19 Minutes of Useless RuneScape Information

10:24 The reason for two gertrudes (and several other quest NPCs) was that in RSC, only one player could talk to an NPC at a time. Gertrude was a popular NPC as her cats were a source of a large chunk of the games death runes. So keeping two of her around made sense.

[@davidkupersmith1626]

Who remembers when you'd click to run somewhere and your character would run in the opposite direction for a moment. It actually felt weird when they finally fixed it.

[@Mote_Plox]

Always! It's never clicked in my mind before, but you're right, that doesn't seem to happen today, does it? 🤔

[@davidkupersmith1626]

@@Mote_Plox nope! I remember they posted about it when it was finally fixed cuz it took them ages to figure it out 😂 once in a while, I still expect it to happen

[@IAmStayingAnonymous]

Bro for some reason I kind of liked that running the wrong way thing. It had a goofy kind of charm that I loved about the game

[@RustyCanadien]

I have a quirky useless information about RuneScape! Above the Lumber Yard (on what would be the 3rd floor) there's an invisible NPC called "Guardian" when you examine it, it says: "He guards things." I found him while noclipping a few years back in the area, it's not doable anymore and it wouldn't be there anyways since they reworked the area.

[@Mote_Plox]

Oh wow that's cool to know, I'm definitely gonna research that, thanks 🙂

[@RustyCanadien]

@@Mote_Plox It should be HD in about 30 minutes.

[@coerce1]

I think the Drill sergeant was probably meant to host a bunch of random events. Perhaps there was supposed to be one for each piece of the camo gear? I could also totally see the player tending to wounds in the infirmary and being rewarded with HP exp.

[@Mote_Plox]

I really believe that's the most logical reasoning. I wish an early J-Mod could confirm this!

[@Ryytikki]

that nearly 15s intro really brought me back to the mid-late 2000s era and i cant think of a better fit for a runescape channel

[@sk8rdman]

Probably the reason there are two Gertrude NPCs there is because in RSC only one player could engage in dialogue with an NPC at a time. This would create bottlenecks of players waiting for their turn to talk to certain NPCs, which was often a problem when a new quest came out. Creating a second copy of the NPC nearby effectively doubled the throughput for players trying to start the quest. I recall that there were also two copies of King Narnode at the Grand Tree for this same reason.

You seriously have shaped my childhood and i genuinely would love to interview you and talk about your channel and the struggles and everything.

[@Splitsplatofficial]

I have literally always been clueless about the museum when I do air orb runs. Always wondering what that area was. From the edgeville dungeon near the earth obelisk and air obelisk ladder, you can see the very edge of the museum. I never knew how to get there and now I do thanks to this video. Thank you for teaching me about that, Mote Plox!😊

[@Mote_Plox]

Oh wow yeah that would be confusing seeing that area but not knowing how to get to it haha. It is pretty well hidden!

[@Wessel1271]

18:00 you actually used to be able to walk around the whole Camp! I remember my friend being teleported there, and you had to talk to the demon to start the event. He did not know this, so he Walked around for days, trying to find a way out. Talking to the demon also gave some options, cuz we tried talking to him, but we didnt know english back then. Eventually, after 2 months of being stuck there, one of our friends older brother could read the text and guide us through the event. I also remember clicking on some stuff that you were able to interact with, but you were cut of by the demon telling you (presumeably) to come to him. This has been early beta maybe. 2004/2005

[@guitarbass22]

These are so sporadic that it’s a treat to see you posted. So thank you.

[@spiritofnex]

Caught this a bit late, but it's always a good day when I get to watch a new Mote Plox video! Gotta say, those old versions of trade parade (especially the '05 version) sound super nostalgic. I started playing back in late '04, so 2005 was when I was really learning the game. I still absolutely love the song "Scape Original", as it's the version of the song started with. Fantastic video as always my guy, and I absolutely can't wait for what's next.

[@AnsityJ]

The grand exchange song playing drove me back a decade. I was entranced by the nostalgia

[@coreyellis3327]

I'm all for this nostalgic content you're always putting out.

[@outotyyppi3739]

I remember back when I first started playing and stuck to F2P for like a year or so and I kept seeing these people come in from the members' worlds with the ava's accumulator on for some reason... I was dead convinced that having the accumulator on would unlock more inventory space, I never even asked them what it was for or what it did, I just assumed, and was 100% convinced and unassuming of any other possibilities, that the accumulator was a roomy backpack in which you could stuff more salmon for your trips to farm limpwurt roots at the hill giants. Eventually learning that it picks up your ammo for you, as cool and useful as that actually was, I was really disappointed since I'd looked forward to another row or two of inventory space... So much so that I never bothered getting it until starting anew over on the old school servers, years later.

[@Mote_Plox]

Hahahaha! I love that. I can totally understand why you would've thought that as a new player back in the day too. I just thought it was a cool backpack that had no use at all. 😂

[@SlowLegs]

I’m just back playing RuneScape and watching RuneScape vids again and literally thought of you tonight and here you are with a new video.. what are the chances? Lol

[@JimMilton-ej6zi]

Every time I see old runescape I get a bit sad, because it was back in a time where the game was about exploration, experiencing things with other players and doing what an MMO was actually originally designed around, but nowadays it's all skilling, and that's literally the only thing the game has to offer :( I remember playing with friends back in the day and we'd just do quests, explore around, show off our houses and other things and that's what runescape was about for me, but because the requirement to do literally anything outside of the F2P areas were always something like "you must be 75 magic to pass here" we didn't get to explore most of anything without being stopped. I kind of wish that runescape did something different to change things up in a way, like make the 99 level requirement 1 mil of XP instead of 13mil, while keeping the actual skill cape itself at 13 mil, so the people who just want to explore around could still beat those requirements in a reasonable amount of time while the people who want to feel accomplished with how much XP they earned could still flex their cape if they wanted.

Speaking of changed NPCs, I noticed a couple of years ago that they had updated King Percival's model in the Fisher Realm but it seems to be completely undocumented in the wiki. He has short black hair with a crown on top of his head but he used to actually have a helmet beneath the crown. If you search for old video guides from the early years of OSRS you can still see the old model, and it seems like the same design is still used in RS3
