Come home MMO bros. OSRS is everything the genre should be and more.

Runescape is not a video game its 1 step away from gacha, hell its even p2w if u want to skip the gambling

>>715518858
Everyone plays ironman now get with the times old man

OSRS used to have a great economy and items that made sense, now it's a clusterfuck of garbage content and spreadsheeting pvm encounters to maximize your profits. I don't give a fuck about any of that, I have thousands of boss KCs on so called "bad" bosses, but even I'm feeling like I'm getting left behind

I'LL CRUSH YOUR BODY!
I'LL BREAK YOUR BACK!
I'LL SUCK YOUR DICK!

Honestly a lame mechanic. I get you don't have a lot of room to work with because OSRS mechanics but when you're asking people to switch to the fucking equipment menu to dodge an attack you're really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

>>715517928 (OP)
I don't have time for this shit anymore.

What's with the osrs shill campaign lately? Is this like when people were posting that pasta about 'the acclaimed mmorpg ffxiv' or whatever back when WoW twitter niggers were having a meltdown over the sex pest lawsuit?

>>715517928 (OP)
this shit might as well be cookie clicker

A lot of /vg/ is like that so it seems. The generals provide a sense of community where trannies like to fester and take control.

>>715522981

This truly ruined my entire week, a FUCKING button I had to read and then press. Dear lord, this is truly injustice.

Mod North killing off the pride events and deleting the twitch vod off youtube was a great move but I would prefer it if he removed all the in-game pride shit instead, or added back the so called "offensive" dialogue that was removed

>Troonscape

>>715527843
if you're asking that, the game isn't for you. Runescape's entire concept is about setting your own goals and fun.

jewlly????

>>715527843
runescape is the only MMO where it's more like a single player sandbox when everyone MMO is "do slop until the real game near the end"
in rs you can play how you want and that's the "fun" part in a way you could just autistically cut trees till 99 or just do combat only
but however you play it, it's gonna be fucking slow and if you hate that then nothing will change

>>715528371

>>715529359
The fun used to be when you could hang out with others, but it's become a 1P experience. Hell, you don't even know if you are talking with bots or real players anymore. RSPS don't have this issue since most have more better control over the bot situation.

>>715520084
F-keys were a mistake. I like the mechanic but the text shouldn't be above Sol's head, it gets clipped because of his height, your character shoudl say some rebuttal too so you can focus on the flares/puddles. Also you should be able to preemptively take off equipment to dodge it, that fact that you still have to clcik even if the slot is empty is retarded

>>715529482
Yes and the grind part is the game
RS3 lets you skip the grind mostly if you want to skip to endgame like wow or something
and yes it feels like cookie clicker because the MMO part is gone since you so many faggot ironmen running around and minigames are dead, so there's nothing left but XP gains

btw private servers aren't any better
despite the lower player count they have a higher trans%
>>715525252
>>715529639

literally 95% bots
woke as fuck and completely rigged with entirely dead/rigged pvp
im good bro
i played about 4 bonds this year
made like 400m
and the devs crashed the 400m so im at 4.3b bank
its just a endless loop of doing the same shit over and over
if the devs were not evil and it wasnt all bots
maybe
but its a dead mmo
held up entirely by bots
and like 20k ironmen

nobody plays osrs bro
i played a few bonds cuz i was bored
got vorkath pet smoke devil pet rancor drop
etc
and i just always felt like most other players were bots or ai lol
i fucked off cuz the pvp is dead and i dont want to endlessly do slayer
im like 17m xp lol
ill probably be back to do wgs at some point
cuz it was very fun when i did it in 2012
but the game is in such a bad state lol

i logged into my account whos just at the GE and I looked at my bank and my stats and I was like "yeah nah" and logged off.

why tho
its fun for a bit but its very buggy

I want to but they keep basing almost every update around ironmen or no life streamers. I do not understand the idea of pandering to a subsect of people who (willingly) gimped their accounts in a game whose genre has "massively multiplayer" as part of it's acronym

>>715529482
I'd say Runescape is more akin to a puzzle game (how to solve larger problems with smaller grinds). The grinds can be afkable (aka "cookie cutter", getting gains over time with little effort) or requiring effort (bossing, tick manip methods, muh guitar hero, etc. etc. rewarding with more exp/matierals). Grinding is just part of the game, but at least there are many different grinds and paths to take that break it up.
I did my entire grad school AFKing on RSPS lmao

>ecelebs start streaming osrs
>threads still appearing
don't fall for it. orsr hasnt changed. itll still put you to sleep.

