This is actually a really hard final boss if you don't do certain side quests. Imagine playing this without the Great Fairy Sword, without infinite magic, without the white border on the heart containers, without the Gilded Sword, and with only two full-heal potions.

It took me an hour :gonk:

This, along with the run in general, has me wondering what a bare minimum / douchebag% run would look like. What's the critical path for finishing this game without going out of your way to help anyone? In my head it's something like

First cycle

Swamp-
Help Koume
Sneak into palace
Beat Woodfall

Mountain-
Get Lens of Truth
Get Garren Mask
Learn Lullaby
Beat Snowhead

Ranch-
Get Horse
Get Garo Mask

Ocean-
Get Zora Mask
Retrieve Pirate eggs (with one bottle :suicide:)
Retrieve Other Eggs (still only one bottle)
Beat Great Bay Temple

Canyon-
Get Captain's Hat
Get Song of Storms
Get Gibdo Mask
Get Mirror Shield
Beat Ikana Castle
Beat Stone Tower

Beat Moon

By my count if you just mainline it you're left with a hefty seven hearts, no Great Fairy bonuses, and one bottle. I guess it pays to be nice to people!

I should note that for Majora's Incarnation, Tatl's probably trying to tell you to use Deku Link. Just slam directly into his legs with a pirouette and he'll knock right over. Also, Deku Link's shield covers all around him so you're less likely to get sideswiped or backstabbed.

This was truly a joy to behold, sirs! But, there is one question left on the table:

Did the Octorock ever get a name? I MUST KNOW!

Great LP! Thanks for showing off this run, it's a lot more intense than 100% speedruns and a million times more funny.

Are you still going to post the route? I wouldn't mind doing it casually.

See you in the next LP!

Awesome work. I never would have thought this was possible, I could barely manage to beat all the bosses in three days, let alone the rest of the dungeons. And you guys have a really good mix of commentary, it's got character and personality without making it more about you than the game. I'll be interested to see what other stuff you do.

I just realized, you should have replaced the boss music with this, considering the boss was dancing alot.

This is one of the best LPs all year. Thanks for doing this, guys.

Planning any bonus videos for missed content that you really wanted to show off? Or maybe just a full schedule that you were following so we know what else you were planning to do but couldn't because you're loving trash at garren racing?

I don't think so. May do one last compilation video/song made from game assets, but not going to post any new dedicated gameplay videos.

Great ride guys, when you say battletoads, do you mean the arcade version?

Please tell me you mean the arcade version.

NES was what I was thinking, but holy poo poo. George and I played through the arcade version last night, and that poo poo is out of control. Will probably do both (most likely before Sonic)

This route seems right. You can be an extra douche and take the bottle from the beavers to make things a bit easier too!

I don't think they ever did, sorry. We are very indecisive about names over here.

I found my temporary route files! The final one got lost in a hard drive crash, but I have two here that should show the progression of the run. The most important part to route is the first day. After that, more or less the only scheduling necessary is Kafei/Anju and the milk run. The rest more or less came down to practicing various sections of the game after the first day.

Anyway, here's two hilariously wrong routes that I found. The first is just when I was trying to schedule all of the masks. The second is a very detailed account of the first day, albeit still not entirely indicative of what I ended up doing, particularly at night.

So are you gonna do a victory lap to clean up the last masks, get the rest of the jars, and maybe show off other weird stuff?

Aw man that bites you lost the final set of notes. I totally forgot you posting on Twitter about your computer dying.

Oh well with some reverse engineering and the notes you have here it'll be easy to figure it out. Thanks so much!

The arcade version is awesome and to my knowledge never got ported anywhere. Glad to tip you off to it.

This hadn't occurred to me, but it's probably correct. I was thinking they wanted you use that sweet Goron roll. That phrasing also got me thinking of what Gorons would consider a "sweet" roll and I wanted to make with the pun jokes, but all I can think of is basalty. :(

A bit delayed but it took me some time to catch up. Fantastic LP. I really enjoyed watching the different ways to go through the game and the various song remixes and jokes. I really enjoyed the whole process.

I look forward to seeing your other LPs in the future
