Crucial Decision - Lynx Titan

Hi. I feel like it's my responsibility to make another description edit (12/12/16) to clear some things up regarding this video. I didn't expect that some people would interpret what I said in a completely different way than what my actual intention was with uploading this. Misunderstandings does happen, therefore I want to clarify:
I'm editing the description (~12/9/16) to explain what I meant at 3:15.
- If something unexpected occured IRL (losing interest in the game for example), which would have prevented me from uploading a worthy video and discussing these topics in the future.
Perhaps I should have phrased that sentence a little differently.
Thanks for all the kind support.

[@rsviore]

Are you doing good man? Take it easy buddy, I love you

[@rithvik]

i love both of you

[@hellowill]

You shoulda been rank 2 behind lynx man

[@funkhc]

respect man you are a smart guy whatever you end up deciding to do you will excel at it keep your head up and maintain your attitude you are a good human being

[@Shortdood]

i ate Lasagna tonight and i thought of you. good luck and god speed

[@victorsa4710]

whatever you choose to do in life you are probably gonna be very good cause you are very dedicated

[@MrNoSleepOSRS]

much love my dude

[@Awenixx]

Your dedication is unparalleled Lynx, so much respect

[@Ajones51lhssfootball]

It's pretty simple. Lynx Titan uploads a video, I stop my truck in the middle of traffic to watch bc efficiency.

[@ZuluOnly]

Keep doing you Lynx, you're a beast

[@Mnguyen92]

When 200m is done, go for the comp cape. Getting all pets/champ scrolls/ castle wars items/ trouble brewing. Do those completionist thing on stream twitch

[@Mnguyen92]

The community would love to see you on twitch and it's really good content

[@jokurandompappa]

mt nguyen Yes. Basically do everything possible done what you can do in this game.

[@danielgreenhill7388]

amazing idea support

[@VallianceRS]

Sounds like a good idea but truly lacks the "progress" he talks about enjoying. Mainly in the pets and scrolls, which is all RNG. The scrolsl don't take too long

[@ROBOMAN9110]

mt nguyen boom problem solved

[@Oskari8589]

thought this would be about bread vs. lasagne

[@JeetMamba]

Idk if it's just me lynx, but you sound mentally out of it. If playing this much ever becomes too much you should just stop playing and not risk your long term health.

[@Shark0wns]

I think hes refering to what he said, not how he said it

[@arky4041]

So you're saying he's mentally out of it and then thinks he can "just stop playing bro!"? I think you must be the one mentally out of it.

[@ProTacooRS]

Rasmusb did you realize that he did record the video before he did upload it?

[@aaaaaa-wd3eb]

Of course he's mentally ill, but this is all he has in life

[@arashiarashi1185]

dw, hel be alright

[@Yautjaprime]

god has spoken

[@Yautjaprime]

we are not worthy of his words

[@zelios2361]

You need to learn how to trade stocks, forex or futures. You can sit in front of the computer, make actual money, and set goals just as you would in rs. Thanks for the upload!

[@jacobftww]

Or lose money...

[@meessmit1103]

if you are good you won't lose money lmao

[@zelios2361]

jacobftww knowing Lynx, he probably wouldn't lose money.

[@NigelPK]

Zelios It is impossible/very unlikely to learn how to make always profit from that. It's pure gambling because of the complexity and all the improbabilities in the world.

[@NigelPK]

Mees Smit Being 'good' as in making profit, is more based on luck than skill when trading.

[@randomnumbers710]

Lynx Titan you are a fucking legend. Never let anyone bring you down. #proud

[@Makaveli_93]

200m Agility on 6 accounts, it's still all about Agility. But yeah you should probably just do Ironman after for variety's sake.

[@mmww_]

JEBWUM

[@Buzzii9]

I'm sure you will do well in whatever decision you ultimately make just keep doing whatever makes you happy, we all love and support you!

[@DiamondPilotDan]

I don't understand how you can click that tree for hours, days, even weeks of just clicking that tree, while the world is happening around you, and you're missing it all completely. Makes me sick that anyone would throw their life away like this

[@Aziz4runescape]

much love, Forsberg

[@romaevivit7932]

From one man to another I hope you lead a fulfilling life. Cheers.

[@boatsnhoes5670]

As much shit as you get, I think its cool how much time you spend in game. Whatever social challenges you face man (people ridiculing your time in game, or whatever else) keep it real man. You're you, you do what you enjoy, and that makes you happy. Really wish to see more of you in the community man.

[@Jesse-cx3sk]

Hope youre ok mate just keep moving on

[@NigelPK]

Listen to non-fiction audiobooks to expand knowledge while grinding.

[@jtommyboi]

What good is knowledge of the real world gonna do him? He left reality behind ages ago.