I have a HCIM alt, but I find it hard to play on because I always think that I could just be doing shit on my main instead.

Paying 12.5euros for this game is a rip off

>>715530089

Taking an indefinite break and varlamore part 3 won't bring me back, it's gonna be the same hamster wheel with 1/5000 bullshit. It's so arbitrary, got ACB and got 4 shards from muspah, then realized the 5th is just a shitty bow for one mechanic at whisperer who drops a shittier ring than my ultor. Cba leviathan being designed solely for tbow/bowfa and fuck those grinds especially

The thing of all that killed OSRS for me was the grand exchange. Even avoiding using it had trickle effects across the game. Retarded as fuck drop rate increases, pinata bosses, etc.....

Vscape doesn't have the GE and that works perfectly fine. Why did OSRS shit the bed so hard? 2007 was the best era truly...

>>715530447
im assuming your a ironman and a loser
but venator bow is the best weapon in the entire game lol
for multicombat areas
so strong its not even funny
dont play osrs tho its dogshit
literally anything else is less of a waste of time than osrs

>>715530392
yeah i drop people in pvp with infernal all the time lul
i am better at the game than they are
and i refuse to do inferno cuz i am not a loser who wants to waste hours on end for a +1 max hit lul
>>715530298
if i was god i would put anyone who likes ironman mode into hell forever
i made one to see what the hype was and it was the most loser shit ever lol

>>715530298
Piss easy is an exaggeration, the game mode still exhibits a lot of tedium; it's mostly early-midgame stuff they've buffed. Gear upgrades are significant and incremental enough to fuel the game mode. There's also tangible incentives to skill beyond diary requirements. I can't imagine playing a main nowadays where every item liquidates to GP.

>>715517928 (OP)
Idk, I got bored at 90 base stats and started botting.
Got a warning ban after maxing and decided to stop playing because there's just nothing worthwhile in the game.

That autism, you're juat autistic anon. I don't know if you didn't play back during actual rs2 but the game was designed around bartering for a significant portion of its life. You got a drop from boss 1 but wanted one from boss 2, barter and add gp, want some supplies for other stuff? Liquidate it and fund it. It's 2025, its ok to not engage with some content, having options for how you want to play is infinitely better than some metafag sperg forced progression route thay the devs subconsciously implement due to all the whining

>>715531006
bro vscape anon is correct, also you type like a redditard, it's time to go back.

I remember bonds used to be 3 million gp. Now they're 13-14 million gp. It's over.

It is really fun but I don't understand how you are supposed to make a lot of progress without ruining your real life. I got to like 120 combat and 96 slayer and I realized I spent 3000 hours on something that isn't going to make my life any better.

Its not even like its this super difficult experience nowadays but literally the entire deisgn philosophy is to just be as cancerous and time wasting to the player. I'm sorry but if 90%+ of completions are done by people RWT'ing to pay someone and do the content for them, the content is absolute dogshit, people should want to do content, even if its a little difficult, the fact that jagex has to monitor for bought capes is a sign that the content was absolutely out of touch and should have been redesigned week 1

They were shitting out loot before they gave a fuck about Ironman. zulrah was the point where they decided bosses should br consistant money instead of relying on rare drops. But they didnt want to just drop raw GP so they dropped a ton of items.

They should be looking at Ironman and boss drops as a way to figure out what shit needs fixing like Rune essence being completely fucked if you had to just mine it instead of bosses dropping it by the thousand. Ironman aren't the cause of the problem they are just the ones that point out the problems because boss loot gets used as a bandaid fix to replace skilling being shitty and useless.

>>715531990
Yeah I guess you are right, kinda what I was thinking but I fucked up articulating it. I'd rather them have focused on improving shit grinds like mining essence rather than, as you said, bandaid fixes which skips entire grinds, but the past is past.

