Hi everyone, thanks so much for the support on this video!! I wanted to be clear on one point, just so there's no confusion. In the video I said, "this is my first video," and while that is true, I have made other videos for others over the years. This is just the first video I've made 100% on my own (idea, writing, thumbnail, editing, etc.), on my own channel. I just didn't want anyone to think I was claiming that this was the first time I had ever put a video together 😃

Just beat up all the monsters and live in the castle. I hear the king recently moved out :)

I’d like to mention that Hateno is a little bit more level too. In Kakariko the village is basically on a slope so you are forced to walk up or down hill to get anywhere. Plus there’s these guys obsessed with bananas who are pretty bad, they can get scary close to Kakariko. They even managed to take out one of the villagers. Another downside of Kakariko is that one of the neighbors has almost a dozen cucco. At sunrise it’s just a cacophony of squawks and no one is willing to say anything bad because he is estranged from his wife and in a rough spot. Rumor has it that he chose the cuccos over her though. I’m starting to see why Nikki and Amira have so much fun gossiping.

You can never forget the housing market! Hateno Village is the only place in the game that has a house you can buy for yourself (since most, if not all, Tarrey Town houses are occupied by other people)

This series has so much potential. Showing the lives of NPCs to nature documentaries for guardians I cannot wait to see where this goes

I noticed when monsters chase you, they do attack other people but they won't go near any towns or stables. So sticking close to civilization would mean that you are safe.

I almost didn’t believe you when you said this was your first video. The editing and overall quality of it is outstanding so much better than some other established KZfaq channels. Can’t wait to see more!

I'm curious how you'd rate Gerudo Village for the accepted demographic. Would it make it to the final selection?

It looks like the algorithm really liked this video! A lot of people enjoyed it, and so did I! Your pacing is great, and the visuals you used are very good too! Please tell us more about your findings living in Hyrule!

The witty jokes, the striking cinematography, the novel concept... I can't wait to see more from this new Hylian resident! Have you considered making a vlog-style video, tracking a day in the life of a Hylian cinematographer and his travels?

Ooh I always thought it would be fun to get a "Vacationer's Guide to Hyrule" sort of thing - i.e. comparing what different types of vacations tourists are looking for, the trips to get to said destination and how long it would take to travel, how many activities there are to do/sights to see, etc...). Stuff like Lurelin village for those who want a relaxing beach stay, Pondo's Lodge for the more adventurous skiers, Satori Mountain for those who just want a chill camping weekend picking apples at the orchard, Zora's Domain for the culture, the Forgotten Temple for the history buffs, which stable is the best for a two-week ranch stay, etc...).

IIRC, one of the back exits to Kakariko village has a full Guardian Stalker roaming the field nearby. As much as I'm sure they have great warriors there, I don't know if I'd wanna take my chances with such a threat lurking nearby. Another plus for Hateno is the big telescope on the top of the hill to watch for the approach of invading forces.

This man needs to make a wild life documentary for this game. Everything from squirrels to a mulduga. Another idea would be a commercial for eventide island! Keep up the great work. The only critique I have is to make funny edits for jokes. Like the paint shop guy, edit what’s seen to be more dramatic. Great work though overall!!

Rito Village would probably be my favourite place to live, just because of the local landscape (I like the cold too). Then again, the more hardened Hylian might choose to live in a remote log cabin instead. Maybe you could rank those next?

If I were to live in Hyrule, I would probably imagine myself to be a sort of nomad. As with all the different towns to live in, I'd find it interesting to travel about and make my earnings as a traveling storyteller, similar to Traci. But I also like the idea of just going where I want to go, when I want to.

What are your favorite meals as an average hylian? I suppose it depends on how easy the food source is in your hometown. I bet there's some delicacies that's hard to get to, food that's rare, yet STILL not worth it, and a list of recipes you make all the time! How about potions? Do you keep a certain amount in your pockets all the time such as a healing potion or a heat resistance potion depending on if the summer heat is too much? I am having so so much fun with this idea of yours!! Keep up the great work man :)

Personally I would choose Lurelin village. I do a lot of fishing as a general rule and love swimming and archeology. I think I would focus on searching for treasures and providing fish for the people of the village. I also am quite proficient at archery, and there is an archery shop there, so I would be satisfied. I like the idea of seafaring, and it is close enough that I could visit the other villages if needed. He did a very good job with this vid, I was astounded when I heard it was his first. Hoping he gets hype in the comments and subscribers.

