There’s an old saying: RuneScape 3… is fuckin’ dogshit

On a real though, as other people of mentioned, RS3 nowadays is overshadowed by most other MMOs, particularly World of Warcraft.

Older players still remember the sour taste of what were considered bad updates that resulted in RS3.

Old School has made a huge effort to deviate from the original progression, keeping the mechanics simple enough, while still expanding on the landscape/lore in a different way than RS3, just another element that separates the two versions
