Seeing Mote post is like seeing zezima log in
It's like seeing someone who needs rent money
Which is something you know nothing about as you live in your moms basement rent free
To be compared to the legend is amazing hahaha. Thanks man. XD
@@wildboris1 you're really desperate for some attention with that rent comment aren't u buddy boy?
@@wildboris1 this is a job or extra money for some people and content for the watchers.
Wow shockers
And when the world needed him most, HE RETURNED
Nahh rents just due
I appreciate you still being here Peter. :) Have happy holidays my friend!
@@wildboris1 Ah, rent. The one constant in life l0l.
@@MotePlox stop reading comments damn it.
We missed you Mote.
48:50 Evil Bob still exists in Old School. That particular Evil Bob event also still occasionally shows up.
I just got that event 10 minutes ago
yep
Yeah I was gonna say that too
for #103, Count Draynor is actually of the family Drakan, in the Myreque questline Vanescula talks about her brother that traveled to the west before the River Salve got blessed, rendering him stuck there. Without the help of his family's bloodline and less blood to consume in Draynor than in the blood-filled Darkmeyer, he has severely weakened, which is the reason that his combat level is so low compared to the dangerous vampires of Morytania.
Atleast he's suave
@@A_Black_Sheep94 Haha agreed
Not gonna lie, i like the old visuals from Rs2 the most, some nostalgia & it just feels more fitting with the rest of the game as it looks
Dude I love your videos LOL. I agree man, thanks for being here. :)
@@MotePlox lmao, goes right back at you! 😂
There must be a way to get the old version graphics as a plugin to runelite
its just graphics ...
2010 RuneScape was the best looking version of RuneScape for me. I started playing in 2007
⁰0
Bonus fact: @ 3:30 the sisters names seem to be a reference to programming conditionals.
In if/else statement is a way to develop branching operations based on yes/no, true/false, or 1/0.
Each sister is named after one of the conditionals: iffy (if), Elsie (else).
I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about RS, but for as much as I remember about this game, I've forgotten just as much. Its simply incredible that we have such a detailed record of this game and its changes. Many of these easter eggs and photos didn't just bring nostalgia, but brought long forgotten memories of playing this game as a child. Its incredible to look back and see how much RS has 'grown up' alongside its player base. Just as I've grown from a child into an adult, it feels like Runescape has done the same. Its almost a sensation of pride being able to see how much this game has grown up, like a sibling in a way.
I also want to say how incredible it is for RS to have a curator, archivist, and historian of the game like you. You're an OG and its always great to find out you've posted a new vid.
Beautifully said man. In a way, RuneScape does feel like a sibling. And also, thank you for the kind words too. That's why I love documenting the things that brought us all to this game when we were young - one day I feel as if nobody will care anymore, with all the new updates and many more coming, but at least I've documented what I could for those few that want to look back. 🙂 Thanks so much for your nice comment - made my day!
@@MotePlox Honestly so true never really thought about osrs that way but in the past few years it's player base has shifted towards wanting new content and unlocks, instead of trying to restore osrs to the game we knew and loved.
Perfectly said bro
I just bought the book 20 years of runescape an illustrated history it's so good and worth it
#103 Count Draynor is actually the brother of Lowerniel, Ranis and Vanescula Drakan which is revealed in the Sins of the Father questline. There are also NPCs in Darkmeyer with the last name "Draynar" and when asked about Count Draynor they say that he took their name and changed the spelling. The house Draynar was present in Gielinor during the God Wars so that might explain why that area is named after them.
Heres the NPC dialogue from the wiki:
Player: Hello there.
Caninelle Draynar: Darling, who's this?
Pipistrelle Draynar: I don't know, darling. Why don't you ask them?
Caninelle Draynar: Yes, good idea!
Caninelle Draynar: Who are you?
Player: I'm [Vampyre name].
Caninelle Draynar: Hello, [Vampyre name]. I'm Caninelle Draynar and this is Pipistrelle Draynar.
Pipistrelle Draynar: Hello there!
Player: Draynar? Any connection to Draynor?
Pipistrelle Draynar: Oh yes. The Draynar family has been around since before vampyres came to this world.
Caninelle Draynar: Over time, some people took the name and started pronouncing it differently. Hence Draynor.
Pipistrelle Draynar: Draynor is more commonly used as a first name though, with Draynar as a last name.
Player: Thanks for the information. I wonder if there's a Draynor Draynar out there.
