Play OSRS
>>729775851Sandwiches!
>>729775851Maxed ironman before sailing came out and I lost all motivation at 95 sailing.I just want a new league to come out.
I’m not trans though
>waste your life clicking on stupid shit and watching number go upFell for it once, never again.
>>729775851sailing was a mistake and ill probably end up coming back anyway
>>729776032>stop enjoying thingsamerican detected
>>729775851I am right now. Doing a farming run
literally ruined by retarded devs that started in 2020
WoW Classic Hardcore is the superior 20-25 year old MMO
>>729776032If you cant handle the grind, you're probably a loser who fails every exercise routine
>>729776470Wow feels like a race for endgame. Osrs feels like a living world
>>729776612Not the case on the hardcore servers, which you would know if you had played both WoW HC and OSRS. But you havent. Yet you gave your badly informed opinion anyway. Why would you do this?
I want to but I unsubbed, and I'm too poor to buy a bond
>>729776809wow hc is trash just like rs hcstreamer bait shit for idiots
Gave it a go, it's just not very good unfortunately. People rave about horizontal content and things not becoming irrelevant over time, but in reality 99% of everything in the game is irrelevant and people skip it via guides to skilling as fast as possible as the in game documentation for doing anything is non-existent.For number go up the runescape idle game melvor is frankly just a lot better.
>>729778015Do all the f2p quests with zero guide support and no grand exchangeSkilling that aims for 99 is boring, though rewarding1 - 40 skilling is rewarding I never liked the PvE high level dungeons PKing / PvP back in the day was good but it’s a bit stale now especially with no clan to rove the wilderness - it’s usually empty anyway beyond level 9 wildyThe questsThe only redeeming quality that has aged well (and the original 2003 - 2005 graphics)The storytelling in the quests and doing them without guides is where the game still shines
Having more fun in FFXIV, still on my free trial and 200 hours in. Probably the single perfect mmo ever created
I spent the last year I played doing farm runs and barbarian assault. skilling and slayer are fucking boring as hell, but damn I miss playing BA. most fun minigame of all time
>>729778015Just don't play "efficiently." I just skill whatever I want when I feel like it. It's a grinding marathon not a sprint. Of course if you just hate grinding you'll probably hate the game regardless
>>729778015>People rave about horizontal content and things not becoming irrelevant over timeyes, because it's true>but in reality 99% of everything in the game is irrelevant and people skip it via guides to skilling as fast as possible as the in game documentation for doing anything is non-existent.Both of these statements are false and at odds with eachother.
>>729775851>Play Troonscape
>>729778513>perfect2.5 second global cooldown that makes combat feel sluggish for a keyboard smashing MMOLets not forget about the patchwork system for zones>LOADSCREENWalk 15 seconds>LOADSCREENWalk 30 seconds>LOADSCREENWalk 20 seconds>LOADSCREENFar from perfecto
>>729778015>do thing to level up>unlock better thing>do that thing now instead>wow that thing i was doing before is now irrelevant
The game has been going downhill since 2018 because Jagex started to cater to ironmen and reddittroons, if you disagree you are dogshit in the game and probably cant even get sub 30 inferno
>>729775851It's not oldschool anymore so no.
>>729775851this game is controlled by redditors who dont even want to play the game and genuinely struggle with jadthings will only get worse
>>729779347lmao this casual retard fucks men in a gay way rather than pretending to be a woman, and likes the grand exchange.
>>729779506that doesn't make sense since they keep adding harder and harder content. If the game is made for casual retards, why is most new content added things they cannot do?It's okay to just admit you don't like the game without making up some imaginary reason.
>>729775851im playing it right now. happy new year
>>729778842lol none of those problems exist on xbox where I play so sounds like it’s a skill issue for you.
>>729779627i think im just upset about sailing being shit sorry i like doom and yama
>>729779770that's fair
i love sailingso much better having to sail everywhere instead of teleport
>>729780102theres nowhere worth sailing to anywaygot my quest cape back and havent touched sailing since
>>729780192i keep getting frost dragon tasks which requires me to sail like 20 tiles
>>729779006not entirely truegenerally whatever you unlock at level 40 tends to be the best xp you just have to do autistic tick manipulation to make it so
>>729776032based, I hope one day MMO players will see the light one day and realize the genre is irredeemably shit and move on to real games
Osrs was fun u til I realized it was literally a reddit game dictated by literal redditors and the mods literally use reddit as the main communication platform. It is literally the most reddit game there is I will never play again
>>729778015this, they're also slowly but surely making more and more things irrelevant but you can't mention that part otherwise you'll get a lot of seething replies trying to justify that actually this one time or another it's totally okay because of X or Y bullshit reason
>>729780478Other games just don’t give the same satisfaction as mmos. If you don’t get it you just don’t get it. MMOs feel alive, they inherently have a living soul to them that single player games dont. If you don’t get it you just don’t get it and will probably never get it
I unfortunately got back into it because I had the opportunity to learn raids with a friend of mine. Right now I'm just skilling a bunch between TOA runs. Eventually I hope to hit up COX and TOB, but I really wanna do the Colosseum first. It looks really fun.
