Mod Ash is a very intelligent man

Honestly have to disagree with you mat on the point about HD. Myself as well as hundreds to thousands of people do play old school for the nostalgia as well as graphics being a huge part of that. If they released hd and it wasnt toggleable as he stated i genuinely wouldnt want to play anymore

Watching this in 2024, we're so lucky to have Ash. Regardless of the state of the game, or what it becomes I will always respect this man.

mod ash looks like be belongs on the nonce registry just saying

Would be awesome if you could bring back Ash to do pt. 2 for his 20 year anniversary at Jagex

allah allah zamorak lmao

It's impossible to have infinite growth. also, MTX being added will kill the game 100%

Shaun is the pro of talking while saying nothing at all.

the intern stories are neat, from a game programming perspective :)

Can he unban my main account ?

Mod Ash and Israel!! Best combo!!✡✡✡✡✡✡✡✡✡✡✡✡✡😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Bring these back mate

It's so true came back to the game after 10 years and no other mmo can behave in this way they are in a total different class and genre on there own no other mmo has the nostalgia and true following as rs I play rs3 now but classic and osrc will alway hold a place in my heart

can you get this message to ash please?... Half the price triple the players.... 8.99 PM for osrs...

I think Mat brings up a good point about eoc being a good thing. Also, in my opinion, by the time eoc was being talked about, rs2 was at a tipping point with power creep that couldn't have lasted much longer without an overhaul of the combat system. With things like chaotic weapons and ganodermic armor they had sort of painted themselves into a corner.

I wonder how he feels about his comments about osrs peaking considering we just hit new records with the release of leagues 3 years after this interview. Have the passing of sailing and all the content that have come out since changed his mind at all?

So Reach changed something in the game based off what he wanted and they fired him for it. If there was no malicious intent then why can't he just say what he did....

Come back, Shauny! These were so good

Mod ash what a weardo😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

1:22:20 Not like we are going to add korasi sword to old school. Did not age too well.. xD edit: also sailing lmfao

Ive a house

Did Reach dupe and rwt?

This ep is so good i have re-watched it for like 4 times already from start till end.

what happened shauny? you were doing so good with the channel.

I got a big problem with a higher up within a company saying that it doesn't matter if people hack/bot/bug abuse aslong they put the money towards good use. Especially if you the one who judges on that, how is retirement, no longer needing to work better than helping others?!? You actually already better than 95% out there because you don't let yourself waste away trying to help others. And exactly into this problem you get because at the end of the discusion, you can't judge about someone else, period. It should be black or white, bot? get banned. And this is the reason why jagex games wil forever be botted. (I know hes gone but nothing changes, did he get this believe from jagex? or did jagex get it from him? the latter is not likely since he whasn't there when it was already going on back in the day.)

Will we ever get more interviews? This is my third+ time watching these, we need more!!

Always have to come and revisit this every now and then, will we ever get a part 2??

Ash is so fucking smart

Nothing nasty here, but it is so hard to enjoy the interview when you are typing away and clicking and looking distracted while the person you're interviewing is talking. I know you are interested in what he has to say but it looks mega rude lol

How many times can you say "obviously" in a video xD

shauny these were so fun, if you are willing and able please consider doing some more. you are still an icon

I really like Mod Ash. Super cool guy. And damn he’s been there since DAY ONE! But Mr. Interviewer…. I don’t think you did a bad job. No, not at all. But a couple things stood out to me. Firstly, you need to engage a little more with whomever you’re interviewing. It’s great to remain quiet and let them talk, but somebody like Ash tends to ramble. It’s your job to wrangle him back on topic. An experienced and talented interviewer can do this without them even noticing. Believe it or not but Late Night talk show hosts are great examples, like Jack Parr, Carson, Conan, Leno, etc. Also…. I’m sure you were pretty nervous, especially in the beginning, but don’t laugh at everything your guest says. You’ll see Fallon does this; and he’s now become a joke because of it.

PLEASE GIVE US MORE IF POSSIBEL! Re-talk to some people, this is the most wholesome rs content I have watched and is super interesting to listen to during my grinds. Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe! Thanks for the content Shauny!

lmao who likes greifing anyways? Ash: "Your customers"

THIS MAN = VERY FRIENDLY REALY A NICE GUY

"I wrote this article and a few others, but none of them were ever set out to undermine Jagex" "Did you write 'Reasons to Hate Jagex'?" "........... Yes" I am laughing so hard my face hurts

:./

Great interview, you should get that 2nd part going...its been 2 years.

I looooved the gnomecopters. Spent so long sat in those wishing I could have membership as a child.

Wow, Mat did not mince his words when talking about Mod Jed. You can tell that he really felt betrayed.

What a lad. Always a pleasure to see someone working a labor of love and doing a great job at it. I'd say I hope he knows we appreciate him... but I'm quite sure he already knows!!

2:20:30 S: ...has anyone come up to you and said "how's it feel to be Mod Ash?" A: Yes S: What's your reaction been? A: I have very few alternatives I love Ash so much. He's such an enigma and what he's done for the game is appreciated by everyone privy to it.

2:19:14 Shauny lol

Reach was such a good mod.
