1 hour of my life was well spent watching my childhood replay all over again.
It was fun at first but i cringed knowing all the mistakes made by jagex after 2010.
Same here, nostalgic seeing the 2nd tutorial quest (can't remember specific name, with the dragon) and realizing my first ever taste of rs was 9 years ago in 2009...
Famoouse I’m trying to pin point when I first started and it was for sure at 07 or before so from 05-07 is where I was. I think I was in late 05 early 06. So it’s been 13-14 years... I haven’t been playing that whole time but the memory’s of my childhood will always remain.
wasted
Heck yea that was something else. Started in '06 and played almost 4 years before i took an 8 year break lol
I remember each world was full and you had to wait for someone to logout lol. RuneScape is amazing...
To be fair. There was alot less worlds. But yes I remember the pain. Especially the old drop an item on 1 account logout then login on a new one and pick it up trick.
omgg i remember this. I had to log on to the brit servers because all of the american ones were full
@m. ab nooooooo not world 2 most of the worlds if you played anywhere from 07 to 09 you couldn't logg in due to so many players you wouldn't know obviously if you're only saying world 2
i remember tho i have 3 veteran accounts with 10 year plus vet capes on almost 15 year vet capes
@@DiddleDangle I went to german servers to get my worlds lol.
Lwazy Daniel Was Right Runescape IS Amazing
Because It’s Not Dead
ITS ALIVE
Geeze didn't realize there was so much drama going on when all I wanted to do was burn some maple logs.
i remember i was on Miniclip and this was the #1 game so i tried it out... changed my life forever
me too omg
Miniclip was the shit
Ha, same. I was like OHHhh, this looks interesting!!!!
me too man,
same with me
Thank you for not going biased towards either version of the game.
Professional as always.
agree, that is the only thing i dislike about mote plox's video, he is so biased towards old rs
@@oyvi00i Probably because old RS doesn't suck.
troll being troll
@@Comisioned lmao old one is ass.
@@HairyKehvo it's been two long years and OSRS is still better.
RuneScape is one of the best things to come out of the UK
Man you are either a god or the best damn bleach on youtube
*only
And harry potter and 15 year old Emma watson 😂😂
He is everywhere
RuneScape and Dubstep. Thanks UK!
I joined during the 2004 miniclip era. Good times.
OneTwoMark same 😭
me too, i found runescape inside miniclip
@@flukeynuke4777 possibly, but more likely it was 2003
See you at the party richter!
Me too!!
I just watched an hour long video talking about a game that I have not played for over 5 years. This really did bring back some great memories though.
I spent an hour watching a video on a game I never even played 😂. Does have a lot of similarities with Diablo 2 tho so it was very entertaining to watch.
This took me through so much nostalgia, I cant tell you how much i appreciate this video
Holy shit. What a video. Will have to watch it completely later today.
Sharing this around.
What a nostalgia trip. I remember finding out about Runescape on Miniclip back in November of 2004, 1 year after I moved into the UK. I didn't know English so the game really helped me learn English. I still remember the Free World Trading and Wilderness being taken away. Used to play this game everyday after secondary school. Everyone did. Still come back to this game every so often. You never truly quit Runescape, just have a relapse.
@m. ab nice.
Yup, you never really quit. I might log in one of these days as well
I'm on secondary School now I want to feel what it feels back then I wish I was born early.
@@reddead0514 You can only truly feels it by playing Private Servers of RS2009 or older one.
Been about 12 years since I've played. This is going to be one hard relapse in the future I guess.
This game is my entire life. So many beautiful memories being yelled at for not letting anyone use the house phone due to playing for hours on dial up. Great video. I can only imagine how much hard work this took
I had an unfair advantage, we had 2 phone lines because my dad had a home business.
I get a little teary eyed, especially with the classic stuff. I saw a bunch of friends mentioned on here which made me happy. I love watching this, thanks.
Nice to see you're still playing!
Nice boots!
Dungeoneered with ya :)
@@FirestormDDash I love them!
@@TheMehukas Oh really :))
Educational, immersive, fast-paced, historical and a great watch.
It came out like 10 minutes ago.
How would you know any of that?
