I'm currently working on my next video essay on limited time gamemodes in MMOs analyzed through the lens of OSRS Leagues . In the meantime, I hope all of you enjoy a compilation of some of my early game experiences in Raging Echoes. If you do, let me know and I can continue this series of videos leading up to the final retrospective video essay!
Enjoy!

title be like "i quit cigarettes and now im addicted to crack"
Lmao 😅
smoking crack is way more fun than smoking cigarettes 💯
And boy is it good
Boy if this isn't the truest comment I've read all year.
Once you try it there is no coming back
I think the idea about being able to filter quests based on regions you have/plan to unlock is a good shout- it'd help a lot with planning out your region unlock route based on what activities or items you want for endgame. Glad you're having fun, Leagues is one of my favourite parts of OSRS!
Nice to hear my idea being supported. Thanks for your support in general as well!
I do fully agree that in-game guidance should be ALWAYS better, but you can already do this if you go to OSRS wiki, select the leagues V and click the quest symbol on right. Then sort by unlocked areas
absolute banger vids man! keep them coming and welcome to the community
Thanks for the love and support! More to come very soon!
Honestly van say this is one of the better channels to follow! The voice,the format and the way its shows it is amazing! Love the format before this but still like the way it was made!
Good to hear! I'm glad I can provide some entertainment between the analysis.
Would love more content like this. So nice to see leagues experienced from a different angle
More to come, thanks for the support :D
Just subscribed and a new video appears like that… dang man, feeding the fans what they want!
Doing my best!
Watching your vids and seeing how well they're put together is making we want to pick OSRS back up again! Another awesome video bro!
Thanks so much!
glad you're having fun, leagues is a crazy addicting game mode and the fact that it only happens once a year for a couple months is exciting because everyone crowds online to do it all at once, it's like a new MMO launch once a year
That is certainly what it feels like -- fresh start/new MMO vibes.
Babe new OSRS content creator just dropped, time to smash subscribe
I really enjoyed your original OSRS video from the perspective of a WOW player, I have spent plenty of time addicted to both, but always come back to OSRS. You put into words a lot of things I noticed but couldn't articulate. Great stuff.
So glad you are enjoying my content!
Do more uploads I really enjoyed this. Nice to see new ish osrs players
More coming a lot sooner than you may think!
Although it's not your usual content, I wouldn't mind more first time videos like this for Leagues. Especially since you're not going into it with someone else's Day One guide glued to a second monitor.
That's exactly right -- could be some great inbetween content and I think guideless gameplay can often be a lot more fun to watch for someone much more experienced.
Stoked for this! My first time playing leagues was some of the most fun I've had in game.
Stoked that you're stoked!
Love the essays, love the casual
Oh you're in for a ride
Stick around! Way more to come.
EPISODE 2! EPISODE 2! EPISODE 2!
It's out! Episode 3 should be coming shortly :D
Man your content is good quality
Thank you so much! More to come.
Welcome brozzer, best of luck absolute banger of a vid
Zank you zank you
It's wild how, 20 years ago, runescape was looked down on by a lot of people in favor of wow, and now, former wow players see how great runescape truly is
To be fair it's current WoW that's turned it's players away. Osrs is so good because it's arguably the best version of RS but catered to the players where WoW and classic WoW dont
More of this please
More to come!
7:20 you shouldn't do quests in leagues unless there is a task to do said quest. That's how you know which quests you can complete (if it's on the task list). It's a complete waste of time otherwise :)
Haha, slowly was figuring this out :P
Subbed yesterday. Love to see this today!
My pleasure! Thanks for the support.
I still barely scratched the surface of RS let alone me understanding this mode lmao
Good to see Dark Wizards are still kicking ass.
i just wanna say, that leagues is helping improving my pvm. i got my first fire cape on leagues past 10 atttempts. i had bankers note for unlimited prayer and food though, but i got some practice in regarding prayer flicking the final wave. just had sub optimal ranged gear at the time.
great video!
being a "good" player and dying to early quests is the best shit.
750 HMT to my name but 3 tried for "haunted mine"
So true
Regarding your critique of quests in leagues - fundamentally leagues is not for brand-new players of the game, it is for those with at least some experience in the main game. That being said, filtering the quests is probably a good QOL improvement that has no clear drawback.
You're right, it isn't for brand new players -- however, it's hard to deny that new players don't check out OSRS during leagues considering just how booming the game is, which is why I offered a quick solution. Can't stop new players from trying stuff out in this case, and if so, then may as well get them addicted, haha.
You are really talented at this.Ä brother
Thank you so much!
man just started watching your content today after seeing that i quit wow video and man already a fresh video and on leagues hell ya man cant wait to see more content from u in the future bro and i hope u keep uploading your footage from leagues its hella cool to see.
also putting this now that i saw u have dodgy like me if u go to fossil island which all players have access due to having digsite u can go there to dive into the sea where u can do both agility and theiving getting massive exp per hour faster then most normal methods like agility courses.
