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
@@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.
@@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...
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.
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.
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! :)
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.
@@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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
@@Psyshimmer Tbf its how jagex even stayed afloat and ran runescape 3 and osrs to this day. People give rs 3 shit for the eoc update but it was a good step in the right direction. I don't see why people hate on the combat and say they ruined the game for them or destroyed a game they cheerish and love. If anything mtx did not he eoc. Mtx is just an industry standard not a jagex thing so stop saying it ruined the game the gaming industry did. Just people don't like change and see that rs 3 is literally osrs. There is still a lot of grind in rs 3 just not as much as osrs has and that's okay because everyone likes or doesnt like grindy games.
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...
@@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
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
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.
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!
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??
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
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.
@@01Chris02 polls are the reason OSRS missed out on a lot of great content, because of a narrow minded playerbase. and they will never remove MTX, because those literally finance both games. no MTX = no Runescape + no OSRS
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 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.
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.
@@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.
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!
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.
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
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
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.
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)
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.
J1mmy mentioned that the dwarf storyline that dies off in osrs was (naturally) continued in RS3 and that it was a pretty banging questline so I was already considering it... I still want to get my main osrs account QC first, I think. Juuuuuuust after I get phoenix from wt. 544kc down rngesus knows how many more to go.
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. 😄
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.
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.
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
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!
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
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.
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
i absolutely love watching runescape players approach the traditional MMO action bar system runescape is really chill for giving access to the automatic control system. and honestly it's pretty nice
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!
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.
@@danilwerlin-xp4hd 3:28 *After talking about all the grievances people have with the worlds* "You know, I completely understand... But shut the fuck up, these worlds are awesome." Literally what I described. Ignoring everything wrong and going "I don't care, it's fun".
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.
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.
Ever since Legacy combat was added I just went back to RuneScape 3, put on Replica Metal Armor to look even more old school and just stuck with that. Didn’t really feel the drive to just start all over to play Old School. Especially since I have been playing since 2005 and made about 17 years worth of progress from RuneScape 2 into 3.
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.
I used to play rs3 and watched osrs yt content, some rs3 bosses require a lot of skill and good teams so without either you will struggle. Some solo bosses require a lot of gear to even kill - elite dungeon bosses, ambi, solak, telos etc.
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
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 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!
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 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.
The best solution for UI is changing it into legacy but keeping combat regular. I've been playing like that for years and its great. The whole UI was always cluttered for me and don't think I would ever play that way again. Also why is nobody talking about the music in RS3? It's sooooo good and relaxing.
@@HeavyMetalGamingHD Not true really, haven't missed out on anything if you just pay attention when needed. What type of information gets missed? But yeah of course, the solution is always fix it, but use what you can.
@@knowledge4741 you really miss out when it comes to different hotbars and customizability. you will lose time by clicking more and switching between menus instead of having them open all at the same time
I've played Rs3 to max (pre-necromancy) and then immediately shifted toward osrs to see the "other side" and all I can say is: people are a bunch of babies. If you genuinely think osrs is a "perfect game", you are absolutely delusional and here is why: Why is it rs3 is playable with no 3rd party client but absolutely NOBODY plays osrs without runelite? If the game was as perfect as you think, you wouldnt need it, because jagex would be doing a great job at keeping the game fresh with updates and QOL stuff. Both games absolutely could take notes from eachother on how to improve their respective games, like rs3 could absolutely fix the UI issue by making the default be OSRS' default, then letting the player customize their UI from there. It would be much less confusing for new players and you wouldnt need to spend the first 2 hours of "gameplay" on the game just fucking around with the UI. And for those who complain about the "invasive MTX". Im gonna give you the same advice that you would give someone complaining about dying in the wildy: DONT DO IT THEN. Simple shit! Dont touch the mtx and play the game! If youre that insecure that you are mad that someone used the mtx to get like, 5k exp in a skill, you are a genuine child who needs to grow up. End of the day you will both max, and neither of you is superior to the other because you have a higher number than the other or one of you didnt use the mtx that is given out. Grow up. Rs3 is a FUN game, but you need to get your head out of the Nostalgia pits and try the damn game without an expectation that it will be OSRS, cause newsflash: its not OSRS, its rs3! Im currently playing osrs fulltime (havent been on rs3 in like 6 months as of now) and osrs is FUN as well! Its DIFFERENT, but fun! It has its quirks and drawbacks, like some skills (looking at you agility, RC and mining.....) that could desperately use a massive exp increase, as the skills are just a boring blockade to doing actual fun content in osrs. But im not sitting here going "omg osrs is a shit game exp rates are dog rs3 superior reeeeeee" cause of a few flaws. Its still fun overall and im gonna go max on osrs as well (yes, even with sailing......ugh).
