Actually when you take a look at each song they are pretty damn complex, the song Harmony has 2 seperate melodies Runescape music is the best game music ever made
Nobody will ever experience what we did. When the internet was new and none of us understood the scope of the world. We logged in and for the first time could not only play a MMO for the first time, but do so without countless other people. It was such a new and fresh experience back then. We found the magic in the world that most of us can’t find now. Each red dot on the mini map was the possibility of treasure. You had no idea what was around the next corner. Max level was a dream, even standing around was fun because the world was so magical. R.I.P childhood.
i used to HATE the G.E because i loved trading to other players. bargaining. you know, like how a fantasy medievil world would be?? not a fuckin NY stock exchange... also external chats totally killed the IG chats but that goes for every game now 😥
@@mongrel_97 Too true matey. GE was a bad thing for the game. The expediation of such things is for real life, not for a game which is meant to propogate fun and interactivity with other people
There's some truth to that. Our parents' generation didn't grow up with the internet, and the internet nowadays (not to mention the way we access it) is a VERY different beast from what it was twenty years ago. I think there was more of an element of discovery that's harder to find nowadays with everything being collated into a handful of huge, centralized platforms. Of course there are still plenty of smaller little corners of the web out there if you know where to look, but it definitely feels like we have to put a lot more work into finding them nowadays. This part may just be childhood nostalgia talking, but it seemed so *easy* back then to stumble across cool random shit like Runescape without it needing to be fed to you by some social media platform's algorithm.
It’s 3pm. School just finished. You rush to your computer and log into RuneScape. You’re in lumbridge making your way to varrock eating shrimp to avoid being killed by the dark wizards. You make it to the bank and everyone around is spamming “b sale.” Life is good.
Too fast, I was 13 now I'm 31. Still play though but to sit down and grind is no longer like it was. Use to do 3 days in a row, lucky to do 3 hours now. Life.
Newbie Melody is like a punch in the stomach. I'm almost 30 now and these tracks bring me to a golden era I'm not capable of properly put into words. This was the best game of its time.
@@Dubzug True. I was going to mention I'm almost 30 as well, and didn't even realize that most people are probably around 30. Our generation really grew up with RuneScape. Though it'd be nice to have a large influx of newcomers migrating to the game, it's mostly us populating OSRS. The music has a way of bringing me back to the game. I get an itch to listen to some of the songs, then the songs make me nostalgic, and then I end up getting a month of membership lol.
Same, currently 29, will be 30 soon. There was a time when I wished I could live in this world forever but sadly we all must grow up, everyone gets older, ourselves and other ppl always eventually stop playing, graphics improve to completely unfamiliar levels along with updates until you get an entirely new game but with the same name as the old one. It'll never be the same again. I even miss the nostalgia of being naive and not knowing about the most efficient way of leveling of making money. At the time everything was new and even when online guides started popping out I was okay with that. I wish I had my own private server. I'd create bots and invite my friends to play. RS is just so greedy. I'm not going to pay for the same old content and play the same thing over and over again. I'll end my rant, I could go on forever honestly... They need to just sell us our own full versions of the game to host our own online servers. That'd be a lot of fun. We could set our own rules, download our own mods, etc. I hate that I can't love the new game. Anyways... If I don't stop now I'll keep writing. XD
I’m the same way, my middle self couldn’t handle how awesome the game was when I was introduced to it, such a timeless game and ost. 30 here funny enough lol
My big brother showed me RuneScape when I was 11. I’ve played off and on since then. I am 23 now and my brother passed away 2 years ago. This game and soundtrack have a special place in my heart. Brings back so many memories ❤️
Damn every time I listen to this it really does bring me back to ten year old me. Nothing can compare back to 2005 hanging out with friends then coming home and logging onto Runescape and MSN. Armour or weapon stats didn't matter to me as long as it looked cool or was expensive. Playing for fun and the experience not caring about efficiency, literally walking everywhere rather than teleing. I remember being so happy getting my first full Rune set, buying it on World 1 at Varrock East bank. Another milestone was my parents finally caving in and getting me a month of membership, walking through the gate for the first time north of Fally into members lands.
