a recommended jimmy video is the reason i started playing osrs two years ago and i today i failed getting an inferno cape for the 23rd time. i hate my life so much now. thank you jimmy
Keep at it bro
Ive been playing for 15+ years, and I still cant get a firecape.
@@sweis12 leg in air = pray mage, big stomp = pray range, use long range with any range weapon and just focus on swapping between range and mage prayers. When little heal douchenozzles come, click one of them right after a prayer swap and go back to swapping prayers. Repeat that for all four healers then just auto attack Jad focusing on swapping between the two prayers.
The hardest part is not getting too excited. Dealing damage might make for a faster run but the goal is to not die. If you need to stand still not attacking and sorting your prayers out and calming down, then do it. Remember there is nothing on the line and the 45 minutes or so it took to get there is nothing in comparison to any skill related grind. Slow and steady.
Eah, atleast you got your fire cape 😏😉
Bro I just started the inferno grind, you can’t quit because I will too
Seeing J1mmy enjoying RS3 is like finally getting your dad to play video games with you for the first time
Agreed! lol I am glad you had fun J1mmy
Wholesome
Wish I had a father now.
Dad's 58. Still no luck. He enjoys watching me play Flight Simulator though
damn i wonder what the heck that feels like, i imagine incredible.
I have played rs3 for 7 years and I do NOT appreciate you having fun or even considering playing this horrible awful game that I enjoy.
The Berd plays rs3? lmao
i agree the game is trash
7 years, so you are a new player? -Most of the players of this game.
@@magemanne7723 deadass, been playing 20 years just got my cape T.T, it is an addition that shall never be satisfied, and we are about to get the new necro skill so more exp... yay...
@@mintysquinty2989it really isnt. Just you
The vast majority of rs3 UA-cam content is just people talking about news and updates. It feels like J1mmy is kicking down a door and bringing fun content back to this side of the game again and it makes me so happy.
I feel like there IS people doing fun stuff but rs3 is just a game that has... so much news to talk about, like, I haven't recovered fully from the login lockout and so much shit has happened since.
*Waydot waves from the corner*
a friends series is great
Also, the vast majority of ra3 UA-camrs, are end game pvmers.
The good ones are never talked about or giving any credit, sadly
After ten years… finally, a real peace offering. I’m so thankful it’s finally here
The osrs boys can finally fuck with the rs3 boys.
Only took 12 years.
i couldnt stop laughing when the nurse sadly comes walking over, man thats gold
This project was geared towards players who had not played rs3 in years. I’m sure the mods will be happy to see this video because your experience was essentially their intentions
As someone who works full time, has social obligations, and wants to play other video games sometimes, RS3 lets me play a MMORPG and actually build progress on my account without having to spend my entire life on it. 10/10 would recommend
Yeah, that is why I play rs3 over osrs. I can play very little and get easy high xp rates the few hours I have
i get the appeal but it also drags the game down badly. the point of the grind is to learn the game and everything it has to offer. this game is so simple and drops so much xp that you literally dont learn anything. you literally skip 80% of the game doing that. at that point your not even playin anymore. i played rs back in 2003-2009 and i knew the map like i knew my own city. i knew quests, drops and lure. you also had to learn how to pvp because it wasnt just point and attack, it was switching gear and positioning. their was also high risk vs reward. rs3 is just brainless but i get it. its easier to play when you are an adult.
@@nawab256 I think it's a matter of target audience, maybe the 9-5 adults and people who cannot play 24/7 are the target audience for this features. I know I am definitely in that crowd and it appeals to me a lot. Brainless or not I just wanna chill a few hours after work. :/
@@TheTarble1
i definitely agree with you there but you could also do the same with OSRS. ya you'll be grinding more but its not like you have to spent more time. that way over time you learn the game and eventually get to the higher level stuff that you can pick from and enjoy. that's just my take.
