I was lucky to go out in Bertha too.. it's aaaawesome!!! :D
George and his friends that came to the studio all play RuneScape and have for a long time. They like many other players are pvpers and really enjoyed what they saw in relation to the combat beta.
They all had a great time. :)

On the one hand, if George Sampson really does play RuneScape, that's fantastic. It's great to see someone I look up to like that (his dancing and acting career) also play a game so close to me.
On the other hand, I've seen enough recent updates such as the SoF to know how easy it is for Jagex to lie through their teeth. And I'm sure it wouldn't take much to bribe someone into doing it too. As I said, I've seen his acting, so I know that could easily have been faked. If it is a lie, it's a very sad one.
In terms of the EoC, I'm of a mixed opinion. The animations are simply incredible, no doubt. The game seems a lot more personal and feels like a proper GAME now, rather than just a grind-fest.
However, I have my doubts. It is obviously changing a massive part of the game, and in September or whenever it's being implemented, I won't be playing the same game I am now. Many people (though I'm not included in them) really enjoy the current combat, because it is unique. They believe it should stay that way, and should not become a WoW copy.
Edit: I've just realised something very odd. George said he had his dance moves recorded. However, those kind of things require a weird suit with orbs (actually very similar to Jagmotion), or look at how Gollum was animated in The Lord of the Rings. I highly doubt you use technology that does not require that kind of embarrassing outfit. I'm just a man; I'm not a hero.
Just a boy who had to sing this song.

@Heidly Ees - He really does play RS. :)

I don't care if he plays runescape. I just hope Jagex loses another couple thousand of players like they did in 06. The beta sucks and you know it. Check the forums you damn liars.
Why not make a poll like you did for the wildy? Oh because there's no point. People would realize how opposed everyone is. Also just as a side note I know Jagex only made a wildy poll because it was obvious everyone wanted it back. I know Jagex did it only for the hype. You hypocrites. RWT=SoL as well...

The people like me who actually like the BETA do not go on every thread and comment, so although it may SEEM like everyone hates it, i'd put my money on a majority liking it. The poll would show this, i guarantee it.
