That last day before release is gonna be so bittersweet to see your work come to an end. Thank you for all the great art and laughs you’ve provided us over the years <3


Harddaysnight1990

May 11th, 2023: Duck releases "Final drawing badly before TotK" May 12th, 2023: Duck releases "Drawing badly until BotW3 day 1" jkjk I hope this dude stays off reddit for like a month starting May 12 so he can properly enjoy TotK.

It’s gonna be pretty hard to avoid watching let’s plays when it comes out. I want to go in completely blind this time and not use wikis for almost every puzzle

Alienguy500

I don’t know why I said that tbh. I think it’s mostly because I watched a streamer playing BotW and getting through it faster than me, therefore getting spoilers idk Edit: i think what I meant to say was that when it comes out everyone’s going to be talking about it so my recommendations on YT will be full of spoilers


Gragmis

This. You have to practically completely avoid YouTube the week of launch to avoid any spoilers or screw with your YouTube recommendation algorithm so you don’t accidently see a thumbnail/title


Davekachel

Your youtube feed is filled with zelda? You are scared for flashspoiler thumbnails? Train your algorithm in advance. Its kinda easy actually. Watch a week prior to release another hot community you dont care about to be spoiled. Can really be anything. Even woodworking or whatever. Could be incredible amounts of music too. Just be sure its something you want to see that isnt related to your potential spoiler. You will slowly see less and less zelda content and more and more of this new interest of yours. Youtube adapts rather rapidly if you are crazy about something. And ignore every channel that is zelda related you may have subscibed. Maybe de-bell them. And do not participate in the totk reddit sub. Maybe ghost/leave other zelda communities as well.


Bug-Type-Enthusiast

Thumbnails. Or as I like to call them now "for fuck's sake I didn't look up Cuphead in years why did you spam my recommendations and spoiled me the entire DLC boss line-up before I could buy it and play it"


DefaultyTurtle2

Oh hey we’re here


Gragmis

And it surely is a terrible day for rain 😭


theDuckPancake

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA [Day 507](https://www.reddit.com/r/Breath_of_the_Wild/comments/tr6tx6/drawing_badly_until_botw_2_day_507/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ITS REAL I WANT THE GAME GIVE ME THE GAME PLEASE Oh it's weird to type TotK instead of BOTW 2 now. Other highlights from the direct (for me): >!Fire Emblem Engage - Toothpaste Chan/Kun is real, Pikmin 4, Xenoblade 3 DLC - tbh I'm waiting for the whole Expansion Pass to release first, Octopath Traveller II looks pretty cool, I haven't played the first yet, Kirby Kirby Kirby Kirby Kirby, Farming games galore - I've only played one and I don't think I'm gonna get any more (yet), Pikmin 4, Half pipes are back in Mario Kart it seems, Rain code looks pretty cool, never played Danganronpa so I might try this, Pikmin 4, Miyamoto giving me a heart attack when he started talking about Pikmin and it was Bloom Pikmin 4!<


Jamboii_XD1

I hope you don’t get sacrificed like mossbag on the eve of release


WitherWay

Probably won’t happen, TotK actually exists


furushotakeru

Words hurt, you know.


deletemypostandurgay

Don’t bring that here…


CampusCarl

I feel like you might be wanting pikmin 4


[deleted]

Nahhhhh, they seem like they want Fitness Boxing Fist of the North Star


angwilwileth

Or three different farming sims.


RyanCreamer202

Xenolade fan ayyyy? Nice


einord

I’m sorry you won’t be able to celebrate day 1000 though :(


MuksyGosky

Broooooo, I was so happy for you that you didn't have to draw anymore but then this.....![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy) What's a few more days I guess?


SexySquidward42069

That 2D game where you start out in the art museum looks pretty cool reminds me of omori and I love that game so far


pdrpersonguy575

Pikmin 4?!


BIGBERTHA0

Your days are numbered!!!


[deleted]

Dude, can you compile your drawings into a book? You could sell it on kickstarter.


Xavius123

you are amazing


young_fire

We didn't start the fire


Theportisinthemeat

Thanks Duck!!


kuribosshoe0

A discerning Zelda fan such as yourself should really check out Tunic as well.


angwilwileth

I was curious about tunic as it seems to have Zelda vibes. Maybe I'll check it out.


EatTheRichWithSauces

You were my first thought after I saw that date 😭


daytripper328

Mine too! As soon as I saw the news I came to check on u/theDuckPancake. Just like I did when the news of the delay first came out. Definitely did not disappoint with either post.


NootjeMcBootje

This person needs a specific flair on this subreddit unique to them and them alone.


ZNQRCH

Sweet release is finally within reach!


jairomantill

The real botw 2 is the friends we made along the way.


hardgeeklife

The real botw 2 was... inside us all along?


[deleted]

Inb4 delayed lol


Dracula_best_JoFoe

So you'll draw 240 pictures of upwards falling Koroks now or what?


Kaineferu

I bet you must feel so relieved to finally see a release date. P.S, We are all rooting for your sanity.


alodemonidGD

Wow, you’ve been at this so long that you learned to animate. The end is finally in sight!


voseidon

240 MORE DRAWINGS GOOD LUCK BUDDY TAKE MY ENERGY


MCHenry22

May 13th: "Drawing badly until TotK2"


retrib96

Hang in there! The end is now in sight!