@@nawab256 Are you trying to suggest Runescape hasn't always been brainless? lol I remember one of the last things I did in RS before all my friends and I quit was we formed a clan (cause that was just added in) and we went to clan wars. I had some friends over and we had laptops and played some clan wars. My mom graciously had made us lunch and called us over... and we just left our characters while in combat. We won... Auto attacks with good gear... though obviously our group was better than the opponents, but we still won without doing anything really... brainless lol
Runescape 3 has a ton of pre-EOC quests that never made it to OSRS. They're in a weird limbo where they would fit perfectly in OSRS. These quests are actually amazing. They feel like adventures and its very easy to get swept up in the story.
there's a ton of pre-EOC content that would fit really well into OSRS or at least be tweaked to fit.
They have added a few from 2007 but they should add almost everything from before 2012 i missed out on a lot of them because i never got my account on a high level my main account had combat level 85 when i quit to play wow and then a few months later eoc came out.
@@slayer100141 Chosen Commander is a must. WGS is the original grandmaster quest so it has a lot of value for the history of the game.
I wish we had Chosen Commander in OSRS.
I want while guthix sleeps
I actually recently started playing RS3 this last month. In fact, it's the first time I've ever tried playing ANY runescape game, ever. All I can say is WOW, THE QUESTS!!! THE FRIGGIN QUESTS!! They actually make you feel like you did something. They have little cutscenes and stories that are so awesome and don't take themselves too seriously but still provide very satisfying gameplay! I keep saying it over and over - the quests I have played in RS3 remind me SO MUCH of the optional quests in Zelda: OOT, and Zelda: MM on the n64. Even some of the "boss battles" at the end of the quests remind me of zelda, having to learn the attack pattern of the enemy, work around it, to do whatever it is you need in order to deal damage.
It all started with me, for whatever reason, thinking "Maybe it would be fun to play WoW again"..... and I sat and thought about this a lot over a period of several weeks....but all I could think of is how boring and long the early parts of the game are, and how many times i've already done that, and debating if it was worth it to do all of it again just to access the more recent content. Bottom line is that WoW quests "TELL" instead of showing, and at the end of the day I couldn't find it in me to play that game again.
.......BUT THEN! It was brought to my attention that several members of the HAM radio group I hang out with like to play RS3......and since I have never played runescape at all, in any form, decided to give it a shot.... and holy CRAP I don't regret it! MY CURRENT GOAL is actually to take the game nice and slow and enjoy the quests for awhile before I start to actually grind hard.
Runescape 3 is quickly becoming "comfort media" for me..... a game I default to, a game i can play while doing other things, and a game that is literally unexplored by me at all.
enjoy man, as a player since classic I wish I could relive what you just explained haha, you're in for an adventure of a life time and a grind that never ends lol
You offer a very nice perspective.
A tip if you're interested in story progression: there's sorting options for your quest list. There's a setting that pretty much arranges the quests based on chronology lore-wise. That way you'll be able to follow the story in order to avoid feeling lost.
i very much suggest doing the low-combat quests before you get so strong as to trivialise them
Returned back to RS3 since having a 4-5 year break, Im having a blast. RS3 Is really fun as an adult who doesnt have the time I did when I was playing this game as a kid. Ive been doing Archeology and thats really one amazing skill. The lore behind everything is fantastic. Im now starting all the quests I never did years ago like Desert Treasure and having so much fun.
Same situation here. Archaeology absolute favourite, it's genius
This is also what a lot of people seem to forget when they call RS3 "EasyScape" or that you can level up too fast... The game has *28* different skills, some of them go beyond 99 and requires 8x more experience to 'max out' than said 99's. Many of the people that played RS back in the day have grown up and have lives to attend to, and don't have the time to grind like they used to, just like you mentioned. RS3 simply caters more towards having people experience the new and exciting content released, a lot of it that happens to be towards the end-game (for relevancy's sake).
