RuneScape (runescape 3, not osrs) made a beloved character, A GUY called "Raptor" into a female and the community over at reddit are livid. They know that this is "woke agenda" and basically forced diversity for the sake of diversity. They are calling for the head of the developer who made this change, and it basically retcon the entire RuneScape lore. Let me remind you that the only thing RS3 does better then old school runescape is the quest and lore design and they basically just shat themselves. Turns out the beloved prostitute queen was The Raptor all along.

this might unironically be the biggest drama in RS history. I don't see Runescape surviving after this.

>"Raptor" into a female and the community over at reddit are livid
Nothing wrong with that. Many instances of that in fiction Samus, Eowyn/Dernhelm, and Mulan.
Although looking it up, it looks like they retroactively changed Raptor's model to be more female-like. Kinda lame.
I feel like nobody would give a shit if it was handled better plus the character they decided to be the big twist was the fricking queen of varrock who literally just treats you like shit while you make her garden.
Lmao seriously? Could they pick a worse character? I guess they chose her because she’s an annoying soccer mom and that’s sexist or something
That's more stupid than him just being a girl underneath.
The Raptor was well established as a male and even had voice acted lines.
Raptor was voice acted by guys and had a mysterious backstory, they essentially just deleted his character and gave the queen(who no one likes) his armour.
based, queen of varrock is a boss, frick you morons, cope
Wtf, this doesn't even make sense two quests ago. These new devs are fricking stupid, RS3 ran out of steam after the Elder god wars.
Just bring back Zaros already ffs
This dude gets its. Zaros quests were the shit. Bring them back.
Didn't he frick off into a different universe because he CBA dealing with the Elder Gods?
Yeah he left for a better game, don't blame him really.
This whole Fort Forinthry questline has literally just been to fill agendas. The previous quest had a nonbinary person, a gay couple, and pronouns for every character. Now they made the mysterious big badass armored dude the shitty queen of varrock that nobody cares about. Frick this shit, the writing team at Jagex needs to be fricking axed.
Fort story is the filler arc of an anime.
They were just killing time while developing Necromancy.
Did the quest, it was fine.
There's no drama here. Warrior Queens are common in video games anyways.
Except it makes no sense for her to be the raptor, she was a b***hy bar maid who married into royalty and had no power yet made her husband her b***h, funny dynamic considering the king could just tell her to stop at any time.
She was not a warrior queen who protected her husband and took part in the fricking elder god wars, these writers are fricking terrible making old characters fit their agenda rather than writing new good female characters like Zanik or Seren
Writers know that deep down, even the most woke white men don't want to look at black people and strong female characters. So they just take existing beloved characters and give their skills and abilities to females and minorities in a forced attempt to turn women and minorities into likable characters. This is a plague upon the entire entertainment industry and everyone's getting tired of it.
This is the highest level slayer master in RS3 btw.
She clearly fricks the monsters into submission. Good design.
You just know
No she isnt? Shes like level 85
She was for a time.
There aren't any higher ones and her task list is kickass.
She was designed by a developer known for adding his own combait into the game. Yes, that especially includes Violet.
sexo
i wanna frick that queen, too bad the player models don't look anywhere near this and they canceled the model update
As I understand it they "shelved" (Jagex's word for cancelled) the model update because it looked like shit and players hated it, and they de-sexed the female avatar.
They barely showed off anything to hate, I'm pretty sure they just pulled that out of their ass after they realized what an undertaking it would be
>Pays pass
>Play as girl
What else, are you an obese spic?
Some of these comments are absolutely weird. It is like they killed their favorite character when there is literally nothing about him in the wiki.'
https://runescape.wiki/w/The_Raptor#Fort_Forinthry
That's the charm
>he shows up
>kills shit
>refuses to elaborate
>leaves
Raptor was literally a nothing character other than generic “badass” in huge armor that they placed in a few spots around the game world when they introduced their “signature heroes” character concept that flopped hard
Literally the only thing Raptor has done of significance since being introduced was become a temporary (later permanent) slayer master and a shitty one at that with terrible tasks that people only did because you had to clear Raptor’s special slayer challenge 3 times to unlock some permanent passive benefits
The only thing cool about raptor was the armor and people should be mad that it was slimmed down. As for being a girl under that massive armor have people never fricking played video games before thats such a fricking common cliche
>jagex removes the last masculine male character from the game
>sends interns to /vg/ to defend it
very sad
Raptor was confirmed male previously, and had a male voice actor. his isnt a repeat of that cliche, its a retcon.
>girl is under all the heavy armour
that isn't a new trope...are you guys braindead, why people so mad?
It's not just this quest anon. Runescape 3 quests have been awful ever since they got rid of the god characters. The overall quality of the quests are awful with no puzzles are shit combat. The characters are more focused on being LGBT movements rather than good interesting characters. The quests are released in arcs rather than multiple questlines at once
They flat out killed one of the biggest threats(Bilrach) in one of the most dogshit quests in the game to prop a female character up (who mind you, she was a good character before this). RS3 has been in a pit for a while, trying to put the sixth age stuff back in the bottle when it's far far too late for that
Because the girl under the armor is an incredibly unlikable b***hy character whereas the Raptor was a cool guy who likes to kill shit.
Just look at his dialogue style guide posted recently.
People wouldn't care nearly as much if it was a new face.
feels like a overreaction to me.
That's because you don't play runescape and have no idea what's being said in this thread. Same reason people didn't have a fricking clue why the skullgirls shit or war thunder shit was so bad
No one cares raptor is a girl. They care because it shows Nu-Jagexs blatent disrespect for the lore by contradicting itself and making shit up and dragging down old characters who it makes no sense. I think RS3 has great female characters in that they are retroactively ruining to get woke points.
Bet these homosexual ass devs wouldn't have the balls to write someone like Seren now
>runescape
>lore
You people are unimaginably embarrassing, are you really pretending to care about lore in a slightly more interactive Cookie Clicker MMO?
You know what homosexual? Yes, i do. Runescape had fun quests and good writing once and i do actually like it which i'm not ashamed of .
Just hurts to see it get dragged down, go post in another thread if you are so above this you loser
>runescape had fun quests and good writing
>good writing
Anon, I...
You never played the game
I agree anon. I liked runescape lore so much I turned Gielinor into a setting for my dnd campaign.
Here's the map I made for Yanille a while back (greatly downsized because moronic 4mb upload limit)
neat
Thanks anons, I've made quite a few places for it. It's been a fun time.
sounds great, hope you and your friends have good times with it
that looks good, anon. good job
God I miss the bright vibrant green grass colors, 3scape making everything dull and dark was a fricking mistake. Good on you for making a ludo map.
Shut the frick up, moron.
Concession: Accepted.
Consession not given nor warranted. Shut up and frick off.
What's the deal with Seren?
unironically autistic
It's not the gender of the character people are mad about, it's the character itself people are mad about. The queen of varrock being the raptor is the stupidest shit ever.
This is literally just the Mystery Tourney Black Knight plot beat but flipped so that it's a noblewoman instead of a nobleman.
The funny thing is she can barely be called a noble woman. She was a common folk that worked as a barmaid and only became royalty because the king of varrock married her.
still won't play it
The game has black characters and women, not sure why they're doing this moronic shit.
At this point they'll need to pull a osrs3 to unfrick themselves.
Is "the mysterious armored and masked warrior is actually a woman" not an old trope at this point? what are you even sperging out about OP, I think you have terminal culture war brainrot
OP did a terrible job explaining the situation. It's not the fact that the Raptor is a female that has people upset, it's the character that they decided to be the twist reveal that has people upset.
You clearly have no idea what went on here
Yaaaass slay queen!
Kek, not just a woman, but the most insufferable woman in the game, who your character would canonically rather jump off a pier than deal with.
holy shit i can't believe jagex actually listened
well done bro you got me
People play RS3?
Holy shit I haven't seen that in nearly a decade
Kudos anon
It's posted on Ganker daily.
Post deleted, what did it say
linked to a mustard gas generator
wait really? LMAOOO. kinda pathetic that jagex bowed down to these incel posters.
>RS3, not osrs
so no one cares
but raptor had no physical body in new varrok he was always just haunted armor while the other heroes had their heads stuffed and mounted in the bedroom
Stop bringing logic into this, gayex stopped doing that over a decade ago
>raptor
>beloved character
fricking kek
the dude did basically nothing for a decade
having the queen of varrock be some badass mulan yass kween is hilariously fricktarded, but this OP reeks of a sub 60 iq
Any private single player only servers for Runescape?

