In September 2019, Morino completed The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild while only making use of shields.^[4][5] In February 2020, he organized a tournament in which 20 live streamers raced to complete a Breath of the Wild speedrun in which the player must feed all 16 dogs in the game as fast as possible, with the winner being awarded US$1,000.^[6][7] On March 6, 2020, he completed Breath of the Wild while prohibiting Link, the game's player character, from being able to walk.^[8][9][10] A week later, he held a livestream in which roughly 600 concurrent viewers completed Breath of the Wild in a format evocative of Twitch Plays Pokémon, though Morino occasionally offered assistance to his viewers.^[11][12][13] After struggling with burnout, Morino decided to expand his focus beyond just Breath of the Wild into both a variety of games and real life content in early 2020, though he continued to make content based around Breath of the Wild.^[2]

Eric has also created content based around video game mods—on July 2020, he played through a compilation of 30 different Breath of the Wild mods,^[14] and in that October, he created a version of Breath of the Wild in which every enemy was replaced with the one considered the most difficult by fans.^[15] In November 2021, he announced that he would be offering a US$10,000 bounty to anyone able to create a mod that allowed Breath of the Wild to be played in online multiplayer, with several limitations, including that it must be completed before the release of the game's sequel, and that he must be given exclusive access for a short period of time before the public release.^[16][17][18]

On April 4, 2023, eight months after Morino released the first video demonstrating the multiplayer mod, it was released for free to the public.^[19][20][21] The development of the mod was financed by Morino in addition to the bounty payout, and Morino served as a creative director of the project, according to one of its developers.^[22] Shortly after the public release of the mod, Breath of the Wild owner Nintendo issued YouTube copyright strikes and copyright claims to Morino's videos based around the multiplayer mod,^[19][23][24] as well as those utilizing other mods.^[25][c] In response, Morino delisted the multiplayer mod from public download.^[26] In a statement, Morino claimed that the removed videos did not breach Nintendo's guidelines on creating content based on their games, nor did it violate the principle of fair use.^[25]

Morino's videos are frequently based around concepts popularized by others with his own ideas, such as edited videos of fan games to differentiate himself from other Let's Play videos. He has further implemented random elements to pre-established challenges, including a Nuzlocke Challenge of a Pokémon video game, a subathon with a randomized timer, or a Breath of the Wild version of the "Minecraft Manhunt" series created by Dream and Wilbur Soot.^[2]

After the release of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet in November 2022, he uploaded a video of the games in which he showcased many of the games' exploits and glitches.^[27]

During Ludwig Ahgren's chess boxing event on December 11, 2022, Morino fought fellow content creator Disguised Toast,^[28] in which Morino lost by checkmate.^[29]
