Massive drama from the runescape community. Jagex has announced that after finally removing MTX from Runescape after 15 years, there will be FRESH servers in celebration. All old "Veteran" accounts will now be quarantined to their own servers and economy, similar to POE Standard League. This happened yesterday and the playerbase is fucking furious. Even the discord mods are against it.
gaped and raped by big daddy jagex
So were these microtransactions P2W in literally any way?
If they actually mattered in any significant way Jagex wouldn't have done this. They're just a minority.
>>749040354yeah. It was gacha slot machines that gave you experience lamps. Here's the first big video about it from back in the day.https://youtu.be/KjtZGjI29Qc?si=9d7hz4zQmLInd8dQYou could do this until like 2024 I think?
>>749039705Why is it that every time I hear anything about Runescape it's about how Jagex is desperately trying to kill it and the audience is rioting over it?
I just got this e-mail from Jagex, should I be worried?
>>749040450>Jamflex wouldn't do something stupid and short sighted that pissed off the majority of players
Jagex literally doesn't care about anyone that supported them over the last 25 years. They think they can replace everyone with new players.
>>749039705why are they even supporting company that doesn't care about them?
>Mod North is a big meanie to fags >:(Based, hope he deletes all your shitty accounts
>>749039705can not wait for reignited so excited, fuck the faggots crying about it
This has been LONG overdue, the only people still playing RS3 are the people who have been playing for 20 years and it's keeping any new players from actually wanting to join.
>>749039705>Wasn't even the first 126>Wasn't even the first max>Just the most vocalWouldn't be surprised if he wasn't even the original zezima. Now there's tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of maxed players from them adding easy xp gains and p2w. No one should give a shit.
>>749040792if you retards had stop sucking up the slop a decade ago this never would have happened. Go back to standing in the bank at priff faggot, ill be playing on the non tainted pure servers
>>749039705omg its zezima
>>749041014starting rs3 with or without old accounts is the same problem as starting retail wow. There are so many systems to learn it is overwhelming.
MMOfags are so pathetic. No one cares that you wasted 20 years of your life on a single game.
>>749039705Anyone still playing this employment simulator after that long is of course going to be mad that they can no longer leverage their decades of hording. Same shit happened when the free lamps and shit got removed and they all had meltdowns they had to actually play the game.
>>749041071they still have bonds to buy gold with
>>749039715bro same shit happened to wow classic and all of its iterations, its calm, autists continued to play on dead servers, and everyone else moved on, whats the problem
Serves them right for playing a game made by perfidious albions
>>749040792>getting rid of the stale, old, boring and entitled player base>replacing them with the new, vibrant, reignited playersDiversity is our greatest strength!Please, continue seething, it is really funny to me :)
>>749039942This mod North seems like a based fellow
>>749039705Honestly it's a shitty situation to be in all around. Like it or not, comparison is important, it's basically impossible to not compare yourself to the people around you, we're hardwired to do it constantly. RS3 has a massive issue in that even though TH has been removed, the impact is still felt, and will be felt, for probably a decade to come. New players are turned away by the idea that the people already playing the game achieved what they achieved in an 'unfair' way. It's not even a rational response necessarily, it's just a bad vibe that will put people off.I understand what they're trying to do. They see the existing RS3 playerbase as worth sacrificing for potential future new players. I can't even say they're wrong to do it that way. The existing RS3 playerbase are so maxbrained that developing new non-bis content for them is virtually impossible, and if a game only gets new endgame content, then it just puts new players off even more.This is ultimately just a terrible consequence of 17 years of poor decision making come home to roost.Meanwhile OSRS is just chilling lmao our most anticipated release got moved forward and we have a hefty as fuck content pipeline on the way
>>749041327that hasn't been confirmed but either way bonds are a far cry from keys, lamps, stars, double exp weeks (four of them a year), Yak Tracks, free proteans, spins from quests, Beach event, death touched darts, free boss armor. and thats not even addressing the fucked economy
Merging reignited is not off the table
>>749039705I don't get the issue, it's not like anyone's character is getting deleted
>>749039705I'll translate>I wasted the past 5-15 years on this shit game and now I'm mad that it got me nothingClassic MMOshit
i don't often tell people this like but i like girls who smoke cigarettes and i really want a girl to suck my cock while she smokes a cigarette
>>749041592If RS3 dies because of this they're going to heavily monetize OSRS, you know?
