Onechunk Ironman is a community-invented Oldschool Runescape game mode all about the grinds... or is it? Today I'm discussing whether Onechunk deserves its reputation as some sort masochistic endurance challenge, or if there's more to the game mode than losing your mind to a 1000 hour grind.
Huge thank you to everyone who helped make this video possible and the many trailblazers who set the groundwork for all the creators who have followed!

as far as i know in pvm they can earn like 5-10 bonds an hour giving them enough lamps to get 200m in like a week without actually doing the skill.
Yeah I gotta agree, the discovery that comes from a depth over breadth search into your chunks lore really is the most enjoyable part for me. Tying together all the weird interactions possible within the area and making something cool and unique out of it is the essence of emergent gameplay. Proper wacky that a 400 year old point and click browser java adventure game can still provide this level of complexity.
Lmfao 400 years, but agreed and well said! Love me some emergent gameplay
Awesome video, thank you for making it! It’s really cool to shed light on this sort of thing and talk about the reasons *why* certain things are so enjoyable. And I totally agree that for a lot of people that make their own Chunk account, it’s the goal-oriented gameplay that hooks them and makes those small bits of progress so satisfying and rewarding. Keep it up!
I can''t play my main anymore because I never know what to do, having specific goals to complete a chunk definitely helps me staying engaged with the game. That and the theorycrafting is largely why I play a chunker. Great video, can't wait for more Jobe!
Glad to see you agree even as someone who doesn’t fear a crazy grind! Gl on your journeys king 🫡
totally i quit my main too
can you explain what you mean by theorycrafting? Ive seen that phrase used and I'm not sure I get it.
figuring things out fresh instead of following a guide, forging a new path on your own@@vonder4479
@@vonder4479 coming up with methods or plans. Like, "I need to get 50 crafting, but there's no way to start the skill until level 10 in this chunk. How can I get 50 crafting then? Hmm. Well, I could do random events and get lamp xp. I could also kill this strange creature nobody knew about in this area that drops a certain item which allows me to craft from level 5. But to kill that creature I need 30 ranged. How can I get 30 ranged?" and so on, and so on
My favorite things about watching are the fun facts, remembering weird ways to do stuff and the true excitement in the voices after a drop that really helps the account.
I think the main reason why One Chunk accounts (and, by extension, region-locked accounts) are a really fun concept to both watch and play as, is the same reason why stories about 'Robinsons' - characers who are stranded on a desolate island - are so popular in literature.
They are essentially the same concept. You have a character confined to a limited space, being all alone, armed with only a limited amount of resources and objects. The only way for the character to survive/get out of the area is to explore and utilize every single available resource and peronal skill they can.
For this exact reason, Jules Verne's Mysterious Island was my favorite book growing up. It's an engaging case-study of how five resourceful scientists can use their wit and skill to turn a desolate and hostile island into their own modernized settlement out of nothing. Now that I think about it, One Chunk and Region-locked accounts (particularly, Settled's Morytania-only series) engaged me in a similar manner.
I think one of the main factors that makes these videos so captivating is how even the tinyest of regional findings and details - overlooked by most players - can have enormous effects on a character's future and destiny. A discovery as simple as a Mithril Scimitar or a Nasturtium seed can become a pivotal game-changer, providing sentimental value into the character's journey and the overall storyline.
Great video, the topic of why these account types and videos became so appealing to the OSRS community is certainly worthy of discussion.
Mmmmm do you remember the book "Hatchet". We grew up craving the next survival story. "Pirate island" oh man, I need another good book!
I think a simple way to put this would be "people love one chunk for the same reason they love leagues". It gives you a guided purpose and makes you think about your limitations rather than your possibilities.
also why leagues 4 was better than leagues 3. and wh, leagues 4 early days was better than towards the end
The real grind is the friends we made along the way
Mupkip famous quote my favorite youtuber for osrs
I specifically had a conversation in my own head while watching your chunk man yanille video about how cool it was to be able to rediscover runescape -- a game I've played for over 20 years -- all over again, vicariously through you.
