sounds easy enough, set up an RSC world or two! it would probably be a real pain. but, y'all are a solid team and i know you could do it. i'm sure there's alotta reasons why it's not feasible, but forget all that, runescape classic is a vibe foreal. i really miss that game. i think everyone would be surprised at how many people would play.

at one point y'all were teasing us with talk about it being playable again. you know i'm about that rsc life if i remember all that, cuz that was well over a decade ago.

Okay, how much would you be willing to pay for it?

To be fair only a handful of real people played it. Rest were bots spoiling it.

Sad it's gone. Happy it was retired when it was.

Great game though. Maybe support it coming back if it could be paid for by membership.

We would need someone who could understand the code to fix it as it was full of bugs and no one knew how it was still running in this day and age.

Classic and olds school are conceptually dead. Jagex is working on next gen and new school games rather, although they won't be MMORPGs.

Classic and old school players are evolving too. Don't you see plenty of old school players have been touting and enjoying the survival game genre not long ago? So no more classic and old school RS games. We can have the likes of Rustscape though, and in Jagex's case SCUMscape perhaps?

IDK. It seemed like a good idea years back when they gave us access.

But it took me like 4 days to even get out of Lumbridge. I'm not sure I ever actually made it to another town, just abandoned along the road somewhere.

It would feel even worse now. No surge?

No, no surge in classic and old school games whatsoever because the old game mechanics are too simplistic and the legacy technologies are so broken. You can only surge with RS3 now, or if you insist, wait for the new school and next gen Jagex non-MMORPG games, but it won't be any time soon.
