one ever swings the camera around enough - it's not in the "obvious" view so it's like a little visual secret. I have a GIF version of the area texture and the reflection on the "hidden" ball looks amazing, I would just really like to see how it looks in-game.
Yeah, I've seen it already. The ball is just to test the renderer's capabilities and is put out of bound since it's not meant to be part of the environment. And no one who played the demo all those decades ago mentioned there being a ball. The final version also have "out of bound borders that can't be seen ingame
@@JepMZ I'm not totally convinced the left ball can't be seen, at 0:43 the ball is only a little off-screen and Link is still away from the left fence and up from the bottom left square planter. Based on the way the camera follows Link in this version of the area, I feel like if you ran down to the bottom left, hugging the left fence and just above the planter you'd at least be able to see a bit of it. But again, that's my point because I haven't seen anyone go into that corner to know for sure. Besides, the other ball on the right hand side is obvious and clearly visible so anyone playing the demo decades ago would have seen that one at least.
People would bitch and moan about it because it wasn't like the original OoT. Hell I personally bitched and moaned so much about MM3D just because of the way the game SAVED! I think people would be happier if they just left it the way it is instead of trying to give it a FF7 Remake treatment.
@@Degdreams I was actually talking about a remake with bonus content (and some mechs) that we saw on OoT betas, but oh well, people would bitch about anything anyway just like it happened with the meh OoT and MM 3D they made, so...
@@southpaw117 I’m sure of that, but I’m saying the game ran with A and B being flipped for most of it’s early life. Imagine playing a game for a year or so, then two buttons get flipped. It must’ve felt weird for a while. In the end though, we’re the ones who thing using A to attack feels weird
@@getgle That's not accurate. The 64DD hadn't flopped by that point since it hadn't even been released yet. OoT released in Nov '98, the DD wouldn't release until over a year later. OoT did start development for the 64DD, but it was reworked back to a cartridge because a cartridge would read faster. The planned file size of the game was actually doubled over the course of development from 16MB to 32MB, not reduced. You may be confusing it with the "Ura Zelda" unfinished sequel to OoT. Ura Zelda was developed for the DD too, then the DD flopped and Ura Zelda was reworked into Master Quest for the Gamecube.
@@Hyperlingualism damn that's crazy I had no idea that cartridges were able to fit more space than the original disk drive. It's weird that they made the game look worse without a technical reason
@@getgle It was more about the data transfer speed than the file size. The 64DD definitely had more capacity, maxing out at 64MB, while standard 64 cartridges were usually between 4 and 32, maybe maxing out at 64 but at the time the 32MB OoT was the largest sized game released for the N64 at the time. The problem was the rate at which it could transfer that data to console was 1/10th of what a cartridge can do, but while it was only 1/10th of the maximum size of the CD-Roms of the same generation from the PS1, which can hold 600+MB. My opinion is that it was a middle ground that was too little too late.

basically
that makes total sense, and i always thought it looked scary. im kinda glad they did that
Beta temple of time on the outside looks so cool
That path outside the temple of time. I knew some how it exist, 20 years ago. Maybe I did see a pre release footage.
@@MushroomKingdoom same!! For many many years back when I was a kid I could of sworn you could go around the side of the temple of time. I didn't know how and why I even had that memory many years ago but I could of sworn. Agreed 👍🏻
I just Love the physics for Link's hat in this version it really adds so much more charm to Link's oot model!🤩
I noticed that too! Im curious why they didnt leave it in it really gives the game a more realistic feel!
They should have kept it in the game

Oh, those hat physics and visible wallet were neat little details.
10:42 holy shit my sides
I think the reason why so much cool shit was taken out of oot, was data and performance issues.
Yup. It was originally going to be on the 64DD but they took that out and had to cut back on content.
Ohhhhhh that might explain his cool hat 😅
@@andrew2393 But now that we have some decently powerful emulation it might be possible to just casually slip some of this back in in a mod, with no issue.
Imagine what the size of the dungeons would've been if OOT used that N64 DD expansion.
From the outside the 1997 Temple of Time looks enormous.
I've seen an old screenshot where Link had a full-body dynamic shadow instead of the little streaks coming out from his feet, but the Spaceworld recreation doesn't seem to have it. I wonder why.
i like that hat physics a TON better than vanilla oot
The foot steps and the echoes are spot on. Made me feel 8 again. Visuals are definitely super weird. Thanks for the video.

Sucks Nintendo wont take the original source codes and turn it into a new zelda game making a parrelle world of hyrule
WAS THAT THE TEMPLE OF 97?!?
Neat video! Thanks for uploading!
10:41 "I got a bomb bag" :D
*Proceeds to get crushed by giant rock*
The rocks always stop like, "Oh, excuse me...", then continue on.
Where can I get this ROM? OoT is one of my all time favorite games, and I would love to play this.
Man, there's so much good stuff to unpack in this version... Imagine if Nintendo made a OoT remake with all they took off of it back then.

I like the sword-swinging animation while running
This thing is sooo cool I swear
Thanks Dry
Captions: "the giggle leak"
wow that looks amazing for its time
Still looks hyper realistic!
I just now noticed how links hat has more physics and its not clipping into the shield. very similar to OOT 3DS
Just wanted to wish you a happy birthday
This is honestly better then the final release
Did all of this just recently get released?
is it just me or does the framerate and animations look slightly smoother, but inconsistently
_ZFG tries to kill horse_
Epona: how dare
5:58 Yeah, talk dirty to me ZeldaFreakGlitcha
I still wonder why Temple of Time Had a upside down Triforce in the Beta Versions. Even looks like Lorule Triforce from Zelda Between Worlds.
If they kept that design, the timeline of Zelda would be even more confusing lol
i wonder if theres any way to play this in a shitty filter like those old recordings of zelda 64
Some emulators have shitty CRT filters idk if there is an n64 emulator with it but I'd try that if you can find one
Why they cut that smooth hat animation? Looks cool
Bananatoaster said some things were taken out because it was suppose to be on the 64DD originally
Hylian racism 4Weird
TFW they patched DoT skip into the game
@4:50 British accent?
Beta Temple? More like Sigma Temple.
Jesus Christ...
Jesus Christ...
Link disappeared into the Temple's alleyway like Phantom Ganon 😳
Praise Rem_
I prefer Sigma Temple of Time
It looks like [[HYPERLINK BLOCKED]] dea,r little [[hylian]]
I wasn't born until May 16th, 1997...
Glad you young ones are playing what i got to experience when it was fresh in my teenage days. Times were a lot different back then.
Who TF asked
It was originally supposed to be CD-based. Then Nintendo changed their minds and stuck with cartridges.
BONK
10:43 *bonk*
5:56 me to my girlfriend:
temple has echo already.
Somebody tell me why the devs modeled a whole buttcrack on Young Link lmao!!!
LOL
It must’ve been annoying being one of the devs, and one day someone suggest B and A switch
Depending on how the code was written, it could have literally been a two second change.

@@itsdoomedjack9774 Ah, of course. In that respect it would be weird. I was focused solely on the coding aspect.
why did the game look better before
It was being developed for the N64 Disk Drive. When the N64DD flopped they reworked the game to fit a tiny cartridge.