the best thing is you HAD to walk everywhere. If you wanna tele you gotta level up your magic and buy runes and then still only tele to a few places. Now they have those stupid lodestones / fast travel everywhere
My best friend on the game, pmed me that he found out this amazing place to make money, we met at varrok east bank, we home teleported to lummy, walked to portsarim, went to karamja, got to the house portal, went south and he told me lets kill these, they drop 10k each kill, i didnt find it suspicious, he was my friend and they were low lvl, i attacked one and so did he, in mere second i saw the poison, my heart stopped, i had food, i did not have a teleport or run energy . I started walking towards the ship, i spent weeks making bowstring, cutting trees, mining pure ess, mining iron ore. All the time and memories started rushing through my head, i started crying. I kept walking. He kept following me and saying hes sorry but he needs money. Thinking about it now, idk why i didnt log off, i just started walking and crying. I died soon after but i promised myself i wouldnt trust anyone, ever. I was 13 when this happened, now im 26.
Was the Lumbridge home teleport implemented at that time? Same thing happened to me. The prick kept trading with me to give me antipoison, but kept declining the trade in an attempt to stall. I logged out, moved worlds, home tele'd to Lumbridge, and banked my stuff.
I like how a lot of people in the comments have warm sentimental & nostalgic feelings towards this music, while in essence it is basic MIDI sounds. Another proof that music doesn't have to be expensive or extremely complicated. I felt a similar experience with a pretty simple punksong I knew from my childhood (out of a game soundtrack as well) recently. It conveys a message, an image, a visualisation, memories, nostalgia, lots of different feelings, ... IT'S ART
Nice description! But just a heads up, there's no such thing as "MIDI sounds'. MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface - essentially it's the connection that allows musical instruments and computers to communicate. That's a rough explanation, but I think it does the trick. You're right though, we hold things related to experiences we've loved in the past dearly in our hearts :)
was it tony hawk? thps3 essentially got me to where i am today with my interest in music and a certain country just based off of one song from the game
@@MrSnakebite7 no offense but you're not very smart it's for the mobile users LIKE HE LITERALLY SAID since they can't click the times in the description but they can click them in the comment
RuneScape is that childhood friend that you grew up with, and no matter how much time has passed, you two can pick right up from where you left off. I'm not crying, you are
I turn 25 in a couple months, crazy to think I’ve been playing this game for over 3/4 of my life. This soundtrack is one of the most nostalgic things i can think of
Oh boy! You have no idea how I appreciate the description! I always wondered if we can buy these sounds to listen to while driving or doing the house work. I'm an old lady, retired and with to much time to kill. Then I'd rather kill dragons and monsters, make potions and harvesting my crops 😂 so it's my favorite game. The music get inside my head and never leaves. Besides, I started playing after 10 years I left and so I noticed the changes. I missed a lot listening to everything you posted. Thank you. 💖
16:18 when you were 12 years old, 300K was everything you've got and just entered wilderness for the first time. Exploring for half an hour already and you've encountered a player who attacks you for no reason and one shots you. Next thing you're poor & in front of Lumbridge castle. Simpler days.
I never understood how people could afford stuff like that back in the day. 95% of the players was just 8-14 year olds vibing in the world fishing lobsters and selling cowhides lmao
@@cowsaysboo me either, I remember one of my jobs was to trade a guy power mining iron and I thought it was such a waste for that guy to throw away all that iron
Love to u all, we are a great generation. Build upon the good old rs days, remember embrace the good old days and go fur wards. But Dont lose touch with the child in you. That child like awe, wonder and enthusiasm can still be accessed, its not gone. We still all have "god", "love", "ego less mind“ whatever you want to call it within us. A mind without judgment and labeling, that mind that logged in for the first time so many years ago. Be conscious about it, feel your senses when listening to osrs music and enjoy the moment fully, Peace y'all ✌️
Beautifully said, thank you. A great reminder that these feelings are inside us. And we can access them anytime. That we can feel them in day to day life. That we can feel this same awe, wonder, and ethusiasm we felt for Runescape, in our day to day life. Life itself can be full of this feeling. Thank you for sharing, much love to you.
Man I wish could tattoo your comment. Shit has been getting wild in the last few years, some of us have been terrified by this weird journey called growing up, but we still strive forwards somehow. The adventure of life is still far from over for folks our age :))) Greetings and best wishes from a 24 yo chilean my friend!
