The Accidental God [OSRS Perspective]

Hail Guthix…

Wait…. So THIS is what I have been holding space bar through???

[@Buki_sandwich]

Yes.

[@barfyman-wn3id]

Only if you've been playing RS3 for years.

[@JoshPillault]

@@barfyman-wn3id From 7:00 onward is absolutely guaranteed OSRS lore, and the parts before that are consistent with what Mod Ed has maintained throughout the series. I have no clue what's up with everybody screaming this is RS3 and being crybabies about this. Look at the outro screen if it bothers you that badly.

[@blazen123]

hey, fantastic video! you gave a disclaimer at the end stating this video is mostly speculative, but in rs3 almost every detail of this is proven true. great job! the only bits where things arent correct are the ones that dont include some of the further information also provided in rs3 and outside sources of canon, perfect job.

[@Darknscary13]

I'm really excited to see the direction the OSRS guys go with the major storylines, and sincerely hope Guthix lives this time around. As fun as the return of the gods and Sliske's wild ride was, it also came with its share of mistakes and letdowns. It is better, in my opinion, that these divine powers stay as legendary figures of the distant past, and we keep our mortal player's focus on the Mahjarrat, Vampyres, pests, trolls, kalphites, whatever the heck the white/temple knights did with their king, what's going on in the desert... There's really no end to cool things to focus on.

[@HolySaintSlayer]

Fun fact the leader of the temple knights is a Cithothian demon loyal to zaros playing undercover and as a leader of a coup of half the white/temple knights that are loyal to Zaros and not Saradomin, i believe he is similar to Duke Succulas

[@demigod8522]

This lore makes me even more excited for the OSRS version of While Guthix Sleeps quest expected to be released as the last update of Summer 2024 on the Winter Summit roadmap

[@TheRSFelon]

Me too! I may have to make an update!

[@wiseoldowl1628]

;( osrs got more of a road map than rs3

[@demigod8522]

@@wiseoldowl1628 Yeah, only stuff they "announced" were their combat beta progress and they gave us a short quest to unlock some jewelry only slightly useful for Necromancy. I'm disappointed at the RS3 team, especially with all the money they're raking in with all their key promos and MTX they have compared to OSRS which doesn't have any and has a proper full 6-month roadmap. I'm hoping things change drastically once the 4th buyout in a decade happens and CVC finalizes the deal and they're not just after squeezing us dry while not prioritizing good content

[@Heropsychodream]

As an rs3 player, osrs is in for a treat if they are getting while guthix sleeps. It's a challenging and iconic quest that's killed many a HCIM over here. I'll be curious to see if the lore differs.

[@ElderWillows]

Guthix is the absolute best god in OSRS, can't wait for more about it.

[@volcom828]

it’s so fucking dope that all this content we’ve been playing for 20 years, some of which may seem random, all tie in to the complete lore. that’s why this game is so god damn good.

[@undeadaeon9992]

Need a RuneScape HBO series

[@Fatcakes1111]

Hey man just wanted to say that this was an extremely well made video. Please more lore videos in the future!

[@JoshPillault]

The Zamorak one just came out :)

[@Galimeer5]

In RS3, it's revealed that after he established the Edicts, Guthix didn't just go to sleep, but began meditating to carefully maintain the balance of the energies required to keep the barriers intact. That's why when he was killed, the barriers fell and the gods were free to return. I like that part of the mythology because it adds to his whole "god of balance" thing, as he spent two eras in a meditative state, actively maintaining a balance on a cosmic scale.

[@TheRSFelon]

That’s sick! Thanks for sharing!

[@arandomwalk]

Such a well composed video

[@juanvillalpando2429]

I saw the title of this video and I liked and subscribed. The more Guthix I see the better

[@theathmz5739]

I've played on and off for 15 years, guthix has always been my favorite. But to know the whole story is surprisingly dramatic and tragic. Very nicely done

[@hexzyle]

Very well told. I'm new to runescape lore and this was very interesting

[@OldQueer]

I've not played RS since 2007 or 2008 but this kind of makes me want to play to do quests. Never had any idea the lore was so intense. Good job on the production of this Josh. It's quite poetic you telling the lore given how much of an impact the game has had on the story of your own life.

[@amp394]

Start with one small favour, excellent quest with plenty of action packed lore.

[@Courier_Seven]

I was doing grand tree, I believe it was and there's a part where you need to find three gnomes for coordinates. The first two you find easy enough but the third when found starts babbling incoherently and speaking irrationally to which your character examines as "the war had taken it's toll on the poor gnomes mind" and you need to go find an alternate way of obtaining the last coordinates. JESUS CHRIST JAGEX GIVE US MORE OF THAT!

[@barfyman-wn3id]

You'll have to play RS3 then because most of this lore is not found in any OSRS quests.

[@kikiohearts]

Man. The youtube algorithm just spit this out at me. So glad i watched it. Been getting back into OSRS and R3 with the husband after not playing since 2008.

[@TheRSFelon]

Welcome back! If you guys want to join my friends chat it’s beginner friendly but we also have plenty of high level players too - the chat name js “Dead Felon” which definitely doesn’t SOUND friendly

[@LoLTerminus]

coming from rs3 i’m stoked to see while guthix sleeps coming in a few weeks

[@WATEmusic]

This is the definition of runebased. Good stuff my boi!

[@rbrtctln]

There were no deserts during the first age. The whole of Gilenor was covered in lush vegetation.

[@1PuffWonder]

Dude this was so well done, you should be very proud.

[@YeaSoWhatBigBoiiii]

please be the osrs lore channel we need

[@vladu__e]

worth mentioning almost none of this is in osrs, but in rs3. Still, most of the events should line up.

[@TheRSFelon]

The new Zamorak video is out!

Zammy is released! It talks about the origins of the Mahjarrat and of course their interactions with the desert pantheon :)

You are such a Storyteller Josh! I listened to your story on Sae Bae, that's how I found this channel. Keep telling stories, doesn't matter if it's your own life story or RS lore. It's excellent!

Greatly made lore vid! Guthix was so amazing! A great story to follow up the “While Guthix Sleeps” quest coming out this year!