Glad to see you're enjoying the game again! The lore sure is amazing, and if there's one suggestion I'd give to people trying out RS3 - *Don't space-bar through quests!* - you might actually find that you'll enjoy questing a lot more when you understand what's going on and get to part-take in all the little intricacies of the dialogues/cutscenes! :)
Lol I’m currently doing archeology too. I never played as a kid tho so I’m a new player
I gave rs3 a chance a few years ago and realized its actually really underrated the game is just held back by the invasive MTX
Invasive MTX is why I don't want to waste my time.
Thank god Ironman mode exists at least
to be fair, RS3 probably wouldn't exist if it weren't for invasive mtx
Forgot how much fun RS3 actually is and questing is the main thing that got me hooked again. Ended up getting QP cape on FSW and some of these story lines are outright insane. Very excited to hear your thoughts on Sliske and the Elder God Wars story lines if you ever end up playing them.
@@slayer100141 I think that's just your subjective opinion, and that's OK. But not everyone feels that way. I like it a lot.
@@adoorknob7053 he is right, the new quests are shoundn stupid bullshit. Is just content without substance, all flash woth names and powercreep everytime mow nothing sounds scary anymore.
@@youcankillgod right and wrong about this are just personal opinion. I'm not saying you can't feel that way. I'm just saying it's not objective fact. Plenty of us like it.
@@youcankillgod literally Google the word subjective
The story is what I love most about this game. Sliske is actually one of my all time favorite villains, he's such a dick lol. Playing the quests as they came out was great too just due to the amount of time you had to let that fuckers shit stew with you. Sliske's Endgame was one of the most cathartic things after literal years of him dunking on you
Honestly Rs3 is great for people who don’t have all the time in the world to play. Would love to see a 10+ part series from J1mmy
it's great even if you do, because it has actual interesting quests for all levels and combat that isn't a leftover from the 1990s, unlike a certain other game people still play to this day...
the pvm is 100x harder aswell due to the MMO like combat bars, its actually alot of fun (coming from an osrs elitist)
thats cool and all but it makes me feel like when I get a 99 that it doesnt mean as much. I want to be rewarded and triple exp doesnt exactly do that.
@@johnfisher8401 having an overall enjoyable game experience that doesn't force you to do relentlessly soulcrushing grinding, has decent combat and good quests > getting a high number in a videogame
i will never understand people like you
Every single skill has the ability to either get fast XP by being engaged, or slow EXP while being mostly AFK.
I'm gonna need a Dr. Boobs and Sad Nurse series now where you just go around questing but with your own commentary as the characters XD
This video was so freakin' entertaining J1mmy! It's great to see you having so much fun playing a game and making content out of something that you're enjoying. The doctor/nurse dynamic was hysterical - I lost it when your friend came walking into the scene dressed as a nurse all sad haha
That ending with Dr Boobs and the nurse had me dying
please more of rs3, even commentaries like that was extremely enjoyable content
I would love to see a series on RS3 quests. I really think J1mmy would appreciate what they've done with Runescape's story. I don't necessarily care about all of the small quests but watching him play through the last couple questlines from Missing, Presumed Death onwards would be a great watch.
RS3 quests are absolute bangers, the power fantasy is top tier. Interacting with gods in a conflict that controls the fate of the world, crazy shit.
I actually disagree and go more with J1mmy's thoughts. OSRS is charming because every quest is basically just some wandering adventurer getting caught up in shit that doesn't really matter. Nothing is on any sort of power level, and the drama is created by the game's politics and factions. When all is said and done, we feel more the absolute fucking thrill of getting the Fremennik to faction with the Falador Knights and kill some dragon much more than we remember the dragon fight. RS3 went too far with the savior and gods shit in my opinion.
@@glumreaper8885 but with the whole guthix death thing and so much more they gave us such a amazing backstory to ancient magics and what it really comes from, and exspanded on the games world and where that magic comes from more then anything going on in osrs
I got back into RS3 for a few months this year and had a blast. My biggest compliment - the mining and smithing rework was AMAZING. If OSRS had the same (or at least similar) system implemented people would be so happy. My biggest complaint - daily scape of course, but also agility. Coming from OSRS agility courses are actually a thing, meanwhile in RS3 I had to use a shortcut over and over for 10 levels if I wanted even decent exp.
