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 :)

Hey Jack, can I get a lil kiss g’night 🥺👉👈
Bro, you can do better sponsorships. You're so much more creative than that. I get that you need to get that bag, but come on. you can take an example from noodle. entertain me during the ad read. don't make me want to click off.
@@Kenneth._.Sandburgjust. skip. the sponsor section.
Hey Jack, your Twitch link needs updating on TH-cam! Currently directs to jackplasma rather than jacksathershow. Have a good one!
No one ever quits Runescape, we all just take really long breaks.
So true 😂
Same with Minecraft
i play runescape through youtubers since you know adult shit gets in the way to grind 10 hours a day
@@maxmartinenko7927create a free to play and just jump on and cut trees and kill goblins in lumby, use the most populated world you can find and chat. there is some good times to be had out there. look for j1mmy F2P series with gary gilbert
True
Fun fact; More people are playing OSRS today than at any point in Runescapes history. It's not just "still around", it's thriving.
this is such a lie lol I made an account and its garbage banks empty..all the old school hot spots empty.
No one is talking to each other. The game died years ago the numbers shown playing are all bots lol !
What a loser lol@@Everythings_A_Lie
@@Everythings_A_Lie A lot of old hotspots are dead, this is true. Also his original comment is true for OSRS, but runescape (not old school runescape) had higher player counts back in 2007 than OSRS has now. If you want to find people, you need to know where to look for them. Some spots are only populated on some worlds. Its become a lot more about efficiency than it was back in the day. Still the best game I've ever played, and continue to play
@@Everythings_A_Liefucking hell... The playerbase is made up of 25+ year olds that mostly have jobs/lives/kids/etc.
The majority of people aren't just fucking stood at varrock west bank or fally park spamming "selling lobsters"
It's been 20 years. The game has changed. People have changed. Hotspots have changed.
@@Everythings_A_Liethere are hundreds of worlds fella
Bro didn’t turn auto retaliate off when flinching lol
😂😂
I definitely agree that receiving gifts is part of the new player experience, people are generally super wholesome and helpful towards new players. 100k was the perfect amount of GP as well, just enough money to get started without it being an overwhelming handout.
tbf at his level, 100k is still a huge amount for what he is likely going to be doing. Only a longtime player would see that 100k and be able to see that as allowance for teleports
@@jonnobigz nah, you shouldn't grind out every little thing completely by yourself if you don't play an ironman account. Late game is where this game begins to thrive. Get there ASAP :D
Yeah genuine new players are rare so that’s why people are so willing to help with gp and gear no hesitation. Agreed, 100k is the perfect amount
@@pokeripper9707 Endgame is fun but early game is where u get addicted, speeding this only lead to dead playerbase like now. Also gifting money and shit to new players is the worst idea ever and makes them bored after 2 days. Answer questions if u wanna help, dont ruin their progression.
@@vladimir4526 a small handout could always be the thing that stops a player from quitting
If you remember runescape, you remember Zezima
The original Legend
Good ol' days.
that one time finding Zezima at Edgeville bank.. goosebumps to this day
also having the tinderbox in inventory and no tree by barb village when fly fishing and never go to the wild lol
@@DamaNovusI found him too once, we knew what server he was on, and me and a friend basically hunted him until we found him, and he literally had 200 people following him
Austin here, man I forgive you but I remember going home that day and crying because I couldn’t log back in and lost all my progress
NO WAY 😂
@@JackSatherI desperately hope that you two end up hopping on a discord call and catching up. That would be incredible.
Damn, that's evil 😅
Damn man that actually really sucks I would've been devastated if someone did that to my runescape account back when I was a kid
...and he never trusted anyone again.
Really fun watch man. I'd love to see you get a fire cape. That would be epic
This is so nostalgic, the music, the gameplay. As a kid not understanding English at all as it was a second language questing was impossible. Even so the memories from just finding out stuff by going around and exploring was very fun. It is something that I think will never happen again, I am happy I got to experience that.
Great video!
Hate to break it to you man but it's now impossible to burn the shrimp you cook on tutorial island.