One chunk really helped me get back into runescape, I quit playing quite a few years ago because, like you said, everything was 'solved'. If I wanted to do anything there were a dozen different guides going over theories for the optimal way to do it, I got bored of being efficient, and I couldn't stop myself from trying to achieve the greatest efficiency, killing the game for me. But I saw Slaybrother and Limpwurt do onechunk and I realized that it was exactly what I was looking for.
One chunk, for me, is a way of playing the game where I can still try to maximize my efficiency, something I can't help but do, but with so many restrictions it doesn't get boring. Every new chunk brings new possibilities, every new level unlocks new worlds of stuff to try. The game changes so dramatically from the smallest things. After 50 hours of trying I was able to complete a beginner clue, and I got a black pickaxe, and I have never been happier to see a black pickaxe in my life, suddenly mining was an option, and at a better rate than I would've been able to get in half a dozen chunks at least. Getting a steel battleaxe after kicking stuff to death was just pure joy. It just brought life into the game and gave me easy, clearly defined goals, and goals that I HAD to do to progress, I couldn't just go to the G.E and buy it or skip it in some way.
Watching your videos showed me the climbing rocks, which in turn really helped my clue scroll completions and just traveling around that area!
Nice video, but I feel like the fun of Onechunks is the 'pathing' discovery. Watching you outline how you got to the final agility boss was awesome. And seeing Sir Lumbington make a path/goal to reach KQ. If you look at Happerys UIM take on Onechunk, it may be my favorite OneChunk because he has choices in 'rolling' to create a v specific, creative, and weird path
to be super clear, youre 100% right. as a viewer, i barely care about the grind. ive jokingly said "all one chunks should be allowed to bot". because really i dont care about the grind, i want to see the creative methods people have to play/solve a chunk (and faster content)
Outlining goals/pathing is definitely a fun part of the experience. Like I said, some players love planning a path, Happery is a great example of making that super entertaining!
Good video but im ready for more chunk progression
It’s coming 💪
I wouldn't have gotten into RuneScape if not for the simplicity of chunking. As someone who only experienced the game before through vague childhood memories from the dark age of evil chickens and later Settled's videos, the vast world of Gielinor seemed far too intimidating to get a real foothold. When I can confine that to a 64x64 tile area, it suddenly becomes *much* more reasonable to jump in and learn how the game works again in a controlled environment. Just in time for Leagues to throw me directly into the thick of everything.
Me:Mom can we get idyl?
Mom:we have idyl at home!
Idyl at home....
This video was beautiful and although i'm new to the RUclips side I have been watching chunk accounts since Limpwurts' first videos. Lots of love to the community
Just shared your first video the other day, good luck on the journey and welcome!
Such an amazing video man! Really well made, with a really good message to it.
A lot of what you described is why I love playing uim. I was once one of those people who said I would never torture myself by playing one, but I started one thinking it wouldn't last long and it's actually a really interesting way of playing the game with the massive limitiation of not having a bank. You have to approach things differently and learn a lot about the game you would never have even as a normal ironman. Now I've been playing it for 2 years and it's my main account, I think I'll try a chunk account next time I want to start a new account.
Nice video essay! You may be the very best creator showing that exploration part. You’ve absolutely nailed the vibes of wonder, puzzles and mystery that mmos historically brought, and you’ve done a great job contextualizing it in the “now”. And you’re very funny which helps. Wonderful stuff!
Wonderful video. Your analyses are always something to look forward to. Also really appreciate the Soure Chunk shout-out.
Great analysis, Josh! Production quality is on point. It’s fun watching you carve your own path as a creator.
Agreed ❤ Love all the adventure, the challenges and out of the box thinking when doing my own chunkman. Grinds are part of it, but thats with all of osrs. Big challenge is to achieve things nobody did, or skill on a way nobody did. Love your series because of that too ❤
Just started a fun chunk related account a couple weeks ago and this video is very nice to see. I have been recording and do plan to eventually make content from the account and this video is a great reminder of why im doing it, thank you.