>>715531981
I don't know what you mean

>>715531361
No, it does not

Isn’t this the gay pride game.

>>715531990
>Rune essence being completely fucked if you had to just mine it
NTA but I hate that rune ess is one of those situations where I totally what jagex was trying to do when it was released (I was there), but the game has evolved so far past its original scope that the skill doesn't compliment magic anymore, at all. Bosses and raids require a 3 combat styles nowadays, or hybrid at minimum, and you just chew through runes doing any nu-scape content because it has such fucking artificially inflated times for drops rates. I'm a pretty big purist but runecrafting needs a redesign, or boost, or alternate supply generation method if you want to encourage people to skill for supplies. Whoever thought of thhe scar essence shit should be hung, what a fucking non-solution bandaid fix

>>715531035

people complain about WoW lately, but at least they didn't hold an in game forced pride event and if anyone complained they perm banned them.

>>715532645
abandoned. garbage. didn't last a month.
thanks for the money retards.

>>715532645
I liked the skills linking to each other in small ways, even if the episode ideas were weird. Didn't mind the combat split between areas. But andrew fell intot he trap of small qol and bug fixes that shoukd have been done month 1 and he just refuses to add new content that it desperately needed. There absolutely should have been more world bosses and group content but he hasn't addressed that at all

>>715532529
Scar essence mine exists purely because they didn't want to just give Ironmen an infinite runeshop so it was just constantly constantly hopping and hoping other people were buying the stock. Even with the competition just hopping worlds and buying was the only way to get runes in a reasonable amount of time. So they added the scar mine as a more expensive but easier way. For a main account it doesn't exist since they can just buy shit from other people

>>715532645
Everyone I knew that was playing it has long since dropped it, despite initially liking it.

>>715532904
this is why i will never play more than a bond or 2 maybe 3
they added a fucking endgame quest where one of the rewards is only for ironmen
like holy fuck this game is dead lmao
ironmen must be the only non bots left
cuz all updates are for them
literally all

>>715532645
98% drop in players according to the Steam hub.
also the game had seperate items and progress between zones which EVERYONE didn't like but the dev refused to budge on.

>>715532904
That's my point, it doesnt fix the core issue of not encouraging players enough to gather and craft their supplies. Its treating the symptoms and not the actual problem

>>715532738
Anon….they do that

Are we just pretending that the new CEO didn't cancel this year's pride event?

>>715532645
Yes, it was awful.
I don't get why the Gower Brothers didn't just take the RuneScape formula and make a new game set in space or something, like that Stellar Dawn project by Jagex that got canned.

>>715533134
Not him but this is exactly the problem, retards signing up for something and not wanting to deal with the limitations

You want the truth? You can't handle the truth!

>>715533228
Don't care, I'm playing the game and never see any pride shit because I'm doing bosses. I'll care when he cancels the most shilled update of all: sailing

osrs is good because it respects your time, progress is eternal, skilling is fun, but it will never have as good of feeling combat as other games. the smoothness and responsiveness of the other mmos is nowhere to be found. also tank/dps/healer grouping doesn't exist.

>>715534170

>>715535465
Been years but was no-guide EW shit worse than no guide Mourning's End 2? I almost never remember the elemental workshop. Maybe because the rewards are SHIT compared to the quest's bullshit.

>>715535801
Ignore, he's being a nigger and saying you should make a pure for pvp and skip 99% of the games content

The only thing worse than playing OSRS is playing it on a dead server ran by a /v/tard.

>>715535465
I was there on release, thought "Fuck that" and went to bed. When I woke up the wiki had a step by step guide that I followed.

WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? Go back to plebit, you are unwanted.

>>715535402
Maybe. As far as the announcement went, it's one of three tests they're running with the player base. I think it's
>Removing treasure hunter
>Removing MTX skilling items
>Cosmetic free worlds
each running for one or two weeks to test it out. If they replace something, then it's just back to the same old shit, but until then I'll be happy with it. I'd enjoy having actual people playing RS3.