@@elijah1110 WTF ME TOO!! JEEEZ!! I remember playing this song in music class in middle school, we had to compose a small melody on chimes and me and my friend picked this one because it was so easy to learn. We got applauded by the whole class and teacher!
I quit in 2012 like many others (cause EOC) but came back to get closure cause I hadn't gotten any skills to 99 yet, so I got my 99 strength cape in 2016, It was great. Now I can say I've achieved a 99 on my favorite childhood game. Peace ✌️
@@TheMCricket it completely changed the combat of the game from a point a click style to a more modern style which alot of people didn't like. Plus early EOC was kinda ass.
I don’t think the developers realize how close some of us hold this game to our heart. Genuinely one of the only games that’s soundtrack can get me emotional.
It is August 10, 2020. Last night, I decided to play Runescape for the first time. I'm actually enjoying it. I wish I grew up in the golden age of Runescape, though.
This game was my first memory of using my femininity to get a guy to simp and help me complete quests. I was 7 when I unlocked this power and I’m an adult now. Thank you RuneScape, sorry men
My brother and I used to return from school and I'd watch him play Runescape for hours together. We'd always go to the giant dungeon by GE in Varrock and farm Limpwert Root and sell it in GE for buying new armor. I really miss those days.
I started crying at 32:13 I hummed that song constantly for about half my life. I'd hug my cat and sing about her with those notes. Same with 38:15. I miss her. She was a big kitty, strong too, and a beautiful tortishell shorthair with a white belly and paws. Her name was Camie May Sue. Edit: honestly goes for half this soundtrack.
god this comment hit me. i literally used to hum runescape songs to my cat too. i still have my cat but he's old and man time really flies im gonna cry
Gosh 1:25:16 bringing back memories of completing the Underground Pass quest. What an immense amount of time to make it through that whole west ardy saga!
I turn 27 next week. Makes me feel old sometimes. You know how it is, every year just seems to go by faster and faster. But these songs take me way back to a simpler time. Everything is simple when you're a child. It's the kind of thing that reminds me to try my hardest not to burden my kids with the trials of real life and just let them have fun while nothing matters. Man, nostalgia is a powerful feeling
Sometimes I listen to this and feel emotional. Reminds me of times I had no worries in life and just chilled playing RuneScape all day with my mates, whom most of which I rarely see now, if at all.
Its funny to think back in the day I used to mute this most of the time and play my own tracks, its understandable as any type of music could get repetitive. However its only now do you realize what an amazing veriety of music the creators of rs made, really shows how much love they put in it and lets not forget all those quests and dialog. Damn I really wanna give this game another go. :') Would prefer a time machine if anyone has one tho. X)
I don't know if it is just nostalgia, but this game is CHARMING. Like, wow. I remember playing it when I was 7, not knowing what to do, but still having fun. I remember almost all of these songs beat for beat 13 years later.
1:03:23 For some reason, this one hit different. This is the sound you heard when you first entered the wilderness, is it not? It invokes such a menacing feeling despite being MIDI.
One of my fondest memories of this game was when i started playing it with a friend from middle school. At the time we didn't know much or had much but i will always remember the iron chainmail he gave me for my birthday. Though it wasn't much, at the time it meant the world to me. We are no longer in contact with each other having grown our separate ways, but this will remain a core memory in my life.
Sitting here with tears in my eyes thanks to newbie melody. Never been hit by such a wave of warm nostalgia in my life. Thanks to everyone that shared in this experience
i will add my voice to the overwhelming sentimental and nostalgic feelings when listening to these tracks. i havent heard the original sea shanty in 18 years and i whistled it tune for tune. even for simple midi tracks made on broken programming, its still amazing and i will remember it until i die
I think what made Runescape music so good was the variety. It almost felt as enjoyable to find new music in different areas as to level up, because you could go back and listen to those tracks over and over again later with the music feature showing all the music you'd 'discovered'.
That Runescape main theme song always puts me in a good mood. Reminds me of what I was about to get into. A digital world of low poly timeless adventure with other players.
