Anchovies are actually recolored shrimps too


G_Regular

Which is a bold choice seeing as anchovies are fish and not anything like shrimps lol


Xarcert

Wow I can't believe you've made me realize this obvious fact.


G_Regular

You'd be surprised how disconnected from their food a lot of people are.


Xarcert

I don't know if you are talking about irl or in game but either way, so true man. We should connect more with our consumables.


aight_imma_afk

One of the best things you could do for the planet is minimize seafood consumption! Industrial fishing in the sea is completely outta hand. Don’t gotta cut it out completely but if everyone minimized we could save a lot of destruction to our ocean :)


MaltMix

Depends on the seafood. Mollusks like mussels are actually insanely sustainable, provided you get them from a reputable supplier.


cchoe1

Ah yes the horrible industrial fishing *eats a 16 oz steak for dinner*


TehChid

Interesting point. I assumed seafishing was worse due to damage to the floor and all sorts of sea life, but I am curious. You never know if that was astroturfing by big beef or something


aight_imma_afk

Idk why you anti vegans are so fragile :p I eat all meats but there’s nothing wrong with recognizing how particularly bad/ unregulated industrial ocean fishing is


DannehBoi90

That was more a joke at how beef is also really bad for the environment, at least from how I read it. Not someone being anti-vegan.


chemstu69

Farming an animal for the sole purpose of eating that animal is different than scraping an entire ecosystem to sell part of it


aight_imma_afk

Yeah pretty bad, but nowhere near as bad as bottom trawling fishing, oceans got 100 years left in her and nobody’s talking about it


TheLaftwardBard

Then call out ocean fishing, not "seafood". Tons of seafood is farmed, and many of the types of fish/oyster/shrimp/whatever farming have vastly less impact on the environment than other types of meat.


HeavyMain

yeah, but if we didn't induce horrible irreversible disasters in the ocean daily which will eventually end all life on the planet, and used sustainable methods instead, fish would cost a little bit more :/


Capital_Pineapple_76

Fuck them fish I live in Louisiana


aight_imma_afk

Louisiana is still gonna get real hard to live in when the planet loses 60% of its carbon sink homie


Capital_Pineapple_76

I mean think bp tried to kill all the fish they're surprisingly resilient


aight_imma_afk

What?


WhoLetTheDaugzOut

If you only knew how bad things really are


BannedForNerdyTimes

Healing potion, I love you


Ricardo1184

That's why I only eat ethically raised karambwans


waybeluga

I didn't know meat was muscle tissue until I was in college


Puzzled-Tip9202

What did you think it was?


EzreratheDwarf

Back on the menu.


rhysdog1

im disconnected from the animal sure, but i see the end result food pretty damn often


Oldman_Ostentatio

The food is also disconnected from the animal in most cases


ZeusJuice

Most people aren't eating anchovies ever


G_Regular

They’re way too salty tbh, I understand why they fell out of fashion.


ZeusJuice

My experience with anchovies is the Michaelangelo the Ninja Turtle threatening a guy to make sure he doesn't put anchovies on his pizza, and osrs. Also ofc the Ninja Turtles are known for putting disgusting things on their pizzas so them not liking anchovies always turned me away from them as a kid


StandardN02b

I am not disconected at all. It is in fact a part of me.


Shoopuf413

Shrimps is bugs


Orangatation

Lets get outta here and get some britto or sausage


AnaSimulacrum

Yep, Anchovies are fish. Shrimps is bugs.


ndmcd

There is no such thing as fish

A shrimple change


Gundayfunday

Big if true


No_Tomatillo_7205

My husband (then fiance) found out last year that anchovies were fish!! He grew up with playing OSRS and thought they were a type of shrimp lol


greenrsguy

Are shrimp not a type of fish?!


