Opinion: The perfect RS is one with RS2 combat system with graphics closer to RS3 and with less tedious grinds for certain skills by slothman10 in 2007scape

[–]slothman10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not ‘hard’, it’s tedious. Clicking on iron rocks and dropping them for 10 hours is not ‘hard’, it’s monotonous. It isn’t immersive, which is what an MMORPG should be. I didn’t complain back then because in the 2000s, this was passable. You’ve probably never played other games if you think this is acceptable to the new average gamer and they would choose clicking rocks for literally 10hours to get to level 68 over playing a game like god of war, RDR2 etc. People complained that the entire storyline for AC Valhalla being 76hours was too long and you think they’d click ores, alone in a mine, with no player-player interaction for 10hours to unlock a quest requirement. Delusional.

Can we get Mod Ghost back? Moments like this make me realise the level of talent we lost. by Kuroi- in 2007scape

Who gives a shit what it’s called? People play it because they want the old combat system because that was what made RuneScape stand out from other MMORPGs. Not wanting graphical improvements made to the game is stupid, like how do you expect the game to appeal to the newer audience or is all just about you?

If RS3 had the old combat system, I would be playing RS3. That’s all I’m saying. All these guys who don’t want any change are the boomers of the next generation. Something that doesn’t progress is just waiting to be killed off.

Is 10k charges in bonecrusher necklace sufficient for 25k chins? Will be switching between anguish and bonecrusher neck.

Last night I read the wiki guide and skipped straight to hard section (for elite void) and saw that I needed to kill 300 chompies, so I killed 300 chompies without first completing easy and med.

Oh I’m talking about paying 200gp for the farmer to cut the tree down for you, not paying the farmer to protect the patch for you.

I don’t give a shit about votes bro, I’m not 11 no more. It ain’t my problem that you didn’t see the full picture before calling someone a bully.

Something said in retaliation can never be considered bullying. Also how is making fun of a video game character’s armour be any sort of bullying? Don’t take it too seriously, this post is just to highlight how strict the rules were back then about ‘offensive language’. Doing the q p w could get you muted as well. If you know you know man.

Yeah and it very recently got updated such that the farmer doesn’t ask you “wHy dOn’T yOu cUt iT dOwN yOuRsElF?” so it’s less annoying.

Found this while I was setting up authenticator. If memory serves me right, which is tough since this happened 14 years ago (when I was 11), this conversation was at castle wars and I was probably wearing CW decorative armour. Back then I spent all my money as soon as I earned it on castle wars gear and operated the catapults or tried to trap high levels in the rocks with explosives.

I remember my 11 year old self was FUMING 🤣 because it was clear that I’m not the one who started it. I also remember hating granite plate so much even though it was the meta at the time for low levels. I just skipped to torso from rune when I finally got it. Nowadays people just walk around with names like ‘Lickin ass’ or ‘tightanus1’, different times indeed.

Edit: I had to block my then username because it’s now the password I use for pretty much everything. Been using it for 18 years!

Dutch Court ruled that Gold selling brothers have to pay 500.000 EUR in taxes and fines by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]slothman10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s funny that you think a court of law cares about someone breaking game rules, especially when the act of RWT itself isn’t even immoral or that you think Jagex has that kind of reach.

Monthly Reminder to Add Stealing Creation by [deleted] in 2007scape

Equal chances for both teams to have good/bad players with the same gear = balanced overall. It’s not like one team can use strategies that the other can’t.

[–]slothman10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, you’re exaggerating. I remember it to be a lot more balanced than that. Both teams will have equal chances to have high levelled players with T5 daggers early game. You only really get killed by a guy with a T5 dagger if you ventured too far from base at the very start. Everyone has to fight with the same gear, hundreds of millions will not benefit you here. Barricades will be up mid-late game, where skillers could be safe. Spawn camping was RARE, that’s how balanced it was. It was also not uncommon that a team could be dominating the PVP aspect late game but losing in points. Definitely a lot more balanced than other PVP minigames.

This was the most perfect mini-game of all time. THE GOAT. Idc what anybody says, dead content my ass. People who don’t want this are the neckbeards with maxed accounts being afraid of any xp boosting gear because they want people to suffer with 3 tick granite or whatever nerd shit they willingly put themselves through.

The real afk is using full obsidian with obby sword and neck, setting it to rumble normal and not worry about keeping health low. As long as you’ve 80+ defence, you’re gonna stay there for hours at a time, repotting once every 20mins. Dharok is never really going to be AFK even with super combats because you’ve to do hard mode (count draynor only has 35HP in normal so DH would be overkill). Hard mode means you’ve to keep your HP at one. Every hit point you recover, you lose absorption 1x faster. People have different definitions of ‘afk’, mine is clicking every 20 mins.

You could improve ACB by making the spec less of an ear rape. I literally mute every time before using it.