[@AidanOP]

May sound really random but maybe try fitness or body building, it's something that takes a lot of time, dedication and spirit to reach an achievable goal Lynx the maxed runescape #1 body builder. A nice title, either keep at what you enjoy :)

[@OsmanagicAlen10]

I actually super agree with this. Bodybuilding is a form of art, takes a lot of dedication to sculpt the body you really want. A healthy mind=healthy body.

[@tigershav]

Aidan OP Guess you didn't actually listen to the video

[@DragonRider520]

Ya, role playing video gamers are excellent body builders. Working out and making gains irl is almost like leveling up in game.. If you are completely new to bodybuilding, you will have whats called the "nooby gain" and your progress will slowly decrease as you gain more and more muscle.. Its almost exactly like runescape.

[@tigershav]

DragonRider520 Don't think you can gym for 18 hours a day but ok.

[@AidanOP]

一角獣 Lmao ofcourse not, but it could take a good several hours, and most of the day! having to prep for meals he'd learn to cook there is alot more to it tbh the whole lifestyle is rather enjoyable imo.

[@KILLKIDspeedrun]

My opinion and advice is "ta livet av dig värdelösa kuksugare". It's a Swedish saying meaning take each day as it comes and don't worry too much about it

[@TheKelh3]

Cool to hear rank 1 as always. Would you consider completionist goals post 200m all? BIG fan.

[@havochot]

You need something that gave you the same drive to go 200m all. If you feel that doing it a second time won't give you the same satisfaction, which is a valid thought, then keep searching for something that might. I don't know what that may be but my advice is to keep an open mind to both new and old things, things you may have glanced over in the past. The ability that you have, or gift if you will, can be shaped to do a lot of different things. Good luck

[@mmww_]

Wtf are you OK buddy? What you said at 3:15 ....

[@Aaron__B]

Hey man, long time no talk. If you have already thought about this before I apologize, but my suggestion is to maybe take some online classes while you do skills that are less click intensive. I literally have the exact same mindset as you, I play RS while looking at forums/videos/music/homework. In the same way forums and other things can help pass the time on RS, playing RS on the side can help pass the time with any work. I treated passing a class the same way as going for a 200M, and it felt similar as well when I finished it. As long as I was multiasking RS and work and making progress on both of them I was satisfied. It might not sound appealing at first but in the end you might end up with something that gives your life a different purpose than just RS. And I don't mean that in a bad way, I and many others consider you the best player to ever play this game and your accomplishments are not a waste of time but eventually you will have exhausted most meaningful RS accomplishments and will have to move to something else. You are obviously very talented and starting some easy online classes one the side will barely change up your RS routine since they won't require too much effort and will be slow paced compared to your standards. 200M all on Lynx Titan probably won't last you until you're done with them if you decide to do so so I would start an ironman after and just keep doing that in the meantime until you (possibly) decide to do something else. I finished all of my classes and I love my job and feel much more fulfilled as a person compared to when I just played RS only. I multitasked everything on my journey and I'll finally finish all 200M's on RS3 at the end of this month without using any spins or alts and I'll still enjoy both life and RS afterwards (I'm going to go for true trim on RS3 and possibly start some 07, I am already almost insane final boss). I would also like to add there are jobs where you don't have to interact face to face such as telecommuting a networking or programming job from home (I'm not a face to face person either), and still get a very fulfilling sense of purpose from it. Anyway take care and good luck on whatever you decide on doing!

[@SteelmanHarvey]

bless you mate, what a candid video, just keep doing what you do best mate and you will always have supporters. i personally love my ironman, it might be interesting to you to complete a different gamemode style instead of maxing (your rc alt?) the same as lynx. although i have to admit seeing a 2nd account on top page after you max lynx would be beyond bad ass. just do what you want mate and i will be rooting for you regardless.

[@nathanshabdolt726]

You should stream !! at least make money while playing so much :)

[@Zunkrah]

Do what you feel like doing, you're a legend man just do whatever makes you think will make you happy

[@iamme725]

I think some of us can understand how your decisions and what you do, and that you shouldn't feel the need to validate other people's concerns of your lifestyle. Things are how they are, and you know best what is best for you. Keep doing what you do Lynx.

