God I have missed 9Rain's editing and commentary style so much!!! So glad you are back and I cannot wait to support the absolute hell out of your new videos!!

[@MaybyAGhost]

Oooh some 9Rain with all the epic storytelling, beautiful voice acting, and drama to make my night! I look forward to parts 2&3...and of course after that I'm sure you'll be showing off NyNieve in HD! Love you

[@prynsu]

"I would do terrible things to good people to get my hands on it" LMAO that was iconic.

[@bcaffiene94]

I haven’t checked out a lot of 9rain content, and by that I mean this is my first video. And it is a masterpiece! The humor is on point. New sub

[@YungAngel13]

THe Spicy Stew Grind brought back terrible memories of boosting for Diary's, being down for days in the fucking basement , and being defeated emotionally when the stews didn't boost high enough and I had to go back

[@zoepancakes]

it has been a whole year since i’ve even opened my eyes in anticipation for this. i froze myself in an ice block and set a timer. thank you for setting me free 9rain

[@vinnyvangogh2426]

I did the same, but my alarm was set up to my youtube notifications and his were the only ones on, its nice to be awake but couldn't he have waited until it was a little cooler out? Going from frozen in a block of ice to 110 degrees has not been pleasant

[@jackderaway]

It’s the waffle girl!

[@meldivz]

The use of Eden Promise: Eternity's theme was awesome. Glad to see you're back, I don't play OSRS but I love watching content creators like you

[@Homura.Did.Nothing.Wrong.]

Fuck I knew I recognized it but couldn’t place where it was from, feel kinda dumb now lmao

[@aspactnoir6362]

It had me traumatized because I pugged uptime line lions for weeks.

[@zaca8845]

Yesss king this was worth the wait, fucking fantastic man so keen for the next few parts!! Awesome that you ended up splitting it into parts, you weren't sure on the latest ep of Bankstanding but glad ya did, keep it up you sexy hunk you

[@OOFS125]

You make such boring OSRS grinds seem so fun. 1 year later was definitely worth the wait. 10/10 for the Content ❤️

[@kryotos2766]

The fact the first few words of this video are "gripping the shaft of my ", i already know its gonna be a good video.

[@jreverie7018]

your editing is fantastic. you put in so much effort and its very apparent and appreciated!

[@maxtidd5385]

Hell yeah man. So happy to see a 9rain video.

[@tangolimanov]

No joke, i had just checked your uploads and community tab, to see if I missed an upload or any news, doubled checked that the bell was rung and badda boom, upload right before my eyes. Good to have you back, bud

[@WeSkillNow]

EXCELLENT work :))) so inspiring, love the narration and background music

[@9Rain]

Brian :) Bryan? Breighon. :D

This man just started a video with “gripping my shaft”

[@9Rain]

came looking for this comment. wasn't surprised it was you.

[@TastyLifeRS]

@@9Rain ;)

[@P_zrs]

I was getting anxiety seeing you with all the zenytes in your inventory at once, but then I remembered even if you accidentally made extras, at this point you could sell them and rebuy the pieces lol

[@theraginmexi]

same!!

[@ya1c75]

You're a legend! Welcome back! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who procrastinates for the sake of efficiency. Currently procrastinating jad on my iron because there are like 5 more things I want in order to make the slayer grind more efficient in order to hopefully get a jad task to get my fire cape to make slayer even more efficient so I can get the level for Monkey madness 2 which is one of my last quests for Quest cape.. don't even ask about song of the elves.. 😭

[@Chocolate83Bunny]

personally did mm2 right before jad on my iron and i haven't played since i got the fire cape after 22 attempts lmao

[@mag1cally569]

Efficiency is doing things with the least amount of time and effort. If you spend 6 hours for a 10% damage increase in a 3 hour activity, that's less than 18 minutes saved.

[@ya1c75]

@@Chocolate83Bunny that is what I am trying to avoid. I'm not going to grind out the cape but I will just do a Jad task whenever it comes up to avoid burnout. Luckily I have some experience on my main, but stats and gear are totally different on the iron 😅

[@ya1c75]

@@mag1cally569 that's true if you are only counting the 3 hour activity. The way I see it is I have to do these tasks eventually, why not do them before I do the thing I want to do in order to make the thing I want to do more efficient. So 6 hours on a 10% damage increase also means I am 6 hours closer to maxing or some other goal. And that 10% damage increase can be applied to much more than just the 3 hour activity..

[@crybaby870]

of all the great yt content creators i can't believe i wasnt subbed to you! awesome content time to watch the whole series!!

[@garrettgallant715]

Never clicked a video faster, love your vids!

[@bobforester6151]

Hey if you're worried about not making enough videos, upload videos about other games or stuff you've been doing. People watch your content for you my dude

[@plum999o]

I would totally watch 9rain do other non-rs or even non-gaming stuff!

[@mainr7142]

Personally I would only watch 9rain do runescape related stuff but that's just me

[@kolasis4994]

For real. He has an animated personality that just makes others laugh.

[@dangitnicky]

That intro is the best 57 seconds I've seen in a long time.