I was about to write about how nostalgic this music is. How it reminds me of the old simple days. Everything was wonderful and new. Awe and mystery. How I learned so much from this game I used to play. I don't have to write that. It seems you guys already expressed this for me. I sure most of you guys played around the same time I used too and if so thank you and I love you all. The game was so fun and the experience was a staple experience in my life.
I started around 2005, I'm 30 now I'm currently listening to this as I fabricate stone countertops irl...the grind never stopped, im just onto new skills... I will play as long as it's around... runescape is the only game I've played consistently.. every other games novelty wore off eventually, not this game.. osrs and rs3 are my favorite games no doubt....thanks to the uploader for making my life just that much better😅😊
Ahh yeas, the Scape main track overflows me with nostalgia, memories of a simpler life. Also a few sad memories, I remember I once tried to log in and I just couldn't. I was typing in my password repeatedly to no avail, I thought for sure my account and been hacked and I never cried so hard in my life before. Turns out I just had my Caps Lock on lol
As we grow older we take a look back at what used to be, and think if it will ever be like that again. The beauty of childhood and how it becomes a memory in the deepest part of your brain. Let us never forget.... to all my fellow Runescapers i wish you all the best in life.
I'm 31 and only started playing RuneScape for the first time last night. I never experienced the game as a kid, but this music is an incredible journey. I love reading the comments from people who have the wonderful nostalgic feeling for this game. I get that feeling when I play and listen to Morrowind music, that was my childhood around the time you were all playing this! I wish I would have been there with RuneScape back then, but I am here now!
If, like me, you're an nostalgic gamer on your 20s reviving those magical memories of simplier and happier times through this music, let me tell you: I love you P.D: Man a vinyl edition for this would be a blessing. The magical nostalgic feeling would increase by x1000
Man this was the absolute best. I play osrs again and with the immense impact this game had on my life…man. I’m 31 with kids and my kids will play. They will get to experience the magic I did….yes. Oh yes….
This truly brought me back to a great time. I moved to a new neighborhood in 2006 when I was in 6th grade and ended up playing till about 2007. Was hard moving away from my old neighborhood (was only 15 minute drive away, but as a kid it feels your entire life is ripped away) I would rush home, run downstairs and connect with my friends. I did meet a girl from Florida whom I ended up texting and connected with which turned into developing emotions with over an 8 year period. We don't talk anymore but Runescape brings me to a happy time, wherever she is I hope she is doing okay.
17 years ago today I started my RuneScape journey. I may have taken breaks that have lasted from months to years from the game but never fully abandoned it. I am even as we speak grinding barrows in oldschool
While I was reading your comment, I was like, "Damn, 17 years?!" Then I did the math and realized I started playing 20 years ago...oof. Someone slow the clock down please.
It's funny looking back at my childhood hours spent playing this game, thinking I should have gone outside more or got more hobbies. But seeing how fondly I remember this music now and how happy it makes me from just the memories of how much fun I had playing this game, and these comments of how fondly everyone else remembers it here too.. Any regrets I had just vanished, and instead I'm just grateful I had the experience of loving this game growing up.
Bro I grew up in a small town in Australia. Back in early 2000s we had dial up and I was new to computers or even the internet. Tbh I didn't even know what and how the internet worked. Being 7 years old and getting on Runescape because I was behind in school and didn't have many friends either. My uncle was top 10 and even 2nd behind Zezima for a good while It wasn't until I moved to the city that i realised how big the game actually was and how many people played. I remember all the fuss about Zezima and to me he was just another guy but many were his fans.
Funny enough i'm here now at 25 just chilling on Minecraft having a smoke. It's bit quiet so thought I'd jam out some good old RS soundtracks and check out my OSRS accnt on my mobile phone for some nostalgia. Man I miss being a kid, not knowing how to pronounce or spell half of the in-game items or even player names lmao. Back when having rune and dragon, barrows etc was cool 😎
I spent more time outside because my parents restricted my computer usage. Trust me, I never even considered your pov.. I just wish I got more time on Runescape
i remember going to school not knowing what runescape was (couldn't afford a home PC) all my friends telling me to start up an account and they would provide me with full bronze (and me thinking that was the shit) thank god the teachers let me play this at school at recess and lunch or I would have missed out on one of the better parts of my childhood
Years of playing Runescape with my friends during Middle school/high school, even picking it up a few years ago. I just can't believe how ahead RS was during it's time, even it's OST :*)

was it tony hawk? thps3 essentially got me to where i am today with my interest in music and a certain country just based off of one song from the game
Being a grown ass man...this brings a tear to my eye. Long live the better days

Ty so much my g
A true hero
It's literally in the description though
@@MrSnakebite7 no offense but you're not very smart it's for the mobile users LIKE HE LITERALLY SAID since they can't click the times in the description but they can click them in the comment
Winston Yeow you legend
RuneScape is that childhood friend that you grew up with, and no matter how much time has passed, you two can pick right up from where you left off.