>>749041682New accounts can't interact with old accounts. If the new system succeeds, old account are dead. If the new system fails, the established player base was pissed of for nothing. It's a huge gamble, where the winning scenario involves tossing all current players in the trash.
>>749039705QRD? I've never played RunEscape, what's bad about new servers?
>>749041821>New accounts can't interact with old accountsSo? Nothing stops them from playing their characters, and isn't the game mostly singleplayer anyway?
>>749041335I'll tell you. You know how POE has standard and league going on? Like, after 4 months all the new items and gold get pushed there and everything starts over. Well, they're making every account pre December 2026 a standard account. Except the league will never be folded into standard. It makes no sense.
>>749041879Every account made before the new reignited release is now marked as juden. New players can't trade with them or do group content like bossing with them. New players also have their own separate grand exchange.
>>749039705TIME TO GRIND GOY
>>749041592Tbh if they had a merge date this would be totally fine. Fresh start focusing on trying to get first 99's seems like a pretty cool idea. This is just the most retarded way of doing it since it fucks over the people who didnt buy shit and the people who made new accounts or came back earlier this year when mtx was removed
>>749041879nothing, its a good thing and you should play in december because its a new mmo with 25 years of content on day one of release with everyone starting at the same time
>>749041926If the new accounts become the main way to play the game the old economy dries up. It would be massively detrimental to existing mains.There's lots of solo content, but there's also lots of endgame content that requires teams. Finding teams is already an issue, it'd be worse if they split the playerbase.
>>749041796They can't, the bean counters have their balls in a vice because the OSRS devs are being very proactive about putting out MTX surveys that they KNOW will be returned with essentially 'lol fuck off' as every response.Anytime the corpo retards trot out their moronic schemes they get barraged with data points that tell them to sit down and shut the fuck up. You think they haven't been trying to do that ever since OSRS got released? You think that they've been nobly restraining themselves all these years? Are you seriously that fucking naïve?
>>749039705Based zezima was always a fucking bitch, fuck Peter zezima, lynx titan and S U O M I are better
>corporation only cares about moneywow, what a truly shocking revelationI thought Reddit was "anti-establishment" and "anti-corporatist bs" and "fuck billionaires", you'd think they would've seen this coming, especially from Jagex and its $11 dollars per character policytruly a mistery how they keep falling for it
>>749040692for the same reason every time you hear about the stock market is about how it's going to crash with no survivorsyou don't hear about the times when it's earning money and working properly
>>749039705Why would a company ever be threatened by players who by their own admission are addicted to your game and will never stop playing?
>>749039705Warcraft won.
>>749041879it's just a separate game mode with a different economy and players can't play with non-reignited charactersthe problem is that the game is exactly the same thing otherwise, so in a year it'll be as if there's two exact same versions of the same game that is segregated for no reasonthey think people are going to grind up new accounts the exact same way so they can play with their friends, but their friends are just going to make normal accounts instead
>>749042486wasn't lynx titan a botter?
I don't see the issue. You literally get to keep all your shit and keep playing as if nothing changed? Who cares?
>>749043250If you are a new player which server are you going to join?
>>749043250does it really matter in a dead server
>>749043337The one that doesn't have a completely destroyed economy with old maxed out players crying?
>>749043449You answered your own question then retard
>>749043449it's the same game, the shit that just shits out money will still be in the gamethe economy will be equally fucked in half a year
>>749039705>the playerbaseOf Runescape 3. No one, including Jagex, cares what they think.
>>749043514Well yeah, I already said>I don't see the issue. You literally get to keep all your shit and keep playing as if nothing changed? Who cares?it was a rhetorical question in case you couldn't tell. I'm aware that only 1% of the playerbase gives a fuck and nobody should care about those faggots.
>>749039865veterans are all playing osrs though, where everyone started fresh.>>749040715Genuinely if you still play RS3, you deserve to get shit on and I feel no sympathy.
