RuneScape 3 is not a very good video game but my addiction won't let me quit.
In fact, I might even say it's a BAD game. But I don't think OSRS is much better. In fact, I might even say OSRS is just as bad. I was genuinely thinking about switching over to OSRS, but I think sailing was a colossal fuckup.

Tangentially related but I was surprised to learn phats are only about $1500 real world? I'd thought it would be a lot more by now. Makes me feel better about selling before I quit.

I never got into Runescape, I was a Tibia kid.

It just goes to show how much nostalgia can fuck up your life and taste. I wasted my teen years playing this shit and I'm nostalgic for it too BUT I rather relive it in my memories than play it.

OSRS has too much creep, /v/scape however, is how God intended OSRS to be.

all terrible games

atleast turn the graphics up.
the one redeeming thing about RS3 is it can have quite nice environments at times

Is Runscape or OSRS worth playing as a complete beginner? I need a time sink game for my free time but I feel like with most MMOs it's too late for new players to get the full experience without being overwhelmed.

if you ignore everything about the way modern people play it, yeah.
Use the vanilla client for OSRS.
While RS3 has an immense amount of quests and content in general.

bottom skills are Archeology and Necromancy (combat skill)

I think i knew of archeology. It was being dropped just as i was getting burned out for the third time, just before i dropped the game
Never heard of necromancy.
What's it even about. Now i know it's combat but how?

Runescape was always the garbage mmo that third worlders and poor idiots would play because they didn't know any better.

I had a friend who literally grinded his 30s away for a fucking party hat. I'm even embarrassed on the fact I know this information. No one gives a shit about this who is sane. How do you play a shitty ass grinder MMO for over 10 years and realize there aren't better options? Time-Sunk fallacy? Mental illness?

both are good
RS3 is easier as a beginner IF you can handle the barrage of UI interfaces. you can look up other players or spend a few minutes in the settings moving them all around to get what you like. but the game is usually pretty empty, its doing better now because of leagues and the removal of MTX coming about, and the G.E and economy is in an infinitely better place. it has more skills and bosses require a bit more thought in later levels and the combat as more depth. But the combat is also incredibly polarizing at first and you will have no idea what the fuck is going on.
OSRS is nice because it is populated, players wont talk to you since they're all in discord or bots. OSRS is mostly bots or worse venezuelans. and sailing has an influx of players too
but its much more casualized and every player uses addons that practically play the game for them