Silverhawk Feathers.
However I agree having an active training method like rooftops would be nice for ironmen, I don't touch Agility on my iron outside of beach event and such.
@@onimuri I was an ironman, so I had to actually train the skill.
@Caramel Honey G The wiki and youtube guides all agree thats how you train agility rofl
@@fuckyoutube647 did you like only read the first two words of my comment? lol
@@onimuri No? Just reiterating for people who don't know that your suggestion is one of the P2W features that totally ignores how broken the skill is.
really loved this video man! glad you finally found your way with RS3 and see the great things it has to offer :) Both are great games and it is great seeing someone like you making a video like this
14:35 love that transition
I see J1mmy, I click instantly.
RS3 is a parasite that has stolen RS2 updates.
`i thought it was just me.
@@DudeSoWin cry more
@@DudeSoWin That doesn't even make any sense. RS3 is the successor to RS2, how could it have "stolen" things from it?
@@crossover5606 A negligent apprentice usurped the master creator. Spare not the rod of measure for their standards are clearly slipping.
Glad you gave the quests a shot.
Some of the best content in Runescape's history, in my opinion, has been from the quests.
Well, Jimbo, it's not often I genuinely get a laugh out of a RuneScape video. The Doctor/Nurse bit had me cracking up!
I enjoyed the rest of the video but that last bit at the end there really had me going!
Love to see this. There really is a lot to love about rs3 once to push past the early learning pains
Finally, I hope you keep playing and even grab yourself a Quest Cape eventually, you'll love it, lore in this game is insane, I strongly recommend going for vampire ones (River of Blood is the last) because the rewards are awesome and the lore is too. Love your content man, keep playing!!
I've been doing my own By Release through Runescape 3 for a while. I never understood everyone's absolute hatred of Runescape 3. And I'm glad that you made this video, it goes a long way in showing that people having preconceived biases about a game can really ruin experiences when the actual experience is pretty good.
Mostly the Pay2Win and predatory MTX system is why most people including myself log off of RS3 the minute we login
@@menmaro I haven't spent a penny on rs since the Pay2Win was introduced. I love that its there because it lets me use rsgp to buy bonds to fund my mems. I gave OSRS a shot when it was new, seemed like a waste of time after putting in about a month of play. That's the beauty of it though, each player base gets a game they enjoy.
@@menmaro I think me playing in Ironman mode just has most of this turned off for me.
@@menmaro rs3 is not pay2win at all. don't say that. It's simply not true.
The graphics look worse than oldschool. feels like fortnite the mmo.
I always look forward to your videos man; love the dry humor and your vibe! Keep it up :D
I am so excited to see rs3 content from one of my favorite creators, I’m glad you’re having fun.
Another banger of a video! Absolutely love your content J1mmy! I may give RS3 another shot as you're right, the initial UI is very intimidating but I'm sure with some tweaks it'll be solid.
Trust me, with the customization options available to you, you can make your rs3 interface exactly like oldschool or any way you want it. It's the tits.
Thank you J1mmy. I’m just glad you’re having fun, especially for someone like you. However wild RS3 has become, you took the time and actually enjoyed. Very nice of you.
J1mmy enjoying RS3 gives me life
Thanks for the shout out!
ps, you lowkey look like my doppelganger :D
great vid j1m! happy to see an osrs player enjoying rs3
Been playing RS3 ironman for 8 years. Maxed and have had a crazy good time. Maybe people will listen to you and try it instead of instantly going lizard brain "rs3 bad" mode. Really happy with the team's decision to split the lore of OSRS and RS3 as well. Really cool stories in RS3 and they expand on a lot of the past history of RS. Learning more about the Gods and the creation of Gielinor and learning more about the Elder Gods has been awesome. Very cool how they fit our character into the narrative and even though I haven't been playing regularly as much, I'll always come back for the quests and the story.