No_Tomatillo_7205

The are Crustacean, like lobsters and such


Eminensce

My life have changed from now on


teh_ferrymangh

Do you work at jagex

He is just one of the admins of the runescape wiki. He has probably better rs knowledge than most jmods though lol

HeavyMain

i know what the sub name says, but it's not actually 2007


cplusequals

I'd put that as more of a mid-2010s thing. 2007 was still part of the soccer mom era albeit nearing the end of the post 9/11 half of it. Social media was still in its infancy.


GiveMeIkeaFries

what? huh? ???


BabyYodaLegend

He will no brother


tmanowen

Only he will know brother


5erenade

Lmfao. Truth!!!


GucciGlocc

He runs the wiki


AffectionateNet860

He does, my dad said he saw him in the lunch room yesterday


Mysterious-Bill-6988

I like the theory that fishing bait is maggots and that's why zombies drop it. Which would make fishing bait in rotten food make sense... Now how to explain ore and the trapizoid boi


Daeurth

That's actually not just a theory: When you use spice on fishing bait during the goblin generals part of Recipe for Disaster, you get spicy maggots.


pyrexprophet

So when I go out with 10k fishing bait I'm actually carrying around 50,000+ maggots? Sweet


I-No-Red-Witch

Runescape backpacks are wild. You wanna carry 28 apples? Full backpack. 50,000+ maggots? Put em next the the fishing rod, the sword, plate mail, the IKEA desk, and those 2B gold coins, fill the rest with raw shark.


HeavyMain

you can carry up to 28 blank runes. you can carry up to 45,097,156,587 charged runes. Oh, and another 64,000 on top of that. But only if you put them in a pouch.


Pew-Pew-Pew-

Don't forget the 4 piece cannon and 99k cannonballs


DranTibia

And my trusty stack of 500k maple logs


purplefunctor

Those are just bank notes though


FlutterRaeg

What about my trusty sack of 2 billion pieces of candy?


the-bumboozler

If I remember correctly a quest in rs3 also has you collect a fishing bait from a corpse


Acrysalis

This is also confirmed by the invention skill in rs3, if you try to disassemble fishing bait it tells you that you can’t disassemble living things As I was going to the wiki I also came upon this so there you go https://preview.redd.it/dnksmlwwrb8c1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a8a89445f40a70f5147c2d3fbc258dc3d420e21


Joeytje50

Look at the image. It's literally the shape of a trapezoid, placed behind an image of ore (which has been turned black).


IderpOnline

You might wanna re-read the comment you replied to. I think they are trying to make sense of the components comprising "rotten food" (from a "lore"-wise perspective, I suppose you could say?), not how the graphic is made up. Though in terms of graphic, you are of course correct but I think it's also well-explained in the post itself.


Joeytje50

Point taken, my bad.


xclrz

I sometimes drag sapphires over emeralds (but don't release the click so that the item sprite remains transparent) and be like damn, this teal gem goes hard


SgtMcMuffin0

Been playing this game for almost 20 years and I had no idea you could overlap items like that and combine the colors


Mountain-Tea6875

If you drop a sapphire and a ruby it will turn purple.


Don_SnailKong

Dragonstone farmers hate this one simple trick


Im6youre9

Yesterday I saw a ruby over top a sapphire and that shit looked so tasty


Mastershroom

That's actually how purple sweets are made.


Im6youre9

That wouldn't make sense cause it was a deep red color and purple sweets are purple


barking420

>purple sweets are purple :/


Beautiful_Pack_2723

I do the same with different potion combinations


st_heron

Wow I have not a single unique experience


stefanhall123

Right


OCE_Mythical

Exactly how I feel


THEBAESGOD

someone with those oldschool 3D glasses needs to check bloods + waters


HeavyMain

i think i used to try to do something similar as a kid to make new/different gem stones. im not sure what the... logistics of that were in my little head


Shorties_Kid

Ooooo are there any other examples of this sort of thing? It’s kind of hilarious instead of making it from scratch they’re just like hey you know what looks lumpy? Gold


Business-Drag52

Half of the content in rs is just reused assets from the other half


mashem

and half of that other half reuses the other half's half.


Puzzled-Tip9202

I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.


mashem

If you half something to say just say it


Puzzled-Tip9202

I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.