The only problem with One Chuck series I've noticed is that a lot of creators start them but fizzle out after only a handleful of videos.
Tremendous video! The Chunk community has always been extremely positive and helpful to one another! Just from reading RUclips comments alone you can see that there is overwhelming positivity surrounding this game mode!
this is an amazing video! i'd been wanting to start a onechunk for a while now anyways but i finally got around to making that character thanks to this.
I watch you’re onechunks because they’re fun, informative and just a chill vibe to relax to!
"Just be prepared to grind along the way" is such a great signoff, a meaningful little one-sentence summary. Loved the video!
Well said
The boom of challenge videos on RUclips further proves the point, people love seeing the games they love played in a way that keeps it fresh and interesting
For example the RUclips channels Joov and Mittensquad play the Bethesda games in creative ways like not leaving a region forcing them to find any possible advantage no matter how small or forgotten by the player base
While it’s not chunkman or anything close, Leagues has been a nice middle ground of having to get creative while also being able to tick all those boxes with a less hefty toll on the grind. I can also say that, thanks to Lumbington and ChunkYanille, I can tell that quite a few people have found your videos and used them to help their limited time to help make their grinds efficient, or at least myself.
I am also experiencing the wonder again thanks to videos like yours that makes me go back and rediscover these the game that I’ve not touched in years, and now I’m having more fun with RuneScape (even without leagues) than I think I ever did as a kid as I see new content that people say is grossly inefficient but completely fun to check out
This video essay was lit ! Great video mate, indeed you are right, it's not the grind, it's bigger than us, it's all about pushing each others above and beyond and this with different starts, different journeys.
I can only talk for myself, when I started my channel it was not about the grind, the exp per hour or some kind of artificial pleasure of a subcount. it's about multiple reasons, here's mines and maybe they will reasonate to other members who been here for a long time.
- Everything I do is streamed, why ? Well Streaming isn't about editing and I hate Editing, I want to do something I like and it will show in the future of the list. And with this "rule", I can show the entire journey without having to make those who want to watch wait for an episode that may not give what they want, even if I take long pauses. If I do something wrong or correct, the watcher of this serie will be capable to see it and judge it, even tell me that "there's something better" in my restricted chunk-based territory.
- Theory crafting, truthfully I love it, the number of document and time I took on plannification is longer than the time I took streaming, I even stoped because I had to think about my account again and again, because I entered a conundrum "Should I continue streaming wildly or should I plan more what I'm doing so I don't feel more and more lost each days I stream". Yes ! When I stream, I'm doing it on a daily basis and take time for myself for one-two days, like a job. People could discover it as madness, I see it as a form of dedication.
- I wanted something unique, no chunk rolling hype, no editing, no one chunk and then the map get bigger and bigger, nope, I wanted a journey based on Gielinor's Guilds, minigames, bosses and raids, but restricted inside the chunk format creating not just a chunkman, but something wild in my own perception, something that won't make me 'content clostrophobe', but still take a long time and push me to do some wild things, like fishing trawling my magic staff, or getting a high level in construction just to get my brown appron for the crafting guild.
- Community, com- mu- ni- ty, I cannot stress enough that I do that because I want to talk with the community, I want the backsit gamers to go in my DMs and tell me how to grind something; I want people to influence that account's journey, because when I stream, I don't want it to be just mine, but theirs as the "watcher", I want someone to feel that "Hey, I influenced that random guy who's job is 'influencer"" x) Being part of the chunkman community, the most wholesome community on runescape, the most respectful and the most encouraging I experienced, not to be proud of being inside of it and smug, but to reinforce it as something wholesome, throwing another helping hand into the crowd of humble gamers.
