Verf?

[@RsChrisG]

Lol I'd argue Verfs was much crazier just not as hyped up.

[@hoodieninja_7203]

I think it's really cool how lore-fitting this series has been. The theatre is a means to entertain the vyres and give the people of Morytania false hope for power, freedom, and treasure. And here we are, a player trapped in Morytania, who lost damn near everything to the vampyres, completing a challenge that in-lore is supposed to be as close to impossible as the vyres can make it. Serafina would be proud of this one, I think.

I still remember when I first started watching series I think a year or two ago and initially found it hilarious watching this guy trap his character in the most depressing region of RuneScape clicking for hours on that bridge trying to get your agility up. Upon following the series I became very invested I still remember watching you attempt to kill a boss (was it a vampire?) in that underground place with the carts and thought it was impossible. Yet you somehow did it. Little did I know that even that task would be incomparable to the feats you were going to accomplish with this series. This series came with far more than entertainment. It brought us on a journey with you. A journey through hills and valleys. A journey of memories and life lessons. This adventure will go down as the BEST series in RuneScape history. Thank you Settled.

[@backpackzak8448]

Okay so literally this entire movie gave me chills. That middle cutcene. Swampletics walking slow mo and putting on the guthans helm was the coolest thing I've seen. Gave me literal chills.

[@danm382]

PLEASE PLEASE get who ever animated this to make an osrs short movie. The ToB cutscenes scent chills down my spine watching our character (the runescape avatar that we've all played as for so many years) come to life and fight those enemies. Awe-inspiring work that makes me feel like a kid again. Thank you.

[@trainerbrock2428]

It was literally the kind of experience we dreamt about as kids

Fyi, the animator is "LilSmokey", he has more of those "came to life" animations of RS characters (and bots) on his YT.

[@UnderdoneProductions]

Took me a couple of weeks to get around to watching this video, had to re-watch everything else first to get back up to speed. Can't even put into words what it's been like getting to watch you grow as a content creator over the last few years. I remember watching some of the grinds in your old UIM series and thinking how insane they were, funny looking back in comparison to the type of shit you're pulling these days. Much love settled, thanks for being who you are and sharing it with us.

"The impossible is that which cannot be done. Until someone does." Through teary eyes I never expected to have towards a Runescape video I can only say this: Here's to the next incompletable challenge, Swamp Man.

@@tvmanin To experience raw human emotion of pure joy and pride is a beautiful thing, regardless of the source. If it does not bring you joy to see others in a state of joy, that is sad and points to your own insecurities.

[@coralovesnature]

@@tvmanin so what? Settled is a good man, a compelling storyteller, and a great video editor. Swampletics as a series has been just an all around great series, much the same as a commercially produced show or movie, and people feel emotional about those all the time. If you haven’t been here for the ride leading up to this point, idk why you’re here now.

[@jdawgH]

This dude is out of his freaking mind. That little cutscene midway through was the best osrs animation I've ever seen! I've been playing this game since I was 5, 2001, before adamant armor was even in game, and THIS right here is exactly why I still play today

[@marim-yt]

This series is what got me back into runescape. I was always a bit worried that no finale could possibly live up to my impossibly high expectations at this point, but once again you managed to knock it out of the park. I'm pumped to see what new narratives you will have for us in the future. I enjoy your other videos too, but your style of telling a story with the game is unmatched and is a really special talent.

[@TooMuchDad]

I never thought any OSRS series could rival One Man Army. It was groundbreaking, entertaining, and defined how people played the game for years to come. It basically came to define what an Ironman was, and so many of the strategies from that series are mainstays today. Swampletics was the same. Every area locked account after has learned from this series, has been shaped and inspired by it. The grind to 99 Hunter is so iconic, and ties all these disparate, lonely accounts together. And it started here. Leagues restricting players to specific regions started here. Swampletics had changed both the OSRS entertainment landscape, and also the game itself. I don’t know if there will ever be another series like it, but I’m damn glad I was here to experience it. Swamp man good

[@kookoo275]

While this is the best RuneScape series and maybe the best KZbin series of all time, there were a lot of other region locked Ironmen before swampletics. I wish he had shouted out to verf's karamja Ironman more as his was the first really popular one and I think he got the clue juggling + other strats from him

[@001SuperPlayer]

@@kookoo275 so true!!

[@TooMuchDad]

@@kookoo275 yeah there were also many well before that. EZScape made a desert locked one when he was still a RuneScape KZbinr. But B0aty also wasn’t the first one to do an Ironman. But he popularized and perfected it in a series imo, just like Swampletics.

[@Diddathappen]

Settled deserves some type of in game dedication to "his" tile. Not only a humble gamer, but a true legend.

[@wil4813]

I thought the same thing, there's no way they aren't gonna do that. Surely Jagex will throw some kind of easter egg on that tile, maybe a watermelon spawn or something lmao

[@Rolienolie34]

I think RuneLite will have it be an automatically marked tile. :)

[@Fatal_Jinx]

Yeah they should. I remember during leagues they had a task to get a rune crossbow from a lucky imping. So it’s definitely possible.

[@Arcade13]

Should put a golden lock on the tile

[@JommyBaby]

Would be hilarious if they repath that area and make it a blank tile you cant walk on. When you exam it says “thats not your tile, its his”

[@green_guy73]

Absolutely incredible! I'm not a hardcore osrs fan, I played the game when I was a kid and come back to it as a casual player every once in a while. (Always f2p) I just want to say that, despite never even encountering Morytania and the challenges it holds, I felt engaged throughout your entire journey. More than that, I am inspired by your diligence and commitment to achieve your goal and create this work of art from it. :)

I feel that on a side note. The fact that they attempted maiden even with sub par gear brought a realization to at least me on just how difficult the TOB was supposed to be. Sure everyone is used to seeing youtubers breeze through runs in Max gear but this was the first time as a casual player I've seen the actual mechanics that make it end game content.

And So, the swamp man prevailed over Versik, his spear and whip adorned with her blood. The treasure room, despoiled of goods. A helmet of justice, taken as a trinket of achievement. His final shackle had been broken. A person bound to the realms of darkness, swamp, decay, and death, had managed to rise up, and defeat the Theatre of Blood once and for all. Adventurers from all over Gielinor came to Morytania, ready to assist the person they dubbed "Swampletics". His shades (a cold one, KempQ, TashKent) found eternal rest after the first victory. He was no longer sharing his burden alone. Exotic weapons which the swamp man had never seen before slew Lady Versik again and again. One day, the Swamp man thought, he could escape Morytania, and adventure outside of its realm, journey into lands that he had never seen. But was it time? Perhaps not, he thought. He was of Morytanian blood, and the River Salve burned his very soul as sat at its banks. If he were to cross, It would have to be with purpose. And so, his coffin filled with hope, dreams, and a notarized bank note for all of the watermelons he had grown himself strapped to his back, he guarded Morytania. His gear, of a long dead warrior whose spear gave salvation and life to its wearer, Darts and delicious delectable pies from mysterious implings of dragon descent, Potions of Prayer from Implings that were barely visible to the naked eye, and other supplies, were at his command. Time was all he needed to gather them up, which was no matter. The rise to the top meant that things other, more common adventurers took for granted were a luxury. Agility had to be done at a ramshackle grove with a broken bridge. Hunting had to be practiced on the go with implings that strayed into the realm, or with the easy to catch nearby lizards, but even that had to be taught by supernatural wisdom by a genie. the art of Slayer had to be taught by Book knowledge from assisting people wanting to escape Morytania. but he remained. For he was Swampletics, and this was his story.