maxed on both and the reliance of osrs script clients along with only doing the same 3 raids as end game made me shift to rs3. Dont need a 3rd party cheating software called a client and way more end game content its not even close
i started playing and spent about 10 minutes editting the interface and accidentally clicked on something that with no warning reset all of my progress and then i uninstalled it again
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.
I started rs3 about a year ago. I enjoy it so much more than osrs. I am in mid late game pvm now and it truly gets better once you max. It actually means something in rs3 when they say the game begins after you max. Good luck!
I started playing RS3 at the beginning of 2022. All of my friends, except one, still play OSRS. They refuse to try RS3. Some people are just too close minded to try new stuff.
xp rates are better at ed3 if u were upgrading ur staff :P also super glad your having fun with rs3 i watch your oldschool content and dont play im so happy to see you enjoying the version of the game i love!
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!
From my experience, the best way to enjoy RS3 is with an ironman account. You won't have to worry about XP rates. I always hated not being able to play during double XP, then feeling like I'm only getting half XP the rest of the time. Buying out skills was also very boring. If you want prayer high, you just buy bones and go to an altar. For herblore, you just buy all the herbs. You end up just doing one thing that makes money to not have to level anything else for long. It's more efficient to drop logs from woodcutting, then buying them for firemaking, because you can get that money faster than it would take to bank those logs. I leveled woodcutting to 99, but I have no real reason to have it. I feel like they need to rework the combat. Revolution was a great idea but it defeats the point of the ability system. There's also confusing stuff like 4 tick auto attacking, which I hate because I feel like I'm not doing all the damage I could be, because I don't understand how the bug(which they call a feature) works. I get the sense that they should make the revolution bar with basic abilities the optimal way to fight. The game shouldn't be slower than manual players. Only have the player use threshold and ultimate abilities. Also don't lock abilities behind a boss that requires 43 quests that require at least a total level of 1937 in various skills, while it also being a team boss. Most players will end up buying the skill book, so no one has a huge issue with it... except ironmans.
If you want a taste of bosses with real mechanics, I recommend checking out the God wars dungeon 2 bosses and the arch glacor from God wars 3. Gwd2 has bosses that drop level 80 gear and simple, reaction based mechanics like area effects to move away from and minions, and it gives you a great taste of what some of the bossing in the endgame will look like while not being too complex. Arch glacor has an awesome system where you can choose to enable and disable individual special attack mechanics before the fight so that you can practice how to respond to them super easily, it's awesome.

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.
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
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
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
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 couldnt stop laughing when the nurse sadly comes walking over, man thats gold
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
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
please more of rs3, even commentaries like that was extremely enjoyable content
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
@@Psyshimmer Tbf its how jagex even stayed afloat and ran runescape 3 and osrs to this day. People give rs 3 shit for the eoc update but it was a good step in the right direction. I don't see why people hate on the combat and say they ruined the game for them or destroyed a game they cheerish and love. If anything mtx did not he eoc. Mtx is just an industry standard not a jagex thing so stop saying it ruined the game the gaming industry did. Just people don't like change and see that rs 3 is literally osrs. There is still a lot of grind in rs 3 just not as much as osrs has and that's okay because everyone likes or doesnt like grindy games.
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
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
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.
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 gave the quests a shot.
Some of the best content in Runescape's history, in my opinion, has been from the quests.
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.
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??
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
14:35 love that transition
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.
How to make RS3 popular.
Remove FOMO content.
Remove microtransactions.
Include polls.
