This is a hcim account that I maxed after some 4 years of playing. But now I've gone and started a regular account some weeks ago on OSRS. I got tired of RS3, basically, and now I find OSRS to be refreshing.
Never drop a valuable item.

I’m struggling with myself for playing based on other’s expectations.

Didn’t want maxed, quest cape or now, 120s.

Keeping it short, got those achievements because dick heads elites on ge or forums keep hs me up or compare wealth evaluator with me.

Now I’m grinding content for comp cape that I never wanted initially because some ironman said “Maxed? That’s pretty shit. You should’ve been comped by now or maxed ironman”

Profile stalking now are we?

Ever occurred to you I maxed first before joining because they advertised they take people on raids?

And btw, don’t think my clan is elitist just coz of the title. No one here expects anyone to push past what they excel at and everyone in clan is polite, amicable and don’t look down on even non maxed players within or outside of clan.

Oh and everyone agrees there’s a portion of the commmunity on forums that are toxic and elitist who looks down on others.

I’m referring to the random strangers I meet while mining, questing, standing in the ge or enroute to temple of aminishi or another Telos kill. Or when I use the forums. Was about to suggest 120 familiar balancing ideas for another guy, saw his attitude towards non 120s and thought “fuck him” I’m not helping a guy who’s driving away the lower leveled community so we end up exactly what I’ve said for the hundredth time, games like Onigiri online or Jagex’s War of Legends where elitism killed both and the high level community had no one to play with but themselves and eventually quit. (In WoL’s case someone took matters against toxicity into his or her own hands and ended up destroying the game for good. Gg well done)

Iso Decoder, if the game is about keeping up with the Jones, don't play. I have ceased to care years ago. Why I am just doing Sires on OSRS now. When I get for Slayer that is. I do what is fun to me. Not what the crowd does. Only Raids I care about now is Chambers of Xeric.

I have considered playing iron man. Though if I do it I would have done it on osrs and not rs3.

The grind that was a thing of the past. I did love that time and we where very competitive with skilling clans and such. Supreme skillers had a few very competitive players,it was pretty great but for me it most likely was a one time thing.

That is what is withholding me from playing osrs tbh. I know I simply can not play it casual and if I would play it I know I would go all in again on the grind and try be competitive. Its the only way I can play this game I am afraid. Either that or do nothing but bankstand and chill/trade.

You say ironman is healthy,but at the same time you did play it 3 days straight which I think is not sign of "healthy" gameplay. To relive being a low level is nice though,i can see that. But that I would prefer on osrs,to really get that nostalgia feeling.
