The fact that this dog shit game has any players is the funniest shit ever to me
>worst gameplay out of any game in the history of video games ever
>run the same agility course clicking the same pixel in the same sequence for a thousand hours straight like youre stuck in a real life episode of black mirror, same applies to every other skill , smithing running from conveyer belt to bank chest etc
>most p2w game i have ever seen, buy gp from jagex, walk to GE buy all of the best gear with irl money directly and max out all skills with the best xp rates with $$
>40-60% of entire playerbase is bots, when i quit i tested how long you could bot before a ban and i suicide botted 16 hours/day for 3 months just selling the gp at the end of each day for $ before being banned (only used free scripts too with 0 botting experience LMAO) still took 92 days before ban
>not even gonna mention the lgbt stuff
>implemented raids trying to copy wow but being too braindead to understand that RS was never supposed to be about gameplay like that, it was the relax and chop a tree game
>new items with insane power creep invalidated all old gear that people knew like barrows etc
>skills themselves completely meaningless since bosses give 500x more sharks, logs etc than the actual skill would
>horrific anti cheat that bans real players as bots , if ur not a streamer etc u will remain false permad
>GE addition ruined massive rpg/social element of trading and encouraged botting, i still remember multiple players from pre GE like potlonshop who provided me with my potion needs
>all soul gone, no castle wars or other soulfulness like it since current virgin players only care about xp rates [not fault of jagex though]
>all new pvm designed with runelite cheat client in mind forgetting that its a point and click game that should have never had hard bosses
If this piece of shit released today it would be laughed at and be dead on day 1