Pipistrelle Draynar: Now that would be funny.
Player: See you around.
(End of dialogue)
At 1:07:17, the Guthan the Infested dialogue; “We’ll finish this later...” occurs any time you are in combat with any Barrows Brother within the crypts and you run too far away from them to which they disappear and leave you with that message. The reason this can possibly occur with Guthan the Infested in his individual crypt is because if you deal the finishing blow to him the same tick he gets a heal, if he did manage to heal any health he technically dies whilst still having some calculated hitpoints left, which effectively registers him as despawning whilst still being alive. This effectively triggers the same code as when a brother despawns in the crypts when you run away from them (they are alive when you run away obviously).
We get the Swampletics finale, Verf’s movie, gielinor games season 2 and now a mote plox hour long video? Good lord this is the golden age of RS content creation.
Appreciate you putting me up there with the masters! Thanks Nate :)
Personally you're my favorite Runescape TH-camr. You're not just "up there" with the masters, you ARE one of them. 🤗
There is an enormous amount of work that goes into these videos and I really enjoy every bit of it. Thank you.
10/10 what a great way to spend a little over an hour. The nostalgia, the flashbacks, just wow…
If you check closely 5:59. Has anyone noticed that the poster in Varrock’s sword shop features an MF Doom mask? That is actually pretty weird reference from Jagex but so cool!
Whaaat that seems undeniable, but man is that weird! Never knew!
ALL CAPS WHEN YOU SAY THE MAN'S NAME
MF DOOM
This is genuinely great. I'm saying this as a player of OSRS & RS3, who started this journey in 2006.
This is the most comprehensive and detailed Easter egg list of any video game I have ever seen. Well done, Mote.
yess
He didn't even get all. I missed the "jar of dirt" drop from the kraken boss. Pirates of the Caribbean 2 reference
Oh my god, this is EXTREMELY nostalgic. i used to watch mote plox all the time, love the videos man hope you're doing well.
You are such a legend. When I hear your voice it is the most powerful feeling of being back playing in 2006.. its amazing. Thank you for returning!
Finally, a non-British TH-camr who actually bothered to find out what pancake day is instead of just laughing at it.
It was an interesting thing to learn about. :) Thanks for being here!
Why would anyone laugh at that?
I mean, I'm a fat American and all, but pancake day sounds awesome
@@aMondayMorning crepes are what we call pancakes in the UK so it's probably not exactly what you're imagining but we do cover them in all sorts of sweet things. Sugar and lemon juice is a traditional topping but my kids enjoy anything from chocolate and peanut butter to honey and bananas. We roll them up and make a mess eating them but some (boring) people insist on using a knife and fork.
Most people in the UK have no idea why we have pancake day but everyone enjoys it.
Oh I just got to that part. I usually make Cajun food for Fat Tuesday but I've had pancakes before too!
More people need to know about the Pancake Day Rap
48:28 wow that reference just suplexed me right in the nostalgia, I can still hear the voice in my head to this day LOL. Easter egg within a video of easter eggs, lovely!
I didn't intend to watch all of this, but I couldn't stop, this just took me on a whirlwind of nostalgia, confusion and vague memories.
Just wanna remind you that ever since Highschool, and even through college, whenever I see the name Mote Plox come up in my feed, I get really happy. Wishing you the best.
31:33 It's cool that this got referenced in both games. In OSRS we now finally have necromancy as a spellbook, and in rs3 the Gower Quest has tons of references to the fabled life rune and other tidbits of rs history. 32:30 Including this!
This video is making me feel nostalgic as hell. Always appreciate your effort in videos, regardless of how long you take to upload ;)
Thanks K B. :) I'm glad it brought back memories!
Also concerning the fact at 17:58, the mind altar works in a similar way. The room is shaped like a brain, and you enter and exit at the base where the brain stem would be located, mimicking the processing of information.
#80: Side note, Dr Jekyll would drop a random herb. Additionally it was considered prestigious to be able to kill the strange plant, because you could only hit 1 or 2 on it, and it dealt a poison status.
lol i feel like everyone cringes at hearing themselves years ago but i loved your old videos, used to listen to them in the background while playing osrs, I play osrs only when im not burnt out but havent played in months but i still watch your videos, congrats on 150k :)
Loved it Mote, glad to see you're back!
Dude I used to watch your videos in like 2015. I worked overnights and I would come home from work at 7 am and just binge TH-cam until I fell asleep. Kts crazy how long you've been around. Glad to see you still upload from time to time
Congratulations on 150k Mote!
