Still haven't fully completed this quest yet (although I have finished--with much death--the original LoH) without cheats (almost only counts in horseshoes and hand-grenades), but I've played through most of it at this point. The original LoH was great, but James24 was nice enough to go through and make the gameplay more seamless using scripts and other various tricks to address a few quirks that comes with such a difficult quest. With the newer additions it's probably at the point where you'd be hard-pressed to cram in anything else without it getting too congested; it's definitely packed full of great challenges for sure.
Bottom line: This is the most difficult ZC quest in the database and is improved from the original quest. Some of the screens in this game will make you want to pull your hair out, but if you can beat it then you'll feel like you accomplished something. Amazingly well thought out quest. 5/5
Warning: This Quest is Hard!!!

Description
This quest was made for me and my unique taste and preferences. I like to play very hard quests and LoH:IU is my dream come true. Most Zelda players do not share the same taste and preferences that I do and as such my quest will probably not be enjoyable to most players. Please do not play this if you do not like hard quests - it will end very badly if you attempt to do so.
** Update 18/3/2020 ** Not a quest update rather a change of the video. I've completed my own playthrough of the latest version of LoH:IU and uploaded it. I'd like to thank Yloh for the previous verison.
** Update 6/2/2019 ** All new fights, rebalancing, content and a terrifying new quest rule that allows enemy weapons to hit James when he is half a tile away from them. This is Liberation of Hyrule: Insanity's Extreme version 2.0 and has been renamed to Insanity Unchained because it is MUCH harder than the original. There's also an awesome graveyard dedicated to the challenge quest players out there - enjoy!
** Update 21/7/2019 ** Fixed a minor bug in the first fortress and fortress 3 has been slightly tweaked and rebalanced.

Story
Hyrule has been conquered by Ganon. You and your band of rebels must liberate Hyrule from his tyranny.
Tips & Cheats
There is no password so if you really must cheat just open the quest and edit it yourself. Doing this counts as a forfeit.