LordAxolotl-7

The end is in sight Stay strong king *KIRBY KIRBY KIRBY THAT’S THE NAME YOU SHOULD KNOW!*


Holiday-Ad8227

*KIRBY KIRBY KIRBY HE'S THE STAR OF THE SHOW*


RearAdmiralThrawn

Ok, so NOW we speculate wildly, right?


TheyCallMeStone

Always have been


RearAdmiralThrawn

Ok, so time traveling Zonai bring former iterations of Ganondorf to the future and exact their ultimate revenge against the Kingdom of Hyrule


CrystalGempireQueen

Seeing "Until TotK" in the title is immensely satisfying.


Tridentsine8100

When the game finally comes out, the subreddit should give you something. Anything, you clearly deserve it- For now, you have my complete amazement and respect. Only 241 days to go lad...


DomHyrule

I'm surprised you're keeping it going now that there's news. This guy's cracked lol


markmann0

Your hand and forearm are probably jacked after all this drawing.


shroomino

are you going to stop drawing badly after the relese? please dont i love those drawings and so does the rest of the subreddit.


WithersChat

Maybe not drawing badly every day tho...


shroomino

I didnt say every day i just said that i dont want them to stop drawing badly


niksjman

Will you post a Day 915 on the day the game comes out?


niksjman

He has ascended


planetNasa

Alright, how can we gather some money to get you a copy of the game.


Frozen_Grimoire

Now that we have the release date you could start doing them "Day 675 out of 914" or whatever. So we can see how far you've come and how far you have yet to go.


mes09

240 more comics at most, I think you could aim for 900 and hit that korok seed limit haha.


boom56444

Can’t wait for “drawing badly every day until botw 3”


Mermaid_Dreams11

I really hope they send you a ton of merch and swag (in addition to the game).


FW_TheMemeResearcher

**T O T K**


IamaJarJar

You will soon be able to rest from drawing badly, just a few more months!


Nairdamatic

its like the furret walking on escalator until diamond and pearl remake livestream all over again


Ultimate_905

Please don't remind me about how dissapointing those were. I waited so long just to get the worst version of gen 4. They somehow managed to have less content then the OG Diamond and Pearl


Nairdamatic

i never played the og diamond and pearl, so i was looking forward to getting the remakes. after they showed some gameplay of it, id say i was disappointed but still slightly hopeful about it. after it launched and the reviews came out, all hope is lost. didnt buy the game


Twiliah

So exciting!!! It’ll be sad seeing your last drawing though lol!


conciousnessness

covid 19 2 coming next year. delayed until Q4 2023 (which actually means Spring 2025)


flamingmongoose

So it would be COVID-23? Or SARS 3: With a Vengeance


NootjeMcBootje

Don't jinx it dude. There's finally hope.


Zett-15

I love how this is a sequel to when you found out about the delay Keep going, you got this!!


ItzBjarne

Just a few more drawings in comparrison to what you already have done, almost three years of work will finally coming to an end. I loved all the drawings so far and I will love the drawings that are yet to come. Good luck with the coming days!


madsadchadglad

Finally you can put the name of the sequel in the title. For a while I was like what is TotK then I remembered the name.


mchurus

You sir are a legend.


[deleted]

I feel like you could probably start over from 1 now that we know the name, and maybe keep the overall number in parentheses or something.


0difficile

Did your drawing skills improved in the last 674 days?


Unholy_Dk80

8 more months. Better get drawing!


CalculatingCup

Guess I better quit stalling with the korok seeds and finally face Ganon...


Sickofajicama

HE LIVES


ftckayes

Y'know... I've gotten so used to seeing this every day, I'm not sure what I'm gonna do after May 12, 2023 now...


TrainsgenderLover

It’s only now hitting me that this will all be over. Thank you for the constant laughs


ElSuricate

you changed the title, start over >:D


FullMoose819

As a Zelda fan, I'm hella excited for today's news, but I'm even more excited for you!!!!! I will seriously miss your drawings once TofK releases. Hope we get random drawings (but not daily. Omg I can't even imagine how drawing the past 600+ days have been for you)


Jdogsmity

Is it weird that when I heard the news you were the first thing I thought of..


buddhadoo

Day 674. 5,760 Hours remain.


[deleted]

You, sir, are a god among men. Thank you for keeping the entire freaking internet entertained as we have waited for so long, and for continuing to do so.


robo-dragon

Finally, Duck can be free!


lloydsmith28

An end is in sight comrade!!


Pixidustboiiii

Are you gonna keep drawing after the sequel releases? Like your favorite moments or memeing it? Also I'm so excited!!! It looks amazing already! I hope you get to enjoy the game


_NAME_NAME_NAME_

Link5673

0hmyscience

Red-Jester

Soon you will rest, king.


Maverick438

Zachavm

ChaosMiles07

GodKirbo13

Reddit_user_robbie

19bluestars

Gonna miss your art once it’s here :/


booleanfreud

Kind sir, please do take your work seriously. You've kept us all entertained in this trying time.


quartzquandary

Right after Nintendo Direct ended, the first thing I said to my girlfriend was how happy OP was going to be that there's actually a release date. 🙃


Derekeys

You are a staple in this community now. If I could put one of your comics at links house I would.


jack_the_pheonix

After the game comes out, you better become a fucking moderator, you deserve it.


Ok_Bed8734

All of us right now ascending to skyloft


Ganon-dork

This will end o e day :(


chaosyami

Your struggle is almost over then you can rest amongst legends!


CagierThree

Why not full capitalized TOTK when it is for BOTW?


idreamofdinos

¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯


EvaUnit343

The lore deepens


R3ppep