I would argue that if invaders blocked the canyon, all it would do is make Lurelyn safer. They still have access to the sea, and therefore all the food they need, and also a way out to other parts of the world. They can also get fresh water from any stream flowing into sea, by gathering rain water, or by distilling sea water.

I literally didn’t even know Lurelin existed until I was over 150 hours into the game AND on my second play through. I only found it because I was hunting for koroks and saw that there was quite a few over there😅

Damn, this is nice. And I totally agree, I would move to Hateno myself. It's peaceful and safe, with you able to see an invasion long before it hits the town. As for future documentaries, I prefer historical ones, so the history of the different groups would be cool. However, I would be fine with documentaries on wildlife.

I love the way your camera work in-game looks so cineamtic like a nature documentary. Definitely keep up with this style if you like it!

I can't believe this is your first video. It looks like the kind of videos more established youtubers might make. It was really good. Also, I think a nature documentar type video about different enemies might be interesting!

I can already tell from the work put into this video, and your interactions with viewers in the comments that you are gonna do well!! I can’t wait to follow with you as you grow :)

Personally, I’d pick Rito Village. I love the cold, and the higher altitude would keep me feeling secure, despite the lack of full walls. And while I’ve never been terribly fond of the Rito, I have no reason to dislike them (except for Revali), and they are very skilled archers, so defense wouldn’t be much of a concern for me. Also, for a future video, maybe you could do something that like observes Link. Like you have no idea who this guy is or why he’s climbing on roofs or breaking pots, but it grabs your interest.

For your first video, this is really good. It feels professional, and the camera work looks great, too. Looking forward to seeing what you've got planned next!

What a cool and original idea!

I already assumed from the beginning it was going to be Hateno Village. Its just the most normal feeling of the towns by far, since it doesn't have any other specific design feature other than being a normal town (that's not to say its design is bad, its in fact the only town that doesn't have some design gimmick). I wouldn't mind living in Kakariko village though, I really like the rain (although, in the less-modern Hyrule, the architecture probably isn't quite so good at keeping out the cold... but who knows).

Dude, no way is this your first video, this is so polished and entertaining! If you're looking for video ideas, how about a nature documentary of the different regions looking at the native animals, common plants, and even regional monsters? Or informative videos on each of the settlements and their native races? Really looking forward to what else you put out, man!

Korok forest/Kakiriko for me. The former is creepy but pretty much impenetrable while the second is safe with good connections to elsewhere, also I just love the atmosphere of those two

I think Hateno is just the best option overall. It's a very big versatile town, where you can find basically anything you need. There is a lot of shops, stands, and businesses that are in Hateno, not to mention their very own research lab! The area is very safe and the community is large. There is also housing available, which would be a problem in Kakariko. Also, the Yiga Clan could be a danger in Kakariko. The food sources are basically limited to 2 local farms that make a single vegetable small scale, and some eggs. And any variety from outside of the village could be hard to find, as the community is quite cold and closed to travelers and traders due to the risks connected with Yiga

I think a fun series to do would be an in depth look at each town individually, one video could be on Kakariko Village, another could be on Hateno, and so on and so forth

I'd love to see content like documentaries in a similar style to "Life as a Bokoblin" by Monster Maze. It'd be pretty cool. And you're just on time to build your channel with the hype for Tears of the Kingdom releasing soon this year. I'm sure the path you've paved for your channel will be a smooth one for this upcoming year!

I was so shocked when I saw you only have double digit in subscribers! This is such a great video and I'm excited for more videos in the future!

I don’t even know much about Hyrule but I feel like this is a well made and appealing way to get the word out! I like your animated narration decisions too. Stay safe out there in the wild!

Dude, I am so thankful for these captions. Especially considering this was your first video (WOW!!) it's really incredible that you added them. Please keep doing so, I really appreciate it. I loved this video a ton.

Congrats on the channel launch, S-tier immersive explaination for the channel as well. Conclusion was a little rushed, but great first vid. Looking forward to your exploration of Hyrule, hope to get some ideas I can add to my homestead

Man this video was really well-made, can’t wait to check out more of your content!