- Living a childhood dream, ok ok, it's maybe cringe, but the truth is when I was young (about 09-11), I played right before the EoC, when summoning was new and I felt lost and wandering and I had this dream of finishing it, finishing the game and I believed at that time that having a skill cape was the best, but now it's the [Mythical max cape], I just want it, but with that twist, making it even harder.
Yep~ I think the chunkman community isn't about being proud or "the grind", it's being part of a world of mystery, of unknown puzzles and being part of a group who help each others solving each other's puzzles, one chunk at a time.
The way you put it, onechunk man is like the community around speedrunning a thoroughly broken game (or any sufficiently advanced game). You get people figuring out new ways to bypass what the devs wanted to be mandatory, new ways in which someone extremely dedicated can save a miniscule amount of time, and the thousands of hours needed to commit that to muscle memory, just so someone can play less of a game that they love and be celebrated for it. I say this with all the love for the speedrunning community (horrible celeste speedrunner here), and I think that makes things easier to digest for someone outside the community
Either way, thanks for this, it was a great way to put into words how I felt about one chunk accounts, and cemented in my brain that i HAVE to make my chunkwoman account
While I have not played RuneScape in a very long time, this video touches directly on why I play games the way I do. Weird, highly restricted challenge runs make games feel so alive to me, they make me appreciate aspects of the game I never would have before. Like you said, they capture the first time experience over and over again like catching lightning in a bottle.
An absolutely wonderful video.
Old School has many out-of-the-way pieces that most people miss, and I love Chunk series(es?) because they put them in the spotlight. Other games don’t have this, or not to the level Old School does. This, plus the dedication just makes them fun to watch. Even on my main I’ll sometimes to do suboptimal things like Salarin the Twisted because it’s content that basically is never touched now.
Having played a BArbarian Village chunkman, the greatest part was truly the amount of weird discoveries and even methods of getting simple stuff like any armor that wasn't a helmet! From ending up adding to the wiki of the stronghold of security to just the odd fact that the level 1 rats drop bones, it was a weird journey in the most fun kind of way. The grinds were just an addition indeed :)
Absolutely fantastic video. I've become so enamored over the last 6 months with the depth of Runescape's mechanics even down to the niche, ridiculous things (Your yanille pickpocket strat/Settled pickpockets at the start of Tileman are great examples)
Challenges of all types across all games force both players and viewers to think differently about a sandbox and it creates these weird moments of problem solving, thinking together like a team - But no game does it better than Runescape. It's almost as if the game was built with the intention of sparking so many ways to "play it wrong"
Yeah I agree with all these points. Runescape has no inherent direction by default. IMO it's a hard game to watch on RUclips because of that, and why I don't watch normal Runescape content.
But with one-chunk series, I can understand as a viewer exactly what needs to be accomplished, see the gravity of chunk picking, and share in the joy of every individual upgrade (new gear, training methods, etc.) like back when I first played the game. Every new chunk rolled is a novel and interesting adventure.
Great video man, you seriously get noticeably better with each video you make. Excited to see your channel blow up soon. Good job, brother.
Fantastic video! Excited to see what's next for your acc
I thought no one could look any more strange than Maynard Keeton with a mullet. You did it! YAY!
The existence of Chunk picker has explained so much of what I considered to be an incredibly difficult and tedious set of rules to limit oneself to. I thought you had to find all your tasks manually and wow does this sound infinitely more appealing than it did before.
Excellent Video. I'm probably going to start a chunk account side this sounds really fun and cool. I love watching chunk accounts, but this convinced me why I think I'd enjoy it!
I loved this format. More please. This is my favorite type of RS content.