Dunno, what does Guild Wars play like? All to the other MMOs I’ve tried (besides OSRS) play and feel the exact same, you could probably start a new Korea slop MMO and fit right in as a WoW/FFXIV/Whatever player. OSRS feels totally different

>>715542317
this is exactly the problem, if skills were tweaked to be feasible for outputing supplies, ironman would make more sense. Killing bosses for supplies because it's faster is fundamentally wrong on so many level

it de values skilling. But it feels good to do so I don't really agree with you at all. Slayer being the ultimate skill is a positive for me personally.

>>715543789
realistically, if boss drops were decent, but sub skilling, how would that be worse for you?

>>715517928 (OP)
Leagues is the only way to actually play OSRS

>>715543905
because skilling is boring?

>>715517928 (OP)
I haven't played since 2023. My ironman is around 2150 total and I don't care to max, plus I don't have any desire to farm supplies just so I can get bent over by dry streaks at every boss I still have left to do
I have 0 interest in farming pets like a troon edater so the game is over for me

>>715544075
give me the dam bread stick woman

>>715544045
if you don't skill anyway what does it matter to you, it's part of the game
if skillers inherently got more supplies from focusing on something than slayers getting way more shit for free (which is how the game was before the combat rework and massive drop increases btw) if you're still getting enough for your needs, but they get more for their speciality, how is that worse for you?
almost seems like some nigger gibs mentality thing "i should get everything even though i don't participate with over half of the game's mechanics"

>>715544476
I do skill. I'd rather get a bunch of logs and ores from drops than get them myself. Bosses would drop coins instead of loot in your ideal world i guess? That would be worse.

>>715544583
no are you actually illiterate? i didn't say that at all
i said if you still get enough drops for your needs, but skilling is inherently more of what they're focusing on, why is that worse for you
as it is there's very little reason to skill most of the skills instead of just grinding kills

>>715517928 (OP)
Played this game for 20 years and just woke up from a dream(nightmare?) about relapsing, fuck the devs of this game and anyone who still gives them money after all the price raises and the survey and "apology" about how much they want to shove ads into f2p and make a "cheaper" membership with no rights to customer service. Fuck bonds too. Anyone who thinks OSRS is all the mmo genre can achieve is insane considering that by now it wears all the same cancer that the rest of the genre does. Sold my bank after the project zanaris cancellation, god forbid anyone wants to play any version of the game with less grind and pay2win lol.

>>715544765
you only skill for xp gain, not resources. that's why trading is in the game.

The whole point of MMOs is playing games with your friends, whether you made them in game or not, retard. The game does nothing to encourage that. Chatting with boring autistic randos like about how long they've spent clicking virtual trees is fucking gay, and you yourself are outing yourself a "social outcast" by not understanding that.

This tilted me the moat out of all the shit that happened the last few months.

It is fully accurate revision 244 currently, and will be updating throughout the various revisions but you can always select which version you want to play on your own server. The live server on the website will always be the newest

>>715541229
Not like wow or OSRS, honestly I wouldn't know how to really put it into words. It's kind of like a deck builder with its abilities where you also have to "catch" abilities from monsters. As far as I know, it was amongst the first to do a limited action bar of 8. Watch a video if you want to know, I couldn't do it justice.

>#1 skill by a mile is being able to interact with the game in a consistent rhythmic manner

Their obsession with prayer flicking and eventually tick based gameplay really fucked up this game for everyone not in the top 1-2%. I cannot imagine what percent of the playerbase will NEVER interact with the inferno, etc.

>>715567305
>Their obsession with prayer flicking and eventually tick based gameplay
You do not need to know about ticks or prayer flick to beat any content in the game

>>715567393
I love how retards immediately go into this cope to avoid the point being made. Kill yourself.

i forgot how much 2004 scape sucked.

what other form of skill expression do you suggest to replace it or should everything just be put up pray melee and left click

>>715567461
Okay so do you have an actual rebuttal?

>>715529892
>ironmen are not popular at all
I'm sure you have a riveting argument to back this up
>i saw a dude with like 500 temp that was like top 1k hcim
Hcim came out years after Ironman became available, and a lot of people who try it die early and become regular ironman. Hcim population is not indicative on regular ironman. Very strange that your metric of how alive a game mode is is how many people have spent hundreds of hours doing a single minigame. 500 Tempoross is like a minimum of 80 hours of efficient play and more like 100-120 hours.

