    It's been 20 years since I played RuneScape and it's finally time to come back. I wanted to go with the old school RuneScape because it was such a unique opportunity to come back to a preserved game I grew up with. My mission: to complete the dragon slayer quest and equip full rune armor. I hope you like it! Thanks for watching :)
    Great video on the history of Runescape I used to help write this video:

    I ran a marriage scam when I was in the 6th grade. I made a girl account (I’m a male) and my friend became a priest so that he could marry people. I would make friends with guys and then marry them, which always resulted in big weddings where I’d receive all kids of stuff. Dragon weapons, Dragon armor, gold, rare weapons, etc. I ended up marrying like 10 dudes. Good times.

    I have an inferno max cape & trimmed achievement diary cape, 5b bank, and almost 7,000 hours played in OSRS. The game is incredibly vast, and there's no wrong way to play the game because it's account-based. Completing the game's quests (which are some of the best-written quests in any game ever made) unlocks more items, more quests, new skilling methods, and even entire regions of the game. Oldschool Runescape is a mile wide and as deep as an ocean. That being said, the game will consume you.
    Also, to elaborate on the expensive items: The blue partyhat in Runescape 3 is worth over $2,500 in real-world dollars. In Oldschool Runescape, there are items that are worth more than the maximum stack of gp allowed in game (2,147,483,647 - limited by Java's maximum integer value) The Third-Age Pickaxe is currently worth twelve _billion_ gp, traded between players using platinum (1 plat = 1k gp) instead of gp.

Him and his dad came over looking for us and me and my friend split and hid in a bush. Was a dog eat dog world as 10 year olds. Funny thing is, the victim asked beforehand if we had a keylogger to which my other friend accomplice said "whats a key bogger". And amazingly that didnt give us away.

    Also you’re right, the fact that there are two launchers you need to have running in order to play the game is a joke - but with RuneLite you know you can increase the draw distance (how far you can see) in settings?

    As someone that has been playing this game for 18 years, I can tell that you have the mindset of a true scaper. Not wanting to accept money from your friend, not wanting them to change agility even though it sucks (which they actually are btw). I sincerely hope you keep playing, cause the amount of end game content you have yet to explore is beyond incredible. All the end game bosses, raids, grandmaster quests, amazing hard to unlock areas like Priff and Darkmeyer. It's truly something to behold. I'd recommend giving yourself goals to complete so you have a basis of where to go on your journey. Here's my recommendation on what your goals could be:
    1. Complete Legends Quest and Monkey Madness
    2. Obtain a Dragon Defender
    3. Obtain Barrows gear
    4. Obtain a Fire Cape
    5. Complete a Grandmaster quest like Dragon Slayer 2, Monkey Madness 2 or Song of the Elves
    6. Obtain a unique from an endgame boss like Zulrah, Vorkath, Cerberus, God Wars, etc...
    7. If you're truly addicted and cracked at the game by that point, maybe try for Infernal Cape or Quiver.

    I agree with you on the quest helper lmao, I prefer to use the wiki to check what items I need during the quest and after that, just immerse myself into it, no guides, no handholding, just slowly going through it, reading all the dialogue, reading lore books and figuring it out on my own. Feels a lot more rewarding, and makes me feel more connected with the world.
    If you ever decide to return to OSRS, I'll be the first one to binge it all up! There's nothing quite like unlocking something coveted that you put the time and work into achieve, especially as a new player.