>>729780606but I do get it anon, I got it for years, that shit was like crack cocaine, playing for many hours a day, slowly but surely making progress, but once you quit it all hits like a truck, like wtf was even the point, it's just artificially extended shit content to fill time
>>729780771The point isn’t the grind, the grind is a vehicle for experiencing a shared virtual world you can meet others in and lose yourself in and make memories with other people and experience vivid imaginatory escapism
>>729780903but a huge chunk of players want the "solo MMO" type of experience, it feels like that sort of thing is actively being eroded over time
Yo this gameplay is FIRE
>>729781040You will never understand
>>729775851playing the superior lost city 2004scape instead
>>729781040>2004 content isn't mechanically complexwaow
>>729778676Good goy, delay your progress so you pay the subscription cost longer
>>729781339Osu with gear and prayer switching is too difficult and scares people away.
>>729781384not that guy but do you think people just play the game to max and then quit? people find all sorts of goals to chase regardless of whether they play the game efficiently, there's not exactly a finish line
how many hours do you have logged, anon?
>>729780273Do you even has fairy rings
>>729782328da fuqnever noticed it lol
>>729775851I am, just got my rune boots, can finally throw my climbing boots away
>>729781950about 1k hrs
>>729775851OSRS unkino'd my kino. I'd honestly rather play 2012 runescape right before and squeal of fortune than whatever nu-scape is
>>729782713insane take
What are you grinding bros? I'm doing Baslisk Knights for slayer
>>729782773I'm generically grinding slayer, just hit lv81I want that fucking whip man
>>729782773almost maxed my uim, working on doom for a lil pve break
>>729782773Sulliuscep because I hate woodcutting and the free prayer xp is nice with all the fossils I've been stacking up. How weird is it that I have 99 Slayer but 82 Woodcutting?
it really isnt nobody is playing slow as molasses osrs in 2026. its just not happening. i think most people cant even conceptualize how slow this game actually is. if you have ANY RESPECT for yourself you will pick RS3. it's like 10x faster. JUST GRIND THE CLICKER GAME FOREVER BRO IT'S SO FUN TRUST ME BRO IT'S FUN.it's not fun though. and you're constantly competing with bots in most areas so your xp is going down drastically. this game is for people who hate themselves.
>>729782773Clogging minigames.
peak runescape was logging in before school to try to start the dragon quest but there was a 100 person long line since only one person could talk to the npc at a time
>>729783063>nobody is playing
>>729783164if only you had the ability to understand how much of that is bots and not real people...
>>729782773I want my god damn blowpipe
>>729783196Even if we say 50% of that number is bots, that's still over 75k people playing.
>>729782773cox solos for fun and rigourcurrently putting off a hydra task because that boss puts me to sleep
>>729783232Now you have to figure out how much of that 75k is alts. Also, I know RS3 is basically a dead game, but if you treat it as a singleplayer game with social elements its not half bad.
>>729783314I genuinely cannot stand RS3's dogshit aesthetics and UI. Not to mention I don't want to have to relearn how to play the game. I like my outdated 2007 pre-EOC mechanics. Not to mention I don't want to be nagged to buy their retarded microtransaction bullshit.>just play an iron manI don't want to.
>>729783427if osrs didnt add all this new dumb bullshit to the game i could tolerate the slowness. but noooo i gotta deal with dogshit zeah and sailing tainting the game. it's not for me and i have accepted that
>>729783487You could just... not do that stuff? I haven't even touched sailing and I'm enjoying myself doing other shit. Raids, skilling, slayer, mini games, bossing, trolling bank standers, you just gotta find your fun.