For me the bigger problem with RS3 is that they just announced RS4 going into development. That probably means RS3 may have 4-5 good years left in it. I guess thats still a fair amount of time, but its going to be a bloodbath when RS4 siphons everything away
>>749043703>Genuinely if you still play RS3, you deserve to get shit on and I feel no sympathy.Not that anon, but I'm curious why the hostility towards rs3 players. Why so much animosity over someone playing a game?
>>749043794They are also releasing this like three weeks after gta6 and a month after classic wow. I cant imagine its gonna get the long term traction they want simply because of the absolutely retarded timing
>>749041014I'm a new player who joined after they removed the MTX and started making the game better and I'm getting fucked for giving them a chance lol
>>749044196this is the group that definitely got fucked the most. Imagine being banished as a 'veteran' for less than a year of playing
>>749044196This. Started right after mtx got removed. Definitely not staying around if this goes through lol
history repeats
>>749041335It's as simple as this, I'm not even a Runescape player but I know this: Runescape is filled with the most autistic oldfags still alive. They've called out every bad decision they hated before it was implemented, and they were right every time whether intentionally or by forcing their hate. They're the only reason RS even exists nowadays, and every time Jagex has made a major decision without the community's support it's backfired on them. It's just an obvious pattern that anyone who isn't retarded or British can see.
>>749042591>especially from Jagex and its $11 dollars per character policyYou mean $15 dollars (plus tip)
>>749044368but it's not really the same, is it? RS3 will still get updates
>>749043919They've been eating shit for like 18 years now. The problem is, Jagex wants RS3 to no longer be a game about eating shit. The shit eaters are unhappy. I lack sympathy.Basically it boils down to>no you can't fix it! We like it being bad!oh okay so we'll have a separate game mode that fixes the game, and you can keep eating shit in peace>but if you do that everyone will play reignited! our game will die!And they're right. So Jagex has two options: ignore the RS3 players, or let the game stay bad and die.
I don’t really care but I only have two capes and I’m…130 combat I think? I’m still getting quarantined with the poop socks :(
>>749043919Oldschool fags have a superiority complex and think their game has "integrity" even though you can pay real money for gold and buy 99s in their game too
>>749044196>>749044356We got super jew'd but you both got turbo jew'd
they also just announced RS4who cares lol RS3 doesnt matterIt is already being replaced and OSRS is always going to be more popular than both.
>>749044637>oh okay so we'll have a separate game mode that fixes the game, and you can keep eating shit in peaceYou're so worked up about something you know nothing about
>>749044809>worked up aboutHow so? I'm pretty apathetic to the situation. It'd be cool if this works out and makes RS3 playable.>know nothing aboutNor do I care to. The opinions of RS3 players are genuinely worthless.
>>749044870Brown hands typed this post
>>749044419no way, is it fucking 15 per character now? holy shit
I hope they just fucking shut RS3 down when RS4 comes out. RS3 players are all like furries and ERPers and shit. I don't understand why they even keep the servers on, OSRS generates 10x more income.
>>749045028Thanks for letting me know, but I figured. No white people play RS3 after all.
>>749045135why would RS4 succeed this is like the worst possible time to release MMORPGs
What's the point in making everyone start from scratch when all of the veterans are just going to speedrun what they know is the fastest way to get back to what they were doing before, if they could be fucking arsed to do so in the first place?
>>749045889a fresh start with an economy that wasn't skullfucked by nearly two decades of microtransactions for starters. Further the veterans have no idea how to speedrun the game, that's why they're whining so much.
>>749045889Yeah, and there are so many avenues to start dumping tier 90+ equipment into the economy within days like heists or rasial. New players have no hope.
>>749046108>New players have no hope.It's not like it's a PVP game, that doesn't matter.
>>749046282well jagex is acting like everyone will be on equal footing for hiscores, equipments grinds, world firsts. when in reality it's just gonna be sweats that have been playing for 20 years that get everything.
The main reason old players don't want to wipe is because they don't give a single fuck about the gameplay loop, they just want to do their gay shit.
>>749046585Sweats that play for 20 years either don't start new accounts, or play OSRS so they don't know RS3.
>>749046648What's the point when all you'd be doing is rushing your way through shit content you don't want to have to re-run so you can just go back to spamming the same endgame bosses again?
>>749046715not how runescape works
>>749046026you do realise you get millions of gold handed to you for free at the gate of varrock? you can get hundreds of millions leveling thieving because it shits out gold
>>749046864cool, so?
