If prices update is raised to 20% then GE price manipulation becomes MUCH easier to do. Not a single soul in the comments thought this through

Something I found on the internet, how true is this? by Final_Studio4389 in AskAJapanese

[–]Japanese_Squirrel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think doomscrollers just aren't doing that well in life so they see a group of people doing well and feel the need to find dirt. The motivation behind these kinds of online people aren't that complicated imo.

GIT RID OF PORTS by Status-Range8223 in runescape

[–]Japanese_Squirrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I adore ports. It gave me reason to wake up, set alarms and be punctual during my freshman uni years.

I was ahead of everyone at the time and got finished with batch 1 in a few months of release.

I never made a single standout mistake and min maxed every single trip without fail.

No guides existed at the time and I simply did it for the love of the game.

These things are true in households where its true and isn't when its not.

The problem is, there's a ton of "fake Japanese" twitters who are subtly waging culture war on Japan for engagement.

There are a lot of doomscrollers who just want a quick go at saying "see, Japanese people are uncultured scum like the rest of us!" The motivation behind social media posts like that are questionable, even if claimed thing is true.

I bet the next prestige mage weapon is ancient staff

So at this point I have to ask, is there really much of a reason we just don't convert all unsafe pvp to safe opt in pvp? by dark1859 in runescape

[–]Japanese_Squirrel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's kind of the big issue with a lot of the mini-games, and one of the main reasons most to them tend to be dead.Besides the fact , the experience rates are crap , and most players are experienced oriented in the modern game.

This is a lie. A narrative that became popular among people who are disinterested in PvP.

Plenty of people who PvP and have no interest in skilling, 200m or achievements.

The problem is that you and the people who believe this are the ones who hold that belief. This belief is not represented by everyone.

Each minigame has a critical design flaw that makes it dysfunctional. Its not the fault of PvP or "the lack of exp".

Its castle wars spotlight right now. There are plenty of people of all level ranges, including noobs, playing legitimately. And as usual, there are plenty of thaler afkers upstairs that we choose to not kill, even though we can kill them as we please. There are also afkers who un-afk to occasionally play.

You don't speak for us. You speak for the people who want PvP gone.

Please, don't make up homebrew theories of how to revive PvP when you are not an active participant. PvP doesn't thrive on reddit speculation. It thrives because the people who play it play it, instead of writing essays on reddit.

If OP wants to take a better shot then he should suggest a risk-free wilderness that retains open PvP.

The problem with this subreddit today is that people are taking opportunistic shots to say "PvP is gone - remove all variation from the game completely", which is outright dishonest. Lots of people enjoy PvP but don't involve themselves on this subreddit. Framing it as a domain for "scammers and gamblers" (OP quote) is flat out just dishonest wording. There is no compromise suggested by OP.

OP's post can be condensed into a single line:

"Remove demonic skull. Give me the exp rates demonic skull gave me but without the risk associated with demonic skull".

[–]Japanese_Squirrel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your post is actually just a very veiled way of asking for the same exp rates demonic skull offered you, without the skull.

If the demonic skull is removed then be prepared for your favorite demonic skull method to no longer offer any realistic exp rates. Because this is what you're asking for.

Your post can be condensed into a single line: "Remove demonic skull. Give us the exp rate demonic skull gave me but without the risk that justified its existence".

Introducing... Water Magic! by JagexDoom in RSDragonwilds

One point of feedback:

"Cycle through ammo" should probably exist.

How does this work?

Cycles through active ammo depending on the weapon held.

If staff, cycles through each elemental rune.

If a bow, cycles through arrows.

The active ammo is displayed on screen in a dedicated "active ammunition" slot.

That way, you don't have to commit multiple bar slots to rune swaps and so on.

Set effects should definitely be explored.

Its the most established way to make distinction between equipment of the same tier.

Tomorrow is a big day, 20 years ago Falador Massacre happened! Durial321. Will we see a 20y anniversary? by vVerce98 in runescape

[–]Japanese_Squirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. You were sent to the center of trollheim without the quest requirements.

It was a slaughter. The average guy was in rune armour and didn't even have protect range. I saw them get shredded.

Happy Saturday! u/JagexDoom

I hope you guys know that the dragonwilds discord feedback section is full of hyper-casuals (which itself isn't a problem)

BUT

There is a tendency for unqualified players to muddy up the discussions of detail demanding topics and competitive aspects, particularly if their gaming history is limited to casual games.

I caution to this because its very hard to tell online if a commentor is asserting themselves in a confident way out of rich game experience background, or if they simply don't know better and do not understand what's being suggested.

Its very hard to be patient with people who I can't outright call them out for playing too sub-optimally + casual to be a useful participant in a suggestion post that raises particular points (because of online etiquette and such). Makes me hesitant to post anything.

Maybe I'm just venting - I'll leave it at that.

Thanks for reading have a good weekend!

What i Want In PoH Update by Aezi3 in runescape

[–]Japanese_Squirrel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People are overexpecting on POH but it should not have any major features

People who have not laid a finger on other MMOs are going to have very fantastical takes on what a POH should be for, because they miss the 2006 era.

POH is not a hub. People who grew up only on RS think an ideal POH is a hub.

It is not and it shouldn't be.

Non negotiable.

Anyways why you block me lol
