    As a new RuneScape player (deviated heavily towards osrs) I would definitely agree that the simplicity is mesmerizing, getting a serotonin rush every level, and then having that rush being slowly but surely extended by the leveling algorithm, but supplemented by drops from higher and higher level pvm monsters, the gameplay loop is foolproof and nearly unbeatable, and the progression that every account will encounter is well crafted enough that it is no wonder why people, new and old, still play and get addicted to old school RuneScape

    Osrs is a rythme game. It works on a 100 cycle/minute clock. Imagine playing music on an instrument. You know the songs and enjoy practicing them. But all of a sudden your instrument behaves entirely differently. That's what happened when they implemented the "evolution of combat" update.

      ​​​@@mendelson6052 you have to realize although not simply about achieving a set target or XP gains for older people.
      Think of it from their perspective they may not have a lot a time due to other endeavors and real life obligations like work family friends etc..
      It's undeniably known that Rs3 you'll level up much quickier and faster than OSRS some want to play casually only have 3 hrs spare in RS3 you can do quite bit in that timeframe with the amount of free teleportation much more PvM content and accessible far more beginners friendly than Osrs is .
      If you have 3 hrs spare in Osrs you'll achieve maybe one quest or two quest skill for a bit if your in the 80's for stats ( like myself) you won't be getting a single level in 3 hrs.
      Which leads me on to next point achievement you mention indeed get a 99 in any skill of the game is great doesn't matter the skill is at the end of the day no matter whoever says what "a 99 is a 99" ( infact many players don't even have a single 99 not in the old era neither this era it's literally in thousands for each of them there's more than 2 million accounts ( I'll roughly estimate 5million mark on old-school since relaunch created worldwide and mobile)
      Just for reference not even 1million accounts on any of those skills. It ranges from 78,000-545,000 accounts in a single skill with the 99. ( In hindsight only small faction of all accounts in the player base actually do have least single 99 even if it's just one).
      Cooking is not the most common 99 nope 367,376 have this cape as of to date ( I myself am apart of that small faction of players).

    I think a huge source of bitterness from OSRS players is the fact that people put 10's, 100's, even 1000's of hrs into a game they loved just to have the rug pulled from beneath their feet with little to no warning
    It felt like players had no power or say in the massive changes that Jagex implemented. A lot of people felt like the core player base was being betrayed for the prospect of growth
    If I had to guess that's probably a big part of the reason they started the polling system, to avoid massively upsetting the main player base again, which could cause another diaspora like after the dreaded EOC update

    As a correction jagex didn't just come up with the idea for a 2007 remake of their game, it was because of a fan-made private server called 2007scape was reaching higher active player counts than what was RS3 at the time so of course jagex took legal action which in turn caused a petition which gained over 150k signatures. In conclusion of the petition jagex announced they would poll it to the public.

There's more depth involved in it but in a quick summary we only have Old School Runescape servers because WE the PEOPLE fought for it.

I get not knowing when the updates happened just for the sake of knowing it, but is it that much to google a couple things if you're going to make a video about something?

      Same here! I've been playing since 2005, played heavily for 2 or 3 years. Back then I was f2p and knew nothing about members items/quests/skills. I knew there was a gate I couldn't walk through because I wasn't a member, but I wasn't that curious. The f2p game had more than enough content for me back then. We weren't focused on level gains back then, so having a lot of level 1 skills wasn't even annoying. Someone with Rune equipment was basically seen as a god back then. Level 50+ was seen as a high level back then, at least in f2p worlds. We spent most of our time just talking, making friends, and having fun messing around. I've been playing for 18 years now, on and off. Sometimes my breaks are a year or two long, but I always come back. With membership now of course. I have three 99s now (Smithing, Cooking, Prayer, in that order).

    I heavily play both versions. Runescape 3 definitely has better quests, quality of life improvements, bossing, afk methods for multi tasking, and for the most part is a very slept on and misunderstood game. Old school runescape is more simple, nostalgic, and I like that it has no mtx and a bigger community. Overall I'd say rs3 is a better game, but both games have their own unique content and are worth playing. I've been playing since 2003 and it's interesting that so many people quit classic for rs2 and were able to adapt to the huge changes, but most people couldn't adapt to rs3. History didn't repeat itself at all.

    Been playing since I was 12 and in foster care, gave me the escape I needed. Now i'm 29 and still playing. There's no MMO quite like RuneScape. I legit mowed lawns and actually mailed in my membership.
    I feel like games like WoW Classic could learn a lot from OSRS, instead of the same exact game from 2007, build upon it and respect players opinions while keeping the classic, or old school feel.

    The problem with bots is revenue, let's say 10 percent of the paying members in the game are bots. Well, that's a big problem, Jagex can easily get rid of bots. But can they really? They have quotas they got to meet and shareholders. If Jagex went to them and said, hey were going to throw away 10 percent of your profits, those shareholders wouldn't be happy.

