every few months i always come back and rewatch this. it’s so relaxing to fall asleep to and it’s the perfect background noise for grinding stuff in mmos
This is one of the few videos that I uploaded without watching before hand to find mistakes. If there are any, I apologise. I know of one near the start where the screen is black when I get a ranarr seed; this was in the original video as well. Enjoy!
I like the old commentating style much better, super chill and relaxed, the new ones sound too tryhard, awkwardly forced shouting "AW MATE, MAN, SEE YA, SLAYED, SNAKE" and all that nonsense.
B0aty I would like to thank you for all the effort you went to on this. I'll be honest I'm not going to watch it as I have seen every single one to date :)
He needs to remake this series, updated version. I love B0aty but his youtube videos now make no sense to me, i don't understand what they are? It just seems to be random clips with no context of some random account...
@@roym9829 you have to go back several months where he talks about how he's going to play his main the way he wants and slowly work on filling out the entire collection log (minus stale baguette probably). He said he hasn't played on a non restricted account in so long so it's refreshing. So that's what he's working on
seriously. I wonder if ironman is ever even a thing if some of these guys dont dedicate years to these unofficial accounts. Faux, cinmar and boaty and some other un named accounts are probably directly responsible in some way for the popularity of this game.@@willmurrin9344
First time watching this and it is so cool to see the progression, not only of the account, but Adam's view of the ironman game mode before the official release of such a mode. From "yeah I will never get X" to making this style of play his main and blowing his own expectations out of the water. Very cool to see, and also it is neat seeing how much the game itself has changed.
This should be made into an actual movie, you were the inspiration to so many of us to create ironmen you deserve so much more honor in the RS world. I would never have came back unless i watched this masterpiece
Many years later and I still listen and watch this series in full. Happy to say I've watched it in full maybe 10 to 20 times. I need a life. But it's good content.
You're not alone. This is only my second time watching since I watched it day of release, but god is it fun to look through and notice how ironman strategies have changed since 2014. My jaw hit the floor when I remembered that Adam unironically picked FUCKING FLAX for hours because it was the only way to train crafting. And god damn did I feel nostalgic when he said he felt physically ill from MINING PURE ESSENCE. Like damn, THIS is content, not the unoriginal *hey guys welcome to my slayer montage this is me grinding for a whip like every other ironman progress series*. I swear, hcim has really killed the excitement of ironman mode by making content creators do the same shit 5 times over when they DC at fucking zulrah after 5,000 hours of progress. One Man Army is so fun and pure, nothing like it will exist again, never ever.
@@reverendneko8512 Nowadays the game is just minigames. All the old methods have become invalidated by minigames like Giant's Foundry, Guardians of the Rift, Wintertodt etc
Legendary series. Can't express how nostalgic and enjoyable it is to watch. To be honest, I'll probably revisit this every year or two for the rest of my life. Thank you b0aty
I'm going to download this and then listen/watch it on long car rides. Your voice is really easy to listen to and I feel like time passes faster when I'm listening to the episodes lol.
Idk, but this series is very special to me. The pureness of this series without background - music makes it so immersive for me, I absolutely fucking appreciate this, and love b0atys commentary. Watched the entire series like 7 times now
The best series of OSRS in a very long time. Watched it about 3 times and watching it again because it's exciting. Started a hardcore ironman because of B0aty and it is the most fun i've ever had after not playing for 2 years.
I'm still watching this amazing series after years of its release. This series is so inspirational and changed Runescape completely as we see it. Thank you B0aty!
started watching this during quarantine, decided to make an ironman because of this series, now its the only mode ive played in the last two years and reignited my love for the game again. thanks for everything youve done for the OSRS community my guy.
one man army is still the single most influential piece of content in osrs history. Swamp man, sadly, has nothing on the gameplay implications this has. Changed the game for good. PKing will never be the same: I think thats a good thing. Absolute legend. Thanks Adam.
@@Elit3Blaze did swampletics influence leagues? If so, which league? I know Framed’s gridlocked account was literally trailblazers league in a nut shell.
It makes me happy watching this video because you can see how far you have came as a content creator as well as that how much of an asset you have been in ensuring longevity of RuneScape success. Hopefully with the impact how you did this with Ironman we can now save the game once again by giving PvP the updates that it deserves
Not only is it a good series but you're also watching the game evolve slowly. It's especially neat seeing the old UI designs that no longer exist, feels like a runescape time capsule
This showed up in my recommended - started playing OSRS again after a very long break. I was playing when this was being recorded so its definitely a big change compared to release but im loving it. Always loved your content my man hope all is well Adam.
People gawk at cutenoobs today, but 2013-2014 was fucking wild. NO ONE knew what they were doing and killing cows with mage was kinda the norm for mid game tbh
I have no idea what you're saying half the time, but I'm currently 4.5 hours in and just riding a wave of nostalgia that you're bringing on for me. Also taking notes on all the things I could have done if I played this game intelligently, lol. Thanks dude!
This video popped up on my UA-cam page 7 years ago and got me back to Runescape. Im still playing the same account that I created because of this video. I built a zerker but "mained" it few years ago. Thank you for all the IRL XP waste and good content!
This was the video that got me back into Runescape since the early 2000's. 6 months later and I just unlocked barrows gloves and my rune defender. Couldn't thank you enough for being the catalyst to my epic journey.
Thank you so much for this; I played RS in 2005-2008 era, and this entire video (plus part 2) brings me back to when I was so addicted to RS. Have a like and sub! :D
Been watching this video for 3 days now, 4 hours 10 minutes in... I would probably not watch UA-cam for a week if I watched 7 hours in a row! But this is a really great series b0aty. Nice work!
Good old days.. Before everything was an area locked, uim, tile bound bs. Back when I could just watch a gamer game on osrs without so many gimmicks. Real old school. Love this series still.
You realize this is like, the original gimmick series right? He made a series of rules and is following them, and for the time the rules were somewhat complicated.
