I'm happy to announce that we're finally playing multiplayer!
Menno is in the cool armour, I'm in the weird purple suit, and the person on the right was some random player photobombing us
Menno's armour is apparently purely cosmetic so I have better equipment #getrekt
...buuuuuuttttt it also looked cool so now Genericson is a mennoknight also
also Genericson is very disappointed by his lack of a premium beard but his mum won't give him her credit card
anyway
on to the quest!
you may notice a lack of McMenno
it was at this point we realised this quest was instanced and so there was no multiplayer possible
so now we will resume our normal scheduled lonely programming
apparently this godsforsaken isle has been invaded by horrifying creatures!
well, you called the right incredibly generic adventurer for the job! This is nothing the good ol' bronze dagger can't handle.
The dastardly creature emerges!
...and is very quickly dispatched. But clearly there will be more of them.
excuse me sir if you could kindly move out of the way, I have an infestation to deal with
(this was supposed to be a rat killing montage but I only got one picture so I've used some clever techniques to make it look like more than one)
phew. the infestation is finally dealt with and we can return to the surface!
excuse me sir could you please stop blocking the ladder
The surface! but that spiral staircase looks intriguing. Genericson is not one to leave an area unexplored!
Oh gods, it lead to a puzzle.
on we go!
sirs, please, we have gone over this. You're making a scene.
we will now call a short intermission to find out how our multiplayer partner is doing
get rekt
intermission ends
goddammit not another one of these
sir please move out of the w
bloody hell
um, let's just pretend that never happened
as I was saying, Genericson successfully activated the spike traps and continued on his way
alright, there are the citizens being held hostage by the rats
Genericson needs to be prepared for one hell of a fight here
Bronze dagger - Check
Food (quintessential Bread & Fish to take advantage of the infamous Galilee duplication bug) - Check
Cow remains & iron ore - not sure why these are necessary, but Check
Gemstones looted from the village while the villagers were still down here - Check (hey, it's basically an advance payment for saving them)
Backup sword in case the dagger doesn't work - completely unnecessary, but Check
[1]
all good to go!
these rats are getting quite large now
has science gone too far
Huzzah! Bronze dagger wins the day again!
I think there was supposed to be a cutscene here but I skipped it by trying to screenshot, so instead I will post this screenshot that I apparently took somewhere and don't remember the context of
anyhow, the citizens of the realm are free!
time to get out of here before they notice the missing Gems
\o/
and with that, Runescape's Tutorial phase is over! The game is no longer directing Genericson's path - from here he will venture out on his own...
oh wait, this was supposed to be multiplayer
Here is Menno's side of the story!
thank you Menno!
Anyway, the game is no longer directing Genericson's path - from here he will venture out on his own...
where will it take him? Find out in the next episode!
(it will probably be somewhere quite noob friendly)
[1]Observant readers will notice one extra item in the inventory. That is apparently a troll and I have no idea what it does, but once it was realised that the quest was singleplayer, Genericson decided to keep it with him to remind him of Menno.