Thank you for your support! Glad to hear you enjoyed this video -- and yes, I figured out the fossil island method totally by random (which should be either included in the next video or the one after)! It made for a pretty goofy experience :P
So far, I think last year's League (Trailblazer Reloaded) is far and away the best one, but this one is still pretty good.
It's fun playing a broken version of the game with a totally different progression mindset, and making the base game's progression into something totally broken and easy to breeze through. It's genius game design, really.
Excellent League video Mr. Wise. but you should listen to your GIM partner more! Not believing him about X marks the spot? He must have been devastated!
I'll consider it (I won't).
reloaded friendly forager is god tier, definitely glad I did that
Definitely! Such an amazing combo.
this is like watching those videos of puppies experiencing snow for the first time
LOL -- More to come.
None of my friends play leagues, or even osrs for that matter. Watching you do GIM content and even solo content like leagues together with your friends makes me feel included in a way. Love the videos, keep them coming!
Glad to hear I can provide that! More to come soon.
Came after the big analysis video blew up. It'll be interesting to see what your thoughts are on Leagues after experiencing one. By the way, which plug-in are you using to show the time until next hit under your hp bar? Cheers.
Thanks for your support! The plugin is Attack Timer Metronome.
Can’t get into leagues man. Just haven’t been able to sink into it. Just has soooo much content I wanna do on the main game that I feel conflicted to learn and go through the process of leagues every single time. I’m glad lots of people like it though, it’s a great game I want everyone to experience.
Also interested in hearing what you'll think about the normal mode after playing Leagues for its duration
Haha, I'm both dreading and excited for that.
For what you said around 8 Minutes in not knowing what areas you need. When you open right click the quest and click Wiki guide, it shows which areas you need unlocked to complete the content
What an outro what a song 😆 whats the song called in the outro?
OSRS -- Reggae!
Welcome.
hell yeah
can someone tell me how to get the health and prayer bars by the inventory
What plugin is the attack speed bar below your HP?
Attack Timer Metronome
There's a balding man right next to me 😂
you made the right choice
Can I earn things for regular mode too or just for leagues?
Leagues wipes your char progress after it's over, however, you can earn leagues-specific cosmetics to override items in the main game to showcase your achievements :)
love osrs but ngl im really enjoying mop waiting room rn
Wish i wasn't deep into my ironman grind... I want the rewards lol
Man check out turtle wow you will call home for ever 🐢🐢🗡️🆒
I went wilderness as my first unlock and they didn't give me Mage Arena completed ffs XD
Had a good like 20 hours of fun though in a couple weeks. Pretty much built an optimized PvP build and clapped up people in the wildy for a couple days, then quit lmao. Leagues is cool but it's not really competitive. You're battling against yourself. Top rank is more a matter of who no-life's the game more, not quite as much skill. The last DMM was a banger, felt like a leagues but with PvP and actual competition.
that's interesting way to look at it. DMM is for PVPers i may never try that game mode because it isn't for me. What makes leagues fun for me is that it allows me to try content i don't normally do. its sort of competitive by the rankings, but to me i see it more replaying a single player games with mods or going to do a different "storyline" you didn't try last time AKA doing content you don't feel comfortable with or just dont do.

Ayy
Oh boy
people have no idea how rich the life is of the average osrs player lol. even when most havent showered in a week.
I quit ark to play this
no guides on leagues lol everyone busy playing.
Yeah. It's gonna suck playing regular OSRS when this crazy rush of Leagues event is over.
I think I'm burnt out or something because I haven't bee having as much fun lately with Leagues or the main game
Hey man. Old school player here. We don't want your fancy new age quest sorting and would rather rely on game knowledge, trial and error, and if absolutely necessary a little research.
I totally get that, but most OSRS players are using guides on external websites like the wiki, not just trial and error.
@@TheoryWiseOS their loss
unfortunately for you this game mode ends and all your progress gone.
That's not unfortunate, I totally get that.
@@TheoryWiseOS your not going to like osrs lol its crap
I dont understand half the words you say
clean ya ears
@John-yp2ho iT wAs a JOke
@@rfbftp123 sorry
You keep showing clips from your group ironman adventures, seems like you recorded most if not all of it, im really really really interested in watching the full vods of your first time playing through the game like that with your vods, any chance you will upload the vods somewhere? New players trying runescape and getting as far as you did is just so insanely rare, im sure the series would pop off.
I wish I started recording a lot earlier than I did -- one of my bigger regrets to be sure. I have highlights starting around the time I learned CoX but sadly nothing TOO much earlier as I had no plans for creating a channel.