Done
We don't need polls. Atleast not the way OSRS does it
@@TheXshot no
@@01Chris02 polls are the reason OSRS missed out on a lot of great content, because of a narrow minded playerbase. and they will never remove MTX, because those literally finance both games. no MTX = no Runescape + no OSRS
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 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.
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 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!
I see J1mmy, I click instantly.
RS3 is a parasite that has stolen RS2 updates.
`i thought it was just me.

@@DudeSoWin That doesn't even make any sense. RS3 is the successor to RS2, how could it have "stolen" things from it?

Thanks for the shout out!
ps, you lowkey look like my doppelganger :D
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.
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
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!
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
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.
J1mmy mentioned that the dwarf storyline that dies off in osrs was (naturally) continued in RS3 and that it was a pretty banging questline so I was already considering it... I still want to get my main osrs account QC first, I think.
Juuuuuuust after I get phoenix from wt. 544kc down rngesus knows how many more to go.
great vid j1m! happy to see an osrs player enjoying rs3
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. 😄
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.
The last scene made me laugh so hard I'm literally crying that was gold
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.
Repping the stache and wearing the itswill merch. J1mmy gets it.
J1mmy enjoying RS3 gives me life
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
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.
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!
I thought it was always good. Despite everything I've always been along for the RuneScape ride.
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
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
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.
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 absolutely love watching runescape players approach the traditional MMO action bar system
runescape is really chill for giving access to the automatic control system. and honestly it's pretty nice
J1mmy reads Discworld, a true man of culture
the miniclip picture at 13:52 gave me goosebumps and flashbacks
Great vid. We need more j1mmy rs3 content.

Talk about feeling like your target audience in that moment. Never have i been so called out!
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.

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.
Dude, that RS3 lore is phenomenal. The quests are the only reason I still play 3, albeit not as much as OS.
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.
Ever since Legacy combat was added I just went back to RuneScape 3, put on Replica Metal Armor to look even more old school and just stuck with that. Didn’t really feel the drive to just start all over to play Old School. Especially since I have been playing since 2005 and made about 17 years worth of progress from RuneScape 2 into 3.
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.
I used to play rs3 and watched osrs yt content, some rs3 bosses require a lot of skill and good teams so without either you will struggle. Some solo bosses require a lot of gear to even kill - elite dungeon bosses, ambi, solak, telos etc.
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.

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
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 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!
OH MY GOD THE DOCTOR/NURSE SKIT.
I can't 😂😂😂😂😂😂
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
holy fuck this video was so good lmao. i really hope we get the occasional update video on the adventures of dr boobs and basic nurse
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.
The best solution for UI is changing it into legacy but keeping combat regular. I've been playing like that for years and its great. The whole UI was always cluttered for me and don't think I would ever play that way again.
Also why is nobody talking about the music in RS3? It's sooooo good and relaxing.
nah the best solution for the UI is simply to build a proper UI for your needs. Legacy is not very good. You miss out on so much information you need
@@HeavyMetalGamingHD
Not true really, haven't missed out on anything if you just pay attention when needed.
What type of information gets missed?
But yeah of course, the solution is always fix it, but use what you can.
@@knowledge4741 you really miss out when it comes to different hotbars and customizability. you will lose time by clicking more and switching between menus instead of having them open all at the same time
I've played Rs3 to max (pre-necromancy) and then immediately shifted toward osrs to see the "other side" and all I can say is: people are a bunch of babies.
If you genuinely think osrs is a "perfect game", you are absolutely delusional and here is why: Why is it rs3 is playable with no 3rd party client but absolutely NOBODY plays osrs without runelite? If the game was as perfect as you think, you wouldnt need it, because jagex would be doing a great job at keeping the game fresh with updates and QOL stuff.
Both games absolutely could take notes from eachother on how to improve their respective games, like rs3 could absolutely fix the UI issue by making the default be OSRS' default, then letting the player customize their UI from there. It would be much less confusing for new players and you wouldnt need to spend the first 2 hours of "gameplay" on the game just fucking around with the UI.
And for those who complain about the "invasive MTX". Im gonna give you the same advice that you would give someone complaining about dying in the wildy: DONT DO IT THEN. Simple shit! Dont touch the mtx and play the game! If youre that insecure that you are mad that someone used the mtx to get like, 5k exp in a skill, you are a genuine child who needs to grow up.