    Theres something deeper to Runescape that I didnt ever get with any other games. Its really like another universe. I used to wander around on the edges of the game and loved questing. Everything about it is cool, even if no one is around. I started in 2005 and have been on and off. Up until eoc I enjoyed every variant of it. Bounty volcano, trouble brewing, fist of guthix, stealing creation, even dungeoneering later on. Its one of those games you had to experience through the years to really appreciate it. Im glad Old School came out, because I used to literally harass Jmods to get a “317” revision server released and they said it wasnt possible until the 2006 private server started to have hundreds of thousands of people looking forward to it. I could ramble on forever 😂..

    something I don't see mentioned in these kinda videos is the change in quest tone between the two. I just started OSRS as my first runescape game ever a month ago and I REALLY love how your character is just some idiot always getting in way over their head. in RS3 they seem to have undone this and changed you into a "chosen one" and gets way more serious, which IMO is very boring.
    even new OSRS quests still have this same "you are a bumbling idiot" tone and feeling and I love it. by far the most interesting and funny quest dialogue I've ever read in an MMO

  • @psycho-nutkase9233
    @psycho-nutkase9233 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Honestly I started playing in 06 all the way through till the big over haul. (I think a few months after dungeoneering was released) I fell of the face of the earth and when I came back it logged me into RS3 and I already bought a year membership card because I was committed. Needless to say it popped me into tutorial island to go through the new mechanics and I logged off hucked the card in the closet and was sad. Sometime later I was told that Old School RuneScape was a thing and in 2016-2017 ish started another account and just as hopelessly addicted to it as I was in 06 😂 .
    I don't know truly if RS3 is bad, but it was a let down to what I remembered and was craving to play. The times and memories I had with RS before the new engine update was locked in. It's weird now since in 06 we where all kids and teens playing but now the majority of the players are 25-34 and have families and still play. It's like OSRS is the 80s crack epidemic 😂 theres no escape.

  • @Acta_Non_Verba
    @Acta_Non_Verba ปีที่แล้ว +3

    OSRS is a much simpler and nostalgic game. You can just kick back and play. But RS3 is a lot more fun/exciting when you learn the mechanics, and has 10X the content. Bossing on OSRS got boring so quick I'm lvl 122 and hardly play it anymore.

  • @redchinhunt5507
    @redchinhunt5507 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just wanna say as an experienced player, not as much as some but still 2207 skill total atm, and pretty well versed in PvMing, OSRS is an extremely deep game. Way more than it appears on first glance. Knowledge of game ticks, which occurs at 0.6 second intervals opens up a huge world of abilities in the game to give you an advantage, like turning on/off your prayers every tick to get the use of prayers without actually spending prayer points. This can go even farther into skilling as some of the fastest methods require manipulation of the game engine to perform actions quicker, like 3 tick box traps or 1.5 tick woodcutting. Not to mention a lot of the end game content and raids are very fun, and hitting those big drops feels very rewarding. Overall its actually a very mechanically deep game with a high skill ceiling, but none of this is required to actually enjoy it as there's really good content across all levels, and even 2 free to play bosses that would be rewarding to most f2p players.
    And just on RS3 I don't have anything against it, but as someone who played as a kid, how it is nowadays is completely unrecognizable to me and just feels less rewarding, as now the combat just seems to boil down to using WoW-like abilities. Maybe its deeper, i really wouldn't know, but on OSRS everything just feels right to me, and 2 years into my newest account in OldSchool, I really still have no desire to move on from the game as there still is a ton to accomplish.

    @koryf113 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    As a RS3 player and OSRS content enjoyer, I prefer the quality of life updates that RS3 has added, I enjoy the new skills that have come along, and I enjoy the bossing/dungeons. In watching content of osrs I like the challenges creators have come up with that just don’t exist in RS3 content, rs3 content is either a guide or bossing content nothing crazy or new. Osrs gameplay to me personally was a lot more of a grind then rs3 and more of a time sink then I can comfortable commit to, rs3 is easy for 95% of the game but high end bossing is insane. I would like to try the new raids in osrs but idk how long it would take me to get an account raid ready.

    I primarily play RS3, but I agree that OSRS content is more enjoyable to watch. There’s just a lot more variety with OSRS content creators / streamers, whereas a vast majority of RS3 content creators / streamers focus mainly on PVM, which isn’t always that enjoyable to watch. OSRS content is just a lot more chill and laid back, whereas RS3 content is just the constant grind fest of PVM.

But he did say also if he ever quit working, he'd switch to osrs instead.

      I'm glad I'm not paying 14m for a whip. In OSRS, there are actual ways to make money from skilling now. It never was that way back in the day. Sometimes, you'd spend your whole day's time just merching while bankstanding for measly amounts of gp. Those days are gone, and it's nice.
      I know Fresh Start Worlds has GE as well, so maybe it'll feel like more of a challenge, but honestly, I like where OSRS is right now. You can make decent money with no skills at all. Not to mention the decent money you can make WITH skills.
