The days of the 3 hit combat system and level 1 varrock pure pking, yep ill relish those times. You killed someone for a r2h, traded it for a yellow phat, got pked 3 hours later and resold the phat for another r2h.
Runescape will follow its course like all RPG type games. The common theme in them is DEVS often 'dumb down' the game to appeal to what they think their player base wants. The only reason 07 got EOC was the mass amounts of RPG games that used rotatable skills for combat. Like World of Warcraft, which also ran a similar course in the dumbing down of usable rotations. We played rs because we didn't want all that mumbo jumbo, and now we are stuck with a dying game failing to attract new members because it is the exact crap mmorpg that every other one is.

The Gowers no longer control jagex.
A Chinese mining company does for the time being.
They wanting money are doing lots of mtx. Whatever brings them money and doesn't cost them is going to be the deal.
I would expect the chinese mining company to milk this game till it's dead. Then try for some more money.
Sad but true.
So sad, i actually feel like im working in a coal mine for some Chinese company now...
Workin' in the coal mine
Goin' down, down, down
Workin' in a coal mine
Oops, about to slip down
So sad
It's interesting that Runescape and WoW went down the same path and both the older versions of their games are more popular than current generation. I wonder if the companies will learn anything from this? Maybe let people play the original games?
Probably not.