[@zily2]

Play an ironman :)

[@zily2]

Thinking about it wasn't the best to recommend something on Runescape, I should focus my recommendation on something outside of runescape as new things, imo, are the best thing for people to do. Everybody would love to hear about what you're interested in and your plans, you seem like a great guy we aren't just here for the good xp gains :)

[@arashiarashi1185]

its not a fucboy, its a dumb girl lookin for attention

[@arashiarashi1185]

shut the fuck up

[@Yeplols]

Well if you truly think reality outside of runescape isn't for you, which I seriously think you should reconsider because runescape isn't reality and for sure isn't on the list of things of importance that this reality requires (and I think many people who've played runescape their whole life or are at least to an extent addicted to it at this point in time become distracted to the true nature of the reality they're actually living right this second in to the deepest extent that our minds naturally don't even think about), but if you really just don't want to explore what is out there for whatever your reasons are, play an ironman account or set completionist goals on your main. Try get ever every unique drop in the game for the fun of it and every minigame reward, pet hunting and whatever else. Your goals and play-style don't have to be based around being the best or being unique or always progressing in some way that gives yourself no break, playing a game should be all about having fun and enjoying your time on the game. Like you said that you watch shows, listen to music, browse forums etc etc, these are tools you're using to distract yourself from the actual bordem YOU know you would be experiencing, I understand this usually comes with the game anyway and its about the accomplishments that make it worth your time but it's to the point where your mind is just too set on never wasting time off of your runescape account, like I could just as easily every spend entire days, weeks and months grind out skills while watching shows so I'm set on the goals, never distracted and ensure I complete them as fast as I possible can, but I realize too soon that I'm doing it for the sake of not losing time on my runescape account and ending goals asap, and at that point is where you've lost touch with whats actually important in life, runescape really is not that important at all. And that's the problem, wasting time is living without a purpose. Don't let your purpose in this reality be playing games when they literally are made for your enjoyment, not to progress as fast as u can using distractions just so the so called 'enjoyment' is over as fast as u can make it over, the type of enjoyment you have playing runescape for your very first time is what real enjoyment is, games are not made to live your life on. Just please reconsider your position in life and don't take it for granted, know that you can do infinitely more outside of the game and that there are millions of people out there who would do anything to have your opportunity at living life. Above all of this, Ignore everything I just wrote. This is your best solution to everything; go somewhere or take a trip somewhere out of you country that you can get your hands on 5 grams of dried psilocybin containing mushrooms and eat them in an accepting, peaceful and preferable night time/dark setting(or go to the amazon and part take in an ayahuasca ceremony) . Please don't just take this as a joke, the reality your mind knows right now is a mere fragment of what you're yet to realize over your entire lifetime. Please don't let the negative stigma of mind expanding psychedelic tools back you away from ever exploring them, it will be the best decision you WILL have ever made in your entire life. You could first even do research on them while you play rs and learn about them to see they're not just a 'drug' for 'hippies' and ever bad connotation people connect to those words. Goodluck with your life fellow human, much love

[@2496OnRS]

are u trying to make his head implode or what

[@Yeplols]

I mean I kind of am tbh. He's had a dedicated lifestyle to a game for such a long time now, it's going to be hard to break out, explore and learn about the reality outside of it. And he's got the perfect mind for it, it's almost fresh of any influence besides what he observed on the internet.

[@WhosTanga]

stay strong brother life will unfold as it should

[@guitarforlife238]

I don’t know if you will ever see this but you are my hero man I hope whatever you are doing 6 years later you are enjoying it I’ll never forget checking the high scores every day watching your minning level go up waiting for your achievement Cheers mate

[@pinolanuts69]

Great video man, cool to hear about the future plans.

You nuts? Dying is xp waste

@@jtommyboi LOL

[@InsanityYT]

Man are you okay? I kinda feel like this is your last video in a while.. Speak up to us, the subscribers :)

[@dominiciervasi1176]

He has serious ocd, so he needs a goal to strive towards and gets used to repetitive behaviour. I feel you bro, I can relate. I feel like once you get 200m exp in all skills, there is no point doing it all over again, you should take a 6 month break off runescape, when I say break, I mean you can still play it, but you are not obliged to play it and have no runescape goals to strive towards. Basically playing casually, you have probably never done this before but you should try it out after you are done. Just try to chill and find yourself for a good 6 months, you are a dedicated and driven guy, find your new calling, try to go outside more too. I just know there are great things waiting for people like you. You have a very high level of dedication and concentration that most people don't have. People might see your condition as a limiting trait, but depending on what you do, your traits can be quite enhancing. You might find yourself stock trading, drawing, becoming an exercise guru, who the fuck knows. Anyway goodluck and godbless.

[@SlanderMonkey]

SKÅL from Sweden! keep doing what you enjoy :)

[@Sikletrynet]

Hey I had the same mindset as you when I was 14-17 and I think¨a good way out of it is university. You only spend a few hours on lectures per day and then you can study however you want at home, Its a good way to learn new skills and improve your career status for the future. You dont have to socialize that much either for the most part. And you still get alot of time to play games and stuff in your free time :P

[@XiaoAiden]

It would be really nice to see a efficient player like you to stream any type of ironman. I know over half the rs community would love to watch anything you stream tbh. Whatever you do, I hope you enjoy it. Take care, man. 😄

[@Garrzilla]

Maybe try to do things IRL? Love you man keep it up

[@Overfletch]

I did not expect these feelings from a Lynx video. Would love to see you post more often (or even try streaming?), and I wish you luck on the gains :)

[@Frog4012]

Remember you're still pretty young, like 20 now? you've got impressive dedication and i'm sure you'll be able to put it to use with whatever you decide to do next.