[@demikus]

you got a great personality and I enjoy your humor. Even if you don't do runescape, I would still watch your stuff.

[@gnifemaul]

Genuinely smiled when I saw this video come up on my homepage. Like seeing an old friend, and then watching that old friend stub their toe real bad. Heartwarming.

[@sambutler353]

Fuck yes! 9rain is back! I've legit been searching ur page every week to check i haven't missed content

[@kolasis4994]

I cracked up when you said "from the top down" then went from the bottom up in just shear panicked excitement. That really got me, I do that kinda stuff all the time.

[@kat9756]

OMFG that's me to the left at 17:43

[@jafarabbas9785]

You made me start this game again a while back but eventually the grind broke me and the duel arena finished me off. Your vids remind me why I quit but they're awesome.

[@jayvanno847]

Enjoyed this very much, just subscribed. Keep up the progress dude. Saradomin be with with you.

[@jessealot]

Last year's league burnt me tf out. Completed GWD, got pet Kree, dropped it all on the floor. Just came back after 6 months.

[@LeftJoystick]

Nearly exactly the same story here.

[@mewnessbro]

The soup rant is the greatest bit I've ever seen from a runescape video lmao. That was amazing.

[@supercasual4261]

Excellent to see you back! My ironmain is also doing the roundabout route to bandos. Stuck in corrupted gauntlet hell currently.

[@HarmlessX]

9rain: zenytes will go back up Now: cries in 9mil per shard

[@cIeetz]

if there's one thing I learned about RuneScape, is that it gets You in a grind mindset. You have to dedicate long hours and focus on goals. You translate that same energy to whatever you do after You quit, and You find huge success very fast. Just remember though, that in real life, its alot more on the line and more responsibility comes with maintaining the success. You cant just create a new account. Peace and blessings in 2022 and beyond

[@Avrah]

"...but you see the torture wasn't the real goal" ..oh i think it was the real goal. for what thou endured was very real torture.

[@wesHD15]

I like how you go from the depths of despair to "I'm a god" within seconds of making the amulet

[@Steven-ob4lp]

Always get worried when channels go quiet for looking periods. You're one of the more comedic RS players which makes your videos more enjoyable.

[@papabear185]

9rain I love the commentary keep that energy!

[@scater287]

Glad to have you back

[@andrewwilson3858]

Welcome back brother 9Rain. Your victory is within reach

All i have to say about this masterpiece, it was definately worth the wait. I hope you reach the fanbase you deserve, ten times over.

Appreciate your grinding! Love this series!

Yesss this is what I've been waiting for

[@krisyums]

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!! What a great video to kick off the Bandos storyline of 9Rain!

[@samipajari5861]

I just realized I had withdrawal symptoms from 9Rain videos. It all makes sense now.

paused @ 00:53 and smashed the sub button off the intro alone. well done my guy

man i didnt even realize it had been so long. glad youre back!

[@jakegentry5214]

Dude I was literally thinking about your videos today and was planning on looking at ur channel, super glad to see this video pop up on my main page before

[@whoisthatthingwhat]

something about this video is just so much more engaging than 90% of all other osrs contect creators. i think its your way of presenting irdk.

[@OMGVLS]

I quit RuneScape about 8 times a year, then it kills 2 weeks of my life.

[@delicious9930]

Same. Every time I come back Ill no life for 2 weeks

[@SonBellamy]

GOD IV MISSED THIS SO MUCH!! Just rewatched the whole thing again couldnt wait for the next one haha now i gotta wait again

[@AceAntioch]

This 18-minute KZbin video made me play Runescape again.

:)

[@kwam6919]

Is this the redemption arc where the protagonist has to reconnect with what matters to him most so he is powerful enough to overcome his enemies in the third act?

[@SnikenCS]

"Holy coaly" is my favorite part of this video lmao, upload more more more!

[@jacobbrown130]

9rain is the personification of every casual player glad I found this channel!

[@sasscastle5584]

Holy shit I was not expecting to hear the FF14 Final Eden Boss Theme in a fucking 9Rain video lmao. Props my guy.

[@krisyums]

What got me extremely hyped for the video was that it opened up with Demons Souls music... you won me over, Sir.

[@wimble6330]

A year in the making and still 9Rain isn't at Bandos XD Sick video man. You clearly put a shedload of effort into it and can't wait for the next one!

Welcome back

[@lkmdude8094]

I remember forever ago on the podcast you said that it was more likely that you got what you wanted on the first kill than to go this dry. Can't wait to see the story of how you persevered.

[@TheClassicWorld]

'Spending 500 hours getting a thing will help me, even though I could have just spent 200 hours doing the thing without the thing, and still had 300 hours left over to make up for the fact I didn't have the thing for the thing. But, then again, I really need that thing.' - 9Rain, prolly

[@bobbytremmel8078]

This is honestly the best thing I've seen hahaha

[@Zendreax]

3:54 is pretty much the same reality incursion I experience after I played the game consistently for 2 weeks then I quit for like 6 months and come back to repeat the same process.