>>749046770It is when they've basically done the equivalent of a full wipe and you're starting from scratch but you know where everything is and the most efficient way to progress
>>749046989But they don't know that. They know the endgame since they've been in it for for the last decade.
>>749046896so it means that the economy will be the same in about six months
>>749047036sounds like all they have to do is change that then
So how would the playerbase split actually affect you whiny faggots aside from "devaluing" your dragon's hoard of digital gold that you don't actually have any use for beyond seeing number go up?
>>749047618>how would further dividing a community that already has countless problems with community divides be a problem to anyone?
>>749047885Answer the question.
>>749044368Not even remotely the same classic was canned because of a game breaking mechanic that couldn't be fixed because of how player ids where baked into the system.
>>749047918I did, you just didn't like the answer so now you're being intentionally obtuse.
>>749039705You cannot trust your most diehard players on anything regarding changes to any online game. They are too close to it on a personal level to se any possible business or retention positives. To an mmo lifer everything is a solved equation and they simply cannot remember or understand how the game looks or functions without that knowledge and experience.
>>749039705ngl I always hated the idea of "leagues" and "seasonal" servers and game modes in genres like ARPGs and MMOs. It completely killed my interest in ARPGs for me. It's sad to see this same Seasonal Model also Infect MMOs. It completely defeats the purpose of a MMO to have a bunch of different versions of the game and account types. Ironman was already the stupidest shit to add to a MMO.
>>749047618Population
>>749048047fortunately your opinion doesn't matter and you are vastly outnumbered
i suppose we're just forgetting that a lot of the runescape addicts also made rs3 ironmen accounts which involved having to start from scratch and work out the most optimal ways to move forwardas though they won't just apply that knowledge again but this time they can actually trade and otherwise re-decimate the economy as a result
>>749045070UK economy is on its arse we have the highest costing electricity of the developed world literally 4X the cost of the USA I'm amazed they haven't set up shop elsewhere.
I don't play this shit but what are they supposed to do? If the game had MTX you can't have those on the same server as people who didn't, that's retarded
>>749048105Yah, unfortunately the FOMO brainrotted masses out number everyone.
>>749048228You have to remember the sort of people who pay for rmt's in online games are mentally ill. The whole point of them was to target habit forming personalities the same way casino machine designers do. These goys put their money down to lord it over the poors and now they cannot lord it over the neo poors which reminds them how worthless all that pissed away money is and they are having a melty about it.
>>749048047Autistic people typically have trouble with change and understanding that other people can have different preferences than them.
I have succesfully inserted the word fresh into the runescape discord hivemind. Everyone is calling reignited fresh now. bwahahahaha
>>749048678go back
>>749048360except that ironmen never had access to that anyway
>>749040354yes retard
>>749048047Seasons in PoE are the best thing in it, it's the reason people keep coming back. Only a few autists care about standard in that game. Total economy reset is great for player count
jesus people will complain about anything won't they?runescape 3 was already a dying/dead game. doing literally anything is welcome at this point.
>>749044368In 2003 Andrew Gower said pic-rel in a blog post.That turned out to be huge fucking horseshit long before Classic shut down.Hopefully all versions of RuneScape and Jagex go up in flames ASAP.
14.99+tip per account
>>749047618>"we need new players to help 'rejuvenate' the game">funnel all players into a completed isolated new economy>prevent new players from doing anything meaningful with old players>old players (anyone who has ever played the game before, whether that was 20 years ago or last week) need to pay $14.99 plus tip for a new account subscription to participate"Reignited" is functionally as if they decided all new players were going to be part of one big Group Ironman circlejerk and that should make it immediately obvious what a bad idea this is
>>749039705i'm quitting after 20 years.my progress, logs, achievements all thrown in the trash by jagex. what a fucking retarded company.
>>749039705tl;dr? This might get me playing OSRS again.
>>749050496this has nothing to do with OSRS.They're basically doing a fresh start mode for RS3, because the game is bad.
