"3,660 hours" in, Zelda's strongest soldier is farming max stacks of everything in Tears of the Kingdom by hand for a world-first: "You'll find me to be a man of my word"

Link falling during one of the best Switch 2 games The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch 2 Edition). .

Just over a year ago, superfan Bobby Blue Holliday turned heads in the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom community with a 1,500-hour status report on his quest to "manually cap all materials" in the game by running countless routes around Hyrule while hoarding everything in sight.

He is still at it. And he's made some impressive progress. In a recent Reddit post, and through a video shared with GamesRadar+, Holliday crossed the 80% collected mark some 3,660 hours into this grind. 206 out of 251 materials have been completed. His inventory is an endless scroll of fruits, meats, fish, ores, monster parts, and Ultrahand gizmos beyond the dreams of avarice. His world map shows a movement heat map so well-worn that you've got to imagine Link has physically carved ruts into the land with footsteps alone.