He and two others joined a private feedback-screening last night :D
@@rswillmissit awesome, my brother and I were wondering if there was a prescreening
Also, hats off to you for creating a full video on the history of Runescape and not saying the word "Woox" one time. That's remarkable.
Haha, maybe I should've. He made some incredible feats in the PVM world.
@@rswillmissit Doesn't really matter, this is probably the best Runescape video ever made. Amazing amount of information & excellently made, awesome job dude.
Teared up multiple times during the video, especially near the end. Runescape means so much to me, having played it with my brother back in highschool and even having followed me throughout the years i havent played it with it beeing how i got my nickname "Dergi" in the first place. Thank you so much for making this video, looking back on all these memories is so precious to me.
This needs to go viral.
RIP The old nite.
ya i was sad when i found that out years ago remember talking to him and selling him d bones
F
Rip fatwrecked
rip zyzz
@@rawtrout3402 hahahaha so funny
Been playing this game since I was 14 (2004). So many great memories and so many hours up late playing and many hours at the library using their computer to play. Good times.
Thank you for making this! RS was a massive part of my childhood and this video was an amazing walk down memory lane.
Woke up randomly at 6 am, saw this and thought to myself - yo RuneScape is such a good game. Got up and started playing 😅👌.
Runescape was beautiful. Took some of my life, but was great.
@@marcosmf4807 I embrace it. Take my life RuneScape please

Hahaha nice catch!
Saw that too
i noticed that as well ..
No comprende :(
Mauii Mauii el nombre del chico era Black Ops 3, el videojuego de call of duty que salió años después lol
Wow. A truly amazing story is told in this video. You've brought me and countless others back to earlier years in our lives and reminded us of something that brought so much joy and happiness. Top notch UA-cam content right here.
Getting close to the end of the video now, man I'm getting really emotional and nostalgic. Great job with this!
the dedication to make this video is amazing. keep up the good work man.
Only the best for you all!
I tried to make this video a few times but it was so much work I never continued with it, cool to see that someone put in the time to do it though
Definitely a demanding video to make. It was worth it, though!
I just watched the longest youtube video I've ever watched in one sitting without even realising how long it was. It felt like no more than 10 min going through all that nostalgia, amazing job! Gz!
This is probably the best runescape video i have watched in years next to settled's UIM and Mortitaya locked Swampletics series. Thank you for the time and effort you put into this video and i had nostalgia shakes from my old RS2 07 days and remembering quitting myself due to Wilderness and other updates.
It is really impressive the amount of information you gathered there, great job Will. And it was very exciting to add my little bit into it
Whoever disliked this already don't know a good video when they see one. Can't wait to sit back and enjoy some popcorn when watching this. Good job, Will! ♡
This video needs more than what it has. This well crafted and the amount of effort involved clearly shows. This was a nostalgia trip for me and I loved every second of it, thank you for this!
Can't upvote this enough. Cant wait for you golden gnome for this!
Simply outstanding! This was full of nostalgia, and it was a great way to pay homage to such an epic phenomenon. I don't think the Gower Brothers knew what this would eventually turn into. I'm so thankful for all the fun times and great players that continue to journey online everyday! Cheers!
CLIMBING BOOTS WAS AN INSIDE JOB
great vid, btw
okay... nice video. Makes me sad cuz I remember 30 slot inventor :(
vaidai vaidai
my man
28 is th way my friend.
Hol' up
In Rs1 we indeed all had 30 slots in the inventory. But Jagex made it to 28 in RS2. :)
Very high quality video dude! You really covered EVERYTHING about RuneScape's history. Just amazing. 10/10
Glad I could help with this video. As I was able to check the script in advance, I can confirm that this is a great video. :)
You dont happen to have those screens of the hunter hiscores after release? Wanna see if im in them. Was battling Yogosun to 99, actually beat him and was top 15 for a long time :)
weird flex...
I miss your vids :(
I'm glad I could help with this video also. Please everyone, give me credit and acknowledge my greatness.
Why did you delete all your videos?
Awesome video Will, really captured a lot of my childhood memories watching this.
This video made me happy, thanks for taking the time to make it.
Kinda miss the classic days, when full black with r2h was the dream pure.
This literally made me tear up watching my childhood being told. Thank you for this video
Nico Ontiveros if you didn’t tear up when at the audio of the guy crying at rsc shutting down idk what’s going on
Your dad still looking for that milk too?