You should sue the Falador barber for that haircut
Real
i swear Genz Z saw millenials and gen Xers make fun of shitty 80ies fashion and haircuts and thought "oh that's hot"
Such a well constructed video mate and I know you said you this wasn't to 'sell' us on the idea of chunkman but holyyy I am sold! Imma start looking up to chunks where I wanna make home! Awesome video bud and keep up the content
Enjoy! Let me know where you end up
@@JoshIsnt Ended up choosing Varrock Palace for the nostalgia! I did add the GE chunk next to it though as I didn't want to play the gamemode without a bank, I ain't no UIM ;)
@@mattyholmes1900 I’m a big fan of starting with two chunks that make the combination of them much more interesting! If you need a bank, I say don’t hesitate to start with GE
the smaller scope of goals is exactly why tileman brought me back to osrs. Playing UIM tileman made it so that I only had to focus on exactly what I can keep in my inventory and what I can access with my tiles. Even though I started the tileman account as a joke, those limited goals made it so much easier and fun, and my most amount of hours on any account was my tileman account by far
Great video that sums up the game mode perfectly, looking forward to all the new peeps who'll start their journey thanks to it! 😄
One must imagine one-chunkman happy.
I hope your Yanille and Lumbridge accounts get an update soon! My fav snowflake accounts
Soon 🐸
One-chunk accounts have the exact same appeal to me as regular ironman (an especially leagues) does: Theorycrafting!
Finding obscure ways to train your stats, discovering new things in the game, and having to do it all yourself is so rewarding. The grind is the filler episode before the lore dump which is the theorycrafting for the next part of your journey. I have spent way too many hours pouring over the wiki; hell, I even have shortcut keywords and a streamdeck full of links to get me to various pages on the wiki I look at a lot.
I'll be honest, thanks to finding this video out of nowhere in my recommended videos, I have gained an interest in the whole Onechunk thing and kinda wanna give it a whirl, myself! Also I found your content which I had been watching since yesterday and yeah. Subscribed :)
I really want to do a Taverley Chunk account. It's probably THE FIRST place every player goes to once they become a member so they can either complete Druidic Ritual or cross White Wolf Mountain to explore the rest of the western half of Runescape.
Opening those gates to the west of Falador for the first time was an almost ethereal experience back in the day.
Please do make the starting chunk video, it would be great to hear your opinions on that!
Ah, so OneChunk is all about the friends we made along the way.
Great vid. Definitely hit the nail on the head on why these are so enjoyable, even as a spectator. I'm curious why you didn't compose your own music for this one?
Pro Tip: If you want to be a game developer get a degree in computer science and take game making classes on the side
No, get a degree in computer science and work on a game in your spare time. Don't need to waste money on classes.
Amateur tip: drop out of a degree in English literature and spend your time doodling RPG plot ideas while working in a gift card shop. Just sayin'
Or go to school for game designs an pay attention and maybe do what they teach you while experimenting on the side who knows
@@user-eb6gr1ux6w Are you not paying attention to all of the layoffs in the video game industry? I bet all of them said it would never happen to them.
Pro tip just make a game and you are now a dev.
What an incredible video, Josh! Very informative, made me dust off that one time I opened the Chunk Picker. It's my time to shine, with a brand new chunk adventure... after Leagues is over.
I agree with the efficiency opinion.
I “sometimes” like to be efficient, but I play so inefficiently that I love it. Just kinda logging on and doing something that I enjoy is what I love about RuneScape, and it’s always progresss in my mind.
this is the most wholesome OSRS video I've ever seen, and you really managed to keep it interesting the whole way through! Love your work!
I think this really extends to more than just one chunk and goes into the snowflake accounts in general. My friends and I did a group ironman account where we were randomly selected a region each on a wheel, and we had to communicate and share resources so we could all complete our grinds to move on to the next one. It was such a great account and we finished it with everyone getting quest capes. Anyways, loved the video.
Absolutely loved this video! Really summed up why the One Chunk community is so unique and wonderful! Great work!
Loved this content man! Very cool and i appreciate your insight!!
Woah here I am just throwing on a video about runescape in the background that I thought I would immediately forget about without taking in any meaningful information, and now 5 minutes in and I already learn that the creator of Foxyland has a mullet.
Top 10 unusual chunks sounds like great content. Really enjoyed this vid!