Give me a fricking summary of the recent RS3 lore please. I can't keep up with this shit. Are they mad because its a woman or because of the armour? holy shit reddit is so annoying to use.
frick you
I don't care enough to say all of it, but basically, every new quest forces strong female characters, blacks, transgenders/gays, or any combination of those. In the quest before today's your character is forced to participate in the pronoun crap. I'm not even joking
Basically the god plot line they had going on has concluded in a big finale that while flawed, was a good send off for the gods ending in fights surviving against seren and battling with Zamarok himself. Very nice.
Now the game has been spinning its wheels ever since, propping up several old women characters and buffing them to ridiculous degrees having a once level 100 melee take on one of the most powerful mages in the game (lvl 800) and win or killing off other characters to boost them up.
Not only that, the quest quality regardless of this has been awful. No puzzles, no real combat encounters, several miniquests and repetitive building of this fort with the quests being segmented into "arcs" rather than several new diverging questlines or one offs. It's just awful
>god wars 2 and elder god wars happen
>we banish the gods again after punching zamorak in the face, losing our chosen one powers
>now saradomins daughter is in charge of his aligned cities
>lucien's daughter is now in charge of zamorak's shit after killing bilrach
>also we build a fort, hire a they/them and solve some incredibly boring mysteries to find out zemouregal is up to his usual bullshit

>bonds went to the moon

https://runescape.wiki/w/Player_character
extremely short and easy to understand imo.
>The Player, also known as the Adventurer, is the avatar of someone playing RuneScape. They are a human, may be either gender, and may be customised. They start their adventuring career in year 169 of the Fifth Age on Tutorial Island and thereafter complete a number of quests until they become a well-known hero.
>At the start of the Sixth Age and the destruction of the Edicts of Guthix, they are made one of the Guardians of Guthix, known as the World Guardian, and are tasked by Guthix himself, upon his death, with protecting Gielinor from world-ending threats brought about mainly by the gods and Elder Gods, and are granted a degree of immunity to the gods' magic to make doing so possible. Ultimately, they succeed by re-establishing the edicts and banishing the gods, losing their World Guardian powers, no longer being immune to some degree of god magic or shadow anima.
>Go from "This dude cooked lobsters and then killed a dragon, what a hero!" to interdimensional spacengiger god wars
>what a hero
Most of the major old quests have everyone treating the player like the stupid murder-hobo they are though.
Replaying the early game and old quests made me appreciate how much more fun it is earn you're a barely functioning moron who will do anything for a chance at 20 coins and a fun afternoon.
>Give me a fricking summary of the recent RS3 lore please. I can't keep up with this shit.
see pic related, Modern gayex is so deep into the gay culture they literally try to cater to the most moronic and braindead casual gays for the last 10 years that they got fed up with this moronic update that even the community they pander heavily to ( reddit, lol who uses the official forums these days) are shooting them down
There NEEDS to be some sort of player-driven movement to abandon the game for RS3, sunk cost fallacy can only keep you in denial for so long before you just snap and give the frick up
That happened a while ago
No one fricking plays RS3 comapred to OSRS
for OSRS* rather my bad
or just stop playing entirely
Whom ever's left needs to follow suit
>abandon the game for RS3
? that IS rs3. they did the same shit in osrs though.
>they did the same shit in osrs though.
>OSRS is even more fricking pozzed.
I don't remember OSRS being more fricking pozzed than this shit, what the frick is going on since I last played?
they did
most of these changes as well (the alis in the desert, gypsy aris is just called aris) and they have a pride event every year. there's probably more, that's just off the top of my head.
RS3 didn't have a pride parade when OSRS did.
OSRS is even more fricking pozzed.
I enjoy playing RS3. It's better than 2007-shit.
why
I would wager that with all the MTX, RS3 could rival OSRS in profitability.
Every quest after Elder God Wars has been nothing but sjw bullshit. In my mind the game ended once we banished zamorak and the gods at the end of the Elder God Wars. Best ending imo.
Shame Zaros plotline is left unresolved, i was legit interested in his plot and now he left for shadow milk and hasn't come back
the devs have been salty for over a decade that people liked zaros, at least he didn't get the zammy treatment that wiped a decade of "character development" off the table lmao
>out of every character
>every single god, mortal and everything in between
>the one who gets character development
>fricking saradomin?????
>Defeat fricking zamorak
>Lose powers
>Confirmed that was the height of the players powers and that they will never get that strong lorewise ever again
So why should I give a shit going forward? You literally defeated runescape satan, nothing going forward apart from maybe Xau Tak should ever really be a threat. But, of course they scrapped the Xau Tak storyline a while ago so whats the point?
>so whats the point?
showing off your all 99s in some shitzone no one bothers to go to anyway
Did they? Isn't he related to undead and we're getting Necromancy?
>they scrapped the Xau Tak storyline a while ago
What? Whats the fricking point then? RS3 is currently in a state where it wants new players in but also has far too much commitment for lore and quest arcs to be truly inviting. It's confused. Just bring Zaros back as the final boss and end it already
>Zaros
Anon... He ain't coming back. He to the store to pick up milk and cigarettes. It's over.
Again?
Got my 500 enraged solo title and haven't played since. Was satisfied with that. Seemed like a good sendoff for the game. Everything beyond reestablishing the edicts is noncanon, and I don't care what happens after.
for me runescape lore ended with void stares back and the ritual of the mahjarrat
same except desert treasure
ROTM would be a good ending too tbh. Wrapped things up nicely, excluding the introduction of the dragonkin which was obviously meant to keep you invested. Although, they were pretty cool too.
It is the 5th Age again. Not even joking
From 2021 to this year we only had two quest lines that are pure crap, nothing else being released.
Zamorak civil war in 2021, after Jagex destroyed all the character development they had built up over the years involving Zamorak and some of his allies, they made this really lazy miniquests and called it "quests", all about three self-insert female characters being girl bosses with MCU tier humor instead of british humor. The quests are incredibly boring, with little development and no significant rewards. Your character was extremely limited in what they could choose, including what you would say during quests, with no speech options.
Yes, you, the player and your character were simply put on a railroad and forced to indulge new devs self-inserting characters. At the conclusion of this Quest Line, one of the most mysterious and interesting characters in the game, in which players have been waiting for ten years to seeing him doing something incredible is killed in the laziest and stupidest way possible, so that in his place the female character (who used to be good and his apprentice) betray and kill him.
Meanwhile, self-insert MCU character number 3 just fools you, over and over again, even though every single thing she does is extremely predictable.
And the third self-insert characters, the black daughter of Saradomin is now supreme leader of all human kingdoms, for reasons, and the quest literally ends with a horribly long and cringe cultscene with the girlboss number one killing everyone who used to be her ally, to be the new ZAMORAK 2.0, while the Saradomin daughter SINGS for almost two minutes straight. Yes, singing in a cult scene, without any options to skip it.
Guthix should have never died, all the quests after TWW was just proving that he was right about the gods from day 1.
>singing in a cult scene, without any options to skip it.
Makes me glad I never turned on audio for this game, I've always played it with sound off after hearing the sound effects the first time. It was always too goofy for me, and now it seems it's too cringey.
I hate how I came back to this game after quitting in 2013 during Lucien's reign and picking up after Ritual of the Mahjarrat, getting hooked on Sliske's end game era only to deal with progressive horseshit.
>Singing in a cult cene
THEY PUT IT IN THE FRICKIN' LOG IN SCREEN SO YOU WOULD HEAR EVERY TIME LOGGING IN.
Sure, it was only a few months, but good god I had to speedrun that login screen every time the game loaded.
Can't you set it to default after clicking on the gear icon? Or is the Linux client different from the windows client? Confused here.
The worst part is that we can't even enjoy OSRS anymore either because they're been slowly adding all woke bullshit in it.
2023 quest line is about building this fort, where the sawmill used to be.
In short, you become a Duke, yes you can be treated as gender neutral and have your own snowflake version of Duke. Most of those in charge of the fort are women, including one who is a non-binary butler who likes to write stories about murder and knows everyone, so she's the one who decides who gets to take on new duties at the fort, not you.
It's quite amusing how Jagex fails to notice that they've created a character that basically works thanks to nepotism and diversity hiring.
Again, yourself have no saying, you're just railroad.
Diversity hires don't do anything significant, you remain the one who does everything in the Fort.
The cook hired because of nepotism (butler's sister) is was an assassin and tried to kill the Queen and King of Varrock, for some stupid reason. In this same quest, the Duke of Edgeville is gay, his ex-husband (a flamboyant masculine gay dude) is now the new cook. I actually liked this characters, at least the bi dude was a funny chracters, but all the females ones...
Now, for some reason, there's a new dukedom near Lumbridge that has NEVER been mentioned in any piece of lore before, or doesn't even appear on the map. This new dukedom is way more rich than Lumbridge and even Varrock itself. And guess what? The leader is a badass old BLACK woman!
I'll give credit, if it wasn't for the sjw stuff inserted in this quest, it would be good. The best one from 2023.
Continuing with the questline and this conclusion, it is quite obvious that Jagex only did this as an excuse to do:
1-Ignore the Construction rework that has been asked for for years.
2-Push the lore for Necromancia release
3-Make Queen Ellamaria a main character and Misthalin a nation ruled by no-binary or women. Did you hated her before? For years and years? Nope, now you must love her!
And the quest from yesterday, being all about Queen Ellamaria.
The irony they can't see in front of their faces is baffling.
>the gay dude from edgeville constantly saying how he knows X because his 3rd ex-whatever died in a tragic boating accident
>eventually mentions his 5th ex-husband or some shit, you immediately assume he died
>what? no! hes fine we're still friends actually
that quest got precisely one laugh out of me
Amazing how a quest like that was the best we've had in two years.