On 28th of december LYNX TITAN became the first OSRS player to achieve 200M exp in all skills ;)
holy hecc i didn't realize
Zezima achieved 200 million experience in all 27 skills, and 5.4 billion experience overall .
@@miggmigg56 in RS3, so that doesn't matter...they run double xp all the time in that. There's no double xp in OSRS. Lynx Titan is #1 on OSRS with 4.6B xp total.
@@miggmigg56 I said osrs not rs ;)
more like OSRS doesnt count, because its a fucking remake of a game that was over 15 years ago?? seriously.
Man, this was one emotional rollercoaster.
Saw my whole youth passing by in a 1hr video.
Those memories really made my day.
Ps still playing rs3 at this given moment.
I was there at the start, i will be there at the end.
Great job buddy, great job!
Thank you!
You are an absolute legend!
This was very well put together boss.
This is the only 1 hour long video that I’ve watched thoroughly
Thanks!
This takes me back man. I started a couple of months after RS2 dropped when a friend mentioned it to me in school. It was such a different game back them. If you wanted to buy something specific you had to go to specific banks around the map just to even be talking to the right crowd otherwise you had to hold up around the west Varrock bank and hope your message would be seen over the hundred or so people there. You also just had to know the prices of items since the GE didn't exist and there wasn't an active in game database with prices. It's hard to imagine having to play the game without the GE now.
Great video as always! :D
Thanks for a fantastic look at the entire Runescape timeline from the beginning til the end!
Great stuff, thanks so much for the time and effort it took to make this. Hearing them, I recall so many of the names of players who achieved awesome things in the years 2004-2010.. I was slightly obsessed with achievements at the time. So cool to watch it back now, an integral part of my childhood. A massive thanks, again
Subtitles will come out later tonight!
oh I was sad there weren't subtitles, so I'm more happy now, will have to rewatch it :P
Get in touch if you need the Pt -Br translation 💕
Yes please! If you have the time ;D
as a rl childhood friend of SoWreck3d and current player of OSRS, I cannot thank him enough :s
back when he was into dubstep and we would talk about music choices for his videos in chemistry XD
simpler times.
This was the most perfect video to watch while playing OSRS :D
this video is amazing, with all the hard work put into it making it one of my favorite rs videos. thank you
oh man! The Memories with this game...
This video was AWESOME and you should have a round of applaues!
GOOD STUFF MAN!
Love this vid man, great memories to a truly wonderful game! Well done :) Spotted myself @ 44:35
this is the most accurate/best video ever made displaying what happend during the years i began playing late 2004 and i've seen every single update ever since i withnessed basicly everything you saw in this video i stuck around for so long because i didnt had any other game to play at the time but then counter strike became a thing and i left runescape for that to play scoutknifez/gun game zombie mode all that taking a very long break from runescape till one day i saw on the forums Runescape oldschool... YOU DECIDE! bro never in my life was i so dedicated to spread the news and the day it passed and it got released you bet i spended every penny i had from rs3 to get a bond/play only oldschool runescape from that point onward as of now i never logged back in runescape 3 and i never will again because to me that's just a whole another game. i dont even know how it looks like if you asked me a question about it all i know is i had 99 RC Firemaking and 94 fletching but that's about it. spend all my rs3 cash on bonds so i was like 2 years member best update ever btw. bonds are amazing but yes thank you will for making this video brought back some awesome memories.
Very glad you enjoyed it!
@@rswillmissit *was hoping for your outro to play at the end ^^ because that too has some history of your career ;3*
Fantastic. Made me feel nostalgic. As a person with an account created in 2003, I've seen this game grow and falter. This video was very consise and set a very nice timeline showing the ups and downs of all the iterations of Runescape.
Great work on the video. Gave some memories for my history with the game, still playing till this day :)
Holy s*** 27:33, that is my clan! This is so old! The memories!
this was very well done... great video.
Wow, this was great! Excellent job putting all this together.
What a walk down memory lane. Thank you for making this. Great job!
*fights mxt*
*forced to resign*
Wtf jagex, this man was for the people
Chinese shareholders like money.
