Title: Ocarina of Time RBA Run LIVE (Finished, Highlights Posted Inside)
Post by: aleckermit on December 17, 2009, 01:25:34 AM
Well I think it took somewhere around 1:50 something to beat(including resets which take like half-a-minute)... I took it more casually than I should have, but I think it was more fun with me talking and responding to comments. Also keep in mind it was my first GCN RBA run(route was made last minute).

Major events during the run(fails,highlights):

1. Fishing went great, got fish in first throw.
2. The DoT Skip was HORRIBLE, I had the worst possible luck imaginable(and I need to learn to pause buffer obviously)
3. Stole the rod in one dive.
4. Got 2 superslides(kakariko to forest, death mountain volcano trail)
5. Got both pressure jumps(one took 1 try, the other took 2)
6. Did bridge skip in 2 tries(easily could have done in one like I usually do, but I flicked the controller too far back the first time)
7. Ganon Tower enemy rooms went really bad, had to reset a few times(I was getting tired, should have drank some coffee)
8. Killed Ganondorf in 2 cycles(was 2 hits away from a single-cycle)
9. ABSOLUTELY SUCKED at Ganon with hookshot(gonna practice fighting him A LOT)

Overall I had a lot of fun! Expect a much more serious, more concentrated aleckermit in the future when I speedrun.

I plan to do more Live stream stuff in the future, it's really a blast.

I'll be there, too!

I'm currently checking your run on YT and am liking it so far. I can't wait to see it Live, though!

If you do bridge skip you've got more guts than me. I tried for a while to come up with a safe way to do it and could always get the red dot but it was too variable if I would latch on the right place or not.

I'm gonna take my time with the setup and make sure it's perfect. I'll use you trick to angle to the right after I latch-on. Worst case senario is that I could fall and have to reset, but that doesn't happen much. If it won't latch on I 'll just do the setup again.

I'm doing a practice run tonight(no I'm not streaming that lol) to make sure I get everything worked-out.

Just wanting to add something: This'll be great to watch before the Pokemon Marathon for TheSpeedGamers. Two epic things in the same day!