I appreciate so much you do what you do Mote! Makes me so nostalgic and happy to see these videos it’s magical man.
Wow that was an epic nostalgia trip!
The Runescape handbook bought back so much nostalgia, i actually got that at a book fair around 2006-2007 while i was in elementry. A remember being so excited seeing that runescape had made it to my school
Same here :) I ended up purchasing that book in 6th grade when I was 12
Man, this video was such a nostalgia trip. I will never forget the old days of RS since I started playing back in 2005.
THE MAN HIMSELF IS BACK
I always come back. :D Haha!
The osrs TH-cam content atm is insanely good as it is, and then Mote Plox comes back as well!
Appreciate you comparing me to these other legends out here, thanks man. :)
This was the first osrs channel that I subbed to after returning for the 1st time since rs2. Helped me kinda learn the ropes and learn more about osrs as I got back in the swing and got my feet wet! Congrats on 150K, Mote!!!!
Thanks AD. :) I'm glad you're still here!
Phenomenal video Mote Plox!
The time it took to find all this information & footage must have been insane!!
CONGRATULATIONS ON 150K SUBS! :D
A fun fact about the splitbark salesperson in Wizards tower
in OSRS and RS2 and RSC, they're male, but in RS3, female.
According to Mod John A, Jalarast (the unnamed wizard) said they no longer wanted to be a male, so visited the makeover mage.
Damn I was looking forward to my shoutout at the end :( but still had a blast meeting you in-game with Mason. Awesome video as always bro - Vivi ❤️
Sorry Vivi. :( I forgot all about it because I had a lot of rendering issues at the end of the project. But you're still AWESOME my friend. :D Thanks for being here!
Man bro I randomly got your videos in my recommendations, and you inspired me to start playing osrs again and have been hooked for months now
Wonderful to see you back Mote! Hope you have been well
THANK YOU!
this video made me almost cry.
I started playing RS in 2001 ❤️
So much stuff that i have forgotten hehe
Same bro
17:45 I actually started my first character and specifically remember choosing Adventurer. I got a cooked meat, a tinderbox, and a hatchet. Pretty sure praygood and prayevil were removed by that point though. It would've been in 2003.
I first played Runescape when I was 9-10 years old.
When I saw in your video the old 2006 Runescape menu, the one without the stamina and health bar immediately visible. I had to pause the video and feel myself. I was surprised at the depth of the feelings arising in me just seeing that image. Looking at stone carved animals encircling the map, the backpack, the compass. I felt like crying. But wasn't entirely sure why. Only clear thought that could arise from those feelings, was that I love this game, and i'm forever grateful for having the opportunity to experience it as a child. Runescape was like an infinite well of freedom and awe that I could experience without end everyday for years. It taught me so much. The opportunity to be a child, let loose in a world of millions of players, a world so massive, and so full that even reading the map is overwhelming for an adult. To learn of magic and lore, of dragons, armor, crafting, wood cutting, mining, smithing. Of all kinds of monsters and beings. The feeling that you could never learn it all, but you were so happy to learn it. Teaches more to a kid than schools could ever hope to. I still have the whole world practically imprinted in my mind, I can imagine walking from Lumbridge, to Varrock, to Falador, and beyond the members gate.
And through my life experience, I've been around the Sun 28 times so far. I've learned that the world is just as magical if not more than what I felt and experienced as a child. I've worked with many plant medicines such as Ayahuasca and San Pedro. I've gone to the ancient temples in Peru and the Pyramids in Mexico, led on pilgrimages where we drank these medicines and walked through the ancient sites. The instructor, Don Victor Estrada, practically a master though he would never call himself that, was struck by lightening 4 or 7 times. Amulets and power objects, basically exist, i'm having one made for me right now by a master crafter whom I met in Peru made of Puma teeth and Meteorite. The world is vast, beyond the conceptual frameworks our society can move people to believe.
Synchronicity and life path and Destiny is real. I work for a Space Biosciences company, of which we will be launching small laboratories into space to run experiments that will allow humans to live longer in space. I did not plan on these things, I simply followed my heart, and they happened.
I will credit at least in part Runescape for being in my life, and where I am now. As I would likely be a different person without it.
I love hearing the music, it's a gift to be able to have such a powerful engram that can immediately bring me back to my childhood.
Thank you for making this video, I enjoyed every second of it, down to even the music you played at the end.
