Can You Beat Zelda: Ocarina of Time Without the Ocarina?

Join me as I attempt to beat The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time without obtaining the ocarina item or learning any songs! I'll also be attempting to beat every single dungeon in the game (which includes collecting all spiritual stones and all medallions)!

    It's so nice to realize, really. Just all that stuff we never came across, besides maybe the odd clip in a game like Banjo-Tooie after a _lot_ of trying, and all these people spending years finding ways to pick it all apart and play it differently than any of us probably even wanted to. Well except Sonic 2. I played Chemical Plant _carefully_ to avoid zipping.

    btw, im pretty sure the 'funny knee-thing' that AdultLink does in cutscenes is based on how those cutscenes were coded...as far as i understand it, they basically have a pointer for where Link's Head should be, and then another pointer for where his Feet should be...this is to prevent his feet from simply clipping into the ground, if theres uneven terrain or whatever...but the Distance between Head and Feet is hard-coded into the cutscene based on the age Link SHOULD be during that cutscene... a "less-glitchy leftover" of this is the SleepingWaterfall cutscene at Zora's River (its the sweeping camera movement after playing Zelda's Lullaby at the entrance)...apparently the devs forgot that AdultLink has to come through here too, because his knees are all bent for This cutscene, since his Head and Feet placement are based on YoungLink's height... (as for an 'Adult Cutscene as Child' example, the Ganondorf-Ganon Transformation cutscene will have YoungLink standing at the same height as AdultZelda, but the camera is 'conveniently' cropped to not show Link's floating legs, iirc)

    36:33 I discovered on my own you can hit this switch blocked by the block of time by just jump slashing with the hammer. Because the block is partially underground the hit box doesn't register properly and you can just bonk the switch inside. Randomizers sometimes put you in the fire dungeon with no ocarina so you have to experiment with solutions :)

    this was a very fun video! no complaints, except partially for the ocarina bottle to escape the forest temple, but you didn't *hold* an ocarina and still held yourself to not learning them so its overlookable. what i kept thinking throughout this video is how unoptimal things were. You could have gone in gotten the longshot at any time without getting the medallion, which would have saved time in spirit, getting to spirit, and definitely around the dungeons. You could have come to spirit as child by hopping the fence, getting all the way to the gauntlets, then hopping off the hand so you wouldn't get the requiem. all before first going adult, which would have saved time and glitches in places like fire temple. those aren't complaints, though, because despite the unoptimal plays, it really showed you were crafting this yourself and having fun. definite plus in my book

    This looks very relatable as when i attempted to play ocarina of time for the first time, i couldn't get very far because I couldn't find the ocarina at all, after the deku tree, there was a tree trunk like cave things and no matter how many i went through, it kept going and I couldn't progress, botw and totk and twilight princess and skyward sword were great, but I could never figure out ocarina of time, i just couldn't find the ocarina, then i tried majoras mask, and it deleted all my progress when the timer ran out, but i tried to do everything again and it deleted the progress again... Unable to find the ocarina, these two games didn't make sense, there was a bomber notebook minigame which was interesting, and there was a deku dungeons, but if you do the deku stuff, i was stuck in deku form till the timer ran out and it reset everything, majoras mask felt more like stanley parable but more complicated

    I have to admit that I was really skeptical you really didn't know about OoT glitches after you hovered into the Forest Temple as child (that trick is by far the hardest thing you did in this video) But after seeing you figuring it out along the way I was sure you didn't know anything This video is really fun to watch as someone who has followed OoT speedruns for a long time, but also painfully frustrating XD You could've made your life soooooo much easier, so *cracks knuckles* let's get into it You could've used a glitch called reverse bottle adventure (RBA) for which you only need a bottle and is completely trivial to do as adult It involves getting a bottle on your B button after which every time you catch or drop something from the B bottle your inventory will be changed depending on what is equipped on c-right This glitch could've given you *inhales* bomb bag, quiver, gold gauntlets, gold scale, adult wallet, infinite bombs and infinite bombchus (it can also give some songs and medallions but that's against the challenge) Also you might have noticed that when you became adult you had bombs equipped even though you didn't have them If you do RBA with bombs on c-right you get a bottle on your bomb slot in your inventory and the game only checks if you have something on your bomb slot and a bomb bag to allow bombs to drop from grass (this also applies for the arrow drops, something on the bow slot and a quiver) Since you have bombs equipped this means you can use bombs practically immediately after becoming adult. (All though you can never unequip them or they're gone) Also you can get a bottle on your bow slot through another glitch which only needs a bottle + ice arrows and you don't need magic to use ice arrows (it just fires normal arrows just like it would when you run out of magic) So yeah, you can use the bow, don't have to worry about bombchu's and could've skipped the bomb hover to the silver gauntlets EDIT: omg, I just realized that hovering into forest temple as child isn't even neccesary XD If you died on the fire temple blue warp (just like you did in forest temple) you would've wrong warped into forest temple thus skipping minuet and allowing you to get bow normally since you can get gold gauntlets from RBA