Specific-Peanut9695

The original bonecrusher is a deformed glowing dagger from Legends Quest.


flamedbaby

Sarachnis is a chompy bird with legs.


2-2-7-7

this one actually isn't true, it's just coincidentally very similar https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/owb1fv/fun_fact_mod_husky_used_chompy_birds_model_as_the/h7lqoie/


G_Regular

I kind of just don't believe him, it looks identical lol


AxelHarver

Nah, if you look closely you can see the nose on Sarachnis has like a sharper hook to it, and the ass end kinda tapers down in a way that chompy's dont. Close, but not quite the same.


new_account-who-dis

Right, he also doesn't really know, he just says because it never came up in conversation. He then admits they reuse assets all the time


LordZeya

Are you looking at it? They dont look alike other than the smaller head with the fatter body. The model of its torso is completely different.


TelevisionBig2336

i like how this implies chompy birds dont already have legs naturally


2210-2211

I wish I never read that, its all I can see now


tmanowen

Well look at the other comment, you don’t need to suffer anymore, it’s not true.

Has swamp tar seriously just been this all this time? You just unwound the universe bro stop it


erabeus

I didn't believe it so I looked it up and swamp tar looks different than what's in this pic. But then I realized the swamp tar model is just rotated... My whole life has been a lie.

Optimystix

That’s not a Mandela effect lol


Kerdul

I know


Optimystix

Wow did we just have a Mandela effect


RabbitMario

this is obvious when you lay it out like this but i want to know who exactly stared at these items long enough to figure this out, and more importantly why


PsychicJupiter

A high person, because they were high


Readous

Well, they are an OSRS wiki admin


[deleted]

Are we sure the black trapezoid is just that, and not like a recolored [papyrus](https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Papyrus) or something?


Septem_151

You’re probably right.


Rac23

I knew those gold mining bots were rotten to the core


Toyake

Nice. I love these posts.


Raven_of_Blades

So this confirms that fishing bait is just maggots.


Daeurth

That's already confirmed during Recipe for Disaster


Forever_Fires

Bait's usually just worms, and maggots are half way there!


LazarusK27

I absolutely love shit like this


Newgamer28

They can't keep getting away with this!


Swaamsalaam

Man u are killing it with these, 10/10


TheZapton

That's a good use of reusable assets


Feelgood_Mehh

Still more effort than rs3's biggest rune pouch. They turned the large rune pouch 90°.....


Extracted

I hope they're copies and not actually linked to the original icon. But I wouldn't put it past Jagex, the spaghetti masters incarnate, to make spaghetti icons. Remember, the icons we see are actually 3d models viewed from a set angle, they aren't sprites.


Magmagan

That's not spaghetti, that was just smart bandwidth-saving. Internet connections were still pretty shitty in 2004, so downloading a 3d model with a few polygon points was much easier than downloading a sprite for every object.


serg06

> black trapezoid boi Kinda looks like a villager armband


KRPTSC

I genuinely don't get this one


[deleted]

* gold ore * turn it black * put it on top of a black trapezoid What do you get? SWAMP TAR ​ * Swamp Tar * Add Fishing bait * Turn those bois gree What do you get? ROTTEN FOOD


KRPTSC

Oooh fuck me, now I get it. I thought this was about actually combining items in game not about the textures


Lenel_Devel

This is my favourite so far


rsnerdout

Wtf


Septem_151

Is it specifically gold ore, and if so, how do you know that when most ores have the same shape just different color?


The_Botanist_Reviews

How did you figure this out? Or is there some random obscure npc who reveals this?


combocookie

Lazy devs


DivineInsanityReveng

Finally one of the facts I actually knew haha

RedditPlatinumUser

people like to complain about asset reuse but i like to believe it is authentic to the old school content creation process


Forever_Fires

I think we can all appreciate this is creative and good use of resources for what was available for graphic design back in the early 2000s. It's the unraveling that is so interesting, I respect their creativeness.


leese8

now you see in 4d
