idk why this pic confused me so much but it took me a full second to remember that these are 2 different games

u/OkJunket1385 2d ago

I exclusively play both RuneScape and Minecraft so I scrolled past for while before I thought "wait wtf was that" lmao

u/MazrimReddit 2d ago

/r/scapecraft you can do both

u/Violatic 2d ago

This is so cute, how is it being made? The subreddit goes back nearly 9 years!

10

u/MazrimReddit 2d ago

there are some big periods of inactivity in that time for sure, but I have been bringing it back recently, I made it my revise java again project lol.

Please come check it out, it's back to a bit of a beta state right now, but lots of stuff is looking very good!

I haven’t downloaded a Minecraft mod in about 10 years, is it still as simple as it used to be? Might play this this week

5

u/MazrimReddit 2d ago

much simpler than it used to be, there is a "guide" on the subreddit stickied, literally just download and search for scapecraft. Does all the work you have to do before with moving .zip files around

u/Killoah ^ Amount of Bots online. 2d ago

Awesome mate cheers, I’ll be checking this out then

2

u/MazrimReddit 2d ago

no problem :), server is actually down for the night if you try to join right now, but that is because a big update is being done, normally always up

5

u/Killoah ^ Amount of Bots online. 2d ago

I’m currently busy drinking alcohol to join a server but I’ll definitely check it out in the week

u/StandardN02b 2d ago

THAT MOD STILL EXISTS!?

u/AsinineArchon 2d ago

I’ve been playing Minecraft the last two weeks so I literally could not figure out what OP was pointing out. It all looked correct to me

u/Alternative-Day5268 2d ago

I actually had a thought of - wait wasn't it like this back in the day you had to add sticks and bars to make a pickaxe FFS lol

u/2mustange 2d ago

Glad I wasn't the only one

u/bxnjz 2d ago

Same lmaoo

u/Ok_Assistant_3599 2d ago

Funny enough quite a few early Minecraft Youtubers like Antvenom and Sky made Runescape videos before transitioning to Minecraft.

u/TheTerribleTwinker 1d ago

Was that before or after he started beating his wife

1

u/Sonnydoubleu 1h ago

We've gotta be using names instead of pronouns when the original comment references two people and Sky is the wife beater. Antvenom is an OG and Sky is a POS who tried to sell his channel in the middle of the allegations and then went to streaming daily behind a youtube membership paywall

u/ItsSadTimes 2d ago

For real? Runescape really is the common link.

1

u/Hatem_Shoofi 2d ago

I was like, that IS how you make a rune platebody though xD

17

u/Ok-Statistician-9607 2d ago

Why does this feel so right

17

u/Meraxes80 2d ago

along with the mining rework? what is this? some kind of mine and craft?

1

u/SwearingAtChildren 2d ago

Could rename it to Craftmine

98

u/enderfrogus 3d ago

I'm lowkey convinced that diamons being blue and being used for best gear is directly inspired by RuneScape

u/Majestic_Jelly_9958 2d ago

Netherite was just a bit after inquisitor as well, thought I doubt theres a connection

Diamond plate body in RuneScape when

u/Background-Dress-641 2d ago

Smithimg reforged be like: lvl 99= bejewelled rune platebody.

Bejewelling rune platebodies, the new armor trimming scam

u/Low_Chair4239 3d ago

Can I share about my struggle with diamond colors?

5

u/GoodGame2EZ 2d ago

We're not talking about diamonds in Runescape. We're talking about diamonds in Minecraft, Rune in Runescape, and best gear.

u/GoodGame2EZ 2d ago

It's not my comparison, and Rune is best F2P gear as well as a classic and iconic symbol for top gear in general. The highest smithing requirement in the game is a rune plate body at 99 smithing.

Also, dragon as 'best gear'? You're either a bot or you got caught saying something stupid and now you're pretending to be stupid to cover your tracks.

1

u/Trash_Man_12345 Remove Clue Relic 2d ago

Its not the best gear in RS. That has been dragon.

Ok, 1 month old bot.

u/OhLoongJohson 2d ago

Support. Only if they add enchanting skill afterwards so that I can get my protection IV, thorns III, mending, unbreaking III rune platebody (preferably mentioning all of that in the item name)

13

u/Gabtraff No Gay, No Pay 2d ago

Mending on a rune platebody wouldn't be that helpful as it doesn't have durability. Mending for my Dharoks/moons gear however ...

2

u/Erksike 2d ago

Maybe OP is suggesting every armor to get durability... Disappears completely once broken

6

u/DesCuddlebat Hunter's Sunlight Crossbow Enthusiast 2d ago

Smithing 50 now gets you a rune platebody with 0 enchantability, need 90 for enough enchatability for a chance at Protection IV

5

u/Traditional-Bus-8239 2d ago

In the pitch of shamanism a benefit of it would be that the skill could do exactly that (enhance existing armor and weapons with a wide variety of new properties)

u/B0dders 2d ago

RS3 Invention Perks basically

9

u/Banetaay 3d ago

I would honestly enjoy a type of smith/crafting system like this in RS4

u/Acceptable_Chef7323 2d ago

You know more than us

u/Dabeston 2d ago

Better idea than the reworks I’ve seen so far!

u/The_Weasel75 2d ago

I have this flavor of autism.

u/liamberry121 2d ago

This must be that new ai combining 2 games I've been hearing about

u/9Austin7 3d ago

Just play Minecraft?

u/mayence #1 Quest Enjoyer 3d ago

what’s that

-22

u/9Austin7 3d ago

Yeah okay lol

30

u/mayence #1 Quest Enjoyer 3d ago

is it a new skill like Runecraft?

11

u/Trash_Man_12345 Remove Clue Relic 3d ago

It's a new minigame.

1

u/McNikkelsson 2d ago

New minigame that gives mining and crafting xp?

u/OGDogJaw 3d ago

Have some confidence buddy, don’t use wiggle words like “probably” when you’re throwing insults

Just say “your sex life” next time and it’ll have a little more punch to it

u/DonCarleon3 2d ago

So minecraft?

u/justinfromnz 2d ago

Minecraft

u/magnum3290 2d ago

What gave it away?

u/IllustriousBat2680 2d ago

It's subtle, but if you look really closely, you can see the icon for the rune ingots are slightly more "blocky" than the normal ingots in Runescape. Of course, it's easy to miss so you will need to look really carefully.