Much love,
Roshawn
"Anything worth value never comes easy" love you mote I used to watched your videos back to back when I still played ahah. :D
Yall have no idea how badly I needed this. Even I didn't know how much I needed it!
Thanks mAngel! :) I appreciate you still being here my friend.
Some of these are so nostalgic, miss when it took me 2 hours to figure out how to get through the tutorial island in 2006
What an incredible video. The dedication and hard work that went to this is insane. Thanks for making it, will be incredible to look back on in years to come (as it is already)
Those screen shots were some nostalgic gold. Thanks for this video. 👍🏼
P.S.A.: You can speak to the range tutor in Lumbridge to automatically equip the bolts you pick up if they match what's in your ammo slot.
Thank you so much for making this man, as a 2005 vet I got chills looking at some of the screenshots and remembering how much I wanted to go to certain areas or have certain items. 10yo me should have appreciated this more :)
I miss them days. I started in 2006 as a 9 year old and man I miss this game being a noob.
@@seniorestus1344 same man
I remember you saying to me on fb you probably weren't coming back. But im very glad to see you post another absolutely fantastic video :)
Great video Brandon! So glad to see you back uploading
I feel extremely depressed so i'll honestly take what i can get at this point. Thank you dearly for all effort put into this, makes my day better for sure :)
Stay strong fam
From a stranger on the internet: I hope that everything works out for you and you'll get through it. Much love ❤
I'm sorry you're going through a rough time Zoey. I appreciate you being here - it made MY day better. Things can always get better, you said so yourself in your comment. Stay strong, my friend. Thanks again. :)
I know what you’re going through, rehab in 2 weeks.
Stay strong !
@@MotePlox this along with the other comments genuinely got me through the last few days. Thank you dearly 💛
Ive played this game for 20 years, yet here i am 3mins into the video already mind blown. this is so cool thanks mote plox
Thanks for being here Jackie. :)
@@MotePlox always man
happy to see a video from you appear in my feed!
have a great holiday mr. plox
Amazing video man you really threw me in memory lane with the RSC clips
You keep my runescape dreams alive with your videos highly appreciated
Man those screenshots at Number 98 really cemented the fact to me that no matter what. The runescape *I* love will never come back. It kinda breaks my heart
56:42 - Basically Duradel stands on business, had a pair of dragon claws long before anyone in RuneScape knew what they were, and absolutely specced Vannaka out for getting too lippy one day just to remind him who was boss. Absolute G.
I don't even go here (I just watch people play OSRS lol) but this list was delightful. So many of these Easter eggs feel more like little in-jokes and goofy bits that us indie-devs have compared to, like, other similarly big MMORPG's. The love put into this game to this day is gosh darn heartwarming (and often hilarious lol)
Actually the guard behaviour was never removed. If you lure an Edgeville guard into the Wilderness in RuneScape Classic (when it was still around), they still prevented you from attacking other players. There's footage of this before the shutdown.
Glad you're back. We all missed you mote
Don't say your old videos were cringe. They were great. Glad you're making videos again man.
hope your feeling better man glad to see you back at it even if its just a one off for fun every now and then.
I have returned. I am in the beginning of this video. My comment that is in this video was from 2005 when I was really into watching Runescape videos.
22:51 Man, how old was that postbag? It's clearly foreshadowing the dragonkin's first appearance in While Guthix Sleeps,which was November 2008.
edit: After much digging, it looks like that was May 2007. That quest was in development a while. It's nostalgic to read back on these, there was a lot of foreshadowing to future content in them.
An upload from you is always a happy welcome my dude... love your videos.
Thanks Cory. :) I really appreciate that man!
I love runescape. The music. The scenery. The adventures and cool people met. So much nostalgia.
return of the king
Ayyy thanks Nabber. :) Keep up the good work man!
Ayo mote you should continue your RuneScape timeline video but do it as 10 minute videos for each year after 2015. Everyone upvote so he sees this.
This was so nostalgic and calming, thank you for this! I was in awe
Seeing original rs2 barbarian village brought back so many memories! It was one of the main areas i'd train my ranging in early 2004 due to the food spawns
THIS DUDE DOESNT MISS 🥶
Appreciate you being here man. :)
I appreciate your videos brother, you've dealt with a lot and have come a long way, never stop doing what you do man, you're damn good at it
51:54 I think there was a small mine where the "tower" is near the bridge/fishing spot, which they later moved into the middle
great video! thank you for the time since the beginning and congrats on 150k!