I'm just happy there's an unironic RS3 thread on Ganker.
this seems like more of an ironic thread to me given it was made specifically to (rightfully) complain about the raptor change. but i'll take it
oh a good portion of modern rs3 gameplay is complaining about things so this is completely unironic
It's not an RS3 thread.
It's people b***hing about woke shit, again. It's the only thing people ever talk about when this game, either version of it, comes up on Ganker.
It's so old. I'm so tired of it.
Everyone's tired of it. Maybe people don't like woke shit? Political correctness was mocked and hated in the 90s for a reason. It's terrible and it makes life suck for no benefit what so ever.
Maybe don't continually shove this garbage into games where no one asked for it and no one wants it, even the absolutely buck-broken sheeple on Jagex's social media of choice hate it.
What do you want to talk about anon? All the quests in the last year have been shit and there's been no substantial updates since zammy.
You want to talk about the good quests? I love the Zanik quests and While guthix sleeps. Zaros quests in sixth age were good and seren fight was fun.
Best thing about it was that not only were you just some guy, you were a fricking idiot who gets tricked time and time again or constantly does stupid shit accidently.
Osrs had a good one with Dragon slayer 2 where you go to find out a urban legend and end up causing a fricking war it's great
The Zanik stuff legitimately gripped me towards the end which I didn't at the time think this game was capable of.
Also she's cute.
I haven't done most of the RS3-exclusive quests yet as I'm mostly an OSRS player, but I do love the quests in this game and I wish they'd port more of them over. OSRS has so many dead end quest series that have sequels in RS3.
>Also she's cute.
totes adorbs
do not post her Mighty Fall model
>first they made her hideous
>then they realize they want the player to like her so they made her cuter