>>749050496osrs is raped and they want you to pay as much as a wow subscription to play a single character
>>749050627makes sense, osrs is a better game than wow
i am simultaneously on board with reignited and against it. splitting the community is objectively a bad thing and there's really just no getting around it. it's the worst thing you can do to an mmo. however i will admit the runescape 3 community is massively hypocritical. nobody bats an eye when they run the seasonal leagues that take basically the entire runescape 3 playerbase away.fuck redditors they don't even know what they want. t. leagues hater
>>749050310So why would any of these potential players show up to "rejuvenate" the existing game that they already aren't playing?
>>749048228>If the game had MTX you can't have those on the same server as people who didn't, that's retardedGenuinely what does it matter to youIf some complete degenerate forked over $500 to lamp 99 Firemaking in RS3 seven years ago, how does that affect you on your account playing the game now?Runescape is not a competitive game and to whatever extent you might care about getting 50,000th place on the hiscores you're never going to compete nolife autists playing the game for 40 hours straightThere are still microtransactions in both games, you can still buy gold with real money. Getting 99 Prayer in Old School costs about 8 bonds. But for some reason nobody questions the "integrity" of that
good time to move on to guild wars 3 when it releases. i wouldnt be surprised if jagex also tries to fuck up osrs in the future. when rs3 completely dies, jamflex will try to squeeze osrs one way or another.
>>749050979mmorpgs completely dying does happen but rs3 will not shut down for the foreseeable future. it will have servers online until osrs shuts down. so forever basically.and that's just the truth. people still play wizard101.
>>749050758leagues have a known end date, are on the same subscription and you get cosmetics for your main account from it. reignited says fuck all that pay us even more for the pleasure of bricking your now unusable main account
>>749051097my main account is on osrs though?
i honestly have no idea how people play osrs. just watch this shit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaAxFea9br8bro is playing inventory tetris with millions of items he will never use and have to manually high alch or just drop because i think in terms of efficiency they dont even alch anymore because bosses drop so much raw gp but of course osrs can never have actual quality of life like rs3 does because it's "old school" but it's okay because they get their quality of life from plugins which totally aren't cheating by the way they are optional. playing the game is also optional but they don't mention that argument do they
I choose to believe that most of this thread is just shitposters and that one sperg that miserable still plays RS3 complaining. No one actually cares about RS3.
>>749051326>guy who basically can't use GP doesn't care about GPshocking
>>749051356the sperg said he quit rs3 and u should probably believe him
>nooooo you should give me special treatment and let me continue being a higher more respected rank because I let a bot click trees for me for 20 years!!!!!!
>>749051603le funny bad faith strawman :)
>>749051669>I can't argue against your point so I'll say it's bad faith
>>749051804epic trolling :D
>>749051942what about that is trolling? Everyone knows EVERYBODY botted around EOC.
>remove mtx using a vote >poors all vote against mtx>everyone gets punished without a voteThanks poors!!
>>749039705they had to remove mtx because of laws and the game is basically deadthis is their way of salvaging those decades of work and squeezing some profit out of itsorry but if you kept playing that slop its on you
>>749052062>the lobotomite screams in pain as his dommy mommy won't findom him anymore
>>749039705cool, call me when they add character slots bye
>>749052062the mtx vote was just preformativenew upcoming UK laws were going to fuck jagex in the ass
>>749051942>he's now moved on to troll accusationsYour next move is to start rolling through the list of overused buzzwords. This nontroversy is just lifeless runescape faggots crying over not being given special treatment.
>>749050758It's extra retarded because all these cocksuckers used and abused>Squeal of Fortune rewards>Treasure Hunter rewards>Double XP weekendswhile they were available for the last twenty years. Now Jagex wants to clear the record and reboot mainscape without the cancer and every Tom, Dick, and Harry has a problem with starting over legit? Fuck you and the unicorn you rode in on.
>>749052250i mean you're 100% correct. mtx killed the game and the only way rs3 was even playable for the past decade is as an ironman. fuck it just full send reignited. let all the people who don't actually like playing the game quit.
>>749052368>>749052250>mtx killed the gameRunescape has always been technically a singleplayer gameMtx didn't hurt shit
>>749052520there are objectively multiplayer elements even if the game is largely singleplayer.
