Jagex is getting even greedier? How is this possible?
due to covid they forgot the lessons they learned with the excessive monetization of rs3
Ugh, I remember the EoC back when it happened and that's well over a decade ago. Mod Mark was a smug piece of shit saying anyone who doesn't like it is just being nostalgic and implied we should just quit.
RuneScape is unironically a very well-written game, and now that I'm an adult, I can't help but think it was totally done dirty by capitalism and growing enshittification.
I watched the Josh strife review of rs3 and I actually felt bad for speeding through the quests all those years ago, despite rushing through them I actually think a fair bit of the humor stuck with me.
One of my dream games would be Runescape but a large singleplayer game, like Kenshi and Zomboid. I used to like it a lot but I just can't justify playing a grindy, subscription-based mmo anymore.
I don't think it's like RuneScape (but I never played it), but CrossCode was really interesting for capturing some of the magic of an MMO without the unpleasant parts like other people and subscription fees