>>715541613
they save like 0 time per kc and before you have a bowfa you basically don't have any ranged weapons so titans kc are struggling

personally i don't quite buy it. i think you just do titans whenever you get a fire giants task en route to 68 slayer+100 combat, taking an RCB for when you have to range. and if you don't get them by the time you hit those milestones you shrug and wait until you're done with cg (+ancient sceptre or dragon hunter wand, vorkath head, and bandos hilt) and back to slayer. but i think the guide doesn't even get rcb access until 68 slayer so maybe that's why the delay

>>715567692
Are you retarded? Just because it isn't REQUIRED, does not mitigate the fact that being able to pray flick and have tick to tick gameplay is considerably the most important aspect of endgame pve and pvp.

>you don't NEED to eat more than once per 7 days!

>>715567592
Since OSRS players already like separate meme modes, they really need to attempt EoC 2.0.

>>715568158
>is considerably the most important aspect of endgame pve and pvp.
It's not even slightly, once again there is NO content that requires you to do it so how could it be important?

>>715567393
this has not been true since like 2023

>>715568276
okay what content do you need to do either of those for to beat?

>>715568448
Most of the gm combat achievements and high invocs?

>>715568448
anon, you can't even beat ToB without having some grasp of ticks and flicking
And you 1000% aren't beating colosseum without them.

>>715568448
tob, collo, pvp (pathetic of you to ignore this), toa, inferno, achievements.

im sure im forgetting something

>>715564186
>bullied a tranny pmod into deleting xer steam, twitter, discord and all internet presence due to being an annoying smug unpaid mopmaster
nothing to fix, perfect the way it is

>>715568545
Okay fine I'll concede on the "Don't use prayer" GM stuff, that is retarded and against the spirit but it's not actual content, it does not lock you out of anything other than the meme helm now.
>>715568650
What part of ToB do you need to flick at or know what a tick is? Same for Colosseum.

>>715565037
>all the other generals just spam shitty fanart
The osrs threads would be doing the same, its just that runescape fanart is nearly nonexistent, especially lewd art which is what the average /vg/ general loves to dump in their threads.

>>715568794

nah new wow season coming in a few weeks need to pump that mythic + with the boys and get aotc

>>715568962

I accept your concession

>>715568794
I'm not spoon feeding you info you time wasting nig, collo has MULTIPLE things that need tick gameplay. Go reevaluate your life shitposting lies like this on a tuesday evening

>>715568794
>What part of ToB do you need to flick at or know what a tick is
every fight except butcher
>Colosseum
are you serious?
the whole thing

>>715569075
>collo has MULTIPLE things that need tick gameplay
Okay literally just name one that you NEED tick gameplay for

>>715569102
You do not need to flick or be tick perfect at Maiden
You do not need to flick or be tick perfect at Nylos
You do not need to flick or be tick perfect at Sota
You do not need to flick or be tick perfect at Xarpus
You do not need to flick or be tick perfect at Verzik
Did I miss anything or do you want to actually explain where it's needed? Are you going to talk about things like very optionally going off tick from your teammates in the Xarpus fight?

>>715569317
>tick perfect
no one said tick perfect, the argument is ticks being relevant.
1. Casual players from 2007 playing like shit and completely ignoring ticks will get destroyed in ToB

>>715569540
I don't see how else ticks could be relevant for them, a single situation where I need to actually count 0.6 seconds instead of looking at a visual. Unless you want to actually fucking explain for once instead of dodging the question.

>>715517928 (OP)
OSRS is unplayable if you don't have a second monitor to watch something else on while you play but if you do it's a great time waster.

>>715569597
>I don't see how else ticks could be relevant
Because that's what OSRS bossing is balanced around now?
I think you forget how quaint old RS2 bosses were.
Compare ToB to God Wars.
Compare Xarpus to Kree'arra.
RS2's first truly difficult boss was Nomad, and he's still quaint compared to modern bossing.
I really don't know why you're even arguing about this, bossing has objectively gotten harder, just look at Inferno, which is the objective example.

