GDQ rub submissions typically end ~3 months before the event starts, incentive submissions end ~2 months. For this one it was September 20 of last year as the cutoff for game submissions, and October 27 for incentives. Odyssey could not have possibly gotten into AGDQ this year.

A BotW any% run managed to squeak into SGDQ last year solely because it was submitted as a donation incentive, I don't think it could have gotten in any other way. If a "recent" game gets into a GDQ it's usually a quick run that someone who was already going to be running something at the event could pull off; aside from being too recent to sneak in, Odyssey any% is still over an hour so even if there are people there who can run it optimally & consistently, it's not really something you can easily plug in-between some runs.

Yooka-Laylee is actually a pretty fun game and the quizzes take up maybe 2 minutes total of a ~14-hour game if you're going for 100% completion. Energy isn't ever really an issue because you're getting upgrades when playing casually.

edit: I played the PC version that the devs made, not the console ports with poo poo frame rates



we've heard the conversation sound bytes I'd rather listen to hollow knight mushrooms going WAAH for 10 straight hours instead of the slide whistle

I played a launch version and hooooooooboy no.

I know they unfucked the camera tremendously since I played it but there are just so many little annoyances in it I'd be surprised if they got them all. They might have though.

I played it in July so the major issues were probably patched. The only issue I ever had was that the physics sometimes looked weird at 60 FPS if playing the game at 100+ FPS. I don't remember having many issues with a crap camera, but it was also right after playing Sonic Adventure so everything is golden in comparison.

e: ^^ you can disable those in the audio options even though they aren't any more annoying than BK/BT/Animal Crossing/every other game that has fake speech

The deadline for submissions was after BotW was released. For AGDQ I think the cutoff was September or early October, right before Mario released.
IIRC there was some weird pastebin drama about the BotW run, because the major runners had all agreed to wait until the run was a little more refined before trying to get it into a GDQ event, and the one runner who did it didn't get the memo (and also any% is not the greatest category anyway).

I'm going to blow your mind: at launch the camera was significantly worse than Sonic Adventure
