      It won't be out for another year at least, this was the "we're going forward with this and it's happening no matter what" poll, there will be more later to work out all the details

      no even if you think new rs3 skills are trash they do their own thing. This is just doing skills you already do ,but on a boat. Therefore it makes no sense for it to be a skill instead of a expansion
      [...]
      yes very scummy

      Dungeoneering was literally a minigame where you just did other skills in one spot for nothing but XP drops and a rewards shop
      This at the very least involves going to new places with a new kind of transportation and introducing new stuff into the game that actually matters

        Dungeoneering had rewards that dethroned whip/godswords/etc., and sure as frick mattered.
        Besides, procgen stuff makes for Runescape's best content (Barrows, TT). Getting to use all of your skills and having an actual use for levels above 70 outside of mining/smithing felt great, the bosses each had some fun gimmick instead of loading down one boss with five billion mechanics, the puzzles were a nice break between combat rooms, and the game was really due for something that had all of that wrapped up in a neat package.

          Yes, it was made clear that passing this poll means Sailing is coming to the game. All of the specific details about what that means will be separately polled later but it's definitely going to happen.
          If this poll had failed they would have gone back to the drawing board and workshopped another new skill to vote on, probably back to Shamanism. Since "we want a new skill" passed last year they're obligated to deliver one that people are on board with.

      I feel like devs are proposing the impossible. They are saying that you will be able to see people sailing from shores if they get close and you will also pass other player ships in the sea. If you think about it logically though it makes no sense because there would be too many people occupying the same space. Normally thats ok because a player is just 1 square ,but if you have a ship you become 10 squares minimum with small one and 100 with big ass ships they propose. So youre either clipping into other ships or you would not we able to move because of a traffic jam of boats.

      You will have to build or buy (or steal) your own ship, set sail from a port and actually navigate and travel through the overworld. It's not instanced, you will be freely traveling over water and able to see and compete with other players, they even want to have ship-to-ship PvP.

      They've shown some tech demos already, it looks pretty janky but not terrible. You can only sail bigger ships out in the open ocean so it should be less of an issue. I wouldn't be surprised if they do some engine upgrades before this launches so they can implement stuff like a bigger render distance (which you can already get with other clients).

                1. Lovakengj, Arceuus and Piscarillius look and feel like ass and the dev time spent creating Varlamore and surrounds would be better spent improving these areas instead. Also the catacombs since that's a purple nightmare
                2. Jagex said they'd flesh out Kourend and Kebos with more smaller quests and then we only got two plus AKD
                3. The game doesn't need more landmass, players are already being spread over an increasing thin area per server

            It was fricking embarrassing on release, but a lot has been done since then to unfrick it and develop it properly. There's a unified questline that introduces you to most of everything and a few standalone ones that are decent and useful. The favor system isn't completely fricking stupid and miserable anymore though some of them still take a few hours to grind out. Every city has some useful functions and becomes reasonably accessible once you unlock the three teleportation systems.

            That looks a lot better than what Jagex are doing. Whatever happened to that sunken city they were going to add.

            That was done by GentleTractor, who they ripped off to fix Kourend on release because his take was embarrassingly better than what they actually put out. He also designed Varlamore and they brought him on to help actually put it into the game seven years later.
            They used that and another fan map in the Sailing pitch as examples of what they want to go for with new areas that will be added with Sailing, so what we get should be similar to that (lots of smaller islands rather than another continent like Zeah).

        It's more that the people playing want the core loop of the game to be a painstaking grind but the satisfaction to come after it to be instant and gratifying. The most common example I've heard parroted is the whole thing of like
        >oh you're training Slayer for like 10 hours and you take all your items in to the GE and instantly trade it all in for cash
        >you just can't match that dopamine hit
        or replace it with any other drop or bulk trade of processed item or what have you.

        Therefore, there's really no system that would work for those people other than the GE. Trading Posts were an absolutely brilliant compromise, effectively bringing the trades that would have been on the forum into the game and could've livened up locations as you met to trade across the world. There's also what the players could do to run the economy or otherwise trade more effectively, like setting up Merch Clans to deal in specific resources, or knowing which locales to go to in order to sell your items beyond Fally Park (I used to go to fishing spots to get swordies on the cheap, or to House Parties to sell Treasure Trail items).

        Thing is, all those systems don't have that instant gratification of the sale, so none of them would work

        I started playing OSRS as an ironman around 2 years ago and am finally reaching the intermediate bossing level. The step up in difficulty is nonsensical. You go from barrows where you just turn the prayer on and attack to pray flicking / strange movement (that plugins can trivialize) and a DPS race that seems to completely randomize if you will win or not.
        The community is terrible about this too. Jagex is talking about adding more simplistic bosses and their community just freaks out that they're not being represented.
        Making the leap from Barrows to Zulrah or god forbid raids is what keeps anyone from playing this for more than a few years

        I got my quest cape a few days ago. On the whole it was a pretty fun experience but the later quests were some of the most infuriating things I've ever done in a video game. Being underleveled and undergeared definitely didn't help but it was easily the angriest I've been at a video game in over a decade.
        The worst part is that the majority of the new quests aren't comfy and silly like the old ones, which is the only reason I bothered getting the stupid cape.