>>715570408
Okay and where in the Xarpus fight do you need to know what a tick is to kill him? He has more mechanics than Kree but everything can be reacted to visually.
This is literally all I'm trying to get an answer for.

>>715570632
Because you have to understand the timing for his tile gimmick?
I think you're abstracting the fact that you implicitly understand ticks, the average, casual runescape player who barely bosses, does not.

>>715570753
>Because you have to understand the timing for his tile gimmick?
Huh? He shoots a green ball at you that you can step a tile from when you see it. There is absolutely no need to know there is a tick system to do that, it's just reaction to a green blob on screen.
Yes you are right, a player doing late game stuff is going to "implicity undertand ticks" because that is the rhythm of OSRS combat but you do not have to do anything other than react to a visual on screen to complete any content in the game.

>>715517928 (OP)
massively singleplayer online idle game made by literal faggots

>>715517928 (OP)
I like OSRS as a casual game and the quests are pretty fun, but holy shit the PVP couldn't be more unfun if they tried. Literally StarCraft Korean levels of autism. Boggles my mind how anybody could fucking enjoy that.
Say what you will about World of Warcraft but it has by far the best PVP of any MMO out there.

>>715571569
blowpipe was the worst thing to happen to osrs

>>715517928 (OP)
sailing as a skill sounds fucking retarded how is that even going to work in a game like osrs
even summoning made more sense

>>715571738
new world had (has?) pretty good pvp
shame about many of the other choices the game made

>>715572413
sailing will be OSRS's 2nd dungeoneering, where they'll eventually add entire instanced skilling ecosystems to it

>>715517928 (OP)
Looks like shit. The only good MMO was FFXI and it died like 15 years ago.

Extremely lame and gay combat. The difficulty comes entirely from the UI. If keybinding prayers, equipment, movement, spells, food, potions, targeting and so on was allowed, it would trivialize all PvE in the game. Games that operate at a higher level of abstraction, that actually require strategy instead of just not fucking up a braindead sequence of clicks, are inherently superior.

If you didn't start playing pre-wilderness and free trade update in 2007 you don't deserve to touch this game

>>715571569
wtf is this shit?
This looks gay and retarded af
>instead of clicking any skills everything is just swapping equipment and menus constantly

Is this the actual state of Runescape?
This is "high level" play? Looks extremely gay.

Fuck reddit and their crying about daily scape. Penguin hide and seek was based

>EoC bad cause managing an action bar is autistic

>>715572798
basketball would be a completely different game if you were allowed to hold the ball while moving
same for soccer and using your hands at all
sometimes restricting input bandwidth gives the developers design space - like in runescape, the fact your cursor needs to be in the prayer menu to switch prayers means they can make devious stuff where mechanics that ask you to move or switch weapons at the same time as you switch prayers

>>715575641
all the gear swaps and menu management the player is doing have actual purposes, rather than just being an autopilot sequence of buttons you'd use at any encounter in the game

>>715577249
Do you hear yourself?
>all the gear swaps and menu management

How about some actual fucking gameplay?
>B-but anon, the gear swapping and menu management IS the gameplay!
Glad I stick to playing real games instead of this dumb shit.

>>715577249
>rather than just being an autopilot sequence of buttons you'd use at any encounter in the game
do you really believe that's any more the case than os?
gear swaps are the worst thing in the game, there is a difference between swapping to a weapon for a special or bringing a setup where you can use multiple different styles just by changing 1 or 2 items, which usually involves a sacrifice in the gear you can bring as it needs to work for multiple styles.

the fact they are added overloads, sorry, divine potions, that buff all your stats, and did it solely to shrink the amount of buffs you need to carry so facilitate gear swaps is absurd

>>715577249
having to click in 2 places at once isnt a design space worth pursuing
how about a design space of actually thinking instead of being challenged by prayer flicking efficiently you fucking retard

>>715579926
>actually thinking
Ok go do mournings end part 2 without a guide bitchboy
>nooo not like that I want to feel smart not dumb
too bad faggot

>>715580224
the puzzles for mournings end part 2 are tedious, not hard. In an actual puzzle game they wouldnt be remarkable, but because shitscape makes you slog through slow movement and combat the whole time its unbearable without a guide
this goes for everything in runescape btw. How many quests are just 90% running?

