@@InTheMindOfficial It's not being a child its standing up for my principles. i've played this game since 2004 and took a break in 2016 when they started to ramp up mtx. came back feb 2023 and played till hero pass.

[@DarthChosen]

4th conjure, filling the missing slots for the other styles (aka t90-t95 for things like boots gloves shields etc), defender upgrades even though they are useless sort of now, rex necro boss, continuation of old storylines that never got an ending (the desert and gnomes), more about demonheims final floor and moia, and ofc the most important update we need to see is clan updates.

[@ducksquidbat8315]

Heck, bring zaros back and let us kill him. Even if they said he was coming in September it would keep me interested

The most recent combat update was fucking insane. IMO, the game is so much more enjoyable now, at least pvm wise. Based on how much they outdid themselves for the combat rework, I really don’t mind a lackluster roadmap

[@SilencedRS]

That’s a good point. The combat rework was surely a big task and is a huge improvement to the game

[@GRIMHOOD99]

The thing is that combat update is not content (it is a glorified fix of a project oversight for which someone should be fired btw) and it is even less of a content considering it is relevant for maybe 5% of player population. It fixed the pressing issue with the old combat triangle being left in the dust but only for top pvm core. Good ol' Timmy the weekend pvmer is not going to use old triangle when necro is easier and cheaper and in 95% of cases performs just fine. And if he tries he will find out it sucks compared to necro because even though it can get him better times at some stuff he does, it takes more effort and costs more in gear. Current player population is at early 2019 numbers sometimes even worse during very good easter event. They need something for everyone to look forward to like in 2019 with arch and herb/farm 120s to keep them in the game. And there is a void now except for a quest and ongoing graphical update project.

[@jeffkaiser9078]

a new skilling boss would be nice. something that could incorporate a couple skills that scales with your level xp wise like wintertodt and maybe a mechanic system like arch glacor where we can toggle on and off mechanics

[@SVPrototype1]

As a trimmed master comp caper I’ve switched switched to mainly playing osrs and love the consistent good updates. On rs3 the Easter event was good but I finished it in a few days and the roadmap is disappointing so I’ll be sticking with osrs

[@HFIHYHAGD]

I would like to see a big area of expansion like OSRS got with Varlamore

[@SilencedRS]

Varlamore has been a pretty good update. I've only tried the thieving and perilous moons so far but definitely exciting content for osrs

[@ducksquidbat8315]

Varlamore his the epitome of how osrs has completely lost itself and morphed into this strange world of endless random items and bosses that have no association to “old school” RuneScape.

Why doesn't RS3 release a character model enhancement? Graphics feel like we're in 2016

[@trolltothebank]

Because it got scrapped 😢

[@killler240]

They said it is a lot of work, so they stopped. I guess the solution was MTX outfits if you want your character to look good

[@Californ1a]

The higher quality graphics are likely the whole reason we're even in this mess. Content devs are having to wait on art requests much longer than before because of needing much higher poly models, higher res textures, and much more articulated animations, which heavily slows down development. Lower res graphics are the biggest reason osrs can create content so much more quickly. We'd be much better off if they had just stuck with the rshd style - both in terms of graphical consistency across all areas of the game, and in terms of the content release cadence.

[@killler240]

@Californ1a ironically AI would help solve this, but said they won't use it. Hopefully, they change their mind.

[@johnbacon8394]

so basically we get a quest in 3 months.. nice, clearly they had to last minute change all of there plans after heropass, hopefully it picks up later.

[@brbhave2p00p4]

The rs3 team is the most incompetent team I have ever seen. Even their mods looks weird compared to osrs mods

[@papasmurf9201]

I just did alot of the old rellekka quests not to long ago and i kept thinking to my self wow these areas are dated lol. Theres so many areas of the game that need tlc.

[@XJ9LoL]

Any update that isn't a new Zamorak Boss is disappointing according to the community.

[@GRIMHOOD99]

At this point I am just confused like there is something wrong because even in 2019 which was basically a dead year for a lot of people first half of the year we knew that Archaeology is coming and later that year farming/herblore 120s came out so there was at least some copium/hopium to inhale while we waited for more content. Like this is not even about content being ready this is more about no communication about content. This with people being moved to OS just yells "we're fucked but we can't talk about it yet" and that's kinda scary. I am currently not playing, I think there is a lot of wrong with the game right now but I also do want it to do well and currently it is at 2019 numbers player wise during one of the better events released in years and that's just sad.

[@shaunosmorrison8385]

They better have the dg hole for this Summer event or we take to the streets of Falador

[@christopherhartley4723]

Any big update will probably be saved and announced at runefest

[@9HPRuneScape]

I know, I know - these updates are underwhelming. But I can assure that TONS of updates are in the works by Jagex - putting tons of valuable time into creating new & exciting MTX events that are not even a part of the actual game besides ruining it with P2W! Always a nice way to see where their priorities are at… Now that I’ve been playing other MMO’s I realize just how slow and extremely small RuneScape’s updates really are. Using a quarter of a year to hype up a RS quest is highly underwhelming, especially when you compare them to highly immersive quest from other games, releasing hundreds of new quest a year, all way more complex than any RuneScape quest could ever be. RS3 is just a cash-grab who after plaguing the game with MTX wants to NOW make vocal player surveys (which OSRS has had forever), but to late for giving us a say after you’ve damaged the game beyond repair by IGNORING your RS3 player base.