The only thing that made me play rs3 is the idea of training summoning and get a penguin to follow me. I want the penguin pet so bad, why don't they have that in oldschool??
Questing by release order definitely wouldn't work in RS3, because of some removals of older ones and some changes to miniquests instead of quests, so you wouldn't have enough QP to do dragon slayer, for example, if you go by release order. However, RS3 has a "Timeline" order you can sort by in the quest list, which is the true canonical story order of the full quest list - that's the actual recommended order to do them in on RS3.
bro thank god u made this like i play os and rs3 but specigically started a series about bringing new players and osrs players and helping them get set up!
Repping the stache and wearing the itswill merch. J1mmy gets it.
The last scene made me laugh so hard I'm literally crying that was gold
Honestly though I'm gonna say it. I play both games and both games are fantastic. I know Sick Nerd made the transition over to RS3 on an ironman (personally is the best way to play the game without the MTX and a great progression) and he had a lot of fun. I'm actually so happy you made a video on this because the game really is a lot of fun and there's a lot of players who wanna help people learn in this game. Honestly J1mmy, I'd love to watch more rs3 and even if you streamed it I'd love to pop in. The later quests during the 6th age are so great and I'm so excited to see more!
Glad you are enjoying rs3! Would love another video of you doing stuff you like in this game!
Great video, I don't play RS3 much anymore, but the new quests are always fun to come back too :D
Ed3 feels like such a cheese but I'm still kinda glad it's a thing. Since we have to tell you guys "it gets better later" it's nice to have something getting you to that "later" part. And I think it's why jagex doesn't remove the crazy xp
And higher tier PVM is heavily influenced by the invention skill, so maxing combat really doesn't mean anything if you don't train invention.
I play both RS3 and OSRS and I really feel that RS3 gets a lot of hate from people who know very little about it. Really cool to see you approach it open minded and enjoy the content that's there. The questing is great and it's a really fun game. I think a lot of OSRS players would really, really enjoy it.
10:39 play it on repeat. We're never getting another one he says
7:39 That was totally me! Never tried RuneScape again until I came across one of your OSRS videos, then I decided to tried that instead.
As a former avid RS3 player I gotta say at the end there, that is the most accurate representation of the community I found there
- someone talking about others being mad
- someone insulting some rando
- two twin pigtails girl toons dancing at G.E
- some guy just trying his best skilling
- someone just laughing
thats the place I remember :') mostly got burnt out from playing so many countless ages and falling out of touch with former friends there, found a nicer home in OSRS; only reason I dont play either right now is because MMO's in general kinda gatekeep me from playing through games I have in my backlog that also need attention, I will return to RS3 to complete the few quests I havent done though, I think you'd really like the Zaros questline Jimmy :) great music too
I went down an RS3 wiki rabbit hole the other day, and holy shit.
I wanted to look up the best money makers so I could point and laugh at the inflated economy and ended up seeing that the best money maker was killing Zamorak.
Not K’ril, Zamorak. You fight Zamorak, the god. I needed an explanation.
And so I started reading up on the lore and shit that happens in the quests. I learned about the elder gods, I learned about the Mahjarrat, I got to see images of what all the gods looked like (Guthix straight up looks like an NFT), I read up on the quest where Guthix fucking DIES - my god, I think I almost wanna play this game… or at least watch someone do it.
the quests from 2011+ start to get very interesting
To be fair a lot of this was already set up and still is to an extent in OSRS. Guardians of the Rift directly references Jas, one of the Elder Gods. And every quest involving a Mahjarrat is labelled as such (Hazeel, Akthanakos, Enakhra, Azzanadra, Khazard, Lucien etc)
I kill Zamorak with the broken version of the staff Zamorak used to kill Zaros.
Honestly if your a fan of storylines just play rs3 for quests. With FSW your get the stats needed within a few hours and can then grind all the quests down.
You can filter the quests by timeline instead of release date so you can fully understand the story line.