Well-… damnit
this is only true if YOU light the log. You can burn the shrimp on someone else's log as was discovered by speedrunners

Without a doubt, one of the few, rare channels on the platform surrounding video gaming that is fueled by the pure, insatiable love of the medium. Jack makes it feel like him and I are best bros, just chatting about one of our favorite things, video games!! Appreciate the sincere passion you exert for games in your videos brother, really comes off in a great way. Keep up the fantastic work ❤️❤️
very true and very well said.
💯
Jesus , fan girl much? LOL.
@@Rage_Harder_Then_Relax Eh I disagree. I read that as him appreciating that the videos feel like conversations with a friend who's totally psyched on a game, genuine passion. Not exactly idolizing Jack or putting him on a pedestal... Don't be a troll.
One of the only newer video game guys who feels like he’s not copying other creators too. He’s not doing a nakey Jakey impression or anything, he does his own thing
Funfact: The Blue Partyhat is worth 70B in the original Runescape today, you can currently get 100m in game by spending $10 on Bonds. Do the math if ur curious
1 bond is 10.6m and I think still $11 so it's closer to $100 for $100m
@@principalmcvicker6530 he's talking about usd to rs3 gp, not usd to osrs gp. bonds in rs3 are 100m per.
@@principalmcvicker6530 bond is 10m in osrs and 100m in rs3
$26 today is equivalent to 1b in-game if you buy it in partypeteshop, rpgstash, or eldorado. That's the best way of buying gold right now, they can't actually ban since Mods won't know. Been buying since 2015 worth 25b gold all in all and haven't been banned ever since.
what do you mean by "the original"?
and the math is:
100x=70000
x=700
x * 10 dollars = 7000 dollars
that's a lotta money
As a kid it took me 4 years to get Rune armour on what is now my rs3 account. I started an osrs account a month or two ago and am currently on track to getting my abyssal whip in two days or less.
I just watched a 42 min long video and thought it was 10 minutes... I would watch 2 hours of this and wouldnt get tired
You could watch swampletics series or tileman. If you need more nostalgia. Also, J1mmy does the same "feel" kids about osrs.
so real
That's lvl 3 skiller vibes lol same
Holy shit you just woke me up from my trans
Lol you not knowing about auto-retaliate in the elvarg fight was classic.
Oldschool has so much to offer, so many new mechanics and bosses to fight. Take time and really play it, i think you will enjoy it. Would love to see a follow up video.
What an entertaining video, had me in stitches when auto-retaliate was screwing you at Elvarg.
Am I the only one hearing “ruin-scape?” Is this a running gag carried over from the Elden Ring video? 😂😂
Great video!!
I hear it too lol
Ruin, Rouxen, Room scape.
Came here to say this 😄
Pretty sure it's specific to certain US dialects. There's another youtuber I've noticed saying certain words like that, as if it's two syllables.
Not an uncommon way to pronounce it
i got into osrs last year and im borderline addicted... hardly played as a kid but i love how chill it can be after a long day of work
It's cool how it can be as relaxing or taxing as you want it to be
I wish I could play like this again, the sense of wonder was unrivalled especially as a kid.
damn, props to that bennoz guy. He really hooked you up with some upgrades that not a lot of new players know to look for.
If you ever choose to go back to osrs, make sure to take extra advantage of the osrs wiki. The wiki is so good that the developers put a dedicated button in game to open the wiki page to any interactable object in the game.
same with RS3, you click wiki in the chat box and type literally anything about the game and it just opens that wiki page, one of the best features in a game ive ever seen
@bruiserbrown9258 yeah, but rs3 is bad so no one really cares
The full Mythril armor set with the rainbow shoes is how I logged off all those years ago. I don't know if the quests to get the armor existed back then, I just remember the grind to make it all myself. This has brought back so many fond childhood memories. Mining, fishing, the Wilderness, the manor, etc. When you entered the white mine it was like a core memory unlocked. Great video!
Nah the new guide that gives you free stuff is only a few years old at this point. I remember having my mind blown by a nice guy making me a full set of iron armor for me back then.
@@Greenleaf_ People were always so nice because you had so much of everything. I remember I mined iron and coal for weeks on end to get my mining, smelting, and smithing levels up. I'd sell most of the excess to the blacksmith, but I used to run to the bank and give sets of armor out for free because why not? I had literal tons of that stuff.
