Since forever games exist forever, we will never have enough good ideas to make them last longer than "forever". Being able to continue to listen to, implement, and execute good ideas from all sources, both internal or external, and inside and outside the game industry, is crucial to the idea of Forever Games.

Most games die or begin to fail after 10 years in the industry, and RS3 remains the only Jagex games that is still going and going and going stronger after 23 years.

RS3 is NOT getting stronger, it's slowly dying. We are now struggling to average 20k players online over the course of a day and will be at record lows at the current rate by mid spring. As I type this the vast majority of the worlds have less than 200 players. Only 4 are over 900, and W84 is the only one near max.

This is mostly self inflicted. Closing the forums has cost them a few players. Changing the oddiment rewards cost them some more. Necromancy actually hurt as it's overpowering all other combat skills, especially with BIS cost. And the combat beta isn't going to fix the latter. They really need to stop shooting themselves in the foot.

The other forever games to be, including SCUM, are just forever games in the making and they will have to prove them.

It's not a "forever game" if it's "in the making". But since you have such a fascination with it do us all a favor and go play that. Somehow the name is fitting...

"FOREVER GAMES FOR CORE GAMERS

These strengths inform the vision of our studio as a thriving international games company with a growing library of forever game IPs for core gamers. This in turn drives our mission: We create forever fans by empowering our community."

I don't think bots are fans, and we need forever real fans to empower our forever games, and each of the growing list of forever game IP for core games in the library will strength each other for this international games company. Perhaps all these forever games with foreign languages and localization supports and servers can have the same players playing multiple games forever.
