The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX TAS in 1:00:02.68 by Swordless Link [HD]

[hadri1a1]

I Hate the Walrus shit, it takes too much time to move his fat body from the way -_-

[Tomtelala]

@hadri1a1 Skipping him is one of the biggest sequence breaks I have been trying to find the last years. There have been countless of attempts made but I haven't got a solution yet :(. Ideas a welcome!

[hadri1a1]

@Tomtelala Seems almost impossible since you can't go through him or through the wall around him... If you could skip the entire Marin thing before the walrus, you would win like 3-4 min wich is significant. Hope you will find!

That would make me really happy, it's the part i hate the more even in a non-tas game ^^

[Tomtelala]

@hadri1a1 The other two sequence breaks I have been trying is to get into Bottle Grotto without Bow-Wow and reaching Kanalet Castle without trading the bananas. I don't think any of those three will ever be found...

I'm still happy that I found so much stuff for this run. Frog song skip being the one I'm most satisfied with. Though I would love to find more glitches in the game!

[hadri1a1]

@Tomtelala I think there could be a possibility to go through the flowers in the swamp, but for the Castle like for the Walrus, it looks impossible :/

And yeah, skipping the flying chicken part was really impressive, it's a great job u two did!

And i'm pretty sure there still some minor glitches to find :)

[thunder3467]

Loool 58:19.

[Wolsk]

Some of the stuff later in the video was awesome.

You, sir, are a god amongst men.

[pendragon177]

I have honestly no idea what the fuck happens half the time in your TAS runs but they are so awesome to watch!



[spammmy]

Been looking forward to this for a long time :)

[BOWERSCOWARD]

Zelda. On crack. haha

[nathnolt]

YEAH

!!

[DisobeyMe]

Thanks for giving me something to do for the next hour <3

[KoploperMau]

Stunning quality and great run. :-)

[jenovassidekick]

Nice work dude. You can always tell when you've put a lot of work in these runs. Congratz on almost 1 hour. Keep it up! One thing though. Now this is done are we going to b seeing moar zelda non TAS or what?

[7584695]

at 57:00 whats up the top of the room what happens when you go up there

[Tomtelala]

@7584695 You appear in the room where you exit the maze if you would have been going down after falling down the holes.

[needgreenweed]

0:51:50  wat???

[NASCARFAN160]

Yes! Thanks for including this one!

[TheKDX7]

You and Tompa always work on zelda: oracle of season? And if yes when he will be finished?

[Tomtelala]

@TheKDX7 We finished the run two days ago. It will be up on Swordless' channel either tonight or tomorrow. Stay tuned ;).

[TheKDX7]

@Tomtelala Ok thank you ;)

[toxicsquareHD]

@JamJam I completely disagree.

[toxicsquareHD]

@toxicsquareHD WHAT



[elmilkmann]

Two videos in one day? You spoil us?

[toressykes]

I cant help but admire the amount of dedication these videos take. All your videos are just awesome!

[pichu55]

soo about that ocarins of time tas

[Tomtelala]

@pichu55 Will be finished today if things goes as planned. But that's a secret :).

[pichu55]

@Tomtelala i really hope its close to being done seeing as i miss the wip vids swordless would upload and since you upload TAS's i was wondering any tips on making high quality encodes for youtube cause i may wanna try to learn how to do hq uploads and help out any1 with TAS uploads since i dont have the 15 min upload restriction

[Tomtelala]

@pichu55 He's TASing the rooms before Ganondorf as we speak. The run will probably take a few days before it is uploaded however, due to the time it takes to encode it. But I guarantee that it is worth the wait =).

[pichu55]

@Tomtelala i know its worth the wait ever since he released the first video ive been waiting for the full run but since he stopped uploading the wip's the wait's just been building cant wait for the final run

[aleckermit]

@pichu55

Shit's close. REAL close. REAL CLOSE.

REAL CLOSE.

[pichu55]

@aleckermit teasing me so unfair qq

[Zorabotic]

LOVE

[Icyytouch]

What a fantastic time... But how awesome would it have been to be just under an hour? Missed it by 2.68 seconds! :(

[Chrisu59]

why does link swim at 22:15? o.O

[billybobbobbobbilly]

Serves the shopkeeper right for charging 980 rupees for a bow.

[TheGlitchedUpGlitch]

Very great and entertaining TAS. Fantastic optimization from the last run.

[MNHStudios]

5:50 Now you're just being silly.

[Unforgiven783]

i used to talk to you through youtube like 5 years ago and im pretty much just any random person to you now :(...sucks

[FlareRDB]

half link lol... legend of zelda 1/8th swords

[ssb4smasher]

Now sub 1 hr :D

[0Krusnik0]

Congrats, dude!

[linkyswordsboy]

so how do you break the hitboxes and sprites so badly? It looks really funny.

[XSootheVSayerX]

why does your L-1 Shield look like an L-2 Shield

[csscripts]

i am the only one who saw it all completely?

[Tomarobby]

@csscripts Nope :)

[stootab]

great run! does this mean that you'll be resuming work on the all temples run of OoT?

[BrandMan211]

@stootab This is not a new run; it's a new encode of it which uses TASBlend so that the credits aren't messed up.

[NinjaPBrown]

Yay I can watch on my LED TV

[Zm4rf]

there's RTA, which is cool and showcases skill.  then there's TAS which showcases entertainment. And then there's SwordlessLink.

[Zm4rf]

what, only 1 hour? i'm torn because a shorter run is better, but i like watching quality runs for longer

[chavoiia]

OMFG!, so cool! ;)

[thepuff273]

this may not showcase "skill," but it sure as hell shows an incredible amount of effort on your part.

[ToonLinkGaming]

stunning work mate :)

[RhanC777]

Wow 7 months?! Patience was a HUGE virtue here...xD

Incredible like always.

[darklinkskiller]

Is this is TASvideos? SL?

[nintendork64]

Think under 1 hour is possible?

[ZeekyBoogyBoog]

swordless u r ma wet dream

[JayThePokemonMaster]

@ZeekyBoogyBoog OH YEAH OH YEAH OH YAOI! ;D

[DivineSlayer1]

@JayThePokemonMaster You deserve 40 lashes for saying that...

[JayThePokemonMaster]

@DivineSlayer1 Although I'm still trying to decipher the exact meaning of your comment... ;P

[xXNolin95Xx]

another TAS! wheres my popcorn? :D

[TaylorTotFTW]

2 videos in one day? Very nice :)

[SuperCopter]

Amazing.

[ThatGuyWithJuice]

i would like to see how fast you could beat the original with the pause glitch

[vinyboiler]

WOW that's amazing work SL. I have never seen such a classic being brutalised as much as you just did here.

What's next on your list?

[nathanisbored]

I thought it was one minute and five seconds this time because of the last one.

[MrSkyVizer]

Two Link's Awakening in one day? You're too kind <3

[MaskedKirby]

Why did you reupload it ?

[BrandMan211]

@MaskedKirby My original HD encode didn't use TASBlend, which resulted in a messed up credits. This one uses it.

[monkeyjr58]

very nice