Lynx if you are not decided what to do then you should stream on twitch a lot of people on the rs community loves you and interacting with your viewes will be fun i hope you can read this comment and think about it! You are a huge inspiration, much love from Brazil. Sorry for any english mistakes.

[@Sean.Vosler]

BTW that's 38,000 hours played for the curious... (to put that in perspective, an average PHD degree takes about 9,300 hours...) dude you could honestly go through almost ALL of MIT's online free training: ocw.mit.edu/courses/ - before long you could have quite a diverse set of IRL knowledge :) ALSO if you're into tech, you could learn programming with CodeAcademy... Truth is - you could use this time to expand your knowledge and possibly explore other interests where you create things - that's always fulfilling that being said... i think you should have 4 honorary PHD's in runescape

[@J0M0T]

Sean Vosler codeacademy makes me feel depressed

[@NickInts]

[@LordMoopCow]

really i found free code academy to be great i learned so much

[@J0M0T]

Really sucks how you streamed and then got crashed by shit people. I didn't watch it, I just heard that you streamed. Good job on doing that bro! Don't let the shit people ruin streaming for you, maybe just don't stream WC where you are in a position for people to crash you. You could give streaming a go when you do agility, or even in the future when you do prayer+runecrafting. I'd really love to see that! you have all the support from me brother

[@TheClassicWorld]

900 days played by 2016 and Drumgun had about 2,000 (though he wasted some time in around 2001-). I have around 500 days played (1b total XP across many accounts). That means, by around 900 days played, I will have around 2b total XP, whereas, Forsberg has archived over 6b total XP by 900 days (along with billions on OS). For max XP, therefore, I would require at least 2,000 days. The game is also much easier now than 15 or even 10 years ago.

[@pyx9695]

Well, the day has come.

[@thelatestartosrs]

I have been playing Runescape for many years and I must say one of the most fun things I've tried has to be Ultimate ironman on release. I've never tried DMM because I thought I wouldn't like it and for the same reason you might not try UIM. I also have to say I did add "on release" after UIM because I think competing on hiscores was fun, though, for you, starting years late will not be a problem to compete for ranks :) Good luck on 200M all, you are the only one able to do it

[@soswiiift]

If and only if it interests you, it would be extremely interesting to watch you go for completionist and pvm related content like all pets, or reqs for trimmed comp. If you do, streaming your gameplay with some music in the background would be awesome, and I think a lot of people would watch. Regardless you're a beast man, gl with the rest of 200m all

You know lynx, I have been tracking ur gains in osrs since I've noticed you on the high scores and I've started to care about u or what u do on osrs even though you don't have much videos I really do care about u, so please make more videos or start streaming to show more about ur self. Much love,ur #1 fan

[@Michael_Dominic]

Dear Lynx, I'm really interested in learning how to play more efficiently. I was wondering if you would be able to detail what sort of alternate accounts you use to assist in maxing your main account. Cheers and keep grinding

[@hellowill]

rc alt , 2 shop alts, 7 ge alts iirc

[@Michael_Dominic]

dam I can't even handle 1 g.e. alt :p

[@biunzRS]

I have 30 alts, biggest ors collection in game, check out my vid

[@Michael_Dominic]

biunzRS you'd have to link me. I've got close to 30, 10 with bgloves but lately I've been focusing on maxing my "main" main

[@biunzRS]

oh im just talking about g.e alts lmao. Id have to link you? Just search biggest ors collection in game or click my profile lol

[@robrick5493]

I'm here to answer that first question

[@followwind1471]

To be honest you're never to old to start trying new things in life, I mean runescape is really just a small particle of the posibilitys out there. Such a determined person as you could achieve great things in life, would be a waste to spill all that talent to just one video game. You could make so much more of life but in order to do that, you'll need to give other things a try aswell :P

Please stream on Twitch.

[@abra238]

perhaps max a [/hardcore] ironman and an [/hardcore] ultimate ironman?

[@BescapeYT]

More KZbin content would definitely be something to try. In addition, I know the idea of you potentially streaming has been mentioned countless times. I'm not sure if you have an interest in that, but it'd be dope to see a Lynx Titan stream here and there, or even all the time. Even if it's just pure gameplay and no commentary. You'd easily pull thousands of viewers.

[@AnonAsd]

I like how you say more content...

[@joe59788]

I'm here after the 200m all. I'm happy for you man. Keep playing scape or another game its up to you.