I haven't played in like 5 months and my yearly subscription is supposed to renew in a few days I should probably cancel that
>>729783556jesus christ its the reddit argument with the question mark and everythingTHEY HAVE RUINED THE GAME BY FORCING STUFF I DONT LIKE INTO IT. JUST NOT THINKING ABOUT IT IS NOT AN ACTUAL SOLUTION WHICH IS WHY I SAID I WOULD RATHER JUST PLAY A 2009 SERVER
>>729783601>Id rather play a 2009 serverLol, good luck with that
>>729783601Ok have fun bro
>>729778474some of the PVE bosses are a good time once you learn them. I wouldn't say I'm autistic but I could do Vorkath for a few hours at a time just for fun. there's something satisfying about progressing your wealth through learned timing and skills. it feels like a rhythm gameI think I have 4000 vorkath kills. No pet, but I can't complain because I have bloodhound
>>7297836542009scape is a thing and exists and has 5x xp rates meaning i am objectively wasting less of my life on this than i would be on osrs
>>729783810>I wouldn't say I'm autistic>4000 vorkath kills
>>729783196When all the bots get exploded we still have daily peaks of 200k, people really overestimate bots
i just want pre eoc dungeoneeringscape
>>729783902this isnt actually true but it does feel nice to believe our own lies. someone is gonna be like bro what are you talking about? the truth...this game has more bots than even i realize.
>>729783902i love this game but come on nowtheyre fucking everywhere
>>729783832But like why are you doing it at all. You're saving 5x the time in the time waste to do what? Relive nostalgia?
>>7297839902009 is kino that's why
>spent 3 years making a dogshit skill nobody wanted that isnt even finished(jar with no display on launch, dragon items without unique models, last minute xp hotfixes) and got nerfed immediatelyno, not anymore jagex, you took 20 years of my life and now i'm fucking freeanyone know any good pservers though
>>729784019what's the endgame of 2009 is it still corp
>>729784102lost city for 2004 is pretty good. like 2004 as an era is obviously quite miserable but it will slowly go to 2006 and u can keep ur character.vidyascape for 2007 with no ge. literally the entire game as it was quite kino2009scape for 2009 but beware its still missing a lot of contentdarkan for 2012 but its missing even more content than 2009.
>>729784161also, i do NOT think there are any other servers than these that are worth playing. there is a random 2011scape server with 1x xp rates if you hate yourself for some reason.
got my first quiver on the last day of the yearfeels fantastic
>>729784161>>729784192I appreciate the advice, I'm kind of more looking for something more "modern" but more like one of those official leagues they had. I thought they were insanely fun but during the last one I quit because of that kike money grubbing survey about paying 50 dollars a month for character slots and customer service.I played on /v/scape for a couple years and quite liked it though, so few private servers keep quests and skilling (mostly) intact and it's a shame
>>729784316gz
>>729784335thanks anon, hope you have a good year
>>729783961They did a bot nuke a few months back, gotta remember it only takes like 200 bots to permacamp a non instanced boss on most of the worlds, 10k bots will make the game look infested but its actually a drop in the bucket compared to jimmy doing scurrius and billy doing titans
>>729775851I'd rather play Classic
I HATE WATER AGILITYI HATE WATER AGILITY
>>729784102At least members get a skill that's actually somewhat fun. All the other member skills fucking suck.
>>729783196That still makes it more popular than it's ever been. I swear every one of you subhuman retards has never played the game.
>>729783487>new stuff bad>new stuff good when it's terrible and in a terrible artstyle in a game 2000x more deadRS3 is a shit game and you're a shit person. You will go to hell for having shit taste.
>>729784890what do you mean more popular than it's ever been? runescape in 2010 was more popular than osrs has ever been.
>>729783601Sounds like a nonissue but I understand that as someone who has interest in osrs you're more likely to be on the spectrum and likely be afraid of change
>split between actually learning pvm and grinding CAs or maxing firsthelp, I'm at 2200 total now
>>729784934No, it wasn't. Full of bots and a dead game then. I know, because I botted it. 2010 was literally peak bot. And it had less players on average than the game does on average weekdays now.Christ you were just a 10 year old or some shit in 2010 weren't you?
>>729785001How the fuck are you 2200 and you haven't learned PVM?
>>729775851Keep your tranny parade game
>>729785001killing bosses is fun
>>729780606daggerfall feels more alive than shit like runescape or WoW
>>729785078I've done normal level raids but never tried inferno or colosseum
just gonna play rs3 fuck it. osrs is just so fucking boring bro idk how people play it
>>729785078a shocking amount of people just play this game like cookie clicker and i dont think they should be allowed to vote
>>729785078nothing about maxing takes skill, it only takes timethe amount of fire max capes you see on the max worlds is insane
>>729785157That's great, I'm sure you and the two other people playing that game will have a fun time.
>>729785271yes we will.also osrs is all bots and one day u will see that
>>729785816the last time I logged into RS3 (to get my 20 year cape) the entire population of the world was in the GE botting.