ITT: the one motherfucker dumb enough to still be playing RS3 screaming at a brick wallIf anyone were ever to start a new character on RS3 why would they want to look at your disgusting e-dater paedophile pay to win account for even one second?This is a good thing but it won't save your shit game
>playing dragonwilds>man i should runescape again>last login 6 years ago>treasure hunter removed>all my mtx shit getting deleted>well that kind of sucks>now thisAre they retarded?
>>749052682you are a faggot and you got owned, thanks for the dragonwilds money!
>>749052682why are you sad about p2w shit being removed unless you're a faggot?
>>749052979Because he's an RS3 player.
Based now I can finally play RunEscape, but only if it's on PS5.
>>749052979Becsuse you got tons of it for free
>>749047548Meanwhile: Picrel was on stream. Made me uncomfortable watching it irl.
>>749052979>why are you complaining about having items removed from you
>>749054065why were you whaling? Freak.
>>749039705People are outraged because of their 20+ year old accounts but the fact of the matter is that fresh servers are needed. The RS3 economy is fucked and years of MTX have made most people's 99s/120s/200ms basically cheated in anyway. I get the anger about it though, and I personally think they should broaden the use of that Well of Goodwill thing. Let people remove experience and extremely valuable items from their account for some kind of FOMO incentive.
>>749054105See >>749053629I had like 10? Years of free shit built up
>>749054303oh, so use it. What are you even whining about?
>>749054303it was free, it was never yours to begin with, they could take it away from you if they wanted, because you never paid for it
>>749054495they haven't even taken anything away. You just can't spend more money on mtx. Anon is larping, he's actually a whale pissed he can't be findom'd anymore.
>>749039705they aren't quarantining olds they running both on the same server, like iron man except unlike ironman you can't boss with the reignite players, or trade or do anything with them. It is segregation on the same server. Unlike iron man you can't decide to do a boss.
>>749053975i couldn't tell if she had poorly fitted veneers in, or if it was just the bri'ish genes.Her high-school stage-play routine was ruined by the peanut-butter mouth talking
>>749054363>>749054836I have like two weeks to spend it allBasically impossibleAlso its still stupid even if i had a small amountMtx didn't hurt anyone
>>749041335wow and soundscape are not the same. in wow you swap character to the new meta or a run. in runescape you play one character. only people with meme specific pure builds reload and they only train some skills.not everyone want to be an ironman, not able to trade with other or use the marketplace. but you can still do content with them.
>>749053975like a fallout ghoul wearing a skinsuit
>>749054281Mtx just reduced the grind needed for 99sYou would get them either way. So hardly cheated
>>749055117>doing something several times as fast isn't cheating
Why does jagex always make the wrong decisions?
>>749054954you have until 2027. For microtransactions that stopped sale (and you stopped getting freebies) in january. If you had actually been saving up rewards (most of which can't be banked) you'd be all out by now. No, your story is a lie.You are a whale, mad you can't swipe. Get fucked retard.
>>749055179>you have until 2027.NopeIts this month nowThey brought it forward
reignited is gonna be fomo, sweats will ruining it eventually making the whole restarting pointless.
>>749055171Fresh start RS3 worlds is not the wrong decision. Announcing it alongside its replacement MMO was however.You never do that kind of thing unless you have a beta for players to play the following week/month
>>749055223that's awesome, how much money did you lose
>>749054954>Mtx didn't hurt anyoneits not a single player game retardthe entire reason people play multiplayer games (outside of fucking around with friends) is to have the social achievement aspectnobody will have any sympathy for you plugging into the skinnerbox you hooked up to your walled when the entire medium has been screaming to get rid of it for more a decade. go crawl into some gacha shithole where you belongthis post literally changed my mind on fresh start worlds. rs3 cannot be saved. reignited is necessary
>>749055340>Fresh start RS3 worlds is not the wrong decision.>piss off all your loyal veteran playersNo it clearly is the wrong decison
>>749055379Runescape is essentially a singleplayer game
>>749048126That's because they politically support the dildo fucking them in the ass unlubed. Their guys are in charge, so they'd rather stay in Ingerland rather than relocate 5 hours away to Ireland. Ireland is a tax haven and has -- comparatively -- cheaper energy so they'd be able to reduce operating costs substantially. But why do that when they can charge paypiggies 3x what they were paying in 2006?It's the same for every company that still insists on being HQ'd in Canada, Sydney, California, Melbourne, Illinois, or New York. They simply enjoy getting gaped. Simple as.