I've just come back for leagues after a break, and I've been considering making an ironman. This video has made me feel so excited to explore the game and try "inefficient" methods rather than doing what the wiki tells me is best.
I'd love to see the starting chunk video you suggested
Awesome vid man, have so little time to play games these days and haven't actually played OSRS for a couple of years, but this really hits home to everything I loved the game for back in the day, and when I started out in Old School. Reallly tempted to create an account off the back of this :)
I'd absolutely love to see your thoughts on different chunk starting areas! I've been wanting to start one and that might be just what I need to get started.
great video homie, nostalgia feelings were real af with this one
I’ve heard Irchonkyman is one of the most well liked people in the one chunk cc and he approves of this video
Great video Josh, this one really knocked it out of the park!
Fun Yanille facts is one of my favorite parts of the series.
you say you weren't trying to "sell" one chunk mode to us, but you sure did a good job of it to me. I came back to OSRS after 10 years of not touching it after RS3 happened, and even now I barely play my main because there's too much to do! I'm spoiled for choice, but that same choice paralyzes me and with my limited time and energy thanks to work and wanting to spend time with my family/friends it makes it seem not even worth it. But the idea of bringing back that magic I felt the first time playing Runescape back in 6th grade when I first progressed from a bronze long sword to a Steel war hammer? and having defined goals that, while they may take a long time, are something I'd know I'd have to complete and have to find a way to complete them without any help? Definitely has made me heavily consider starting a (slightly less extreme) one chunk account and see if it can hold my attention for longer than my main does.
Excellent essay, m8. Loved it
Personally, I think a one-chunk account starting in Zanaris would be pretty interesting, mostly because the fairy rings would cause the account to diverge to so many different places across the map. Every chunk roll could take the account in a completely different direction.
This perfectly explains why i haven't played my main for like 3 years, but get excited every time I have time to play my chunk account
Excited to see more from your series!
Take a drink everytime josh says it isnt about grinding.
The point of any challenge run isn't to grind - it's to see the limitations of the challenge. That's true for any game, and why challenge runs are so fun to watch. I see a OSRS challenge account the same as say a Dark Souls one - to see what a run could feasibly accomplish. That may entail lots of trial and error, or lots of grinding, but ultimately the fun is to see the run succeed in ways we didn't expect.
what an awesome video. Makes me wanna start an one chunk immediately.
To me, the main appeal of watching area restricted accounts is simple. When I play games, I like to think to myself "I love this town/area. I wish I could live here and grow an account here ." But I can't because much faster exp and efficiency lies elsewhere. Yet, the existence of very low level enemies in midgame areas teases a normal player into thinking, "Could i have come here first instead of Lumbridge?"
With area restricted accounts, you can. It enables you to live in a certain area and appreciate it, reviving an obsolete area from the dead.
My only problem with using chunks is that they cut-off things that don't make sense sometimes. Like you might want to grow an account in a certain town, but a couple buildings are cut off by the chunk border. I feel like there should be a plugin where instead of chunks, the game is divided into committee-decided small regions. Not a huge deal though.
the most anticipated video of the season
King Condor clothing, Idyl video style, and a bit of Limpwurt. This is an awesome vid lol.
2:49 I'm sure it was incidental, but you triggered flashbacks by using the South Falador wall as your example chunk here. This chunk caused me A LOT of grinding....
As a long time MMORPG player, this video encapsulates my desire in MMO content exactly. This is exactly the reason why in almost any game i play, i am the "completionist" type player: clear goals, validating all content (new or old), and making you explore every little part of its world. I mostly play WoW and OSRS, and when i explore a piece of content in a long forgotten corner of the game, i always think to myself: "I wonder what it would have been like when this thing was relevant."