I'm not crying, you are
I turn 25 in a couple months, crazy to think I’ve been playing this game for over 3/4 of my life. This soundtrack is one of the most nostalgic things i can think of
25:48 thank me later
I thank you now haaha
Do doo doo doo doo doo doo doooo
Thabk you good sir
I haven’t clicked but I already know this is sea shanty 2 edit: Yup
The only song that matters
Oh boy! You have no idea how I appreciate the description! I always wondered if we can buy these sounds to listen to while driving or doing the house work. I'm an old lady, retired and with to much time to kill. Then I'd rather kill dragons and monsters, make potions and harvesting my crops 😂 so it's my favorite game. The music get inside my head and never leaves. Besides, I started playing after 10 years I left and so I noticed the changes. I missed a lot listening to everything you posted. Thank you. 💖
16:18 when you were 12 years old, 300K was everything you've got and just entered wilderness for the first time. Exploring for half an hour already and you've encountered a player who attacks you for no reason and one shots you. Next thing you're poor & in front of Lumbridge castle. Simpler days.
42:06 "Flash2:wave2:Selling d chain 20m"
Man i could picture it so vividly in my mind
I never understood how people could afford stuff like that back in the day. 95% of the players was just 8-14 year olds vibing in the world fishing lobsters and selling cowhides lmao
@@cowsaysboo Well personally I bought 10M gp with 50 euros lol
@@cowsaysboo The remaining 5% were adults who had brains, but by todays standards were actually bad at the game lol.
@@cowsaysboo me either, I remember one of my jobs was to trade a guy power mining iron and I thought it was such a waste for that guy to throw away all that iron
Haven't played Runescape for 10 years and Woke up with Harmony stuck in the head , these soundtracks are so incredible
That’s why I’m here, had a dream about rs last night
47:20 dat transition though
How it sounds in-game when you walk between those locations lol
Hard
Love to u all, we are a great generation. Build upon the good old rs days, remember embrace the good old days and go fur wards. But Dont lose touch with the child in you. That child like awe, wonder and enthusiasm can still be accessed, its not gone. We still all have "god", "love", "ego less mind“ whatever you want to call it within us. A mind without judgment and labeling, that mind that logged in for the first time so many years ago. Be conscious about it, feel your senses when listening to osrs music and enjoy the moment fully, Peace y'all ✌️
Fax
Beautifully said, thank you. A great reminder that these feelings are inside us. And we can access them anytime. That we can feel them in day to day life. That we can feel this same awe, wonder, and ethusiasm we felt for Runescape, in our day to day life. Life itself can be full of this feeling. Thank you for sharing, much love to you.
@@ArbitraryxIntentions thank you for opening your heart to receive the message. Good luck on your path my friend.

i started to play runescape since 2003, untill now 2020 my runescape accnt still alive...thanks jagex
I play since 2006, came back from a 3 year quit on last year's April, the game is still nice and I dont see myself playing any other thing

@@elijah1110 WTF ME TOO!! JEEEZ!!
I remember playing this song in music class in middle school, we had to compose a small melody on chimes and me and my friend picked this one because it was so easy to learn. We got applauded by the whole class and teacher!
My best memories in life come from this game. I'm glad it's a part of my life
jackblackv1000 isnt that sad? Bro live your life just to beat it! All best
I quit in 2012 like many others (cause EOC) but came back to get closure cause I hadn't gotten any skills to 99 yet, so I got my 99 strength cape in 2016, It was great. Now I can say I've achieved a 99 on my favorite childhood game. Peace ✌️

This reply needs more likes, underrated comment.