This was so much fun to watch, experiencing Runescape again after so long is so magical. Hope to see more of you playing Runescape!
I was a Pirates of the Caribbean Online kid. I wish I could do this with that game man!!
I played a fan maintained version of that like 4 years ago, might still be around
Runelite has options to increase the render distance like 30x the default. In the settings tab at the top right search for "GPU" if you want the classic look, gear icon that and the top should be draw distance and extended map loading options. For the "HD" look instead of the GPU plugin you head to "117 HD" and the same options can be found in that plugin too!
Bless up came here to say this
I'm a 27 year old still playing OSRS, the game I started when I was 6. God damn it's addicting
Same back on that grind!!!!!
I'm 56, came back a year ago (this is all my kid's fault for telling me there was a mobile version). I originally started in 2004-ish (so I could screen it and make sure it was okay for my 7 year-old), got addicted, stopped when it turned into RS3. I wonder how many other gen x folks still play or are playing again...
@@mjm5565 only you
27 year old here too brother I’d rather blow my head off but the nostalgia hits home 😂😂😂
@@sir.willthur5428 I used to be the same way when I was 6
Love your story telling. I started playing RS when I was 10 in 2001. Everything was relatable
Bro this is so wholesome and the whole fact that he was so happy when his friend gave him 100k because he thought that was a lot was adorable in the best way. Never seen this channel before, but great video :)
I’ve spent the last 3 weeks obsessed with this game all over again and this video could not have been more perfectly timed. Love your stuff man!
Welcome back. There's no escape
Welcome back
We missed u.
wb, fishing lvl?
why fletch?
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.
nerd
Can u give me tumeken or tbow
Touch some grass bro
Who asked + Go outside + Clean your room
@@Dhemize you have a maxed account. How hilarious to tell someone else to go outside 😭
the barrier to entry for new players to just create a character is insane.
RuneScape is... FOREVER!
OSRS is genuinely my favorite MMO, it's a great mix of sandbox and theme park
The best thing about RuneScape is it isn’t an MMO. It defies classification. It’s a solo multiplayer cookie clicker with multiplayer endgame, and it’s glorious.
@@KeytarArgonian true I'd say it feels more like a shared world than a real game lol
@@KeytarArgonian Somebody watched the Marstead video.
Oh god this takes me back. Coming home from school and going into the family computer room. Booting up Runescape in one tab, a Breaking Benjamin playlist on youtube in another tab and just trying to trigger that Bootcamp random event to get those sweet camo pants and shirt.
Simpler times.
I buried bones so much for the zomie gear!
This video was such a treat to watch! As someone who returned back to OSRS around 2016-2017ish after a decade long hiatus, I shared a lot of your personal experience. The rush of nostalgia and wonder, achieving the things my kid/teen self would've killed for.
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.
Liked, subbed and all that jazz!
I absolutely love how at 39:00 you paused to have a look where PVP hotspots are, right infront of the Chaos alter PVP hotspot XD
Awesome vid mate!
that blue partyhat that you remember, still exist in their full cost state brought over from the 01 days towards runescape 3.
Yep, but essentially worthless because nobody plays that game anymore.
They’re worth 30-40b in rs3 last I checked.
@@peytonhorn2833 blue phat is 85.7b according to rs3 ge page since they increased the max cash limit on that version.
Never played either editions of RuneScape butI'm definitely going to check it out, thanks. As always great video
The gameplay itself isn't for everyone and neither is the time commitment of the grind, but it's a legitimately rewarding experience and we have a cool community. Hope you enjoy it when you try it out! (Try old school)
@@Saiyamanmcdon’t feel overwhelmed at first glance, look up a few guides and everything you do will feel rewarding. Enjoy the journey man gl
@@Saiyamanmcwhy is old school better?
@@ChickenJoe-tq6xdThe new school game has a lot less players, is loaded to the brim with microtransactions, and is far, FAR from the experience we had back in the day. That all being said, it's still a solid game if you can tolerate that stuff. The quests in particular are absolutely incredible, much like OSRS's.
@@ChickenJoe-tq6xd its subjective, but i prefer old school because of things such as the polling system, lack of mtx, refusal to update the art style, and the larger community. we also get seasonal game modes that are very fun to participate in. rs3 isnt a bad game, but old school/runescape 2 is what pops in my head when the word runescape is mentioned. you come for the nostalgia and stay for the great game design.
