Happy someone is making beginning game guides and not just end game content. Good vid

Someones gotta do it :) I started out my channel with noob friendly guides actually

[@shpongle7322]

ProtoxxGaming oh yeah that’s right. Helps many people I bet. I still watch your vids and I’m almost maxed lol.

[@AnhNguyen-hn9vj]

game is only fun when everybody is still a noobie became less interesting at end game content.

[@Kira-yf4ml]

Update: New players now start in Burthrope once they finish Tutorial Island.

[@reapercushions]

And what a zone to start. Feels much better and smoother than the lumby beginning.

[@AsianRailgun]

One more thing, I'd recommend disabling the loading screen. You can go to places quicker without needing to pre-load each area, very nice for questing and such. Great job on the beginner video! Hopefully this will help future players better.

Props for you still putting faith and effort into growing the player base.

[@stemz4anime580]

it will , for me as an example i was playing osrs because everyone said rs3 sucks ( didn't play it since 2007) and once i tried it tbh i really prefer eoc and everything much more than osrs it feels like a really great game ( the only thing is hated is mtx but i dc it doesn't devalue my exp ) so that means more people will be attracted to it like me so the player base will increase

[@KineticSymphony]

[@cowboydup]

thanks for making this, you did a great job! the only thing that is more daunting than learning all the things to do in Runescape, is deciding how to condense it all into a simple beginners guide. my biggest piece of advice is to just focus on discovering one thing at a time about the game. i think the best way to do this is quests, they introduce you to new things, and the skill requirements give you goals to work for

[@ProtoxxGaming]

Exactly! Quests are the best thing to do to explore rs

[@raine-pi3ue]

1. Finish the tutorial 2. Use your spins you get from the 5 minute quests in Burthorpe/Taverley 3. Congrats, you have more wealth than you could possibly need for the forseeable future. When I started a fresh account to see what it was like, I must've had 200K to start off with, PLUS the bonus xp and other gamebreakingly powerful items. I didn't even roll anything rare.

I'm in need of a mid-game tutorial. I have played RS off and on since 2002, so I know all the basics. But I haven't played RS3 since the release of shattered world's. I barely even remember how to do combat abilities and there has been so many updates that I am feeling discouraged about starting back. A tutorial vid or any tips on what to know would be nice

If you are mid level player you are probably looking to get into PvM right? This video might help kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3_damqYhbGdlZY If it doesn't be sure to let me know. I'm open to suggestions as I love to help out players trying to get further in the game.

Think you could do some kinda reintroduction to runescape video targeted towards med/high level players? Am maxed on rs3 (yeah I know that's absolutely nothing and everyone is maxed I've been told) but I'm trying to get my bearings again in rs3 so I can remax when the new skill comes out and I really dont know where to begin theres such an overflow of information and I only stopped playing around the time AoD was released so imagine being someone who quit in 2012 trying to get back into rs3. Heck if it goes well it could be a whole little series. Anyways thanks for the vids regardless theyve helped a ton in my reintroduction.

[@ProtoxxGaming]

Hmmm I could do that. What are the main things that are confusing to you and what do you want to achieve? With that info I could do something

[@CreationsNurf]

Let's spread this video to attract new players! If each person send this video to at least 3 friends would already spread to a lot of people hehe

Im at 1200 total level and i feel like i know nothing about the game its super overwhelming, I want to pvm but know that goal is going to take longer than I anticipated. I think making small managable goals help make the game less overwhelming

Exactly! Setting small goals is the way to go

[@marcusbro2948]

The wiki is really the most important source. There is literally everything there. Other than that get a clan which can help you out and explain stuff. And just enjoy the game, run around, find out for yourself. That is the fun part. When you try to do max efficiency from the get go it takes away a lot of the "adventure" part of the game

Lol, just started trying to play the game again. I am a veteran that stopped in 2013 and came back to osrs in 2018,but stopped with that as well because I just missed that period of RS in which you had the nicer graphics but not EOC combat added. And I must say, it's feeling fun again after playing the game for 2 hours or so today. The prices of some items are hilarious though. Raw beef meat is like 1.5k a piece and other meats as well, which is nice actually lol. Unlike osrs that is riddled with bots and has extremely cheap f2p items making it worthless to farm.

[@holo_val]

as soon as you leave tutorial island you can do quests together. Sometimes quests have certain steps that take you away from the main world into "instanced" scenarios, so during these moments you might be both doing the same task on the same quest but you will not see each other until you complete your task. The rest of the time, you will be talking to the same npcs etc.

I wanted to ask you if could RS3 be a comfy home for me and my friends... me, my friends (+our girls cause we just can't shake them off haha) come from Wow ESO but mainly GW2 we enjoy casual pvp but mostly an adventure we can have together like fighting a dragon or crafting a magic sword to name it and gift it that kind of cheesy stuff. We got tired with action combat and wanted something more "relaxing" . Hope you can make an ideea about this lil' group and tell us your opinion! Thanks a bunch and cheers!

Relaxing? Well here are some casual things you can do with your friends - Do a race to a certain level/amount of experience in a skill (or skills) - Try minigames runescape.wiki/w/Minigames - Go skilling together, maybe cook your friends fished food (idk? Just something random) - Progress together and make your own little clan I say this because most of the fun stuff / group content starts at the higher levels