I feel the same way.@@IAmTheEg7
I don’t think the developers realize how close some of us hold this game to our heart. Genuinely one of the only games that’s soundtrack can get me emotional.
Listening to this makes me wanna be 7 again sitting at my parents' PC playing Runescape all day. Good old times... miss 'em!
38:40 is what you remember the most
Kind of reminds me of killing cows for some reason even though I’m pretty sure I’m remembering wrong 😂
Yes
Autumn Voyage makes me feel some type of way honestly. 10:16
Love every track though! ~ RUN ESCAPE
o wow... i've played the game for like 4 years without ever noticing this...
True! Really hypes you up. Like some medieval knight music, battle for honor or sth, among these motifs
8:06 i was waiting for this massive drop whole song, goosebumps all over my body, not dissapointed :sadge:
LMAO I feel it too buddy
It is August 10, 2020. Last night, I decided to play Runescape for the first time. I'm actually enjoying it. I wish I grew up in the golden age of Runescape, though.
Man it was the Best time i did play Way back in 2008 it was the Best 😭
ur 12-14 years too late
I remember playing the game when I was a child back in 2007 or 2008. Such good times!
@@kurdyyy6822 how am i late? people still play it, Jagex still updates it
It's absolutely nothing like it used to be in terms of the community. Can still be fun though for sure.
I loved this one 27:52. I had a favorite one, but I can't even remember how it went. I will know once I hear it.
I loved this one too. My fav is Arabian 2
Stop stealing my cakes
@@lechero4295 hahaha, HAHAHA, Al Kharid desert right? One of the baker stalls near the palace?
This game was my first memory of using my femininity to get a guy to simp and help me complete quests. I was 7 when I unlocked this power and I’m an adult now. Thank you RuneScape, sorry men
I'm a men and man this made me laugh! I love it! 😂 ahhh RuneScape was amazing! In every way!
Had my first bf in RS lol. He must have thought i was fake
i remember paying gp to somebody else to get my quests completed
We are happy to help
My brother and I used to return from school and I'd watch him play Runescape for hours together. We'd always go to the giant dungeon by GE in Varrock and farm Limpwert Root and sell it in GE for buying new armor. I really miss those days.
38:15 and scape main are my favorites
Such a great one.
If only i had known how big this game was in my childhood, i woulda played a whole lot more.
Sea Shanty 2 will always be a certified hood classic
I don't think Gower and the boys realise how much of an impact they had on our childhoods. They literally shaped us.
andrew and the gower brothers, absolute legends. literally the best
1:57:23 is my favourite.
15 years later.. still amazing and brings back so many memories
I started crying at 32:13 I hummed that song constantly for about half my life. I'd hug my cat and sing about her with those notes. Same with 38:15. I miss her. She was a big kitty, strong too, and a beautiful tortishell shorthair with a white belly and paws. Her name was Camie May Sue.
Edit: honestly goes for half this soundtrack.
I am sorry for your kitty :( I am sure she was happy to have you
god this comment hit me. i literally used to hum runescape songs to my cat too. i still have my cat but he's old and man time really flies im gonna cry
@@TheSonicSegaNerd My brother from another mother.
You pet your ol' boy for me.
It's healthy to cry.

Gosh 1:25:16 bringing back memories of completing the Underground Pass quest. What an immense amount of time to make it through that whole west ardy saga!
I turn 27 next week. Makes me feel old sometimes. You know how it is, every year just seems to go by faster and faster. But these songs take me way back to a simpler time. Everything is simple when you're a child. It's the kind of thing that reminds me to try my hardest not to burden my kids with the trials of real life and just let them have fun while nothing matters. Man, nostalgia is a powerful feeling
16:17 praise Flute Salad !mathboy7
¡Ay, caramba!
was searching this for a week :D
Tree when they ask if I listen to salsa music
Goes so harf
Hola senorita, you come here often?
That newbie melody took me back to my 12 year old self faster then the speed of light!
killing chickens and goblins
Sometimes I listen to this and feel emotional. Reminds me of times I had no worries in life and just chilled playing RuneScape all day with my mates, whom most of which I rarely see now, if at all.
Never thought a video game could be an important part of my life but in 2006 I decided to start playing this and here I am 14 years later...
