Up front: obviously, major spoilers, so if you care about spoilers for how the master sword makes its appearance in Tears of the Kingdom, do not watch!

Normally I don’t post things like this on Reddit, but I figure Lemmy needs users who actually post content, so, let’s do this :)

I’ve been working on routing and running this category for a couple of weeks now. This is maybe the 6th or 7th iteration of the route, and this run was sort of a “route test” as much as a run, so I can do even better.

Most of the TOTK speedrunning community has been laser-focused on any% since the game came out. They’ve done some really impressive stuff and I’m excited to see what they do. There’s also some interest in All Dungeons, which I’ll probably take my own stab at soon. However, there doesn’t seem to be much interest yet for this category, which was a real gem in Breath of the Wild speedrunning for several years.

To avoid spoilers, I won’t give the exact rules here, but I can put them in a comment or something if that seems safe.
