I don't like RS anymore. Grinding is the gameplay, and PvP is all based on RNG.
i got the quest cape and something like 15 99's in the rs3 last year and now i feel like i am completely done with the game

What's the point?
OSRS resembles the old Runescape in the most superficial sense. The community is almost completely different, having become robotic and focused solely on optimization and efficiency as the game has been effectively solved. Much of the content that made RS worth playing is dead as a result of this mentality, including much of the iconic 2007 equipment that has fallen victim to power creep necessitated by the fanbase's demand for new gear to be generally "best-in-slot".
The one saving grace to RS at this point would be the quests, but generally anyone interested in those has already done them ten years ago. Many of the most interesting quests came out after 2007 anyway, and now are not only themselves exclusive to RS3 but prevent OSRS from even having quests of similar natures until the developers get over their autism. Which would be okay if the game started receiving its own original quests, but it doesn't even really get that much.
OSRS, if it ever was a valid simulacrum of the old RS, has long since ceased to be one. Its community has somehow devolved into something worse, and its content has been largely forsaken in favor of mishandled ideas and stuff ripped right out of RS3. It might fill the void for a month or so, but it won't even take that long to realize that there is nothing about the game worth playing at this point in time.

Very good summary.
Everyone post accounts
>played 06-10, then a few random months over the past couple of years due to nostalgia
>2.4k Rs3 (2.1k before quitting, I think)
>1.6k ult iron osrs (done during 15)
>1k vscape (done during 17)
so how did the protest and shit go?
Is the free membership DC?
>Love game and play it for literally ~100 days worth of time
>Fag company buys out game and ruins it
>Releases (Old) version of game before it got ruined, for the most part
>None of my stats or quests that I spent all that time on carries over
>Have to do the goddamn tutorial again
At least Old Runescape doesn't have the Grand Exchange, right?

Nope, got GE because player base is composed entirely of idiots.

Too busy with other games and work, I come back to OSRS from time to time but I just don't have time for it.

Yeah, I can see how you would like that
>>379694781
Isn't that your fault for forgetting to charge your crystals?
>>379693049
the point is to make an ironman and UIM and feel superior to other people.
all i do in osrs is:
>log in
>at GE
>sell goblin mail at high price
>buy goblin mail at low price
>mystrangeaddiction.jpeg
>>379695545
Same.
>buy feathers at 2gp
>sell feathers at 3gp
50% profit, few things give you that
So is Oldschool Runescape free or does it require membership? Mite b cool as a timewaster trying to level my account back up again as long as I don't have to pay membership fees every month.

>>379696648
it's only free weekend rn
I don't want to waste my life on it again because I have no self control
I finally got a single 99 last year which has officially freed me from this game forever. Don't care if I'm a pleb or whatever but the grind really is ridiculous and I'd prefer to spend that time playing other games.
>>379692094
lol i remember runescape in 2007. i was kind of young so i didnt really know what to do
