Tears of the Kingdom is in a weird spot with updates because there have been quite a few updates made to fix the glitches that the community found. This video goes over how the changes impact speedruns and why certain versions are faster than others for different categories. Here's a link to the glitchless video I mentioned:    • Speedrunning Tears of the Kingdom wit...

    It’s so fun to see a speedrunner legend explaining how it works. It’s more interesting because he’s the best.
  • @lightos_
    great video! the rabithole of version differences goes so much deeper than you might think, especially on 1.0.0
  • @bluezaton
    Nintendo really used the speedrunning community as beta testers after launch.
  • @kentonmcbride
    I love your explainer videos, man! You're a natural at this and I am always satisfied learning from them. Cheers!
  • @SuspiciousTemmie
    I'd love to see you do more of this type of video in the future, you’re actually really good at making them! It was very intriguing to learn about the positives and negatives of different patches and how they affect speedruns.

    I like that 8:30 transition putting the speedrun leaderboards into links tablet, very smooth
  • @baci5190_
    as a new runner for 1.2.1, its been a great experience!!! the route changes frecuently, but the skills are transferable and its fun to watch it develop. Great video Player5!
  • @Timberwolfee
    Awesome video! It's so cool to see all the differences laid out like this.
  • @user-xt4fv8cb5y
    I know you probably won’t do this, but you should have a video, or a series, showing and explaining how to do every glitch in the 1.0 Any% route. Personally I’ve been trying to do the category, and I have to search far and wide to find tutorials on any of the tricks. I think the speedrunning community would grow a lot if anybody did a video/series like that, and if it came from THE best speedrunner of that category, then that’s just icing on the cake. Sleep on it will ya!
  • @mobes8876
    Great job on explaining the differences. It'll be cool to see your channel do more content other than speedrun videos
  • @davidb2
    I'm a big fan of all your speedruns, but I especially like glitchless. Keep up the great content! Also, about Nintendo not adding DLC, there has to be a reason they don't give you full hearts (and full stamina).

    Nintendo: tries to fix the game Speedrunners: break the game
  • @MikemanPlayz
    Playing BotW since launch and have watched a ton of speedruns and 7 years later I never even knew this horse glitch lol 5:57 Great video btw 😊
  • @petitfrapo
    Very good video, you really explained this well! Keep up the great work P5!!
  • @BuffPomsky
    Would love to see videos of similar format in the future! Personally, I like glitchless as it's playing the game the way it's meant to be played but with great expertise
  • @SuishiYT
    Great video! I never played much on 1.0.0 so it was cool to learn about some of the quirks. I knew zuggling was better on 1.0.0 but I never knew it was that big of a difference!