I'm down to the last 15 or so quests and will get them done when I finish upgrading gear
Yep, a by release rs3 series would be super good just for the storytelling. Idc if it’s an Ironman account or not.
*edit. I found a series like this! A youtuber called "Seal". Only has 60 subs.
I had the strangest feeling watching your ad read, because on Audible i acquired and listened to the audiobook of exactly Terry Pratchett's "Guards! Guards!" only one month ago.
Talk about feeling like your target audience in that moment. Never have i been so called out!
OH MY GOD THE DOCTOR/NURSE SKIT.
I can't 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Taskman (same as Tedious plays but rs3) is what got me really into runescape 3. Especially since it was overwhelming at first. Great community too!
J1mmy reads Discworld, a true man of culture
Everyime i see a new J1mmy video on my homepage, my day is made
Jimmy, yes! Thank you! I grew up playing RuneScape, what is now called OSRS, but because my account from those days is on what is RS3, I play that. Thank you for finally taking the time to enjoy this game and talk about some of the issues that people have when they are new players or transitioning from OSRS. I genuinely think that there is a lot of fun to be had in the game, especially for people coming from OSRS, but I also spend a lot of time telling other people in the game about UA-cam videos to help with the user interface, and explaining other little bits. Awesome video as always. 😄
Good to see OSRS players enjoying RS3 FSW. I maxed on RS3 and even for me FSW has been a breath of fresh air, I love it.
For an OSRS UA-camr, Jimmy has a remarkably nuanced view of RS3.
What?
He just kind of ignored everything that's wrong with the game and went "eh, it was actually kind of of fun." That's a fair opinion to have, but that's the opposite of nuanced.

So J1mmy has joined my elite "1 content creator I know of that reads Terry Pratchett books" club, now making it the "2 content creators I know of that read Terry Pratchett books" club. Congrats on having good taste in *true* literature.
Great vid. We need more j1mmy rs3 content.
I would love to see an RS3 series from some more OSRS creators TBH. I love the lore and have been hoping for a quest series from J1mmy for ages, kinda upset that he mentioned in this one that he'll never do one of those. I'd still like to see a progress series from start to end game and more though. I'd defo watch all episodes if J1mmy or Framed would make one.
the miniclip picture at 13:52 gave me goosebumps and flashbacks
I have never touched this game in my life. But your majestic voice, the glistening gameshow microphone and entertaining commentary has allowed me to grasp my computer mouse and click "play now free".
I thought it was always good. Despite everything I've always been along for the RuneScape ride.
I used to hate questing in RS3. I only did it to unlock things that could help me grind out skills faster. I used to skip all of the dialogue and cutscenes whenever possible, but now on FSW I have actually been paying attention to the quests and I’ve been enjoying them! I haven’t done too many of them, but the ones I have done which were somewhat shown in this video were great! And yes, ED3 is broken haha!
Dude, that RS3 lore is phenomenal. The quests are the only reason I still play 3, albeit not as much as OS.
J1mmy you are slowly morphing into itswill from the merch to the moustache
I just play in legacy mode and i love it, so simple, just like runescape 2, and you can do almost every boss.
I'm giving this comment its 4th like, and I dont expect it to get more than 5, but goddamnit I respect your gumption kid
Man I know you won't do a by release on the rs3 quests, but I'd love at least like, a REVIEW of some of the top hitting quest(lines). Stuff like the RS3 vampire questline and the Majahrrat quests. I'm talkin halo level story in some of these quests
"stay in the middle"
ohohoho what a genius prankster
Nice to see you put the time in to try the game fully, and that you enjoy it! RS3 doesn't get nearly enough attention.
I can't explain how happy this makes me to see Jimmy finally enjoying RS3 and its previous iterations as much as I've enjoyed it for decades
RS3 is barely one decade old tho
@@K-Nyne edited it for you mate
@@K-Nyne it's literally 20 years old.
@@itsmeeli7463 yeah the entire Runescape game. In this context we're specifically speaking about the RS3 version. So, a decade.
