I still feel like your not reading what i said, and you dont have a idea currently of how people feel about the game. Have you not seen how many people are infuriated with both mtx and necromancy ( which for the record i think is overall good) and again, i havent heard rs guys take yet, but a bunch of cc have made videos on it. I cant figure out how to hyperlink here. But they arent hard to find and the hate on mtx which, KEEPS GROWING is everywhere and frankly hard to miss if your active, and im not even. No comment on how mods are leaving? thats only supposed to get worse. Why is our game fueling osrs? thats where the normal players are. we basically are just fish with the whales. Also i know its beating a dead horse, but jagex has cut their support team down constantly. When it was a much smaller game it was far easier to get help but now they dont want to pay for support so they keep a small team and it legit runs like ass. You can only get help through twitter, i had to go through this after that horrible jagex account merger stuff, another update that flopped hard and weakened security which is already a issue considering again the support is really bad.

None of this bodes well for this game. It has the biggest profits ever and the biggest flops. Were just a whale game. OSRS seems like the way everyone who isnt a whale shall go and maybe thats how it should be. its sad.

@zoomer428

You still have yet to show us anything we can look at. All you have talked so far is just your personal opinion.

I have shown you many examples of OSRS players playing RS3 and other games, as well as RS3 players playing OSRS like TheRSGuy teaching OSRS Infernal last year. Players playing different are very common. Even B0aty, the iconic OSRS players OSRS begged so hard for their players to vote him for some Twitch Streamer of the Year Award earlier this year, is playing ELDEN RING and not OSRS now. So what? Does it mean OSRS in such a hopeless state with a totally crumbled Jenga economy and uncontrollable number of bots that even Mod Sween has to beg for mercy?

Jagex isn't fueling OSRS. Didn't I show you they have run out of money and the bigger streamers like MOONMMOON have packed up? Jagex's direct controlling parent (JUNE UK BIDCO Limited, and not Carlyle Group) doesn't seem to be in a better state than many people think, they are probably down to their last attempt to sell Jagex. So what does one RS3 streamer who also happened to stream other games also play OSRS? Let's get real and look at the similar OSRS Twitch viewership as before. It really means ZIP.

eh, a lot of times they switch around

i dont see the big issue


Absolutely, stremaers do switch around, and more importantly Maikeru isn't even switching around. He mentioned clearly he isn't quitting RS3. He just want to play other games like other players. He explicitly mentioned A Friend.

It is probably the same situation as B0aty playing ELDEN RING, but he said at this point he is not planning on quitting OSRS totally. I don't know why certain players got so overboard with Maikeru who typically have only 100 or 200 concurrent viewers on RS3 but willfully ignore the same scenario with the big OSRS streamers B0aty who typically have 3-4 thousand concurrent OSRS viewers.

With all the content creators for rs3 going to osrs, even those that had started rs3 post eoc I think it may be time that I fully go to old school.

Play the game that YOU enjoy, not the game that other people enjoy. You are not a sheep, you do not have to follow everyone else just because they are "content creators".

You guys must have missed the memo. I tried linking but apparently im too stupid to understand how hyperlinks work here. Anyways its not just switching. Some of the bigger rs3 cc are literally halfway to hanging up their hat with rs3. Not completely, but basically they only want to make content when a actually good patch comes out. And not necessarily be playing the game.


okay. thats the reason why people have switched every single time. whether its now or 5 years ago.

nothing has changed.

Its easy to say that but no one wants to play a game with no playerbase and thats just a fact. Not saying rs3 has no players but when you run around in rs3 it feels like a dead game c
Its so empty of players

I think its all about fear of dying playerbase and i cant blame him for that no need to bring up excuses when we all know rs3 needs to work on new player experiences

No playerbase? Did you go to the wrong game? We have all kinds of real players in RS3. We even have community run events left and right.

Are you mistaking bots in OSRS as their "playerbase"? In RS3 players, players are happily cooping with real players in real content like Wildy Flash Events, community events, bossing and such, while in OSRS their "playerbase" is only competing for resources with the few real players left while leaving every OSRS apologist including Mod Sween out of words to defend themselves.

RS3 never had a "hugeeeee (OSRS TM)" content creator community the last few years. RS3 never had a "hugeeee (OSRS TM)" concurrent players (OSRS TM that bots, gold sellers and ignore real life social media stats) the last few years. It is nothing new. It has always been in this state, but look at how much money they made and how popular and iconic that 20 year old games is in the eyes of Wall Street and Main Street that OSRS can never dream of... oops... bots don't have dreams perhaps.

bro you are proving to me you have no clue what the new player experience is like tell me the first thing a new player sees is an empty burthorpe then gets send to an empty lumbridge like what are you talking about you think new players would find these events
