Video summary

Press to jump

0:00Dunkey admires the remastered music and graphics before the voice-acting jokes begin.
1:08Kokiri Forest becomes a testing ground for the new jump controls and swimming.
3:27The Kokiri Sword gets a workout against plants and interactive signs.
7:44An angry flock of Cuccos puts Link's escape options to the test.
12:59Lake Hylia brings a visit to Pierre the scarecrow and a turn at the fishing pond.
15:45King Zora takes his time sliding out of the way of Zora's Fountain.

Link can jump over the chickens now. Whether that will save videogamedunkey from them is another matter.

His new video, "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time", explores a modern remake with updated graphics, remastered music and a dedicated jump button. It has drawn about 1.5 million views in its first 18 hours, with Dunkey finding as much material in cutting plants and testing the swimming as in saving Hyrule.

The opening is unusually straightforward: "The remastered music, man. It's beautiful." Then come the jokes about bargain voice acting and his repeated insistence that Link is a leprechaun. Acquiring the Kokiri Sword gives him an opportunity to attack the local greenery and interactive signs before tackling the Great Deku Tree.

The new controls become their own running experiment. In Kakariko Village, Dunkey points out that Link can leap over attacking chickens. An angry flock proceeds to swarm him anyway, bringing up the game-over screen. Viewers are also comparing notes on spending their opening stretch cutting everything in sight and staring at the water.

Some things remain stubbornly unchanged. Near the end, King Zora performs his slow sideways shuffle to clear the entrance to Zora's Fountain. Viewers single out both the preserved pace and the repeated camera cuts that make the wait into a joke. Dunkey gets a more agile Link, but Hyrule's royal traffic obstruction is in no rush.
