ok im sick of people who say they can beat oot in 8-9 minutes. ok heres whats wrong with that. first off the cutscenes alone are like 1-3 minutes. now that leaves 5-6 minutes. now then you have traveling through the field, thats like 20-30 seconds a trip, give or take. and thier are over 15 trips you gotta take. also the temples to, even if you know where every item is, you still gotta do all that stuff, and thats gonna take like a minute a temple, give or take. and since thiers 8 adult temples, and 3 kid temples. thier is no physical way to beat oot in less then 9 minutes.

possible ways to beat a game:
Any%, or fastest completion, refers to completing the game as quickly as possible.
100%, or full completion, requires the player to complete the game to its fullest. This often includes collecting all key items or upgrades, finding all secret features, or anything else that may be deemed important. Specific requirements for a 100% speedrun are different depending on the game.
Low%, or minimalist completion, requires the player to complete the game without obtaining any key items or upgrades. If the fastest way to complete the game already involves the player not to pick up any key items or upgrades, a low% category may not exist for that game's speedruns. As with the 100%, low% speedruns have requirements that vary from game to game.

Speedruns are very fun to some people and though I tried it in many attempts I felt really bored so I would usually quit very soon . I would really love to do that someday but I don't have alot of time . I like to enjoy exploring and taking my time in many Zelda games and experience the story and do some other fun stuff than do speedruns . I congradulate all who done that and of course who doesn't do speedruns in MM

Well i can understand your logic, however it could be possible if you were SUPER fast and used the glitch that allows you to beat the game as young link. Also speedrunners don't usually start the timer during the cutscenes...i think.
Anyways
I sometimes like to attempt my own speedruns, some through glitches and some without. I finished A link to the past in ten minutes which isn't really fast since I used the glitch.
I also tried to speedrun temples in MM but really failed at those.

well what i mean is without the use of glitchs. some guy claimed he did on youtube. but when he was doing it most of the game was cut. like 1 minute he was doing kokiri forest. then it skipped to like the 1:30 mark and he was fighting gohma. then at like 3:00 he was meeting ganon on his horse. thats what grinds my gears is that video. and the sad thing is people believed in it.

To be 100% honest with you speed runs arent my thing and neither are many other peoples. Especially for Zelda games, now for mario as in one level and seeing if you can beat it under a minute or 2 or 3, that itself is fun, but on a full out Zelda game.. uhhh
Not exactly my cup of coffe, Zelda is supposed to be a puzzle adventure game, all those doors and switches and bosses and stuff, speaking of bosses, boss runs are cool, just not "Game speed runs"
