Honestly as a recovering fentanyl addict, RuneScape / gaming addiction is pretty serious too. It won't kill you as fast as fentanyl but it can negatively affect your life. If your only social interactions are online and you are spending 40+ hours a week on RuneScape, I would consider seeing if you are a gaming addict. There are surprisingly a lot of support groups for that stuff

I'm glad you moved on. You made the right call. We can't change the past, but we can change what we do from this point forward. I jumped ship 15 years ago and never looked back. It was one of the best decisions of my life. When I did the math and found out I was wasting entire percentage points on my life expectancy playing RS I knew it had to stop. Don't worry its okay you're not the only one who felt this way as I experienced the same feelings of guilt. Good luck and have a good day.

[@therebelofchaos1674]

It's literally no different than working a job you don't wanna work but have to work to put food on the table. I've wasted SO many hours of my life working. At least I enjoy runescape lmfao. It's insane to me that people can feel guilt from losing their time. Not saying you aren't valid for thinking rs is a waste of time, but that it's a simple matter of perspective. Some people view working and/or chores as a waste of time. Some people view education as a waste of time. Some people view hobbies as a waste of time. Some people view relationships as a waste of time. It's not a waste of your time if you enjoyed it. You get out what you put in.

Tbh this video has deeper implications than ‘wasting time on video game achievements”. I’ve experienced this same empty realization after accomplishing many irl goals that people would consider more productive than vidya. It’s really true to life. Once you get to the finish line, you’re like, ‘that’s it? Well okay cool. What now? I guess I’ll do this thing Ive been doing for 10k hours some more!” Damn. I guess the lesson here is, if it was a goal you enjoyed striving for and a skill you enjoy having, it doesn’t matter how long you spent on it or what it is, even if it is just a video game. The end feeling of emptiness is really the same in all cases. Just remember to have fun along the way and enjoy the small moments.

[@BrutalFelix82]

i dont think thats the message at all, given the guy IRL at the end of the video crying at the computer almost immediately after hitting his goal hes crying because he realizes hes wasted his youth on something of no value and will likely continue to do so, like a drug addict that knows they should quit but just cant

Also I really hate bonds system and how expansive membership is. Which is why I barely play runescape at all. But if we brought back time capsule of 2008-2011 runescape I would have continue playing.

The what now feeling is very felt. Osrs is calming. I did blood runes for so long and once it finally 99'd huge waves of anxiety hit. I thought I'd feel accomplished or at least a little joy, not worse. So ok now we are mining gems I guess. Same thing. Eventually you start playing four clients simultaneously. I guess Ironman is the next logical progression. It is kind of a lot of time and energy devoted to something. But nothing in real life is worth as much as runescape. You can grind forever but never really get anywhere in the real world. At least on runescape stuff actually happens. There's clear system, rules, and constraints. I mean sure there's bots diluting your accomplishments but everyone dislikes them and sees them as fake. In real life the fakes are praised and worshipped. Runescape is better.

I got 99 FM as a kid as my first 99. Tbh, I just felt proud. It was one of my first times committing to a long-term goal and following through, practicing sticking with something I'd committed to even when it got boring, instead of just getting yanked around by whatever activity seemed stimulating at the moment. It also inspired my two closest friends to work on a 99 (fletching and cooking.) Ultimately "useless", but no more useless than time spent on any other game, and this one helped practice commitment. Something we look back on fondly.

Personally I'm always multitasking with it, otherwise I'd go insane lol

[@TheInfiniteLabyrinth]

it was NEVER about the cape, it was about doing something that seemed completely impossible.

[@megadeltsmarcy]

This is too accurate. I literally just hit 99 wc and am still cutting redwoods because I haven't gotten pet and sunken cost fallacy is too real

[@camokid95]

This was disturbingly accurate.

At least it's 99% AFK with an infernal axe. You can enjoy other activities such as reading, homework, driving, etc

every time i think about coming back to runescape I think of this video and it puts me right off again saving time and money, thanks!

