He's finally back,
to kick some tail!
And this time,
he's goin' to jail!
Honestly I should have done this months ago but since Fae's LP is winding down it seems like as good of a time as any so...



Welcome, friends, to a very special presentation of Ocarina of Time. Faerie Fortune's excellent Blind LP brought us back to the days when we were 10 and didn't know what the hell was going on, and Doctor Kill's Glitch Run takes us to the speedrunning side of things, but both of those are so...normal. The camera doesn't freak out of its own accord, they have full control over Link at all times... No, what we need is something different. Something...special.

This is Ocarina of Time, Chaos Edition. If you're familiar with Super Mario 64 Chaos Edition, then you should know exactly what we're getting into. If not...well, it won't take long. Progress is slow, and seemingly impossible at times, but the power of savestates and the almighty Frame Delimiter have taken us far beyond what any of us thought was possible. In fact, barring the Mirror Shield loving up the Twinrova fight, the game should be 100% beatable, start to finish.

This is a Stream LP - we try to stream for a couple hours every weekend and make as much progress as we can. My usual guests are Chaos Argate and Faerie Fortune, but the practice streams have whoever and every so often Admiral Curtiss steps in, so give them all a big round of applause for putting up with this thing. Actual Progress Streams™ are usually on Saturday or Sunday afternoons (I'll give notice as to when specifically as soon as I can), but Practice Streams are usually spur of the moment and I'll throw out a tweet an hour before or something.

Regarding spoilers, the LP is technically almost over (This was originally recorded alongside Fae's LP) so it really doesn't matter, but just out of principle I don't want to see a single black bar in the thread. I encourage everyone to speculate about what will go wrong in the Spirit Temple/Ganon's Tower and talk about anything that might derail us in the final stretch of the game. I've also highlighted a couple of the videos if you just want to see some of the more...unique things that the game has done so far and you don't want to watch the previous 80% of the game.

:siren: If you have problems with Epilepsy or Motion Sickness, do not watch these videos! :siren:

I'm going to post that again because it's REALLY loving IMPORTANT:

Yeah unfortunately the most common things you get are A) Being forced in one direction for a bit, B) Backwalking, or C) Moonjump. I do think this game is far more interesting than Super Mario 64 is because of how heavily scripted it is. In Super Mario 64 nothing can really go wrong because at worst you just re-enter the painting or get a game over, whereas in this game everything is really tightly scripted so even a small change like Link flying away in the middle of a cutscene can have serious side effects and it's funny to watch the game desperately try to keep things going.

That said, the best effects are the ones that are mostly cosmetic and just look silly as hell, like when an area spawns in skewed or upside down, or the Hookshot glitch. God I love the hookshot. :allears:

So barring any last minute schedule changes, we're probably going to be streaming tomorrow at around 1:00 PM EST. Haunted Wasteland, Child Spirit, and maybe some of Adult if time permits.

If there is, it's not built in and I'm not sure I want to be loving around with adding even more cheats to this. I mean it's surprisingly stable for what it is, but I'd rather not take any chances, you know?

I was going to put some kind of explanation on the many ways that Twinrova is a garbage fight in Chaos Mode instead I'm just going to say that I apologize for nothing and if I had to play it, you have to watch it. :colbert:

Oh boy we're going into full-on speedrun bullshit now. :allears:

Okay but seriously, that's actually pretty doable with one major exception. Chaos Mode can get a bottle on B pretty easy, but it's a bottle full of bugs, which usually turns into a Deku Stick somewhere along the way. And I think we need a straight bottle to do Bottle Adventure bullshit.

We can't use that duped bottle on your bombchu slot?

No no, we need a bottle on B, and Chaos Mode gives us a bug bottle on B. I'm asking if that's okay or we need a straight bottle.

Since Fae is going to finish up Ocarina on Saturday, and we're almost certainly going to finish up this mess on Sunday's stream, I think that calls for a special celebration. I'm not saying there's going to be a stream on Friday afternoon, but there might be a stream on Friday afternoon.

Today's bonus stream will be starting in about an hour. It will probably be shorter than the usual streams, but we'll see where the day takes us and how cooperative the game is with regards to money.

Played around a bit to see if the game would give me upside-down Link but no dice. So, it's time to do whatever we can in Ganon's Tower and whatever will be, will be. Final Chaos Stream starts in 5:

I'm disappointed you overwrote the boomerang right before you could have used it in the fire temple room. Backwalking over the bridge mostly made up for it

Boomerang can't collect Silver Rupees, just like the Hookshot. We were hosed either way in that room.

I don't remember this happening. When did this happen?

Beginning of the Ganon fight, Link started backwalking during the cutscene and ended up face first in the fire wall. So the game, running on what little internal logic it has left, sets Link on fire. Because Zelda makes those concerned yells every time Link gets hurt, she was constantly yelling during the Ganon cutscene and none of us could figure it out until it finally cut to Link on fire.
