OoT Speedrunners Have Cut the Intro Cutscene! (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time)
The Ocarina of Time speedrun community are cutting their 3-minute intro cutscene from every category by a 59% majority vote. This is a huge shift which will require a few months to properly transition to. Let's explore why they did this!
