Tbh i think it will just end up like all the others graphical reworks and we'll just have another COMPLETELY out of style model which badly merges with everything else.

I foresee armors/outfits/weapons which won't be updated and will retain prehistoric era skins.
Or worse some of them get updated, some not, and most of the "new" models shoveled as solomon overrides.

Don't get me wrong - graphical updates are a good thing - but I think if you decide to rework e.g. cities, either do them all or none

Same for character/outfits/weapons etc


This is honestly my biggest concern, the blog post also implies no existing armours/cosmetics will be updated, outside of the character's default clothing, leaving us with higher poly models hidden beneath lower poly outfits, making me wonder what the point even is.

I get that it's more work, but it also makes the update actually change something.


The point is we are going forward with update future outfits, while leaving the old cosmetics the more retro look players, especially in these RSOF, asked for.


Yeah, as I said, a complete clusterfuck

This game already looks goofy as hell with people running around with 3 triangle models and others going full particle-wings-laser eyes-flying-stupidass running animations etc

If at least there was a toggle/slider to unify the graphic style across your client, it would look so much better

There has always been one graphics model - the present one anytime in any of Jagex's games since 2001. Players always play and live with the present model. No need for any toggle as nobody is/was going to look at outdated models regardless they are playing in 2021 or were playing in 2001 or 2007.