How is "Book Of Spells" not the most played timestamp on this video? Easily a banger, even 20+ years later. 🔥🔥
How is Every song an aboslute banger?!
The memories 👌👌
27:53 Best fucking track in the entire game and it's like 10 minutes too short
When i was kid i loves these and now i am 30 years old and these mean even more for me. Why they dont have soundtracks like these more??
Look for music with the instruments used idk :)
Over 20 years later and this still hits some deep part of my soul...
This is my go-to soundtrack when I'm doing homework :)
Back in computer lab in Elementary school I got in trouble for playing this instead of the ‘learn to type games’ they had us do. Worth it.
54:30 so many hours spent here
Its funny to think back in the day I used to mute this most of the time and play my own tracks, its understandable as any type of music could get repetitive. However its only now do you realize what an amazing veriety of music the creators of rs made, really shows how much love they put in it and lets not forget all those quests and dialog. Damn I really wanna give this game another go. :') Would prefer a time machine if anyone has one tho. X)
Wow! Well said!
I don't know if it is just nostalgia, but this game is CHARMING. Like, wow. I remember playing it when I was 7, not knowing what to do, but still having fun.
I remember almost all of these songs beat for beat 13 years later.
Old School RuneScape now exists as it was in 2007!
1:03:23 For some reason, this one hit different. This is the sound you heard when you first entered the wilderness, is it not? It invokes such a menacing feeling despite being MIDI.
leaving this comment here so in a week, a month or years from now i can remember this amazing nostalgic music!!
One of my fondest memories of this game was when i started playing it with a friend from middle school. At the time we didn't know much or had much but i will always remember the iron chainmail he gave me for my birthday. Though it wasn't much, at the time it meant the world to me. We are no longer in contact with each other having grown our separate ways, but this will remain a core memory in my life.
Harmony will always be a banger of a track.
Sitting here with tears in my eyes thanks to newbie melody. Never been hit by such a wave of warm nostalgia in my life. Thanks to everyone that shared in this experience
i will add my voice to the overwhelming sentimental and nostalgic feelings when listening to these tracks. i havent heard the original sea shanty in 18 years and i whistled it tune for tune. even for simple midi tracks made on broken programming, its still amazing and i will remember it until i die
Same here bro, the comfort these tunes give me now that I'm a 24 yo dude making my way through life is priceless.
I listened to this and cried. This was my childhood. It's been a tremendous honor folks.

I think what made Runescape music so good was the variety. It almost felt as enjoyable to find new music in different areas as to level up, because you could go back and listen to those tracks over and over again later with the music feature showing all the music you'd 'discovered'.
That Runescape main theme song always puts me in a good mood. Reminds me of what I was about to get into. A digital world of low poly timeless adventure with other players.
So nostalgic. I love it. Absolutely great community to be a part of. Great people, gameplay, dopamine, graphics, and soundtrack
I was about to write about how nostalgic this music is. How it reminds me of the old simple days. Everything was wonderful and new. Awe and mystery. How I learned so much from this game I used to play. I don't have to write that. It seems you guys already expressed this for me. I sure most of you guys played around the same time I used too and if so thank you and I love you all. The game was so fun and the experience was a staple experience in my life.
I started around 2005, I'm 30 now I'm currently listening to this as I fabricate stone countertops irl...the grind never stopped, im just onto new skills... I will play as long as it's around... runescape is the only game I've played consistently.. every other games novelty wore off eventually, not this game.. osrs and rs3 are my favorite games no doubt....thanks to the uploader for making my life just that much better😅😊
Ahh yeas, the Scape main track overflows me with nostalgia, memories of a simpler life. Also a few sad memories, I remember I once tried to log in and I just couldn't. I was typing in my password repeatedly to no avail, I thought for sure my account and been hacked and I never cried so hard in my life before. Turns out I just had my Caps Lock on lol
😆😆😆 it's the worst feeling in the world
As we grow older we take a look back at what used to be, and think if it will ever be like that again. The beauty of childhood and how it becomes a memory in the deepest part of your brain. Let us never forget.... to all my fellow Runescapers i wish you all the best in life.
