"Hate me - but do it honestly."
Coulda just borrowed one of mine.

There's just no reason not to, right?

I don't see the problem with that. You're making a giant sweeping change to your game, that ultimately IS a gamble.

What reason do you have not to also use it to draw attention to yourself and get people talking about it?

would've** sorry I apparently cannot type.

This poll wouldn't passed with flying colours without a single OSRS vote.

The OSRS'ers chipping in just speeds it along and further hammers home the message.

Excuse me, but this is the internet, you're not allowed a nuanced take here.

Please delete this and rewrite it to maintain only an extreme opinion one way or the other, thank you.

Ultimately, they don't stick to either, but even today I was having this conversation with a friend and it was "I don't care about OSRS, RS3 looks and plays better, but the game burns me out."
October 29, 2025 at 11:41 PM
My experience showing people both RS3 and OSRS out here in the real world has been they prefer RS3. The dated graphics and mechanics of OSRS don't keep their attention unless there's a predetermined nostalgia there.

It's either an empty shell, or a passion project by jmods, you gotta pick one. Whichever it was before, it'll be so after.

Yeah that'll be Nov. 12th.
October 29, 2025 at 7:55 PM
Why would we hear about core gameplay changes sooner?

Unless you're confusing them with integrity changes, which we'll actually be hearing about Nov. 12th.

We'll have to agree to disagree then. The work he's putting towards the health and longevity of the game, for me, does outweigh the negative. But we'll see, if Pride never comes back, it's just gonna sour things more.
October 29, 2025 at 7:42 PM
None of that would be necessary if they were just doing this to 'get ahead of an inevitable ban'. It's clearly an intended
effort to go beyond that.

Isn't this just handwaving away the rest of the changes that come with this? It's not just turning lootboxes off, there's a focus on fixing ingame issues that push people to MTX to begin with, and changing art direction on cosmetics to make them feel grounded in the game.

Plus cosmetic toggle.

If Pride gets shitcanned again next year, I'll revisit my stance on this, but for now, I'm heavily leaning into "He's a person who made a bad decision, not a bad person."

Which to me just screams avoiding any unwanted attention while there's a massive uptick in fascist and alt-right ideologies throughout the western world. The guy doesn't come off as the kind to shoehorn his ideologies into the game when every other action he's made states the opposite.