>>749039705Jagex making bad decisions is normal. This can only go wrong and could be the end of RS3 entirely. Even more players will move to OSRS
>>749055430please look at the kinds of veterans its pissing off >>749054954by simply existing they create a miasma surrounding rs3 that makes it impossible to enjoy because you're sharing it with the T-posing giant glowing rainbow misty faggots and people who spent 10k to max their account
>>749055430>>piss off all your loyal veteran playersMMO players are retards who struggle to think beyond 1st order. Cleaning up RS3 is useless if the current world is already fucked. The only logical thing is a fresh start world that can actually benefit from the changes.
>>749055628They will just do that again but with rmt
anyone still playing run escape in 2026 should be stripped of all rights and put into an asylum
How much would it hurt the Venezuelan people if runescape died?
>>749055738and get banned for itjust fuckingPLAYTHEGAMEwhy is it so hard for stupid niggers to PLAY THE GAMETHEGAME
Just logged into OSRS for the first time in six monthsI've got about 5m cash, most of the Hard diaries done and all quests except the GMs and the ones they released this yearWhat should I focus on?
>>749056514getting base 70s in your skills
>>749056514finishing quests.
>>749056514>What should I focus on?quit, because in 10 years your account will be considered tainted, because people can buy best in slot gear for combat and skills with bonds, so jagex will introduce osrs reignited
>>749039705It's almost like you're not supposed to play the same online game for 15 years or something and develop as a person.
>>749056514Quest requirements, quest, slayer
>>749056514you should kill yourselfthese questions are always fucking retardedit is the categorical definition of "reddit bot posting"pick a goal and work towards it. if you dont know how check the wiki. if the wiki doesnt tell you then it probably doesnt exist
nobody cares about rs3. i will come back to runescape but im not sure when.
>>749056514Quests retard
>>749057857its been dead for 14 years but (You) still wont move on
Wait, I can finally play the whole game without paying? No more, "Pay the subscription to use this shortcut or take half an hour walking around this flimsy stick wall"?
>>749057857gz
>>749039705get fucked paypiggy pay to win dorks
>>749052250they didn't update mining for 15 years. Agility is still being reworked. Of fucking course we all needed double xp and daily/quest lamps. Skilling was always slow as fuck if you weren't a gold buyer. Getting through midgame is really hard when you can't farm gold and you need to train.
>>749058105wtf I love RS3 now
>>749039705man im glad i never got into any form of runescape
To be honest you hit a point in life where you just don't care about complaining. I enjoy the fundamentals of RuneScape. I will gladly play OSRS, RS3, and RS4. And preservation servers.
>>749059110you missed out on chroniclelegitimately one of the most unique and not shit digital card games there ever was
>>749059082I got something for her to devour
I would be less upset if they brought back treasure hunter.
>>749058894>Of fucking course we all needed double xp and daily/quest lamps
>>749059146You must be 32+ because I'm exactly the same way, if I don't like something I just go to another game and repeat. I watch for updates and news. Eventually things get reverted/tweaked/better/or unfortunately worse. PoE2 has a bad league launch? Shit I'll find something else to play then I guess.>10gb patch with QOL fixes>Suddenly one of the most well received leaguesWow cool!>Still don't like the league mechanicWell fuck, oh well, back to watching mad men or something.
Are the quests for RS3 still any good? Only way I might consider checking it out
>>749058894skilling in rs3 is literally 2x to 10x faster than osrs. It doesn't take that long to level.
>>749059993skilling pre high level is honestly around the same rate (sometimes slower, like firemaking) than osrsmost of the actually high rates are post 99, when the jump from 99 to 120 is 100m total exp or whatever
>>749039705>get placed in their own little retirement homebased
>>749039705I thought MMO players loved doing the same exact mundane shit for thousands of hours? Also they can just not start over.
I haven't played since probably 2019, but if they don't fix the fact that slayer is more efficient resource grinding than skilling in nearly every case, then it's all pointless
>>749060613thats not changing hahaha
bring back darkscape
>>749053975
>>749060846darkscape had so many problems i don't know where to begin
>>749060846meme modes are a plague that send jagex deeper into the cave of never fixing the game
>>749061286>>749061328idc i like meme modes. the deadman world on osrs is dead but imo it's still cool that it exists.