First time seeing your channel, but thoroughly enjoyed this video. I first played Runescape 20 years ago as well... such fond memories. Subscribed, look forward to the next vid :)
Love the video and watching you experience the nostalgia. Very similar to my experience re-playing osrs as an adult!
Bro just admitted to Scamming his friend for 8 days access to members servers
we all did this shit man LOL
jack, as someone who also not so long ago played a couple of my childhood games i think it's really fun that you actually filmed your self doing that, and analyzied that game.
keep up the good work jack you are amazing
This is crazy how much I can relate 9 days back in OSRS. Literally same exact experience, everything happened to you also happened to me 27:56 , 28:56, etc
this game was my childhood back in 2004, i still play to this game now and have met some amazing friends
JACKS UPLOADED!!!!!!
AT LAST!!!!!
THE RETURN OF THE KING
the best
Randomly stumbled across this and ended up watching the whole thing. Excellent editing and narration. Loved it!
I love your videos. Your honest enthusiasm and love of gaming is refreshing and infectious. All the best to you and your channel, its awesome to see it growing so much
I used to play Runescape to Madvillainy, Quasimoto & J Dilla religiously as a kid. Whenever I see the game I hear their music
New to the channel, I love this video. Played as a lad, and returned as an adult, and its been my favorite game for years. If you wanted to continue here are some ideas for another similar video: Monkey Madness, Desert Treasure (iconic members quests), go for lvl goal for all skills like 10-20 so you can try them all out, there are several unique skilling bosses that I think a new player would enjoy while also seeing how interactive the game can be. Good luck plasmorp, hope to see you on soon.
This is my favourite video on youtube. I love listening to it while i play, while im falling asleep and I recommending it to every single one of my friends who played Rune like I did back in the day.
Jack quickly became my favourite youtuber after I saw the Red dead video a while ago
as a oldschool player i genuinely wish i could experience it like this
I miss this myself, I remember coming back to OSRS around 2016-2017ish after about a decade long hiatus. It was such a rush of nostalgia that can't be replicated.
Achieving the things my dumbass couldn't as a kid/teen, and actually getting my account geared towards mid to late game that I always dreamed of was such a great feeling.
Now I take multiple breaks, just because I feel burnt out by the game more often than not.
Yo Jack keep up the good work and I can’t wait to play your game
alright that 26 step login process you listed was like 60% you being dumb and 40% jagex being dumb but besides that great video!
Man, the beginning of this video brought back so many memories if when I was in 4th grade playing Runescape. Played it until about like 2008-2009 then joined WoW for like 12 years. Now getting back into OSRS.
Runescape (and MMOs in general) do nothing for me, but I always like hearing passionate fans talk about their old/new experiences with it
Hahah then I extra appreciate you watchin ❤
Out of curiosity what kind of games are you into?
I'm sorry child Jack, but stealing your friends Runescape account and then never fessing up when they let you play it out of the kindness of their heart and then didn't say anything when they definitely knew it was you. I'm sorry but that's one of the most evil things I've ever heard. Like on a kicking puppies level of pure evil
plz dont stop playing, need more videos like this
What a way to celebrate an incredible game. Thank you for putting in the work to organize this video
There is no way to explain the feeling of being a returning player creating a new account to experience the magic of RuneScape all over again.
My younger self would be proud of the patience and dedication I have achieved through the years playing
I hop into Old School RuneScape from time to time, just did the Easter event and there’s an entirely new city that was added. Was stunned to see 150,000 people were playing OSRS at the same time! Old School RuneScape saved Jagex for sure, because they ruined the “main” game beyond repair
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?
BRO that last TWO TIMES I revisited this classic to reconnect with my childhood, BOTH times a kind stranger at lumbridge gave me a TON of money, and BOTH times they said they just like helping out and wanted to give new players a headstart. The OSRS community is full to bursting with philanthropists that want to help others fall in love with this beautiful game. Maybe one day I'll treat myself to a membership but I only just defeated Elvarg last year, fulfilling my childhood goals. One step at a time
Appreciating the usage of the Soil sound clip in the beginning, total nostalgia for 07 days 😊
Wow, my favorite TH-camr making a video about my all time favorite game. What a treat!!