Isn’t there the oase near Gerudo town? That place would actually be a cool option. They have everything you need, there is gerudian protection, and a nice pool right in the middle. And on top of that, gerudo town is right next door, so they are also a plus point.

This was an incredibly fun video to watch. I can't believe it's your first one, I'm excited to see more and maybe when TotK comes out you can make an updated or part 2 that goes over any new areas or changes that would make certain villages less safe.

This is good quality for a first video, I will keep watching and as far as suggestions would love to see some sort of look into the individual villages and overall story from the view of a average hylian like yourself. I am exited to see what you make!

The editing is unbelievable 😮❤ Please make more videos

Well done. For your first video, it is astonishingly well edited. I hope to see more videos of the Hylian perspective later on. Good luck out there!

THIS is your first video?? I enjoyed it so much!! I would love to see an advertisement for certain weapons, or an in depth documentary about an interesting NPC’s life- but i’ll watch anything you make!!! :)

cant wait to see what you do with your channel. good work here and keep it up

This was an awesome first video! I personally would love to move to the Rito Village! As long as you've got warm clothes and a paraglider it's still easy to get around, and without Revali around the (bird) people are pretty nice! 😉

For a first video it was so expertly made! Reading the comments I know everyone else agrees! Keep up the great work! I think documenting which region would be the best to make settlements in sounds cool. Just a suggestion. You’re doing great

damn this was a really good first video! I can agree with you about living in hateno, really relaxing place.

So absolutely impressed that this is your first video. Excited to see what’s to come! (Especially with a new game on the way)

THIS is your first video? That was waaaaay better than I would expect from someone's first steps into video creation!

I'd love to see like a mini documentary on the world of Shield Surfing, or may be doing a piece on some abandoned structures (you know after the hero, clears out the monsters)

Hard to believe this is your first video. You have a lot of talent! Looking forward to seeing more videos from this channel!

I love the idea for this channel! I hope to see more in the future :3

Amazing! I really enjoyed you talking about each town, giving reasonyable arguments for each and every one and giving me a throwback to the time i still played the game myself 4 years ago... Good Times... :) You really crushed it with your first video, wow! +1 Sub for sure!! Greetings from Austria xD

this is seriously your first video?? i think you're bound to make great videos, this was fantastic great visuals, commentary, and humor. This is seriously better than many videos by big youtubers

That was a joy to watch :)) so wholesome!! Keep up the happy vibes and I CANT WAIT to see you make videos on tears of the kingdom 🙏

This video was adorable... great camarography too, and fun in-character narration. Looking forward to what you make in the future.

I legitimately had to pause the video & check when you said this was your first video. What an incredible debut. Even with influences & a general knowledge of how it’s done, this was a great, well edited, well scripted, & super captivating video. Looking forward to more.

I like this and would like kakariko village as top choice for a family to thrive you have the dairy and domestic farm animals...but I liked your reasons too. Suggestion: how does beedle travel all over Hyrule without a weapon to defend himself? What routes would an avg hylian travel with minimum weapon usage, let's say a wooden sword and shield? Is it possible? Beedle has a dangerous job and the game doesn't show how he survived life out on the road...he's usually at a stable when we meet him. Would the avg Hylian need body guards? Look forward to your next video.

I love this as an introductory video to your channel. I'm looking forward to more from you. Good luck.

Dude, this is an AMAZING start. I'll be watching from now on. Good luck, man!

I'd have to go with Lurelin, It's also my favourite town because it's just so quiet and scenic compared to other places in hyrule. It's also close to a big ol jungle with lots of cattle to hunt for food + a horse stable. It's pretty aight and one of my top destinations in Hyrule.

TotK Spoilers: You definitely made the right call about not living in Lurelin, there were indeed invaders

Great video! I'd also pick up Hateno for all that reasons, but also because aesthetically it's my favourite village. It's the typical happy, quiet and prosperous fantasy little town where you could spend a serene life

This was absolutely incredible, I can’t believe that this was your first video!!! All of the points you talked about were amazing!!! Keep going and never stop🎉

Absolutely amazing first video, I love the whole shtick of you literally being in Hyrule documenting your travels and experiences lmaoo

Excellent video! I would pick the same town to live in, too! Shocked to see you're a new channel. Really great job on the video. Excited for more!