>>749060085No.
>NOOOOOO I SPENT ALL THIS MONEY ON MTX TO DAB ON POORS THEY SHOULDNT GET THEIR OWN SERVERthis is all i read from the """drama""""
>>749039705Damn not even blizzard is looking to do that to wow. These companies suck. That's why MMOs suck now.
>>749061537then you're probably autistic
>>749061556runescape is a singleplayer game so none of this matters
>>749061593>t.paypig
>>749061651got me broi spent a billion mobiums on runescape
aura
>>749039705sadly, and i know everyones gonna hate me for this, i said from the beginning "if you dont reset the entire fucking game im not playing"i dont give a fuck how legit you think your maxed account was when i played for like 1 day i got spammed with loot boxes and xp boosts and i didnt feel like my own gains were legitimate, so therefore nobody elses are, etiher.reset the game or fuck off. and they chose to reset the game.
>>749061771it's based but i'm starting to think they won't commit to this. there has been severe backlash. i'm in favor but i know most people aren't.
These are the kind of people you're dealing with by the way. WHO DOES THIS?!?!?
the players were right about evolution of combat(i don't even play runescape but ive seen vids about it)
>749061938>the dripwho IS this brown goddess?
>>749061974>actually bad combat is good???of all the complaints to levy, this one seems like the dumbest
>>749061897if jagex is reading this though, and theyre notim still not fucking playing rs3 even if they do thisi never bought a mtx and still felt like i was playing a baby game, so im not coming back even if they do thisso do whatever you want jamflex, idc. this is just the only move that would make me consider playing
>>749061938>Summoning 1>Div 1>Arch 1>Necro 1
>>749039715>Permanently divide playerbaseYou mean like subscription being 95% of the game and f2poor in their walled 5%
>>749061974>the players were right about evolution of combatthey weren't. But jagex simultaneously botched it.
>>749062025yes, it almost killed the game
>>749039705Wow... walling your player bases away from each other sure is a BRIGHT idea Jagex.
>>749062773>clean up runescape jagex!>NOOO NOT LIKE THAT you just can't win with retards
>>749062773the problem highlighted above is players join the game spend a day in it realize everyone bought their accounts and quit because its so blatantly obviously p2wthe whales see the game is dying and quit and new players dont come inthe only solution to appease everybody is to go fresh because then you get the players who dont want to buy their accounts and the whales have new players to show off to
>>749039705>company has a extremely dedicated older playerbase>decides that fucking them over is a good decisionwhat's the reasoning?
>>749063178the older playerbase is strangling a dying corpse jagex is trying to save
>>749063178because instead of rs3 mtx subsidizing osrs, osrs is subsidizing rs3 and people are buying bonds to play osrs instead of a sub to play rs3
>>749063178A fresh economy means more sub fees for months instead of everyone using bonds. It also means more bonds being bought.
>>749063308fresh isnt the long term goal though theyre trying to completely reset the game and older toons will be phased out
>>749062404I can trade and do free content with free players
>>749039705sounds poggers to mezezimas gotta figure it out and join the 2020's.
>>749060604RS3 players are a special kind of retarded. They've sunk so much $$ into their accounts with all of the p2w shit from the last decade plus that they don't want to give it up.
>>749063178because the game isn't growing, and everybody is at late end game shit so every update that doesn't cater to that is a waste of time and DoA.
>>749041335in wow its not hard to get to max level and start spamming raids/dungeonsin runescape getting a mid level account can take hundreds of hourstelling runescape players to reset is a very different thing
>>749057857what compels someone to do this?
>>749065831It just goes up as you use it
>>749065831sunken cost fallacy. If Jagex announced that the game was shutting down, this person would absolutely 100% have a nervous breakdown or some shit.
>>749065831same reason millennials are clamoring for the 4th fucking iteration of vanilla WoW with some minor changes. See: >>749066068
>>749063178those cows have already been milkedtime to attract new cows
>>749039705>the controversy is....a new server being openedso is this the only MMO that people have ever played?
>>749066208You are in no position to speak you disgusting zoomgroid