FUCK YEAH!!!
Runescape is a huge part of my life.
I love seeing videos like this 😊 i love the community, i love that you referred to getting hooked up with gp as part of the authentic experience
Hope you keep playing
This was a fucking awesome video and throw back. Thank you man; I'm glad you met a few of the good community members.
As a hardcore OSRS player this video is fucking amazing😂 you’re one of my fav gaming TH-camrs and watching you experience my fav game is so great
ruinscape
This video brought me much joy. Such nostalgia
Currently taking a break. Thinking about runescape a lot and stumbled upon your video. Now I HAVE to go back
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.
As someone with thousands of hours in this game its so cool to see you make a video about coming back to Old School, feel like I'm reliving all the nostalgia right there with you. Thanks for the awesome video Jack!
It's cool to see you making stuff you're passionate about. Was excited when I first saw your channel a couple years back and I'm glad to see you're following your dream. Bully for you
Good job on the agility explanation btw, lots of people think it makes your run energy go down slower but it just makes your run energy recharge faster as well as the shortcuts. but weight reduction will help your run energy deplete slower.
I really enjoy your videos. You have a great dialogue and personality which is enjoyable to watch and it's made even more fun to watch with the thematic elements you add with the background and outfits. Construction paper Runescape armor? Amazing!
Watching this while literally grinding away at lategame really makes me so happy! To see a new or returning player to our little world and experience it like we once did will always be the greatest feeling~
I never really got into RuneScape but this video still really interested me. I was an Adventure Quest Worlds kid
Great video, Jack! I remember when I was first getting into Runescape, I basically became a worker for my older cousin farming resources for him. That way he can get whatever gear or sell my labor so he can PK some noobs in the wildy.
my new favorite osrs video of all time. absolutely love to see it
edit- i hope you continue your osrs journey. if so, i will 100% be tuned in!
The bronze bars in Runescape Classic looked extra tasty because they were flat and actually looked like chocolate.
Core chocolate memory.
watching this video as a runescape veteran has been an absolute treat, it was like experiencing the game for the first time all over again 💕
Runescape takes so much time to get through, and I'm freak'n HERE FOR IT.
Wow. I literally just did this last year. Never wore rune plate armor back in the day so had to do it now as an adult.
26:16 thank you so much for the air rubbing to explain the jewlery mechanics, i've been laughing for 5min lol
RS3 Partyhats (the original hats and the purple dupes) are worth billions. great video, no one ever truly leaves the game.
Great video! Hopefully, u still play it. Never really a game we stop playing just taking breaks from time to time
love it i still play 20 years later.nice too meet you.nice vid
This video was awesome dude. I started playing again back in 2020. I’m currently 2265/2277 total level inching my way to max cape. Have a 4 bill bank and excited to keep playing after maxing. RuneScape hooked me when I was in second grade and I stopped playing around 2011 or so. What an amazing game and I hope you get perpetually hooked again! End game is awesome
This was awesome man, look forward to seeing more
Ive wanted a crystal bow for well over half my life as a kid the agility lvl needed seemed so overwhelming but now i have all prerequisites done just need to do last 2 quests and a small dream of mine will finally be complete
This video was awesome! Thank you so much for giving the game a shot, and I hope that you stick around and keep playing!
35:47 you're on your way to learning the ways of obtaining your very own Fire cape and other infamous items such as the Infernal Cape
19:50 calling the abyssal whip the dragon whip is great lmao
Swear to god when that Miniclip logo popped in the corner I could almost smell the older days. Times long gone, how I wish them back
Nothing like the fear of getting a phone call while you're in the wilderness and disconnecting
It's awesome that anyone that comes back for a nostalgia hit has that moment of "wait...this still rules". OSRS kept all the same vibes and made it even better. Hands down the best long term progression MMO I've ever played.
I know they meant well, but they actually took away from your adventure by giving you all of that money and items. Some of my fondest memories of runescape are from scrounging up money to get my first rune scimitar and eventually my first full rune armor set. It doesn't mean as much when it's just given to you
Bro everything you said was so on point with nostalgia
I’ve never played RuneScape but I had a similar feeling when I went back to Neverwinter Nights last year.