        10% of people play just for the quests. While not many do, enough pull from the rest of the game's world to turn the whole thing into a sort of point-and-click game where you have to apply items gathered from outside quest areas, or use your knowledge of where else you've wandered to find out where to go. They stomach the rest of the "gameplay' to live wit that

        Another 10% play for the PvM experience. They're somewhat puzzles in themselves, especially as players apply more and more restrictions in order to see what's the bare minimum they're able to use to complete some of the hardest content in the game. It's also mildly fun enough to enjoy even if you don't go that length, and again, they can stomach the rest in order to get there.

        The other 80% are just focused on the grind. They enjoy numbers going up, they love how slow the process is to get more XP, and they take a lot of pride in being able to stand through what's basically an idle game where you're generally not actually able to idle if you want to be able to get your levels up within a reasonable amount of time. There's a lot of people that will genuinely get mad if content with actual gameplay gets added if it has XP rewards that encroach upon autistic game-tick manipulation in order to be effective. Such a thing would devalue the accomplishments of the people that had to spend endless hours doing the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, dealing with some of the worst tedium in video games, to get the same results.

      There's several bosses that are intermediate level bosses like sarachnis, the giants and GWD that can help you learn. They also just got a new boss polled to come out in the future. The problem is that these bosses offer nothing at all for an ironman's progression and their drops are worth very little for a main account nowadays.
      This is especially bad for ironmen where literally everyone encourages you to rush to CG for gear progression (one of the harder pieces of content in the game).

        I keep contemplating this. It feels like the obvious way forwards but skips like 30% of the gear progression. Also locking yourself into a minigame for months is torture, even if you are proficient

          It helps a lot though. I did CG as a main because I ended up enjoying just doing 5 or 6 in an hour each day. It'll improve all of your mechanics to the point you can start easily doing normal raids. I wish the game had more CG type content I could do in 10 minute chunks. I hate just grinding one boss endlessly with nothing inbetween and fricking up at the end of a 40 minutes raid tilts me too much

    Does anybody enjoy hunter at all? What are the enjoyable parts to you? I have at LEAST 70+ in every skill except hunter, if it wasn't for tears of guthix my hunter level would still be 1

      Hunter is fine, the bad skills are slayer, runecrafting, and agility. I still to this day don't know why slayer is even a skill, and it would never pass today.

        sailing passed. and slayer makes
        more sense then most of the other skills in the game, not to mention how popular games like monster hunter are

        I don't see how slayer isn't good. It's the meat of the game. You do other skills to get yourself ready for combat. Why wouldn't someone like slayer?

      Hunter is my least favorite skill by far. None of the skill has any impact on your account and it's not fun to train. Can't wait for them to fix the entire skill with the new guild just like they did with farming.

    Who would even play that dogshit game after it came out that one of the head Jmods was letting a fricking literal eprostitute tell him who to ban, if you play OSRS you have no self respect.

    It's pretty hilarious watching people bemoan sailing being added instead of garbage like warding and summoning. The design of skills like those is fundamentally trash, because it impacts far, far too many skills and just makes you realize you're not doing other skills as efficiently as possible. Completely un-fun. Summoning made me quit the game outright.

    Sailing sounds like it'll be a nice balance of completely new content, adding a new dimension to old content, and interfacing with other skills in a balanced way.

    >Its combat...but only when we say it is
    Yes slayer is truly a god tier skill, why don't we also make a skill where you can mine rocks, but only certain rocks after you RNG roll for which you will get.

    You're right, we should've added artisan as the new skill instead

      Artisan is just slayer 2, if you guys love slayer so much you should be fine with it.

    I'm shocked they didn't want to do Dungeoneering in OSRS but now they are about to do Dungeoneering2.0: Meme Skill edition.

      Dungeoneering should have been side content/mini game on steroids, not a skill where you needed to grind it to get the chaotic rapier.

    These people are fricking moronic. Gower brothers should've never sold the game off

      It's funny how much people have begged for something like RS3's Mining and Smithing rework, if even just to get that all-important drop table change (removing ores, bars, and smithed items from drops to preserve the value of the skill), but that's not as sexy to investors and non-subscribed users as "OSRS's FIRST NEW SKILL!!!!!!!!"

      Theyve had 10 years to fix them, clearly they have no interest in doing so.

    Maybe I'm gay but I'm excited for it, it seems fun. I don't get why people are doomposting over it

      Yeah but don't expect any content to be there until at least a year after it releases.

    Only thing I don't like about sailing are Barracuda trials.
    I'm not into time trials.