>>729784576For me, its salvaging
The early osrs experience to me is what turns me off>level up attack >either kill 10,000 goblins or do this quest but you need to have 50 smithing and this one item on the other side of the map first and you need to survive a level 48 bossOk I’ll just do some random quests>literally impossible to do without following wiki
>literally impossible to do without following wikiPoor bait
>>729785959filtered,, many such cases
>>729785976https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Ernest_the_Chicken
>>729786030I figured that out as an 11 year old. You're just a stupid person.
Got spooned a pharos sceptre on the iron within an hour this morning, feels pretty good, might just say fuck it and go for the 2nd one right away
>>729785959Just follow the optimal quest guide.
>>729784543The Classic trilogy is fun up through level 45 or so but the quests in early WoW are dead boring and don’t pull you in to the character quite as much as RS questing does2003scape quests > WoW questsI really don’t understand how they wrote such good quests in 03 to 05 RS
>>729786235>I really don’t understand how they wrote such good quests in 03 to 05 RSThis was the true peak era. They were pumping out content like crazy and hadn't ruined the visual cohesiveness yet and the devs still knew how to program.
>>729785959Learn to enjoy the challenge of questsIt’s so well deliveredHard as shitBut wowDoing it guide free feels AMAZING when/if you figure it outThat’s not a difficultly level of questing we see much these days
i dont know how autists make new accounts and do all the big quests AGAINi will NEVER fucking EVER do the monkey madness 2 docks again
>>729786452Been set up to the grandmasters on my iron for like 2 months now and I just can't find the will
>>729786514its not even worth it for ironmenoh boy now i can make a big ass crossbow...with very niche pvp usesoh boy now i can make...2% better jewelry with like 90 crafting and magic!at least on the main it lets you make some money off of slayer
>>729786601Mm2 specifically yeah, the only reason I want to do it for the seed pods for wildly teleport
>>729786452it actually gets less bad the more you do it. Or you get more and more mindbroken. My account got hacked (had 2fa but not a jagex account, there's definitely some exploit) and had to redo everything. Said I'd never do it again. Here I am, took me like 1/100th the time to get back to where I was.
I'm thinking about starting RS3.
>>729786601>quest cape requirement>ring that makes zulrah significantly less aids>only necklace in the game to directly give +range strength>formerly bis melee and mage jewellery both of which can be upgraded to bisa two hour quest really isnt that bad if you actually want to progress your accountplus demonic gorillas are fun
>>729787063half the time you get a new "bis" melee upgrade it doesnt even give you a max hitshitty fucking system
oh dont mind me just playing the best in slot version
>>729787508ew
>>729775851When did they start calling it Old School?
>>729787558When they re-released the Old School version of the game. 2013.
>>729787585>call it old school>slowly integrate all nurs content except for eoc
>>729787925There is absolutely no nurs content in osrs.
>>729787558“Old School”You just know some retarded Gen. X’r made that suggestion
>>729786840u actually should. i am very nostalgic for 2009-2012 rs but when u get right down to it older runescape is just BORINGit's for a very niche audience. osrs is popular? so what. it's still boringcome to the dark side. come to rs3
>>729788128God imagine being born with autism, but the kind that just makes you socially inept and mentally retarded, not the good kind.That's rough dude.
>>729775916>>729775958>>729776237>playLmao>>729775970tippiebippie
>>729788128I don't think osrs is boring, I'm just not fond of the direction the game is going and after having reached pretty much all my goals (besides maxing (not touching sailing)) I want to try something different.
>>729786452I did MM2 for the first time last week and I have no idea how any other new quests passed polls. That sucked almost as bad as Ratcatchers. SotE was cool minus the mirror part
>>729775851Im not trans.
>>729787508>1921x1079the absolute state of the goonscape community
>playing anti gowerian garbageno thanksi already play the superior game
>>729788915actually not half bad but the nerve to charge for membership already is insane. the game is a literal demo
>>729788915I love how brighter shores showed that gower is actually an idiot that has no clue what he's doing and that runescape was a fluke rather than a product of intelligent design
>>729788956It's a bit hard to make a good game when he's actively trying to make not runescape instead of reusing/embracing the good parts of RS
>>729775851Every other year or so I play it for around a week but once the nostalgic novelty wears off the game is simply not that good or fun, and even I value my limited time on this earth too much to grind anything to 99.