that's the best version of zanik
RuneScape HD was a great time with lots of player interactions beyond the usual "wc lvl?" tier questions thanks to all the various minigames like clan wars, bounty hunter, great orb project, etc. Too bad it was also super moronic with trade limits and no old fashioned PKing allowed.
The restricted trade era is underrated.
The restricted trade era was a mixed bag. It showed Jagex's strongest side: minigames. Oh my God, the minigames were fantastic. Pest Control. Fist of Guthix. Castle Wars.
It also showed their leftist/statist moronation: trade controls. The black market was thriving regardless of their "state" regulations and could probably count as the equivalent of a mini-Prohibition era. They should have embraced the emergent gameplay and the gray market and RuneScape would be more brilliant than EVE Online by now. Affected by bots? Cut into the bot business yourself by offering offline training that yields 0.25x the XP on a target skill. Affected by gold sellers? Sell gold bags for real money, although they admittedly did this better indirectly by using bonds as an elegant solution to the problem. Such wasted potential.
THe separation of in game and irl resources is sacrosanct.
Sure.
>meanwhile, in Zybez forums
"SELLING LVL 120 ACC PM ME!"
"SELL WHITE PHAT 8 GRAND USD!"
As much as I want what I said
to be true, RWT is unavoidable. I am bamboozled about how to model this in my mind. To say what I did it to stick my head in the sand. But what other options exist? The most sophisticated idea in practice right now is the subscription token. Sub tokens affect the ingame economy in subtle ways, but they don't literally dump gold and cause hyperinflation, as has happened in some asian bygone MMOs.
Since RWT is unavoidable, control the flow of RWT. Guiding it to become profitable is worse than outright banning it. Bonds ingame are a good place to start since they're tied to in-game membership time and players can buy and sell them for in-game gold.
Leveling skills is the most tedious part of RuneScape and the number one cause for bots, never mind having a bot standing on one spot looting the respawn of a law rune over and over. You could combat this in several ways: allow for limited botting features built into the game, i.e. bringing back sleeping bags to level your character outside of the game while also banning things like bots mining coal. Having pets or summons with a set time limit scavenge for resources is a good step but underdone, increase the automation level by allowing players to level up their pets to allow increased gathering of resources. You're in a videogame, allow for automation. You could even design an elite skill that does this for players as a pseudo-programming thing combining runecrafting and magic to create "golems" or finagle the upcoming necromancy skill to make skeletons mine/cut/fish for you. You could even have a cheeky quip with a group of skeletons asking each other their levels while skilling.
It's all too late for that now though. The rot is too deep.
Offline training is for idle games. Throne and Liberty is an upcoming MMO that was hyped for a while; After the first reveal all interest was lost, in part because they showed off offline training. "Pay to not play the game"
I don't think giving supply for the RWT demand is the right path.
>I don't think giving supply for the RWT demand is the right path.
It is the right path, because leveling up skills is only the basics in RS. The real content has always been quests and PKing since RS Classic before minigames were thrown in to supplement level training, and to show off your levels in places like the duel arena. If you're not leveling, you're on the way to leveling, but it's always been so tedious to get there after level 75. The interaction and thus collision with other players is the core of RuneScape, everything else is dross.
I have not touched runescape in years do not tell me this is the chosen commander zannik. tell me this is just a shitty edit. not made by jagex.
It’s not, it’s used for a quest long after. Zanik is left untouched during the rs2 era quests
the fact that the old quests use her older models is pretty bad, frankly
so much of the game exists in this strange limbo state where its basically rs2 running in the rs3 engine and it just looks terrible
would
Yeah she's prett-OH GOD NO MAKE IT STOP
it is genuinely unbelievable that they managed to make her look worse than
>Best thing about it was that not only were you just some guy, you were a fricking idiot who gets tricked time and time again or constantly does stupid shit accidently.
>Osrs had a good one with Dragon slayer 2 where you go to find out a urban legend and end up causing a fricking war it's great
Dragon slayer 2 is a shit quest, and the fact you think it is good is fricking insane. The plot is fricking stupid as frick. Bob the cat, a legendary icon to the game dies by your player character jumping away from which ends up hitting him. The bosses are fricking fanfic tier of writing.
Why the frick isn't the dragonkin killing the player character and his gang they moment they meet? They had literally zero weapons that could harm that dragonkin. ZERO
Bob the cat shit was stupid i'll agree but the dragonkin thing was explained by it tying it's lifeforce to Galvek so not needing banite is fine as it's clearly highlighted as an exception.
The dragonkin is also hinted at previously having met the player (assume to be explored later) so it's fine too. He does also try to kill the player with galvek.
>Bob the cat, a legendary icon to the game dies by your player character jumping away from which ends up hitting him
Holy shit its true, i laughed hard at this cutscene for some reason lmao
They actually changed that cutscene like a year ago so bob now jumps in front of you to protect you instead so his death isn't as fricking pathetic
>bob the cat dies
No fricking way. Why the frick did runescape 3 devs do this?????????????????????????????????????????
/rsg/ exists and is alright. just don't go to /osg/ , they are the most annoying group of people on the planet.
/rsg/ is fine but the threads are very slow. The current thread's been up since yesterday and I've seen threads that have been going on for a week or longer.
/osg/ is full of autists and psychopaths. They have some weird thread culture where they don't quote reply one another and they all talk about the game in an ironic "I don't even like playing this" sort of way where they mock one another for even having the game running.
Legitimately one of the most tedious groups of people on the website.
i completely agree, which sucks because i primarily play osrs but the general is totally unusable. strange because the people i meet ingame are (usually) pretty chill
>strange because the people i meet ingame are (usually) pretty chill
none of us are as bad as all of us
there is a critical mass of autism beyondwhich cool things cannot occur
>rs3 general is mostly slow going and pretty chill, just with a few autists like any general
>osg is filled to burst with attention whoring trannies and unironic head cases and discussion of the game is impossible
youd think itd be the opposite
There's always some game that attracts the filth and they clog up some area away from the rest of us.
Speaking of which, is Katawa Shoujo General still around?
Yep, game hasn't had an update or a sequel in a decade and it's still going. No fricking clue what they could possibly be discussing at this point.
This is more like if Metroid was just the armor and then it was retconned there was a human inside the entire time
From what I recall of it, KSG exists for itself now. It's like a tiny pocket of /LULZ/ autists who keep the threads alive simply because they have nowhere else to go.
/ksg/ is just LULZ with a cripplefricker theme. It's basically a Discord server where people whine about tfwnogf.
I wouldnt have to think about it if gayex didn't make it the central theme of the past 10 quests
This is deviantart OC shit, having a samus reveal is just a cherry on top.
Runescape wasn't and shouldn't be about super hero main characters, leave that to WoW. RS is at its best when a farmer drops his keys down the drain, asks you to get them and his drain pipe leads to some nightmare puzzle dungeon.
>Runescape wasn't and shouldn't be about super hero main characters, leave that to WoW
granted I never gave a shit about wow but don't they do nothing but complain about superhero main characters in that ever since they became a thing?
A decade late for that, world guardian.
OSRS still does that but RS3 you're the donut steel super hero World Guardian.
It's a shame. I feel like over the years the devs completely missed what people even like about Runescape and they tried really hard to turn the game into WoW.
One of the great things about RS is that your character is just some guy. You have no special abilities that are unique to you, you're not a member of an elite group, you're not nobility or the chosen one, you are *just some guy.*
A very strong and resourceful "some guy," but still just some random dude.
I stopped playing RS when the grand exchange came out. Turning the player into the chosen one makes me glad I did.
There's no better way to feel like a part of the world in an MMO than to just make you an average Joe Moe Schmoe. Then it turned into a fricking JRPG and now we're in some crap filler arc with the worst writing ever
It honestly makes it cooler when your average Joe Schmoe does the impossible to the genuine shock of everyone around him, like when you kill Ranis in Taste of Hope.
It definitely helps with the power creep factor, like WoW and FFXIV have this issue where your character goes around eating gods for breakfast so the audience scoffs when a somewhat mundane villain is able to pose a threat to you.
OSRS definitely nails this with their quest design. Unless its directly a sequel to a quest you've done, NPCs will rarely know you and rarely show any respect unless they're conning you.
The Feud is literally Ali Morrisane tricking you into buying like 30gp in bullshit from him in the most convoluted fricking way possible and it's great
the grounding help a lot, them moments that are suppose to be impactful stay impactful
I've liked the leadup to DT2 so far, I like how instead of the usual "you are the chosen one!!1!" bullshit the Mahjarrat basically treat you like a useful moron that happened to be around
>It honestly makes it cooler when your average Joe Schmoe does the impossible to the genuine shock of everyone around him, like when you kill Ranis in Taste of Hope.
But it doesn't make sense. Ranis is literally higher tier vampire. He fought in the fricking god wars. OSRS literally forget that. RANIS IS SUPPOSE TO BE 10X MORE POWERFUL THEN FRICKING VANSTROM. How the frick did we even kill him in osrs? It made no sense.
In rs3 you kill vanstorm only for ranis to find out and he would have killed you if it wasn't for the female vampire killing her own BROTHER. morons like you are why osrs quest design sucks so fricking much.
>nooo but ranis is super powerful! IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE
shut the frick up, christ
we had a stupid unwieldy hard to predict weapon that was double-blessed and ranis was full of himself and thought he couldn't lose, that's how
Lets not pretend that Ranis wasn't a missed oppurtunity in 3. He literally gets merced before having any screentime while in osrs he's a convining bastard and a sick frick who experiments on people, it makes a more engaging villain.
I feel some changes are completely fine as long as it makes for more engaging content. The major beats are the same
Let's not pretend that OSRS taste of hope is better then branches of darkmeyer. In fact let's not even pretend that OSRS Vanstrom Klause is better then the RS3 version.
Even OSRS forgets what makes Runescape special, so tired of the game trying so hard to make everything le epic ultra enemy boss
Gotta make everything to appeal to the ultra-autists that pay for multiple memberships, anon. Frick the average player, we need shit xp rates and tick knowledge for everything now.

>I don't see Runescape surviving after this.
The OSRS community riots regularly, this is normal. If someone is playing RS3 willingly, this won't chase them off.
This lol, there's a reason they show Oldschool players only on their homepage but mix both Oldschool and RS3 together on RS3's homepage, if you are still playing RS3 instead of moving onto Oldschool or WoW or Final Fantasy or Genshin then you just want to see how fricked the game can get.
I can't believe a character that showed off masculine traits while covering up in an entire suit of armor was actually a woman in disguise all along!
>seren's entire story can be summed up in two words
wonder if jagex intended to make the most easily hateable character in media?
You know what, she's a selfish b***h but she's a pretty compelling antagonist.
Good boss theme too.
Give RS3 all the shit you want, but their music always slaps. Glory Of Combat is godtier.
While the game has certainly grown in a direction not everyone likes, I appreciate Jagex just going hog wild with RS3 and introducing batshit crazy nonsense all the time.
I genuinely think OSRS's polling system is bad. It's lead to this situation where Jagex is afraid to work anything truly substantial because they're afraid it'll get voted down and then sometimes even when something gets voted in, they end up cancelling it anyway like the DT2 prayerbook.
They shouldn't need to poll things like new content. Just add shit to the game, players will eat it up. Also they're taking way too long to port over quests from RS3 that are sequels to existing quests. Land of the Goblins was over a year ago.
the final redpill of osrs is realizing everything bad happening with that game is the fault of the reddit dev team bandwagoning upvotes with epic meems
i agree to some extent. it is depressing how slowly osrs gets updates. months and months will go by without any meaningful content updated (especially if you don't care about pvp). it's sad
Some of the "remasters" of older tracks disgust me (Royale just flat out plays the wrong notes in the intro and I didn't bother listening to it past that, Shadowlands was replaced with a totally different song, a few others I don't remember but they fricked up) but the vast majority of the new stuff is pretty damn good. Really wish they could have someone fix up some of the godawful OS tracks like The Forlorn Homestead or Revenants.