Also want to say: great video! I really enjoy listening to pationate gamers talk about games, specifically MMO's, so would definitly like to see more of this in the future! :)
As a wow player who’s still stumbling across things I’ve never seen in Classic, I feel the same way
I love unique osrs accounts chunk accs being one of them, I fully agree with you also excited for next yanille ep
I'm only in my infancy of one chunking, so I can't really talk about it specifically, but what you're saying about community and playing alone together resonates a lot with me. I've played a lot of classic wow, but the most "MMO" i've ever felt was last year when a bunch of people came together to play a community "hardcore ironman" (to borrow a osrs term) event. Hundreds of hours, never trading, barely grouping (only for a handful of dungeons), and still never felt alone.
40 levels of pickpocketing men done, now 92 levels of mining ahead of me. I suppose alone, but not really
great video by the way!
For the longest time i've been wating to play one chunk. now it's settled, im gonna start it 1st of 2024. This video was great and absolutely complete. Keep this up bro!
I have never seen any of these one chunk accounts. This channel is the first for me. Ive seen settled's morytania only and tilemans series, but never a one chunck challenge and its got me interested.
I love the effort youve put nto this video but I cant lie, I am disappointed it isnt just a regular progress update
Limpwurt doing bagged plants to 99 construction without a saw is definitely an unusual mechanic.
This video articulates one chunk in a way I genuinely never thought about. For me one chunk always felt like the natural progression of area locked ironmen, but this really says why its a popular gamemode. Tbh this and snowflake ironman have a major thing in common though and that is the idea of making your own fun. In my opinion that is my favorite part of oldschool runescape.
Me personally I used to avidly pet hunt because it was a natural progression of the shiny hunting I did in pokemon and the mount hunting I did in WoW. Nowadays I have transitioned into a collector. I am only a 150m away from being able to buy a tbow but keep finding myself obsessing over making new collection stacks. I genuinely get more enjoyment out of accruing items than I do progressing my account. Like for instance I did the christmas event 2 days before it was being removed, realized the snowballs stack infinitely and proceeded to stay up for the next 2 days straight collecting snowballs (most of that time was spent playing gta V while remote accessing my computer) and amassed 127k snowballs. While I have been watching this video I have been buying shantay passes, I've collected 200k just in that time. For me currently the thing that is the most fun in the world is just collecting huge stacks of useless items. I love opening my collection page and just looking at all the white stacks of items and especially love working towards green stacks. Like I feel more motivated to go make money for my collecting than I do for end game gear upgrades.
This has definitely convinced me to start a one chunker.
Very nice vid :) I love onechung due to its creativity that u never see in main game.
such a smart video! I've also been thinking about how content creators basically use Runescape as their own game development platform. You get characters, combat systems, items etc. then instead of following the regular rules of the game there is a set they've defined. Like you could play tic-tac-toe by dropping items or people gambling with the flower color thing
I’ve always had this same thought. There are a few games that hand the tools of game design to the players in a novel way and RuneScape is absolutely one of those games!
Limpwurt is the best one chunk, but your yanille series is my second favorite and i hope you continue it
Loved the video, I dont play chunkman but ever since I created my 1def ironman I just cant even log back on my normal acc! Makes the game feels like an actual game and everything feels so much better.
Im curious what's the name of the font used at 32:34? I know it shows up in some osrs cutscenes but I cant seem to find it online.
You sir, are crazy
Thank you for providing us entertainment and keeping on improving
For me to set up a one chunk account. What are some of the plugins I need to download?
Goals makes a huge difference for ironmen accounts, there can be serious fun working towards some major goal that is completely different from playing a main account.
While not OSRS, I made an Iron on Rs3 and it was one of the most refreshing and enjoyable things to me since I basically had quit OSRS because I was playing other games (FFXIV) and wasn't enjoying it (I resubbed and am once again making real progress). Call Rs3 a shitfest all you want (it is) playing an Iron was an absolute blast of a time and I made progress much faster than I would ironscaping on Old School to the point I actually maxed a skill for the second time and third time. It felt good to progress and have a goal to work towards.
Much the same reasons I enjoy my Slayer Drop Only account as well. Restricted in it's own way and very entertaining.