>>715580902
ok then do it
>no
that's what I thought bitch
>noo I totally could I just won't because it's so boring
you don't actually want to think you want to be stimulated with flashing colors and anime women screaming "onii-chan daisuke~!" admit it

runescapes core gameplay is just too jank and shit for the kind of high apm endgame they want it to be so once i got a quest game i just lost all interest in it

>>715580990
>bro just train Agi to 99 for it to still not be tolerable
no fag

>>715518858
You're thinking of RuneScape 3. OSRS doesn't have lootboxes.

>>715520591
WoW Twitch streamers and YouTubers got assfucked by Blizzard because there's a completely new three-expansion-spanning (original trilogy) version of Classic coming out, but it's only for China, so the Western content creators lose thousands to literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in content creation material. Hence, a bunch of them left for OSRS.

>>715557275
https://2009scape.org/
yah it does

>>715588498
>2009 with 40% of the content

No.

>>715530047
Relatable. Getting to 50-70 takes no time at all, but going deeper than that requires such a massive time investment that I just cba to put in anymore. So many other things I'd rather do. RS3 XP is a joke it's so easy to get, but OSRS makes you slave for it. I think they're both too far one way & the other. A middle ground would bring a lot of people back, but the community would go in an uproar if they ever adjusted xp rates. Instead they just add new more efficient ways to earn xp, which just funnels players into engaging with less and less of the content. It's really bad. Both the community and the devs have no clue what they're doing. Community is too resistant to change, and the devs are too scared to do anything big to draw in new & returning players alike in fear of alienating current players. OSRS will rot until this is addressed, sadly.

Osrs is half solved guide following slop and half dead content
For me it’s 2004scape

>>715587137
No one said anything about loot boxes. Anon said RuneScape is one step away from gacha.
Gacha is not a loot box it’s even worse.

>>715588692
That's why they killed Project Zanaris
If they gave the community the ability to fix their manufactured problems, then they would, and nobody would play vanilla anymore

>>715588709
Based

Explain to me how Runescape players stomach these two things
>Botting
This game is not only a botted hellscape, but botting is encouraged and common among even regular players. It's become to Runescape players AFAIK a fact of their game. So long as you get away with it, there's tons of guides and forums to support it out in the open. People are shameless to it.
>The combat
I don't mean the gameplay, I got nothing to knock on for people progressing, gathering, crafting, trading, questing. But the actual "combat" is a joke. Post a Webm of it if you dare.

Sure you have people swapping stuff, but I doubt it's fun nor does it look fun.

>wageslave in real life

>>715588874
Every account I've ever botted on has been banned, and I didn't even bot all that much. I had a 1500 total account that I botted some thieving XP on for some quest requirement. When I got banned but still saw hordes of bots when I tried to return, I stopped caring about the game.

No mercy. They'll do it again as soon as they can get away with it.

It's a seasonal game and it's between seasons.
You can't play WoW forever like you can OSRS. You eventually just run out of shit to do.

Sorry

why is it that as soon as my friend ropes me into trying osrs (~3w ago) i now start seeing a billion threads about it on /vee/?

>>715594649
I think WoW is in between expansions so all the ecelebs are playing Runescape

i think im addicted to blackjacking. I farmed 1 mill xp this morning after learning how to position my camera so i don't have to move my mouse

>>715594763
its even better, wow is releasing a new expansion and all the wow ecelebs are STILL playing runescape

Been "playing" this. Idle osrs with no micro transactions. I wake up in the morning and number has gone up and I'm pleased. I queue up fishing and check back 6 hours later to see number has gone up even more.

>>715520591
it's because /v/'s online surrogate daddy streamers are latching onto OSRS to save their dying streams during this content lull.

>>715588874
>I got nothing to knock on for people progressing, gathering, crafting, trading, questing
because that part of it is good enough to counter it, the combat is pretty subject to taste, but again, is based on

>they admitted they're skipping leagues this year
nah

I'd play current Runescape if I could play on a private server all alone with multiplied exp and drops so I can focus on the questing
