About me:

I've been involved in video game events for the last decade, most notably through the charity marathon @zeldathon.bsky.social. I help to organize and assist with these events in many different ways!

I'm also a streamer specializing in OoT/MM speedruns and randomizers, at twitch.tv/vidya

monty's probably getting the starting role whereas silovs is probably going to share with jarry. has better overall sv%/gaa and mtl's D line is better than the pens IMO

I will get crucified but maybe if I frame it as a "this gets worse the better you are at MM" I'll be comfortable enough to make it

I want to avoid making youtube videos with a negative/derogatory premise, but I also REALLY want to just post a 15 breakdown on why the bunny hood is overrated...

now you have me imagining playing Wii U VC OoT on a phone emulator

Vidya James @vidyajames.bsky.social · 22d

this does not appear to be the coachella for me

Vidya James @vidyajames.bsky.social · 22d

nope! you get a 3rd file though

Vidya James @vidyajames.bsky.social · 22d

On jp the only way to save is by playing song of time. On English you can also save at owl statues, but as soon as you load the file again it deletes the owl save. You can get around this somewhat by copying the file while the owl save is active. So unless you made a backup here you have to reset

I know I should expect my shit to get stolen now that I have mild success on youtube but it feels dirty nonetheless

Vidya James @vidyajames.bsky.social · 25d

saw a youtube short about blue dog that directly ripped clips from my video and put an AI voiceover on top, very cool 🙃

Vidya James @vidyajames.bsky.social · Sep 1

New video! I recently played through a walkthrough for Majora's Mask written before the english version released! It was a very interesting and informative playthrough, and I've compiled the highlights into this video: youtu.be/-wpoxBvoPmU
