I'm extremely not happy with this event, it doesn't supply any support to players who are disinterested in the game,

Why on earth would the company want to waste time catering to people who aren't interested in the game? It's a holiday event, and therefore something for the engaged community.

Exactly what I thought. All companies created business catering to players who are interested in their products, not the ones who are disinterested.

Why does it seem so often like we must be vigilant of SECURITIES FRAUD from ponzi scheming pump and dump investors who parrot news and don't actually play the game? Those interests get sent to the notice of the SEC, FINRA, LSEG, so so easily.

Bad reviews are not bad for entertainment products.

I happen to like the halloween event well enough that with the daily tokens given in a day or so that I will have been able to buy almost everything from the spooky token shop. That doesnt mean I need to contradict the OP. His most valid concern is the sense of being forced to reschedule his own time to play limited availability content.

I, too, have felt that way, but for slightly different reasons. I used to dress to the nines for halloween, and attend parties that defy imagination. That would many years mean I barely had time to sign in to runescape, and I did miss some things that do not return even in the legacy cosmetics tab of death's shop. iirc it was a warlock costume I missed. anyways... yeah... its a little pressure.
I have quit rsof because moderator found comments about darklight bonus damage on demons "off topic" for wildy flash mobs full of demons

I'm not sure why this happens so much on the forums, I get this when I try to talk about diverse content like PVP and Minigames.


The connection from someone saying, people are requesting Mini quests and then completely neglecting the situation where Jagex could still implement the Mini quest but just not make it mandatory! Keep in mind we're talking about a HOLIDAY event! this isn't really even supposed to take up any of our main updates we get, OHHHHHHH YEAH WE HAVEN'T GOT AN ACTUAL GOOD UPDATE IN MONTHS BTW. Go make a new account was our update.....FSW

On top of this, FSW was supposed to try to attract new players, I'm not sure how people are in Favour of FSW but yet they try to distance themselves from people who care for RuneScape, still try and log on to RuneScape but just do not enjoy the content that Jagex is trying to push onto the community.


- Unfortunately, from the few posts that were made today, these all related to my upper statements in some way, your neglecting people who still care about the game, encourage and completely try to diminish the fact that you don't even need to make a Mini quest mandatory, for a HOLIDAY event.

As a business you have to understand that hey, maybe just MAYBE somebody who bought a year long premier membership may not enjoy our updates, but we have a great community and the fact that we make our holiday events easily assessable would obviously be a great investment! We could still make whatever we want to make, just not make it mandatory when it comes to our HOLIDAY events.


You have to eventually be realistic to what RuneScape used to be, it was a DIVERSE COMMUNITY GAME and it offered so much content, now it literally only offers PVM with a poor diverse content catalogue to go along with it, AND it's deleting the unique diverse content it has YEARLY. There are so many players who are going to be bummed out by this, not be encouraged to go along with the PVM hype that Jagex advertises almost 24/7, give some support.

I found out new players in RS3 FSW are mostly excited to play with players who care about RS3, and only distant themselves from the ones who are disinterested in RS3.

Birds of the same feather flock together. New players come to a game only because they are interested in the game. Otherwise they won't participate in an event. Of course they are eager to play with players with the like mind to successfully complete an event.

On the other hand, I have seen a handful of players who came to events and did nothing except telling complaining how "bad" those events are. Of course, they got lectured by the new players with the simple question: why are you here then?

Yes, new players absolutely care about new content like Halloween, but what they care are constructive advices on how to get more rewards mind them xp, items or just fun out of the events, absolutely not the negative ones who don't a thing but tell them to play other games.

I understand, but there are different types of birds and in order to supplement these birds Jagex has to somewhat be understanding to this situation. Unfortunately, Jagex has become a PVM bird and has completely neglected the rest of the community, there's no way we can all survive under the same branch.

I am here to help, and that is what I will continue to do because I care about all birds.

With this thread I am simply suggesting that making HOLIDAY events easily assessable would be best, instead of making mandatory Mini quests. It's extremely not complicated.

Did you watch the Wilderness Flash Events livestream? They clearly told us they learned to do live events by researching other games. They are spot on because we can see results from what they have learned from other games and implemented in RS3.

Please tell us what PvM in the Halloween event when except the Skeleton event (if you even count it as pvm) is pvm?

It's a simple mind state that is overlooked because Jagex feels as though if people do not participate in this Mini quest, they may feel that RuneScape is oversaturated with PVM or even, Jagex just felt the urge to say HEY, you have to do this Mini quest to participate in this Holiday event without actually thinking it through.

With this they are trying to make things over complicated to make it seem like EVERYTHING isn't about PVM, but in reality, it's the only thing that really hypes people up anymore. As I said before RuneScape was never so much circled around PVM like it is today, people used to do so many other thing's because it was SUPPORTED.

* These are just simple thoughts that may have been the trigger to how this mandatory event approach was implemented *


So, to answer your question, I'm not saying you NEED to or DO NOT need to do any PVM for the mandatory HOLIDAY Mini quest.

I'm not going to carry on with you any longer on this thread, you flamed me once and you are now trying to take different angles to discredit this thread. It is clear you try to support Jagex in any way possible and this discussion won't be properly discussed with a biased opinion.

We don't need to pvm in the Halloween miniquests either.

Evidently players like the Halloween Event, so they participate in the Halloween Event and expect to play with other players who are interested in the Halloween Event while ignoring the ones disinterested in it.

From the business perspective, of course Jagex create content for players who are interested and ignore the ones who are disinterested.