>frick off b***h
>she literally BLOWS HERSELF to pieces
This should have been it.
I forgot how batshit insane seren truly was. If their goal was to make a crazy b***h, they succeeded in spades.
When you really read the shit she has done through the lore, you realize why Guthix made no exceptions. She was batshit insane and it is fricking amazing how nobody in the community saw it until the entire elder god questline. The moment Zaros said he was made to be intelligent driven god vs Seren being the emotional, we should have known. Extremely redpill and I literally do not see how the frick the jmod managed to sneak this past the SJW mods.
How much did Guthix Know about Zaros? I thought they barley interacted or was just vaguely aware of eachothers existance. I left Runescape years ago right when saradomin and Zamorak landed in Lumby.
From what I remember not much although he directly warns the player not to trust him/underestimate him
he never met zaros personally, but considering what he heard from seren, saw of the empire and realized of his heritage. guthix was 200% dead on to tell you that motherfricker saw everyone and everything as mere tools to his ultimate goal
What was his ultimate goal? Spill everything cuz im prob never gonna play it again
become/kill the elder gods and uplift the mortal races into an incredibly advanced civilization
the second seren has a woman moment and everything goes FUBAR he fricks off to the shadow realm to probably get flanderized into a mustache twirling villain and/or kill the shadow realm possibly-maybe-elder god
Zaros wanted the power of an elder god (aka life creators) to prevent gods from fricking with him and to rule over a perfect kingdom. Elder gods told him YWNBAREG(Elder god) and told him to seethe harder so he left.
He then steals Saradomins crown and bails into another reality to seek down the power of shadow anima which is the equivalent of aids for an elder god which he’ll use to ascend into the opposite of an elder god. Him doing this essentially sets the apocalypse into action and makes the elder gods declare war on earth
damn they should have just stuck to silly quests with British humor, this is some fricking MCU writing
fricking this, gower quest was kino
I've been doing a backlog of older quests that were needed for some area tasks and it's almost astounding how genuinely good they were. Dialogue was short and snappy in an industry where RPGs have moved on to wordswordswordswords and a lot of the humor really landed. I liked it a lot better where the MC was just some schmuck that gets roped into helping out all of Runescapes weirdos instead of le chozen wun.
The newer OSRS quests are still like that, mostly.
Below Ice Mountain is entirely about the player getting roped into a a tomb robbing as a useful idiot by some bandits and then discarded once he's no longer useful. It even had some funny dialogue.
Getting Ahead is about agreeing to kill a monster and bring back its head. Except it had no head, so you have to make one out of clay and fool the farmer into thinking it's real.
The player character is still just some nobody who will do anything for anyone if they start a quest. The Chosen One nonsense is not present at all.
I swear to God everything that you said after "and told him to seethe harder so he left" feels like an entirely different game or an entirely different subject like you immediately diverted. That's not the old RuneScape I know
Seren story was fricking amazing. The fact sliske was like "Seren? oh yeah the crazy ass b***h" was fricking funny. Even Zaro was like "my sister is not a intelligent person, but a person driven with emotions". the moment mah died she been riding high on woman feelings.
Can I get a quick rundown on Menaphos? Wasn't it their way to test the waters for expansion-sized updates but it flopped hard or something? Is any of the content relevant/quests worth doing?
oh i remember expansions
they recycled the ideas into regular content like ambassador
never did get the teased POH rework though
did menaphos flop tho? it was pretty active when i played. a lot of the content was worth doing, on iron at least. i remember wcing and fishing there frequently, as well as doing some dailies like squishing the scarabs and doing the prayer shit at the obelisks.
might not be as important after you max though, and most rs3 players are maxed from what i've seen.
mid range content always flounders even harder than early game content
i still use the bank/ge there and the player owned dungeon is nice to have
yeah i think the bank was also the closest bank to a summoning training spot that i could access. also just cozy.
never maxed slayer so i never would up having a player owned dungeon, sounded cool though.
it's definitely useful for leveling especially fishing and wc
but as you noted not as useful for higher level players
the worst part is for almost all of those seren is somehow portrayed as not being a fricktard
I forget if it's azzy or whichever mahjarrat does some weird apology to her of all fricking people for instance
i always portrayed azzy thanking her as his way of being a smug bastard
>thanks seren because of you we became incredibly strong hyper elite wizards, gods and demigods while also finding zaros
They spent too much of the development time designing the area itself and then tacked on 120 slayer onto it as if it was a good idea to add more to their plate, then they filled the city with glorified chores that they then made hard-required to do the quests just to force players to access content they wouldn't have bothered with otherwise. And then the quests themselves didn't live up to the hype either. It soured Jagex and the playerbase on expansions simply because they don't fricking know how to plan anything other than skills and fricking suck at building out a huge content update in one go.
If all that time spent on 120 slayer (it was one dungeon with mostly-copypaste monsters and a system for what is basically slayer pokemon) had instead been spent on the actual update I imagine it would have gone considerably more smoothly. Alas.

I seriously doubt OSRS sticking the landing with that quest, lord of vampyrium is fricking insane.
Shame about the fricking wet fart conclusion right after it, i like the events in it of Vanes coming to a peace treaty but the way it happened was lame as frick
>https://runescape.wiki/w/The_Lord_of_Vampyrium
Lord of vampyrium is PEAK quest. I would argue it is the best written quest in runescape history. Drakan plays with the player character and his friends as foods. He is the hunter. He is having the time of his fricking LIFE the entire quest hunting us and trying kill us. The final fight with it being 5 phases is fricking amazing and kinda hard if you are bad at the game.
my only worry is the osrs version of the quest will just design the drakan fight with the intent to be farmed by bots for piles of loot like every other quest boss these days
the idea of fighting a major quest boss with shit gear, okay weapons and limited resources as he slowly hunts and corners you is so fricking cool and i cant imagine osrs will accomplish it. at least the drakan speech at the end of not-branches of darkmeyer was good
>Lord of Vampyrium
As an enjoyer of questing in both Rs3 and OSRS, I can confirm that Lord of Vampyrium is probably the best. I really can't think of anything from both games that comes close. It's that fricking kino.
sometimes runescape pulls out really good fricking writing
for as much as the maze in sliske's endgame fricking sucks it has so much character interaction and great moments in it

>zaros telling zamorak that the loyalty he feels is false and to embrace his hate