Sorry I don't play tick manip based autism where you need to consider exploiting food eating, prayer flicking, and other 1 shot trash gameplay. I played until I got my fire cape a few quests short of the quest cape and didn't want to autistically prayer flick and micromanage a shitty tiny inventory with repetitive Foxcon-tier gameplay on the skilling side. YOU play Velious era Everquest. Runescape is a nostagiabrained game for fucking retards with low browser based partialism consuming expectations. There are a million better mmos from Conquer online to even Maple story if you want repetitive anti-QOL. FUCK Runescape. Everything was a chore from fairy rings to every single quest. The only fun thing was slayer and all the gear was devalued by bots. What a stupid fucking game.
runescape 3 solves that u can max on a fresh acc in under a year even on ironman its kino af
>>729789375>The only fun thing was slayerbro i think ur brain is broken, slayer fucking sucks
>>729789483Doesn't really matter when the game starts when you're maxed
>>729788357What puts you off sailing so hard
>>729789483I know I'm cherrypicking but still.
>>729775851>Mod North so based for telling the retarded mods to work on actual content the reddit trannies are still seething to this daymaybe I should go back
>>729775851Only addicted mentally ill gamblers still play that game. Playing League and Grid made me realize just how ass endgame is.>Have to perfectly tick-click on everything to stay alive>Fucking predicting platform clicking>ONE mistake and you're fucking dead>Have to genuine read up every single mechanic and memorize because otherwise there's no fucking point in it>Venezuelans and Botters ruined all the other skills and the economy. PvP and wilderness is pointless because of them so thats half the content gone.>70% of skills are useless thanks to them and the ones that arent like Agility and Slayer are absolute ass to train>Sailing is a memeThe only point to ever play this time waster is by doing it at work
>>729776097>>729776576Textbook addict speech>>729780478MMO players are genuine hopeless as yo can see. Just look how addicted the WoW streamers are. They atleast have the excuse of getting paid but for every streamer there's 100 actual players doing it for no good reason.If MMOs still had their actual social aspect like they had in the early 2000 I could understand but nowdays content isnt made for groups in mind and when they are it's designed in such a way that you dont have to ever talk to anyone.
>>729781339>2004 contentOSRS isnt designed with 2004 content anymore. They're unironically speeding things up and making you play it like a modern game. The result is a unfun mess
>>729792285>The only point to ever play this time waster is by doing it at workThere's no other way to play this and when I found out people actually waste their free time playing it I was shocked
>>729775851>PlayExcept you don't play it, you let the game play items on a second monitor because OSRSfags are allergic to interactive gameplay.
>>729792607>allergic to interactive gameplayand not having their screen full of map markers. Say about RS3 what you want but their bosses and endgames are actually entertaining.
>>729792702What are RS3 bosses really like? The only two I managed to reach before quitting after realizing I needed to get certain boring as fuck skills to get a free healing upgrade to excalibur were Arch Glacor which felt like a damage race on hard mode(the ice prison move) and the queen black dragon which I despised the flame wave attack of.
Necromancy in RS3 should've been locked behind all the quests leading up to the fort questline.
Why are there no good osrs reaction images
>>729793418>NecromancyDidn't they make it so the only decent way to level it up is with Rituals? What the fuck were they thinking.
>>729793663
>>729793418Necromancy in runescape should have never happened.
>>729792285the pvp is also just so fucking bursty these daysthey had to add anglers in so you can eat to 120 before the fight and you still get rocked for 110 damage in the same tick
I am, right now I'm sitting at amethyst chiseling arrowheads to sure up the last couple mil I need for bond sustain. I usually make 15m in the first week, then go do other account progression in the second. I'm up to like base 60s in most stats, I gotta work on my combat stats though, I'm at base 70s in those and can't do much in the way of bossing which is the only way to make serious money anymore. I'm thinking of learning to PK through last man standing, I know it's mostly bots but I figure it's still practice switching and stuff that I don't feel like I can get without being in a scenario.Done a lot of quests, but still not at quest cape obviously, think I'm gonna try to tackle dragon slayer 2 maybe not this bond, but the one after, and dedicate this bond to catching the rest of the reqs I need (magic and dream mentor)
>>729795681the amount of work you put towards a bond would be better spent just playing the account you want to play and using not even an hour of your paycheck to enable the accountyou do have a job right?
>>729796351nope
>>729796492of course not
>>729796514why does it bother you how I play?
>>729795681>bonddont bother. Youre going to burn out fast and it's only 14 days. You cant compete with the venezuelans.
Why is this game so shit yet so addictive?
>>729798291Purely nostalgia. Plus I guess there isnt another game like it. I cant think of another game that you can passively farm at work
