@Shambo Yeah, I believe we're in agreement about most if not all things. You can email me (my username at gmail) if you want to continue the conversation. I don't even have a video gaming console—I played BOTW for like 2 hours on a friend's switch once—I was definitely here because I was interested in the exploit mechanics—and a little disappointed they didn't explain what's happening under the hood, ha.
@Shambo Mm, are you sure there is even someone who claims to enjoy / feel accomplishment from just following steps to get 999 Korok seeds? (It kinda feels like you've invented the problem...) Speedrunners just enjoy learning about exploits because it expands their wonder about the game mechanics behind the scenes. Some speedrunners will enjoy executing steps because even executing menu controls fast is a speedrunning skill. Programmers enjoy these videos because it gives us hints about the code, sometimes even reminds us of similar scenarios from other games. I don't know, I just feel like you're expressing disappointment about a group that doesn't actually exist, haha. If you can find a single example of someone who's claimed to derive enjoyment / accomplishment from following these steps, then I stand corrected!
