Area randomization isn't here quite yet, but it's coming too.


This video really shows it off. This guy is basically a pro speedrunner who has all the settings turned to full random. It is a very long video though so watch it in chunks.

I appreciate the thought, but I'll have you know that my browser is top of the line.
Better than anyone else's.

Also, it displays as embedded and plays fine. It's just the time-skip that's wonky..Probably because you scrubs use chrome.
Which is google..and youtube is..google.. Closed source FTL!
Git Gud!

*EDIT*
On topic though.. I will never understand a randomized play-through of a linear game..
Nor do I usually watch clips longer than 15--max 20.. minutes.

This one's really interesting though because you're wondering the whole time how much the game is gonna torture him and what exactly it will give, plus the random music in a lot of places is kinda hilarious. And finally, since this guy does 100% speedruns of OoT regularly, it's very entertaining to see all the strategies he uses to gets out of tough situations.

Challenge and unpredictability. If you know where everything is, what enemies are in each area and what order bosses are going to be in, randomizing that adds a whole new level of challenge; maybe you get an endgame boss at the beginning, maybe the item you need is in a completely different location, etc.
