Good for them. However, pay to win being removed is just not enough for me to play that game again.
There’s EOC which somehow makes for more boring combat than the old school combat.
But mostly, it’s just so incredibly overfilled with shiny, blinking crap. There is no “empty” places left, no where that just looks normal. Everywhere has fucking portals to other realms, pools of energy or wisps or whatever the fuck, or literal fucking gods just hanging out. It just feels so incredibly claustrophibic to play, like everything everywhere is trying to get your attention and placed as close as a horder’s stash. It’s like if ADHD was a video game perpetually on cocaine. Just walking around from town to town feels exhausting because of the amount of shit on your way.
Hmm, never thought about it that way. I tried it out again after years (started in Runescape Classic) and it felt a bit off to me. I think you captured the feeling logging in again gave me.
Crazy it took this long tbh. Looking at Old school should have been enough of an example. But Jagex in typical Jagex fashion cant do anything and requires the community to stop the game driving off a cliff.
(Yes I am Jagex biggest hater)

It might not be that crazy - the poll here is only for Treasure Hunter which is a lootbox, not all MTX in general. “”“Coincidentally”“”, EU is about to introduce regulations that would essentially ban or limit lootboxes in video games.
If you asked me, I’d say it’s just a way for Jagex to fix an upcoming legal issue and get positive PR for doing so. With this poll, there’s also a proposal to add in a way to buy bonus exp directly for real cash, albeit with a cap.
Link to the poll please.
If I’m not mistaken, the voting are done ingame.
Awesome “democracy”. If you somehow miss the poll or no longer care about the game, you lack of Yes vote will be automatically treated as No vote.
It’s not meant to be a democratic poll, but rather a PR stunt.
They did this kind of a poll in 2012 after they fucked their game up with Evolution of Combat update and most people quit as a result, but then they decided to make a vote if they wanted old school servers back which blew up on all the corners of the internet and it was the most talked about thing.
This poll works in almost exactly the same way and their goal is for RS3 to gain new players. They know 100k votes will be easily met given how there’s around the same amount of RS3 players and OSRS players will act as “cavalry” that’ll come into aid due to social media’s call to actions, they’re just hoping it’d create enough buzz for people to pick up that version of the game again or people to learn about the game through media. The poll had no chance to fail.
If you don’t care enough about the game to participate in the vote, why the hell should your voice be taken into account anyway?

It shouldn’t but it is.