Like if you played during the 2001 era, i miss those times
Thank you so much for making this video! It's crazy to look at the history and remember the times when some of these updates came out. It's crazy to think I was so young when some of these came out. Great nostalgia trip!
so much happened from 2004 to 2006, back then it really felt like an eternity looking back but being there for all of it makes me feel so lucky. taking turns at the library on the computers to fish lobbies in 30 minute increments sounds so crazy to me now but it was so fun back then and the feeling of finally getting a full rune set was unreal. thank you for this video man seriously!

This makes me feel so old.
on the outside lol i feel young and full of joy when i log into osrs
makes me feel so young
Spent an hour of my life watching this video, No regrets at all. Great video thank you for making it!
Thank you for giving cred to So Wreck3d. Many just skip that he helped us get osrs
Wow! Great video!!
Show
Pourra, ate voce jogou rune? Kkkkkkkk
Amazing video. rswillmissit I appreciate the hard work you put into this video. I honestly hope any and every version of RuneScape as well as your channel continue to thrive for years to come.
Amazing video, thanks for making it! Learned A lot of things that I didn't know of RS. Kudos
An hour? I was going to get some internet courses done for school, change of plans.
What kind of courses are you taking mate? :-)
@Warrior Learning to grow the finest chronic and majoring in spliff rolling.
Well done with this video Will
Very!
Hey man, this was a great video. Brought back some really awesome memories for me. Can’t believe I’ve been playin off and on for 12 years.
This is amazing Really enjoyed it. Thank you for all the hard work you did on making this.
Love the video will, made the tears come out
Emotional and nostalgic; loved it!
It was quite sad when he got past 2011
Great video!
So many memories relived, thanks for all the hard work. 👊
Nå ser jeg hvorfor det tok litt tid før det kom en ny video! Veldig bra laget, stå på!
wtf did i just watch omg effort! Better than any History chn shows i've ever watched.
18 years ago.... wow im 32 now, god how time flys.
I started playing this game late 2001 early 2002 or so and watching this video and seeing all the changes i've experienced firsthand gave me chills. It was also nice being able to see all the changes i missed when i went on hiatus for about 8-10 years, thinking the game would die out in popularity now that other FTP games were flooding the market. I'm so glad you made this video, the rush of nostalgia was worth the hour of my time.
whoa dude, thanks for putting this together. brilliant!
I'm doing an ironman run to honor the original pre-bank freshly launched runescape. And I'm thinking about naming it after The Old Nite to honor him
i started with Runescape, but drove me to WoW. Always be a place in my heart for my first MMORPG.
Well made video, my friend - thank you for this gem!
Litterally the best youtube video of 2018! THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT
This was an amazing video. RS for life.
6 months osrs lifespan? Now we're almost at 6 years, more popular than ever
So much research went into this, nice video dude really enjoyed it
Thank you for all the work you put into this, It brought back a ton of memories.
STILL IN BETA!?!
... Could you imagine if a game THIS popular, THIS powerful, was actually STILL in beta for roughly 20 years?!
Wouldn't be the first time! Though it wasn't 20 years, Minecraft sold millions of copies before they were officially released.
@@rswillmissit ... There's a soundclip for this. I think from Unreal Tournament?
"Holy shit."
Well that explains a lot of stupid decisions runescape was a early access game long before it became popular.
Fortnite is in beta
EARLY ACCESS, REEE
Zezima the legend
Spotted him a few days ago..
@@pedronogueira3134 On RS3 or OSRS?
@@mopsnuf Rs3
I had a flashback meeting him deep in wildy on runescape classic around 2004-2005. I shat my pants as they were 4-5 high levels accompanying him haha
I did not even realize I just watched an hour long video, it felt like 10 - 20mins, good job.
Awesome video! I didn't realize the hour went by so fast until I reached the end lol
Why am i crying so much? this game is just Epic.
Amazing video to end 2018! Cant even imagine how long this masterpiece took to put together.
ive played RS on and off since i was a boy back in RSC. This video was absoultely amazing, must of taken so much time to research everything.
Thankyou for this, i enjoyed every second!
Must've taken a lifetime to get all of those early pictures of rs for such specific events, thank you for making this, really enjoyed watching it O^O
50:32 They all laughed at him when he invested in those hand cannons BUT WHO'S LAUGHING NOW!?