Thanks Chacksen. :) I appreciate ya!
Wanted to say I'm enjoying your vids. I haven't played since I was a kid, and me and my wife have decided to start fresh on OSRS so we're eating this stuff up. Awesome work man.
Hi I love your videos mote plox I'm 13 and you made me want to play RuneScape and now it's my favorite game
Hey, thanks man. :) I appreciate you! I'm glad you like RuneScape. Keep playing - you never know where this game will take you in life. :)
With the strange watcher point, the zamorak watcher has a skull, which makes sense lore wise as he's an ascended mahjarrat (like Hazeel/General Khazard) Mahjaratts turn to skeletons when they havent done the ritual of rejuvination in a while
Thank you for all the work this took. I've been forced to watch a series about some dude doing theater of blood but never leaving morytania or something silly like that. But really I was just waiting for more mote plox.
Yoooooo good to see you back Mote!! Great vid!!
I like the claw marks on the anti-dragonfire shield, that means someone tested it's effectiveness on an actual dragon, if they were all pristine, you wouldn't know the effectiveness until too late. :^)
The legend is back! Perfect timing though after the Swampletics void.
Ah man I'm nowhere near as a legend as that man. Appreciate ya! :)
As someone who listens to these videos while I work, the screenshot part confused the hell outta me with how long it was. Still a really great video, thanks for uploading.
thanks for this video mote, keep up the amazing work i love watching your facts and historic videos they are verry entertaining and sometimes even make me emotional :)
Amazing video. I need to ask, though, and I'm shocked no one else is asking: How are you getting all the footage of the old RS2 versions of the game? The old models, animations, old varrock etc. I need to know!
The 2005 footage is from a server called Scape05. It's literally a replica of Runescape in 2005.
Along with scape05 there is a server source available for the true beta stuff, it just isn't anywhere near as functional as scape05 but that can be used to showcase the simpler stuff and he can spawn items in that since he would be an admin on his own server
45:45 this happens because the verices (points on a 3d mesh) are animated. When you keep the animation, but swap the mesh (3d model), the vertices will still do the animation as if they are on a different mesh, resulting in hilarious (and sometimes creepy) animations.
glad i stayed up to catch this upload thank you
Appreciate you being there Michael. :) I hope you liked it!
Never clicked on any video faster in my life
Never agreed with a comment harder in my life
@@michaelbarker6732 Hahaha thanks Michael. :)
Thanks for being here Bryce. :)
One of the nicest most dedicated content creators out there. Long live Mote Plox.
Hell yeah man! I missed you! Hope you and the family are doing good man!
Some of you best content yet man! Here's to much more!
Who else just comes back to this video on occasion? Mote plox is one of the most humble & knowledgeable person I know. Love you man
Mote is here with AN HOUR OF CONTENT!!! Best thing in 2021 guys, calling it.
Appreciate you being here man, thank you. :)
did not expect this to be as much of a deep dive into rs as it ended up being, well done
And welcome back again brother! Glad to see you're well! Can't wait to again watch this while having a beer. Cheers bro! 🇨🇦👍
That's exactly what I did before I uploaded it haha! Had to make sure there weren't any mistakes! XD
@@MotePlox Nothing like some liquid courage to make sure you're on point 😅
God it’s been almost 7 years already? Time passes oh so quickly sometimes.
So damn quickly... I'm almost 30 now lol.
Btw I’ve only played RS for about an hour over a decade ago. Yet I’m subbed to ur channel and love your content. You have a real knack for making captivating content. I’d prolly watch you if you made videos on any subject. Anyways, hope ur doing well lad best of wishes 🫂
Pretty sure he has another channel that does non rs content
Thats kinda wholesome. :)
Thanks for the nice comment Nicolas. :) I really appreciate you. I do have a 2nd channel called "The Top Tens" that's non-RuneScape related top 10s. :) Appreciate the kind words, again!
Hope all is good! Thanks for the vid! Happy holidays
Everything is well man. :) I hope you're well too, thanks! Happy holidays!
Welcome back man!
Thanks Adam. :) I hope you're well!
When he started talking about zombies and fishing bait, I prepared myself. The real fans will know what I'm talking about.
I regret that so much. 😂 You've been here for a long time if you remember that! Appreciate you!
@@MotePlox And we appreciate you, man. No matter what the upload schedule is.
whats the plot here?