End of the day you will both max, and neither of you is superior to the other because you have a higher number than the other or one of you didnt use the mtx that is given out. Grow up.
Rs3 is a FUN game, but you need to get your head out of the Nostalgia pits and try the damn game without an expectation that it will be OSRS, cause newsflash: its not OSRS, its rs3!
Im currently playing osrs fulltime (havent been on rs3 in like 6 months as of now) and osrs is FUN as well! Its DIFFERENT, but fun! It has its quirks and drawbacks, like some skills (looking at you agility, RC and mining.....) that could desperately use a massive exp increase, as the skills are just a boring blockade to doing actual fun content in osrs. But im not sitting here going "omg osrs is a shit game exp rates are dog rs3 superior reeeeeee" cause of a few flaws. Its still fun overall and im gonna go max on osrs as well (yes, even with sailing......ugh).
maxed on both and the reliance of osrs script clients along with only doing the same 3 raids as end game made me shift to rs3. Dont need a 3rd party cheating software called a client and way more end game content its not even close
i started playing and spent about 10 minutes editting the interface and accidentally clicked on something that with no warning reset all of my progress and then i uninstalled it again
Yes J1mmy! Terry Pratchett is great, glad you're reading (or at least listening) to him!
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.
Im a nurse and laughed way too hard at the Dr, Nurse Bit. that shit was hysterical
10:39 play it on repeat. We're never getting another one he says
12:58 the way he’s just walking up to zammy
I started rs3 about a year ago. I enjoy it so much more than osrs. I am in mid late game pvm now and it truly gets better once you max. It actually means something in rs3 when they say the game begins after you max. Good luck!
I started playing RS3 at the beginning of 2022. All of my friends, except one, still play OSRS. They refuse to try RS3. Some people are just too close minded to try new stuff.
xp rates are better at ed3 if u were upgrading ur staff :P also super glad your having fun with rs3 i watch your oldschool content and dont play im so happy to see you enjoying the version of the game i love!
People who can’t figure out the UI reminds me of trying to teach your grandparents about how to use their cell phones… 😂
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!
the ending with the sad nurse LOOOL
That doctor nurse montage at the end was hilarious
1:15 Good one Jim, very original
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.
that last two minutes is maybe one of the greatest moments ive ever witnessed on this godforsaken site
From my experience, the best way to enjoy RS3 is with an ironman account. You won't have to worry about XP rates. I always hated not being able to play during double XP, then feeling like I'm only getting half XP the rest of the time. Buying out skills was also very boring. If you want prayer high, you just buy bones and go to an altar. For herblore, you just buy all the herbs. You end up just doing one thing that makes money to not have to level anything else for long. It's more efficient to drop logs from woodcutting, then buying them for firemaking, because you can get that money faster than it would take to bank those logs. I leveled woodcutting to 99, but I have no real reason to have it.
I feel like they need to rework the combat. Revolution was a great idea but it defeats the point of the ability system. There's also confusing stuff like 4 tick auto attacking, which I hate because I feel like I'm not doing all the damage I could be, because I don't understand how the bug(which they call a feature) works. I get the sense that they should make the revolution bar with basic abilities the optimal way to fight. The game shouldn't be slower than manual players. Only have the player use threshold and ultimate abilities. Also don't lock abilities behind a boss that requires 43 quests that require at least a total level of 1937 in various skills, while it also being a team boss. Most players will end up buying the skill book, so no one has a huge issue with it... except ironmans.
Lol that Elite Dungeon bit is so fucking accurate.
Most people I know were pretty happy about them removing PvP from the Wilderness
If you want a taste of bosses with real mechanics, I recommend checking out the God wars dungeon 2 bosses and the arch glacor from God wars 3. Gwd2 has bosses that drop level 80 gear and simple, reaction based mechanics like area effects to move away from and minions, and it gives you a great taste of what some of the bossing in the endgame will look like while not being too complex. Arch glacor has an awesome system where you can choose to enable and disable individual special attack mechanics before the fight so that you can practice how to respond to them super easily, it's awesome.
Great video, I don't play RS3 much anymore, but the new quests are always fun to come back too :D