>azzanadra trying to play the mediator only for sliske to tell azzy he killed his brother and azzy finally getting mad
>sliske being pissed off at the dragonkin the entire time for smashing through the maze
>meeting jas and realizing just how fricking pathetic you and the other gods are
>beating the everloving shit out of sliske for the beatdown he gave you during kindred spirits
trying to play the mediator only for sliske to tell azzy he killed his brother and azzy finally getting mad
oh my god I forgot this. It gets even better when you realize that azzy daughter has been working for sliske a long time, and even AFTER THOUSAND OF YEARS of people being "sliske is sus ngl" azzy was like "he might be weird, but he worship zaros and is totally with us", only to be reward with truth that sliske was fricking with from the start.
i felt so bad for laughing
>guys we cant just kill sliske cmon lets reason with him
>hey azzy remember when your brother died and we killed every single mahkorrat in bloody vengeance
>yeah i still miss him
>...remember who brought his corpse back?
>ye- oh no
>
>i think we should kill sliske
Frick what everyone was saying back then with him being le joker. Sliske was fricking based.
people missed that sliske being le jokermans was entirely an act and that he was extremely serious, threatening and calculating. you get fooled into the act until you find his journals during kindred spirits and he just drops the character and act to literally fricking pummel you into a bloody pulp
realizing that he was never a whacky for teh evulz kind of guy and instead slowly planning a universe-wide conflict for a bunch of stupid elder artefacts out of boredom was genuinely horrifying
genuinely one of the best villains the game has had
I don't which quest it was maybe endgame or kindred spirit where you tell Sliske you are still a supporter of his and he goes on a fricking rant about how much he fricking despise you and hate the living shit out of you and any relationship you though your player character had with him was nothing.
You would have to be a real stupid frick to side with him anyway
He's literally me.
>but sliske-sama i love you!
>goes on a 20 textbox fricking meltdown about how he wants to fricking kill you
sorry man i just wanted to lighten the mood
honestly, I think Zaros should have done the same. ZAROS DOESNT NOT CARE FOR YOU. Like holy shit the only reason why he kept us around was because we were a useful resource. The moment when Jas told Zaros he would never be a elder god, he realize he everything on our plane on existence was worthless to him, so he hatch a plan to go to erebus.
I remember reddit seething over that when he's always been a calculating autist with little regard for lessers
I honestly don't even care if he gives 0 shits about the planet
who the frick else are you going to worship? the snow imp? armadyl actively hates being a god, zim zam just tried to actively kill us, seren is a schizo, guthix is ded

I just want to return to monke.
>you sick frick
unironically kino ass fricking villain. His entire fricking race abandons their culture for the easy safe life, the safety of the "empire", stores where you can buy human blood. Never wanting to risk your own life for a meal. He didn't want his fricking race to become literally basedcucks who can no longer hunt. Dude spends eons collecting blood so he could force teleport his entire city back to vampirum to deny them the safety of gilenor.

Is it okay to say I prefer Anime Zanik over 2007 Zanik? I want to frick her in the ass.
We all want to frick her in the ass. The devs designed her for us to want to frick her in the ass. Her journal basically says she touches herself to the thought of us.

Signature heroes as a whole were a mistake and the Raptor was arguably the worst. I guess only super ultra mega morons play RS3 now.

Would be cool if she was a qt3.14 but as it stands now she looks generic. With all the hair styles and skin colors available, they come up with this for someone who goes around killing the frick out of big ol' monsters?
Make her into a gyaru or something gayex.
I dopnt give a shit about modern RS lore, the whole thing went to shit with EoC and The World Wakes was such an abortion that I stopped caring at all after that. Just mashed spacebar through cutscenes
>tfw my friend got a hcim account with the 20 year cape
god I wish I didn't leave tutorial island on my alts
What? Why?
I have not played or thought about Runescape since before the combat triangle was introduced, and when I see these images of it now you all post I have no fricking idea what's happened. I almost want to make a new account just to experience the bullshit.
RS3 is hard to get into these days if you're a brand new player but it's worth it for the amount of ridiculous nonsense in the game.
it's fun. make an ironman. use the wiki. do the quests.
>says REDDIT is LIVID
>proceeds to be LIVID
In that way he's not wrong.
It's hilarious how gayex can spurn the playerbase for years and years and years and the addicts just keep coming back
How many real players are there even in RS3 nowadays? Most worlds outside of peak hours are extremely empty, with populations below 100.
too many for how shit jagex and their game are
There just genuinely isn't another game out there like Runescape.
>There just genuinely isn't another English game out there like Runescape.
ftfy
The Brits had a good run. It all ends in dust.
i don't know, i think he is right. there really is nothing else like runescape. the closest thing would probably be some kind of idle game. i've always found it strange that, with all its success, rs has never really had any imitators.
The closest I can think of is like, Fantasy Life for the 3DS or maybe Rune Factory.
There's also some indie game Runescape clone that's very obviously trying to be a clone. I forget what it's called.
First with Moia, the biggest fricking half breed jobber on the planet, suddenly becoming a girlboss and Zamorak's strongest follower even stronger than Mahjarrats that literally absorbed an Elder God, and now this?
Absolute hack tier writing. This is why AI needs to replace writers
Did you forget about Adrasteia? Black chick introduced earlier this year that's Saradomin's daughter and took over his role as ruler of humans.
Thing with her is that she was pretty much a non character. Only a passing mention here or there and as a bargaining tool for the Stone of Jas when Saradomin wins the race. It's obvious why they made her black, but her being anything was never too important
Raptor has been around for a while and every time you see him he's either smacking down monsters, tanking QBD, and commenting on your achievements (beating the balance elemental, nomad etc)
Making Raptor into some basic b***h barmaid who just happened to become queen is quite literally the dumbest possible change ever, even dumber than Moia running like a b***h from Kerapac while the WG, hannibus, and vicendithas stand their ground and immediately acting like she could kill all of you without breaking a sweat, and then immediately afterwards she starts whooping all of zammy's greatest followers all by her self.
Peak hack writing
All I remember about Adrasteia is that she was a negress that was FRICKING hot and her queen outfit wanted me to ravage her so bad. im sorry my holy god, but jesus christ she needs to get dicked down. Moia too.
>Saradomin confirmed to be regularly going to karjama to educate the savages people
based.
>saradomin forgive me for what I am about to do but this jungle queen must be colonized with my asgarnian seed
Black person
Saradomin got BLACKED? LMFAO
either he adopted her or saradomin is COLONIZING some prime grade brown pussy
It's heavily implied that being a God means being infertile. You can have kids prior to ascending (Zamorak, Azzanadra, Guthix) but not after.
>saradomin never PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP'd some delicious brown before turning into a fricking blueberry
don't worry I'm sure they'll find a way to retcon that too so they can have gay babies or whatever
She's adopted lol. Saradomin should have just raided Karjama with his blue dick
No..sadly shes adopted. Saradomin real family died ages ago from natural death
I'm scared desert treasure 2 for osrs is going to pull the sliske trigger. Sliske is the only Black person who uses shadow realm shit and the old man got a miniquest where you kill barrows and destroy the device instead of giving it to Azzy.
I can't handle more Sliske ruses
Kinda surprised. Rs3 community is more homosexual than the osrs one, yet the osrs barely reacted to that update a few months back where they gender swapped a bunch of NPCs. It's lame how utterly pozzed the mods are.
this is because the majority of osrs discussion takes place on r*ddit, which is full of trannies, homos and ultraliberals.
I went there like a week ago and they still have a homosexual flag in the sub banner. In fricking July. Were deleting threads complaining about the gay event too. Bunch of gross wienersuckers.
Of all the video game communities to throw a tantrum, it HAD to be fricking Runescape.
That's what makes it funnier though.
Are you kidding? The game is very well known for its playerbase throwing a fit about anything and everything.
you do realize that basically every live service game's community throws a tantrum like once a week, right?
who am i kidding, you're on Ganker. of course you know this.
>RS3

What the absolute frick is this thread
Is this made by an AI
Enjoy 2.5-ticking trees or whatever the frick it is you do in osrs I guess.
The depth of content and cadence of updates is better for sure.
I do like a lot of things about old school better though, like the simplicity of its gameplay and its artstyle.
have you actually played rs3? i mostly play osrs but rs3 quests are very good
osrs quest design is peak reddit and fricking garbage. Their best quest is either a straight badly done copy from RS3 (song of elf, taste of hope) or straight up bad (dragon slayer 2)
Are you going to sit here and tell me plagues end was unironically good?
are you going to act like song of the elf is better? Having your most loyal FRIEND turn into a traitor because "he wasnt trying to resurrect zamorak, but SEREN! and *proceed to betray" is good is moronic.
>Not playing peak quest
>literally called dead and buried because they believe they are being progressive and forward looking by shoe-horning a woman into an obviously male character.
They had many years to correct this and they allow the Pride Parade to happen. I stop caring.
it's hilarious that the author of this comic really thought he was owning people with this. this is "i am unlikeable", the comic.
Im aware and I dislike the author, but that comic fit this situation perfectly.
He'll find a way to c**t away that tiny modicum of self-reflection and introspection. Probably by b***hing about something the GOP likes.
b***h be ugly as frick with 2 giant face moles. Also it's just ugly as frick in general.

that shit was and still is completely moronic, it's not wonder only bots "play" this tripe anymore, there are so many better MMO's and RPG to enjoy and you play the most bottom of the barrel cookie clicker shit

that's where you're wrong, moron. they both have shit tons of bots.

