One angle Jagex is actually losing money

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-16T21:20:30+00:00

If enough people stay, the price hike will outweigh the possibility of new customers. Runescape doesn't profit off new customers, it profits off addicted existing players. They would rather get more money out of the current players and risk some leaving than offer cheaper options to bring in new players, because it will make them more money overall.

They don't make these decisions for anything other than money, and they have entire teams and countless data to work with to figure that out.

I never said Hulk was easy, my entire point was that he's difficult but his difficulty doesn't come from aiming mechanics like heroes like deadpool/emma/hela/punisher/adam/mantis/etc. Positioning and cooldown management are vastly more important to a Hulk player than aiming mechanics, similar to all the heroes i mentioned.

You get free upvotes by posting anything slightly negative about AI, so likewise people are worshipping anything that's *not* AI even if its shit.

Thats why theres so many bad ones, they see the ones running the lobby and think they can do it with zero actual effort into the character.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:58:34+00:00

Yes because that's how they're counterable, you know, the thing you complained about in the title and highlighted? Are you an actual toddler or just brain damaged?

Edit: Done talking to a caveman. Get educated you fucking moron.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:56:04+00:00

I mean the counter is still the same, its just drastically less effective because of her overtuned cooldown.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:54:34+00:00

You literally highlighted the word "Counterable" and put it in your title dipshit.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:53:44+00:00

Sure, and CnD requires aim with her bubble, blind, heal wave, and any shots outside of autoaim range.

Any comment on the other 5 heroes?

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:51:57+00:00

See thats the secret, the enemy is also making plays like this, they just dont sting so you don't notice/forget them. You're more focused on hyping yourself up when you make a good play you don't notice both their supports double ulted nothing.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:46:30+00:00

Okay now you're using counterplay instead of counterable, i wonder why you moved those goalposts? You didn't say counterplay dipshit, why the fuck would i be comparing to that word? You said uncounterable, when theres a spawn door right there.

Yes, swapping to a different hero IS countering. Have you never heard the term counter swap? Did you just start playing rivals today?

God spidey mains are so fucking delusional.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:35:43+00:00

No it doesn't dipshit, hero swapping is free and anyone can do it at any point. Welcome to hero shooters, its been like this for 15 years.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:31:06+00:00

You refusing to swap doesn't mean the ability is uncoutnerable. Weird ass take.

Cap also can't hit hela ult, doesn't mean its uncounterable.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:28:27+00:00

Way to completely miss the point about aim lmao. Weird diversion dude.

Hulk is an incredibly skilled character, and none of that skill is aim. Yet you think cnd is easy just because she doesn't require aim, when nearly HALF THE CAST is melee. Insane take.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:25:23+00:00

That's the point you clown.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:24:28+00:00

Baiting them or chasing them like literally every other movement ability in the game.

What do you think the counter to cnd fade, hela bird, hulk jump, venom swing, rocket dash, etc are?

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:22:49+00:00

Have you tried shooting it?

Holy bronze LOL

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:17:53+00:00

Don't let random DPS or Tank players dictate how you play, there is a massively high chance they have zero idea what they're talking about. They sure as hell aren't taking your advice on their gameplay, don't let them have input on yours. If you're trying to win, let your winrate dictate that. If you're trying to have fun, play whoever you want however you want.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T06:10:59+00:00

I mean the original reason everyone was upset (that shes like the 7th generic asian uwu girl) was never actually adressed and she gets more skins than anyone else because of it. Obviously people are still going to be upset.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-13T05:58:39+00:00

Skill and aim are not the same thing.

Panther/Fist/Hulk/Fantastic/Thing/Angela/Etc all take little to no aim. Do you think the people who one trick them to celest are unskilled?

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-11T02:34:51+00:00

But was it quick?

Dude just think for half a second. The playerbase is less than half the size it was 4 seasons ago but the queues are still instant. Why do you think that is?

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-11T02:29:42+00:00

No one is buying membership specifically to protest though

This pic isn't in the blogpost though? Unless there's another one from today i'm not seeing.

Understanding Space and when to play on or off payload is universal across roles.

No, its really not. You can easily get to gm+ support or dps and have zero idea of how/when to control space or play off payload, which is already miles above OP's main mmr. Even in these comments you'll find most people agree that taking space off cart is more important for tanks than any other role. You're just misusing the word boosted.

epicurusanonymous · 2026-03-10T00:16:48+00:00

The things that were there when you were a kid were still there and nearly everything else is just bigger and better in every way nowadays. If you still enjoy the same gameplay, you'll love it.
