One of the reasons why I don't play OSRS is the lack of GE. Before it even existed, we used to live just fine because we didn't know any better, but you could say the GE made me lazy, and rightfully so, as it provides an immeasurable amount of comfort. Now I feel I simply can't go back to the old age of RuneScape, especially in times when quests require you to bring "obscure" items that are not broadly traded.

Another reason why I don't go back is the lack of Summoning. It sounds silly, I know, but I wouldn't be able to stand a full trip in GWD without my trusty uni or even a tort! I mean, I used to play just fine back when these didn't exist, but now that I know they do...

Lack of antialiasing and resizable mode: I tend to not mind graphics much. But the ones for 07 are unbearable now that I had the chance to experience RSHD.

To summarise: There have been a lot of quality of life updates that made RuneScape very comfortable over the years. 07 lacks some very basic ones, and I simply can't go back.

There, I got it out and said it.

I agree with all of those things, but I enjoy oldschool as a game more than I do rs3 so that's why I primarily play that now.

Ideally jagex could have just set up a version of rs from like 2011/2012 and labelled it "rs2" After the rs3 launch.

Most games companies I know let you play the older version and still support them. I can still get into online lobbies with other people on the very first call of duty game ffs.

Instead we're stuck with a 2007 revision of the game, without the manpower to pull it forward graphically, or majorly content wise. :(

I'm incredibly awkward.

I'm also a major conversation killer irl. It's not my fault! I just speak without thinking of the consequences most of the time :(

Just a pre-EoC version would've sufficed. I don't mind remaking my character from scratch if it's for a good reason. Although if they were to do this, they might as well just scrap the EoC altogether instead of wasting further resources on it.