[@colragonboi3341]

Yea I was disheartened by this post. I've been wanting a reason to pop back in game for some time now since necromancy and there's just nothing there. At this point I'm not expecting anything really attention catching until maybe runefest. And I find it really sad that osrs gets more quality updates of late and rs3 has had nothing particularly notable since necromancy, and no the combat rebalance doesn't really count in my opinion. I'm tentatively hedging my bets on runefest delivering something really neat, maybe even a revival of the player avatar rework (seriously it's dumb that rs3 avas are stuck in the stone age compared to recent npcs.) But if that doesn't happen. I'm concerned for the games future.

[@killler240]

Either there is huge up planned in the background taking up all their time, or RS3 has a minimal team assigned to it. Personally, I think RS3 is in the Cash Cow cycle of the business.

[@zeldapro18]

Haven't heard that before lol

[@zeldapro18]

If only Yak Track was tweaked or Hero Pass was fine tuned and people helped with that instead of hating everything that's not just membership. I don't even notice TH promos most the time. Maybe content would not be as dry has it has been as they scrapped the whole thing. I understand they did lie about "huge content update".

[@dank9215]

Honestly I haven't played RS3 in months. I have kept up-to-date with progress but so far I see nothing worthwhile to return to. Shame as I've played RS for 20+ years.

[@revan1395]

Im going to be trying osrs soon and be on and off rs3 doing some quest or achievements for the comp capes but gonna focus on osrs more i do want another way of training dung so i can finally work on 120 dung i refuse to go in there again its my least favorite skill but i really like the 120 cape

[@Chillifish57]

1 quest and another seasonal - bruuh. Pretty lame. Can’t we have a cool colosseum thing like osrs

Wonder how long that would take compared to 2007scape. Would be cool.

[@TheRanqee]

Pls more mtx!

[@raens9439]

Meh, I wouldn't expect them to do anything worthwhile tbh. I love the game but I've already moved on after they introduced hero pass and it's been going downhill from there. Necromancy release was amazing but that's about it.

[@Zero-qb4ri]

my sub runs next month out and i will came back when they realase content. sad i dont like osrs ok play other games

[@Cahoooters]

I think RS3 is finally over. They have no content to give us. it makes me extremely sad as a 20+ year veteran.

[@ShockwavesFTW]

Don't be melodramatic, RS3 isn't going anywhere. People have been saying the exact thing you've been saying since EOC and RS3 has been fine. Check the player count tracker if you don't believe me. The long term average has roughly stayed the same for the past decade.

[@Cahoooters]

@@ShockwavesFTW I have seen the average. The player base has never been this small for RS3. Everyone’s leaving for osrs and other games with the lack of content, direction, honesty & disgusting predatory MTX.

[@ShockwavesFTW]

@@Cahoooters What are you saying is factually incorrect. The average player count for this month is 21,000 players. The lowest it's ever been has been October 2019 where it was just under 19,000 players. RS3 will be fine, as always. Whether or not people cry and complain about it yet still play the game is up to them.

[@Cahoooters]

@@ShockwavesFTW I'm not saying that i think the games about to shut down. My points of saying "it's over" is the quality of the content, its never going to be the same. Everything's too easy, too accessible, short lived & poor quality & with releases like that, it continually Damages the games longevity and will keep pushing people away. I fucking love this game.. But to sit behind your screen and think "it'll be fine" is an absurd place to be. Don't get me wrong ..people will keep eating shit because its the only thing offered to them, they will keep huffing Copium and believe that big changes are coming and they aren't. They will keep trying to milk the player base with all of the MTX & it will blow up in their faces. I want our game to succeed but with the people in charge right now, it isnt going to happen.

[@Cahoooters]

@@ShockwavesFTW extra point to add. this month player count has risen due to a limited time holiday event. people want the cosmetics and then they'll log out untill there's something else to do. So to try and use this months figures as a point of evidence doesn't wash pal.

[@BB-jw6iu]

wont get good price if player base dwindles

[@Disregarding]

It has to be laziness that’s the only possible excuse they can have. It’s the product of safe space all inclusive work spaces. It’s great for mental health but no work ever seems to get done.

[@trolltothebank]

No, this has nothing to do with a "safe space all inclusive work space" - that sounds like nonsense. This is total fumbling my management - Maybe you haven't ever worked in an environment like this (software) but this feels like a clear lack of direction, developers aren't being put on projects that amount to real content, or the projects they are put on get shelved due to shifting priorities.

[@Phillip138]

Very disappointing...they destroyed this game. 😒

[@sabotagefate69]

Imagine if they properly modernised combat so you could add equipment to abilities allowing your character to automatically switch when that ability is used and then switched back before the next ability. Or made it so my character can be switched to continue or stop combat when i move allowing me to continue combat and properly move around. Or made defensives not take a gcd so i can use them while im attacking and still deal with mechanics. Or allowed me to make an eat command that i could customise to be a specific potion or potion equivalent, specific food and equivalent, and specific blubber or equivalent so i can hit one button to one tick eat all three. Or made soul split able to be active separately of overhead protect players so i can hit less buttons to achieve the same thing. Or fixed animation delays with enemies causing unreactable mechanics. Or aura changes, potion timer changes, etc. Or literally did anything meaningful other than copy pasta necro onto the other styles. Im glad they got addressed and buffed and modernised im not bashing the beta and the initial combat modernizations. But lets have meaningful changes allowing for less archaic gameplay and systems. Make them options. Those are just the most obvious and basic changes too xD

[@brettd.watson1821]

Not really, the content that has come out recently has been terrible. Necromancy as a skill is good because it simplified combat and allowed players to try content they couldn’t have before. But necromancy as a combat skill was/is stupidly op and it basically took them adding a groundbreaking new combat style before they realized they should work on the original 3

[@ducksquidbat8315]

Necro was less of an issue compared to how they just had one boss drop every t95 item under the sun. When full t95 necro, the most op style is under 2b, there’s zero incentive to use the other styles