J1mmy I would love to see some vids / streams of yoou doing the RS3 quests. ( don't need to be iron/by release but would love to see your first experience / opinion of the story)
Someone is smashing the Movember mustache, looking great J1mmy!
“It gets harder when it goes up”-J1mmy, 2022.
Honestly this kinda makes me wanna give RS3 a try again
It’s alright to be fair as long as you don’t like pvp, way easier to gain levels than old school and the combat mechanics aren’t bad once you get used to it
Please do a series on RS3. Even for the quests. I have been waiting for this moment and it's as great as I thought it would be. This video gave me so much dopamine and now I'm sad it's over.
I remember when eoc first came out and just avsolutely trivialized pvp and boss combat. Coming from other action bar MMOs, I had rotations figured out within the first week and just wrecked everyone who had only ever played runescape. It was crazy how within a few days you could go from being spanked in soul wars by ancients to being untouchable with 2 d scims. I play guild wars now but maybe I'll go back and give rs3 another try
A month ago I ironically made an RS3 account, mostly just to check out the updated graphics and fuck around. Now I'm over 2k total level and enjoying the shit out of RS3. Coming from a maxed player on OSRS, kinda just felt done with that when I had done all quests, diaries and maxed all stats.
It’s really nice to see RS3 doing pretty well, I don’t think I have plans to play it anytime soon but I might look into playing it sometime in the future.
RS3 has always been fun and I'm tired of pretending it's not
It was not fun in 2013.
Ending reminds me of when I got the Captain title. I bought some pirate clothes changed my name and roleplayed as Captain Crunch.
As a 200m xp all skills RS3 player who consumes a lot of content both OSRS and RS3, it was fantastic to see J1mmy actually give RS3 a shot. Especially him enjoying the lore. I get the hate for early game RS3, but the endgame is top notch. Once fresh start worlds join the main game, I would fund some bils of GP to see him work through the Elder Gods storyline that just wrapped up with GWD3.
Both games are amazing and I'm tired of not saying it lmao.
People really have to give RS3 a chance.
I gave it a shot before, it's not bad but the daily chores really burned me out, yea you can "not do them" but then you feel super inefficent. I don't really care about the MTX scheme because I played an iron anyway but the dailys are the worst part about RS3 and there are so many of them like 20+ they can fill up your entire daily schedual for maximum efficancy. If RS3 got rid of the dailys I think more OSRS players would give RS3 an actual shot. But as it is now this is the big scarecrow for OSRS players.
I’m a completionist in rs3, love hearing you to be enjoying the game dude.
That was a video I never expected to see from you! Refreshing as hell! Even as a former no lifer rs3 your concerns are perfectly valid. I’ve found switching between the two versions every couple months helps with burn out
I don’t think anyone would mind you de-ironing by release as long as you still get the quest items manually. Easing the grind for faster content is always better!
Can you finish the quest series, for the love of bandos
Bandos*
That doctor nurse montage at the end was hilarious
Im a nurse and laughed way too hard at the Dr, Nurse Bit. that shit was hysterical
Most skills in rs3 have 1m+ xp an hour method. The game is really built for adults with full time jobs and families
The worst part about the new quests is having to do archeology
I'm now imagining a bunch of people trying to assemble a real cannon outside of Jagex headquarters, thank you J1mmy
Great game, underrated and im so happy you made a video on it. I play both games and dont understand the hate towards rs3 anymore
the ending with the sad nurse LOOOL
12:58 the way he’s just walking up to zammy
I remember randomly commenting in a post of yours asking you to play RS3 FSW, thanks for making this video! Enjoyed it quite a lot Mr Dr.
Yes J1mmy! Terry Pratchett is great, glad you're reading (or at least listening) to him!
Great point about the UI, fixing it or making the process simpler or even providing a tutorial on set up for new players should be a higher priority for Jagex.
Once I learned some of the fundamentals of pvm like what ability to prevent being stunned and the basics of doing dps rs3 was incredibly fun and it's true you don't have to learn what specific abilities do until later on in mid level.