[@accent11270]

This is pretty relatable unfortunately

[@NeverPlayingRunescape]

Went out and celebrated my first 99 with friends. truly a great experience.

[@bmsturgis3]

I played for days, even skipped sleep to grind out 99 WC as my first 99 back in 2009. Back then I remember watching people throw big 99 parties and everyone would congradulate them. I managed to gather one person to watch me and then got accused of botting by someone walking by. It was pretty pathetic 😄😢

[@mckdogdrums3543]

The voice acting gives me BalloonShop vibes.. man that takes me back. Funny enough I’m woodcutting redwoods in the woodcutting guild and I don’t think I’ll ever stop.. 😅

[@wastingtime6211]

I enjoyed the majority of my time mostly because of the community you can build around yourself in this game. Theres something about the joy of conquering goals that seem unrealistic because of having to spend ungodly hours on it, then having a group of people on the same ride as you Runescape is for the journey, not the destination. I dont even really play a lot of other games anymore, but this game stays with me as one of my favorite hobbies

[@Napoleon_dynamite]

Inaccurate there would’ve have been a bong with dirty water on the computer desk

[@cosmic_sloth]

Runescape was so much more fun when I was learning about how the game worked as a kid. I came back to osrs a few years ago now as an adult, skilled my ass off and got to 80 wc when I just became so acutely aware of what I was doing. I was clicking on the same pixel for hours and hours and hours. And then the fun just stopped. I got like extreme anxiety of wasting my time and now I find it hard to enjoy that kind of grind in any game anymore

[@WutherWave-qc3ud]

This is what hurts playing games I remember just like you I didn’t care about clicking on pixels it was just fun… now as an adult 😅it hits hard at just am I wasting time and most games that are similar I just can’t anymore even though it brought so much joy to me before.

[@StevensSounds]

Bro why does the last scene have like grammy-level raw emotion on a silly short video about a game lol

[@calebcasual]

Because MMOs can be all consuming for some, and may go to greater lengths than you'd expect

[@AnimeHighLife]

This was even more funny for me because wooductting is the only 99 I got on all my accounts. Stopped playing not too long after I got it tbh.

[@gabrielmaisonet7485]

the more i watch the more i enjoy. thank you for carrying and evolving the creative flame

[@zzayy8282]

Inferno cape was a colossal feat that I had accomplished (300m setup) and it felt so good in those 3 or so minutes that felt like hours and I had a massive mood boost for a whole week or more. Failing 1-2 hour attempts is just so fucking brutal. During that time you maintain your resources and play extremely well. It’s extremely exhausting, one mistake which could take place in one tick or 0.6 of a second could set you back two hours. Anyways got 2 zuk attempts before the final third. It was worth the months it had been lingering on my mind for to get that cape.

[@bashdachivo]

This just inspired everybody who’s on their way to keep going 😂😂

[@thedirtbagstash]

This is one of the best short videos about general addiction (not even just vidya) I have ever seen. And I've seen some bangers. Ask for help if you need it y'all.

[@dennisvargas7719]

Runescape should really give their players a cape IRL for achieving such an incredible feat

[@nonyabusiness-f9e]

i just got 99 woodcutting with a rune axe on magic tress last week and i feel personally attacked by this video.

[@Imbrad91]

This spoke to the me in 2004, age 13, who hit 99 wc then continued chopping magic trees for another year just to achieve 3x lvl 99 experience for no reason

[@kranker114]

Then you have me that got 200m xp in Woodcutting the old way. Also, 200m xp in every skill.

[@JoeyG-o8r]

I've heard when RS was originally released the devs did not intend for anyone to max. Back in the day it was super rare.

[@louisjackson286]

This must be where my drug addiction started

[@qweewq-h7p]

Only true gamers member how bluerose13x first got BS to 99, and for a while she was single-handedly producing all of the games rune weapons and gear. The times when rune gear was a myth.