>OSRS gets a woodcutting change at almost at the exact same time
>Instantly flooded with unknowable amounts of bots
I do think this is mostly because of RS3 inflation making it less worthwhile, but OSRS is also much simpler and doesn't have annoying "plz no afk" mechanics built into gathering skills.
>New players always outing themselves in RS3 as OSRS players doing RS3 Ironman
>Only new "players" in OSRS are bots preparing accounts
Did they remove splashing yet? That shit is more of a joke than anything in RS3 and they are preparing to increase the lobby timer in RS3 for maximum afk-scape.
osrs has an open source client so making bots is extremely simple
Unironically they should add 117 hd to their C++ client and then just ban runelite
If getting rid of some qol plugins lets us get rid of bots once and for all I would happily take that.
>Did they remove splashing yet?
No. I remember when I saw splashing as a new player I stopped and told the guy that he'd have better accuracy if he took off his armor because I didn't understand what he was doing.
Granted I only started playing last year.
> they are preparing to increase the lobby timer in RS3 for maximum afk-scape.
In fairness a 5 minute kick timer is fricking stupid.
I can't even go take a shit without being booted back to the lobby.
Eat more fiber.
It used to be 45 seconds.
Eat less fiber. Fiber is toxic.
>Did they remove splashing yet?
In OSRS going back years now, every main character NPC in content updates has almost always been female. It's fricking moronic.
Yep rs3 lore sucks ass. Stupid grandiose shit that is way too far removed from what made the lore interesting in the first place.
No, you are gay.
if dragon quest can't get away with the whole chosen one shit, what made them think they could with a fricking MMO of all things? I've seen isukai anime less of a wank fest and that's saying alot
here's how to fix the lore:
>no direct god shit, keep it vague, talking to gods directly is moronic, also retcon the elder gods or make them better
>retcon the chosen one tripe and anything else that reeks of special snowflake
>actually make the eastern lands
>finish the old quest lines people actually like
>more shitpost quests, not everything needs to be serious grimdark edge shit, get the gower bros to make stuff if need be
>remove gay shit, ban anyone who b***hes about it
there I fixed your idle clicker game.
>more shitpost quests
BASED
Gower quest was the last time I had fun with RS3
yeah that's why I brought it up, some of the best parts of the old quests was the humor by the old writers the gower quest fricking proves that the old writing was better, those new gaylords just want to self insert and virtue signal while wanking off with the edgelord writing.
hell even those old "ask an NPC" letters were pretty top tier.
The start of RS3 to Sliske's Endgame had genuinely great writing. Not sure what went wrong in the Elder God series after that but it just felt really lackluster to me for some reason.
The issue some people have is they've replaced every competent male character with some newbie female.
>Saradomin replaced by a literal artist insert-daughter
>Zamorak and Bilrach replaced by Moia
>Azzanadra replaced by Trindine, the most insufferable "le witty quip" character in the game
>Raptor is fricking Ellamaria
I'm sure they'll kill Thok soon and give his role to Byrll.
thok is too stupid to die
im pretty sure you could actually atomize him and he would just punch his way back into existence
>I'm sure they'll kill Thok soon and give his role to Byrll.
please no
at the very least let Pretty Lass out of the dungeon
replaced by Trindine, the most insufferable "le witty quip" character in the game
I like Trindine, feels like the only character who is coping about the fact her empire is gone and civilization and progress has turned back centuries because of the effect of the gods wars. also i want to frick azzy daughter.
All OS needs is The Chosen Commander and While Guthix Sleeps and it will have the only good 3scape quests.
Finish Sea Slug, Penguin and Myreque while you're at it.
>Pillar in the Wound but it might actually be good

the music makes the fight a solid 10/10
There's two difficulties. Normal mode and hard mode. In hard mode everything has 2x HP, Zuk randomly spawns walls of fire while you're clearing waves, and there's a final phase to the Zuk fight. There's also 3 challenges in between some of the waves(kill 6 monsters in a short time, kill a single monster with high defense in a short time, take 0 damage from 4 very strong attacks). To get the hybrid cape you have to complete all the challenges during a hardmode kill. Normal mode is easy to do, but a flawless hardmode run for the hybrid cape is pretty tough.
It's been 2 years and 2/3 of /rsg/ still gets filtered by normal mode
Except they could have brought back another Tzhaar related character.
You know, the one the MC trained themselves? The one that the entire TzHaar storyline was based around? Ga'al-Xox?
The battle could have just been you vs the waves of TzekHaar and Ga'al Xox at the very end with you putting him at peace like he wanted just like at the end of the TzHaar storyline
The ga'al we trained died.
He sacrificed himself in the elder kiln because his work was done and he proved the ga'al are not worthless
>zuk killing you with a huge fricking sword and calling you b***h made
>not objectively superior to some moron in a bath tub throwing balls at you
>made him a women
I haven't played the update or the quest but didn't they just make him skinny?
No. He's Queen Ellamaria. They recently retconned her into an adventurer prior to marrying Roald. The newest quest introduced MUH TRAUMA and explains the Raptor was a way for her to continue adventuring while keeping people from talking about how Roald is so weak compared to her. He's strictly a leader and a political animal, he doesn't fight.
Wasn't she just some trashy barmaid before he married her? Isn't that her whole backstory and why she's such a fricking c**t to you in Garden of Tranquility?
That's pretty lame that they retconned that.
Queen Karen is actually stunning and brave, chud. Deal with it.
Jesus Christ this is...probably one of the most gay and moronic retcons I've ever heard of. Like something a nine year old would come up with.

>Warhammer is pozzed now.
Slaanesh garbage. Just stick with the books and the old rulesets, they can't destroy those by pretending the old stuff doesn't exist.
Bullshit. They can do what DnD is doing, and make it impossible to play the old versions by refusing to print them.
>make it impossible to play the old versions
Take a digital copy and print that. Nothing stopping you from custom prints.
Sure bud. Yep. We'll just always have a supply of people who will know and care that there was once a better way of doing it.

the new osrs quests feels like filler.

such as?
>octs are on the horizon
the onces that feels like it was made to force you to play raid content because the engagment toward those contents were low. tob quest, the new raid quest, the weird ZEAH questline. The secret of the norths being extremely fricking hehhehehehhe if you are a rs3 you knows what coming hehehehe.I just dont like it.
>The secret of the norths being extremely fricking hehhehehehhe if you are a rs3 you knows what coming hehehehe
Secrets of the north felt pretty progressive in the plot and the assassin coming back was used way better. Teaming up with mahjarret is cool. Looking forward to desert treasure 2 compared to that last piece of shit in rs3 with fricking boulder and sliding map puzzle rather than osrs clever translation puzzle and puzzle room
They should be better then the newest rs3 quest it's Beginner level, secrets of the north is a Master level while DT2 is grandmaster

This. Player interaction, no matter how brain cell destroying, is the core of RS.
which game has more players. I really wanna play a MMO but old runescape website says a lot of player and it feels so fricking dead or full of bots and i keep hearing RS3 is dead
any active mmo
osrs has probably 3-4x the players. rs3 can be fun too (as ironman), but has a much smaller community. either one is fine to be honest, but go osrs if you value having a large community with youtube/twitch/etc. content.
For the new desert treasure quest, what do you thinks in the vault? Is it going to be Azzy trying to save his daughter trapped in the shadow vault or do you think this is where the osrs devs force Sliske into us?
Azzy takes on the human disguise of Dr. Nabanik in RS3 to get you do shit for him so thats probably how the quest starts
i am approaching 1600kc at corrupted gauntlet. i fricking hate this game.