I'm 31 and only started playing RuneScape for the first time last night. I never experienced the game as a kid, but this music is an incredible journey. I love reading the comments from people who have the wonderful nostalgic feeling for this game. I get that feeling when I play and listen to Morrowind music, that was my childhood around the time you were all playing this! I wish I would have been there with RuneScape back then, but I am here now!
Leave you wannabe. This is for OG true runescapers. You are not welcome.

It's been over 17 years since I began playing this glorious game. I always love seeing how much it impacted people as it did me.
It's like being able to grieve an ex with people
@@programtracer7868dude that's exactly the feeling. you cn log into OSRS rn but... it's not *that runescape*
So glad i witnessed this compared to the tiktok kids nowadays. Thank you with the bottom of my heart Jagex
i played it in my childhood in like 06 till 2012 and loved it.
These tracks are so iconic.
nowadays im to lazy to grind in oldschool runescape
Man this was the absolute best. I play osrs again and with the immense impact this game had on my life…man. I’m 31 with kids and my kids will play. They will get to experience the magic I did….yes. Oh yes….
Playing RuneScape while listening to these almost shed a damn tear 🤣
I've ne'er encountered melodies of such exquisite grace, a genuine awe unfurls, and my frevent wish echoes for the creation of more.
Lets just come to an agreement that all these songs are bangers and will be written in the historybook
This truly brought me back to a great time. I moved to a new neighborhood in 2006 when I was in 6th grade and ended up playing till about 2007. Was hard moving away from my old neighborhood (was only 15 minute drive away, but as a kid it feels your entire life is ripped away) I would rush home, run downstairs and connect with my friends. I did meet a girl from Florida whom I ended up texting and connected with which turned into developing emotions with over an 8 year period. We don't talk anymore but Runescape brings me to a happy time, wherever she is I hope she is doing okay.
1:48:59 - Work Work Work - I love this one
Really is a banger

btw ur comment was made before corona. heh
@@TheLive100 Well, just the melody and feeling of the song, not the context and name xD

17 years ago today I started my RuneScape journey. I may have taken breaks that have lasted from months to years from the game but never fully abandoned it. I am even as we speak grinding barrows in oldschool
While I was reading your comment, I was like, "Damn, 17 years?!" Then I did the math and realized I started playing 20 years ago...oof. Someone slow the clock down please.
I've longed since moved on from RuneScape but man oh man 42:06 brings me right back to 2005.
It's funny looking back at my childhood hours spent playing this game, thinking I should have gone outside more or got more hobbies. But seeing how fondly I remember this music now and how happy it makes me from just the memories of how much fun I had playing this game, and these comments of how fondly everyone else remembers it here too.. Any regrets I had just vanished, and instead I'm just grateful I had the experience of loving this game growing up.
Bro I grew up in a small town in Australia. Back in early 2000s we had dial up and I was new to computers or even the internet. Tbh I didn't even know what and how the internet worked. Being 7 years old and getting on Runescape because I was behind in school and didn't have many friends either. My uncle was top 10 and even 2nd behind Zezima for a good while
It wasn't until I moved to the city that i realised how big the game actually was and how many people played. I remember all the fuss about Zezima and to me he was just another guy but many were his fans.
Funny enough i'm here now at 25 just chilling on Minecraft having a smoke. It's bit quiet so thought I'd jam out some good old RS soundtracks and check out my OSRS accnt on my mobile phone for some nostalgia.
Man I miss being a kid, not knowing how to pronounce or spell half of the in-game items or even player names lmao. Back when having rune and dragon, barrows etc was cool 😎
I spent more time outside because my parents restricted my computer usage. Trust me, I never even considered your pov.. I just wish I got more time on Runescape
i remember going to school not knowing what runescape was (couldn't afford a home PC) all my friends telling me to start up an account and they would provide me with full bronze (and me thinking that was the shit) thank god the teachers let me play this at school at recess and lunch or I would have missed out on one of the better parts of my childhood
You start killing goblins for 10 gp just to get to alkharid.
Why go the bank at the top of those annoying stairs when the gobs need to die?! Ahaha exactly
Doggo's
Ore mining got me through school thank you RuneScape ❤
Years of playing Runescape with my friends during Middle school/high school, even picking it up a few years ago. I just can't believe how ahead RS was during it's time, even it's OST :*)
I came here for nostalgia, left in tears.
