The challenge is as time-consuming as it is useless, so essential

If you have played The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you know that the latest title from Nintendo’s cult license can be approached in many different ways. Freedom is at the heart of the gameplay, and everything forces us to experiment ourselves to create an à la carte experience. Of course, this also means that many players will only pursue main quests and side quests, but others will take advantage of this freedom. Among the toughest, we find players who set out to accomplish each other’s craziest challenges.

Bobby Blue HolidayWhich we also know by nickname FirefighterIcy9879 On Reddit, there is one Zelda player who is already known for his wacky challenges. Besides completing the game 100% in just under 500 hours, this time he set out to become the first player in the world to achieve the feat of reaching the maximum number of every item in his inventory. In other words, he wants to have 999 apples, 999 lumos seeds, 999 meat, etc. Until you reach the maximum possible for every object in the game. Apparently, It intends to achieve this feat as honestly as possible without using the slightest object duplication error. A challenge taken by Squall (who collected 999,999 Spirits from the Deep) seems like an easy walk in the park.

Currently, Bobby Blue has accumulated less than 1575 hours on Zelda Tiers of the Blue Holiday Kingdom, and he’s not ready to stop. If we do the math, that gives an average of six hours of gameplay per day since the title’s release on May 12, 2023. In the comments of his own Reddit post, the player explains that “While everyone sleeps, (he) saves Hyrule

” Unsuccessful determination.

Some things are harder to find than others

It must be said that this is not actually the first time that Bobby Blue Holiday has taken on such a challenge. On Zelda Breath of the Wild, he managed to accomplish the same goal, accumulating just under 2,300 hours of gameplay. However, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom offers more items, and some have a maximum number in inventory much higher than 999. Asked by our colleagues GamesRadar, Holliday believes that the most difficult thing to farm is undoubtedly the “Max” ingredients, as well as Silencio trout. (which only appears in two places in the game). But if there is something that bothers him more, it is precisely that not all objects in the inventory have the same maximum number. While he would have liked a grid full of 999, he would at most have to be satisfied with a few more or less important objects.

In the GamesRadar article, Bobby Blue Holliday talks about the exploits of Japanese player Squall that we mentioned above. As a reminder, the latter spent nearly 1900 hours retrieving 999,999 souls from the depths. He has to take on this task as well, so he takes the opportunity to examine Squall’s path and notice that despite having a very quick playtime for the feat, it wasn’t the best. Even if he intends to be the first in the world to complete this challenge, we still wish Bobby Blue Holiday would take a break from time to time. Not that it will find serious competition overnight.