>members has a lot more content, including some quests that offer highly-outscaled rewards for the minimum level you can do them
>PAY TO WIN PAY TO WIN PAY TO WIN
Did you actually think you could play all of Runescape as a F2P?
Are you perhaps moronic? 99% of the game has always been locked behind membership. What do you mean "happened"?
Maybe he means when RuneScape had a thriving F2P community composed of all nationals across the globe like those estonians that made an RS Classic music heavy metal video. But that was more than a decade ago.
It had a thriving F2P community because when it went mainstream a large part of the playerbase was 12 year olds without money for membership even though they wanted it.
Right, and those years were glorious. Too bad RS couldn't retain that audience as the years went by. Zoomies are all in fortnite and other F2P games.

Waterfall quest has been in the game since fricking 2002.
Virgins fear tree gnome village, waterfall quest and fight arena
People play RS3?
People care about RS3 lore?
The ones that do annoy me would be the players who know about the lore, but didn't bother to complete those high-level quests. Sometimes, I wish there's a spacebar skip for talking to players who haven't done "Fate of the Gods" or "Plague's End." Heck, would be nice if they can at least Deathtouched Dart their way to +400 QP, yeah heh.
I just got the game, and that moron is speaking the truth. Frick me, guys. It's a shit game with aggressive bots.
There's a reason why it's "dead" to the mainstream despite all the bragging from corporate about hundreds of millions of accounts and over one billion in revenue.
In this particular game, bots are a major issue. why is it being defended. He is correct.
No one is defending bots.

Work towards max PoH.
The whole Jagex Account thing they're pushing is supposed to eliminate a lot of these bots once it's fully implemented.
It's not going to stop botting at all. If anything, it makes it easier to manage bots under one centralized account.
I'll care when someone starts a riot in Falador again.
not likely, you can get banned for wearing desert robes nowadays.
Isn't that required for Tourist Trap?
>player dodges fireball in the upcoming vorkath quest
>ellamaria takes the hit and fricking dies
Now thats how you solve the problem
if only we still had our comedy masks around to make a joke as good as the "too bad we dont have a pillar to drop on her this time" one
Didn't Nu-Jagex change the entire town that was named "Ali" completely invalidating the lore of 3 of their quests?
Yes, which in retrospect makes banning players wearing desert robes even more moronic. Jagex is full to the brim with clowns.
Are you sure it is woke or is it just a bad decision?
It's both.
It can be both.

I still find it very impressive that pretty much everything has an examine text
not everything, the newer area's don't.
I guess. Most of them are maybe three or four words. It is nice that there is some attention to detail with it, sure.
New stuff unfortunately severely lacks this, which is a contributor to lack of overall soul. In the quest OP is b***hing about, you enter a tomb filled with a frickton of dragon skeletons and dilapidated architecture. Theres maybe 3 things total in there that have examines that arent directly related to the quest progress, it sucks

>wildy got removed
Did Wildy really get gutted at one point?
Yeah, around 2009-ish they essentially removed the ability to go player killing and introduced the bounty hunter clusterfrick in the middle of a volcano.
That's fricking insane
Jesus Tap-Dancing Christ what the actual frick is gayex thinking?
That's a major problem with Wildy, there's literally nothing out there except some prayer bones, so gayex decided to fix that by making Wildy EVEN WORSE. Classic.
They removed Wilderness PVP and replaced it with wandering "revenant" monster spawns that could teleblock and Ice Barrage you. Then they brought it back after a while and stuffed all the revenants in an out-of-the-way cave.
Now the Wildy is opt-in PVP, so you can have either safe carebear skilling or hardcore PVP cat-and-mouse killing and wilderness events.
PVP in wildy wouldn't have been dead if there were actually good reasons to be there beyond the Chaos Alter, The Div area, Lava Strykes, and Abyss runs. PVP just became people with mid level gear ganking naked players without resistance. If there was a wealth of skilling to do spread out over the area and there was an actual reason to defend yourself instead of just taking a death then wildy would have been a blast.
PK clans would have been guarding those places in exchange for protection money and you would have actual clan wars with gangs jumping each other and you'd also see virgin mary anti-PK clans trolling everybody. We'll never see this happen.
If you want clannytroony shit exactly like that, go check out ARK Survival Evolved and see how fun it is yourself.
No need. That shit doesn't even remotely come close to clan battles in old wildy prior to trade removal, much less the massive 100vs100 clan wars WAAAAGH clusterfrick during the trade limit era, or the 10-man vs 100-man battles where the 100-man get slaughtered.
>massive 100vs100 clan wars WAAAAGH clusterfrick during the trade limit era, or the 10-man vs 100-man battles where the 100-man get slaughtered
God I fricking miss that, I spent so much time at the clan wars minigame getting bodied but I seemed to always make a new friend with every match. Managed to get there in shit gear (mith med and square, addy long, steel legs from the nearby ruins), had some guy give me full addy, and barely ever left
Some of the maps were terrifying to be in, especially against a small team that death dots on the spot and actually coordinates their targets. One of my most memorable battles was a level 120+ team of around 75 people getting ganked to death by 25 players of different levels but insane coordination on an all multi-combat zone.
They did it again, too. Now you have to specifically opt into PVP and carebear mode is on by default. They "balance" it by having carebears get randomly jumped by hordes of demons and the volcano taking potshots at them.

They get what they deserve. Giving gaygex money after all the pride shit, they deserve worse.
All the quests for the last two years are being pure lazy shit, full of self-inserting and woke crap, when before Runescape used to be their own thing, different from other games, having humor and actually putting some effort on it .
The chinese owners are better than the american ones, who actually have ties with Esptein. Not kidding.
Once upon a time, I played Runescape 3.
I had an untrimmed completionist cape prior to Invention.
I never got to 99 invention, thus never recovered Max, or completionist again.
I quit during the funny "rememberance of the myrecure". I didn't regret quitting.
That quest where you killed Draken, revealing all of the Myrecure died, and the vampires having a new ruler, was an okay ending. For this game.
Apparently Sliske's Maze end was the worst fricking quest ever, so I am happy.
Sadly, I remembered the Raptor being just a random knight who wanted to kill things, who never took his armour off. He was a mystery, but he kinda helped you out discovering the Queen Black Dragon. He did want to kill the Siren who was trapped in the Queen Black Dragon who was luring random people to be her lunch. He still let her become fricking ashes when the Queen Black Dragon woke up. He gave tips on how to kill new post level 100 slayer monsters. He had a cool mace weapon. UNDER NO HINTS, was it known if the QUEEN OF VARROCK, was him. Also, the queen of Varrock NEVER left her location.
Thus meaning there is no fricking way.
It is upsetting, but runescape has suffered way too much for me to care about that more than any other bad decision they made before.
Invention was the beginning of the end.
The samegayging defending this is very obvious. You know how frick up is the direction of RS3 lore when even normalgays and redditors are criticizing it.
Meanwhile, on cuckchan, some braindead homosexuals are defending it. Is really telling. A true clown word.
Nevermind the lore, RS3 is all kinds of fricked up.
are you saying you value the opinions of redditors more than you value the opinions of Ganker users, while posting on Ganker? am i reading this correctly? do you even understand your own logic here?
Remember, newbies, don't ruin this site and turn it into a new reddit.
no one cares about your preddit screencaps
rs3 is already a game dead that like 10k people play. osrs players won't care and will happily accept any "woke" gay shit
What I hate most about these new quests is how NPCs treat you like some novice even though my character has been adventuring for 15 years having all previous quests done and is fricking maxed. You can't even say anything negative about all the moronic woke shit either in the dialogue.
Runescape died in 2007 and never came back. Move the frick on.
