No thanks. The sheer number of holes in that last quest soured it for me.

Plus the fact that it's been over a year and you haven't rebuilt the old quest bosses to be truly challenging in the new combat system. All that one patch did was make a few of them not die in a single hit. I want grandmaster quest bosses that push me to the limit and make me use an entire inventory of food. (I'd say full level 70 equipment would be a good bar to balance around)

You know those bosses like the Phoenix and the old man's bone monster? Repeatable stuff like that, only challenging. I loved the fight caves, kiln, and fighting QBD for my crossbow.

Last I was there, they have vanity pets which you can buy and then sell on the auction house, which is a little microtranny, except it counts on there being a demand for a completely cosmetic pet. Not nearly as bad as we currently have it.

Oh come on people! Leave your hate behind you!

If they win this for a third time, it will bring thousands of new players in, who will subscribe, which will mean Jagex will have a larger budget for giving you what you asked for.

As it is, they've done quite a lot in this year.

They've tweaked EoC combat so it isn't as broken.
They've given us a pre-EoC alternative!
Bots are a thing of the past, as is the RWT problem.

Leave your hate at home, vote for Jagex and RS3!

Oh well done Jagex! What an achievement to be nominated for such a prestigious award along with... 19 other games. Was wondering how on earth you got nominated for an award so that's why.

"Jagex has previously won two awards"

"To support RuneScape in this year’s Golden Joysticks"

Talk about being contradictory.

"There has never been a more exciting time for RuneScape and we hope that you’ve enjoyed all the fantastic updates so far in 2013."

Talk about deluded.

Stop acting like you're the greatest company on earth that has created the greatest game on the planet. When you last won a GJA, you were up there but now you're just awful. 2013 has been an awful year, I know it, most of the community knows it and I'm hoping that some of your employees know it and want to rectify it. The only year that i can think of that can compete with this year is 2012 which was just plain awful.

With you asking for our votes after the "epic/awesome/brilliant/awe-inspiring" content that was actually lame and overhyped is a bit spit in our faces, well yet another spit in the face in a long line of them from recent times.

I would love it if you didn't even break into the top 5 and I'm loving how at least half of the comments on this thread are negative. I personally don't think I will vote seeing how Runescape is the only game on the list that I play and I don't feel you even remotely deserve an extra vote.

And I hope you're not deluded into thinking that you have a chance in winning, League of legends will win hands down, regardless of many things that could happen really, it is just too popular in my opinion.

2012 was Jagex's highest profit year yet, and we have had the worst content seen in Runescape in the last 1 and a half years, what makes you think that giving them more money will help in any way?

The EOC should have been completed in 2012 when it was released or the release should have been delayed until it was ready. And it's not broken? Try PvP or any PvP minigame and some quest bosses.

07scape fair enough although they shouldn't have killed the nostalgia of the game which made people want an alternative.

If bots and RWT aren't a problem then what on earth is up with bonds? They must have been released purely for micro-transaction purposes if that is true which is disgraceful.

I can't think of any great updates this year that warrants voting for Jagex. And even if I did, there aren't enough people left playing for Jagex to stand even the slightest chance of winning. Too bad the whales propping up the game can't buy a couple extra votes as well.

The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, Fulton, and the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.