I love when an awesome creator just pops onto the KZfaq scene, coming out with amazing videos immediately. Please keep up the work!

This. Was. Gorgeous. Can't wait for your scenic shots compilations on best place for vacation, wedding, honeymoon, and boys night out.

Amazing job on your first video, I really thought this was a much bigger channel that I just didn’t know about, and then I heard what you said Excited to see what you come up with next!

A Hyrule wildlife documentary series would be pretty great. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

this is such a cool idea! would absolutely love to see more!!! maybe for another video, you could look into making an instructional video-guide on how to survive/avoid monster attacks, as an average person? sort of like the [how to survive a bear/wolf/whatever attack] videos they show you in schools or camps or anything. a PSA, if you will! idk the specifics of how youd do it, but that could be a fun little video / series :) or maybe a foraging guide could work, too. like knowledge passed down through the villages that you are now learning how to do, as you become part of the village itself. im not sure how much potential either of those actually have, but could be fun to test out, maybe. good luck, and cant wait to see more of your videos!!!

This is really unique and well-made! Looking forward to more of your content

Dang this is a great video. Even with my very limited info on Legends of Zelda as a whole you still managed to entertain me. And this is you first video very impressive. I look forward to more videos of yours.

So excited to see your next video! I feel lucky to have discovered you so early. Well done man!

I loved this so much!! I can’t wait to watch more whenever you upload!!

Seems like a great concept for videos, can’t wait to see more!

Wow what an incredible first video! Amazing to know this game can still produce fresh, creative discussions and channels years after its release. I can’t wait to see what you do for Tears of a Kingdom!!

This video was super well made, huge Zelda fan, so I will definitely be keeping up with you channel! ❤

This is such a good way to both make a good video and introduce your channel. Can't wait to see more.

This is a very good video for your first video, and I cant wait to see you grow! As far as town choices go, I would've personally chosen Kakariko. This is mainly because of the look of the town compared to Hateno. Other than this, I agree with you on every point you made.

Dude, you are amazing. Can't wait to see more of your stuff. I love the creative ideas you have! :)

Great video! Could not believe it was your first! I passed it on main page but kept thinking about where id live and had to go fetch it. Keep up the good work!

I was so confused as you said it was your first video. The Quality really stands out , even to others main videos. Great work

For the couple of videos you've uploaded so far, I'm loving it! I had to subscribe so that I could know when the new videos are coming!

this is an amazing first video i honestly would love to see more content from you

amazing for your first video!!!! i was so surprised when you said it was, the quality of the video was really good!

I'm very excited to keep seeing videos from this Hylian! Keep it up!

I really like the amount of dedication and thinking you’ve done, instead of just saying Goron village (because let’s be honest goron village is best village), you actually thought about your needs, really well made! Subbed, looking forward to your next videos

I absolutely love your video! Your editing and voiceover is amazing i cant believe this is your first video. Thank you for giving me something to watch for 10 minutes:)

I LOVE the theme of this channel. Have fun and stay safe in Hateno! Looking forward to see your new vids :)

Honestly, good start on a first video!

Love these videos! I’d like to see more videos of you traveling from one place to another. That was really fun!

That was a great Video! I was surprised that this was your first video and it deserves so much more attention :) Keep it up with the good stuff!

Love these types of cozy videos, going through with random thoughts and messing around in breath of the wild. I watch a lot of other creators like bread pirate, boko club, monster maze's bokoblin documentary, and this is absoultely on par

omg what an awesome video, i'm so excited to see what else you come out with next!!!

This video is amazing, the editing, the cinematography, the fact it was your first video, and the novel concept all amaze me, I hope you keep up this quality content, you surely will go far. I couldn’t imagine the videos from totk

Can’t wait to see more videos, this was very fun and interesting to watch and it looked great too! A nice pace combined with a nice voice, gotta say it’s a 11/10

wow. thats a really good quality for someone who is just starting with youtube. looking forward what comes next

yeah I'd definitely live in Hateno too you had a bunch of good points about all of them though this video was great! I'm exited to see the channel grow :)

I have been doing dozens of videos and i am still not close to your level in editing, this is incredible and i am really waiting to see more
