Anyways No.

Classic had like 10 players on each day maybe, and that was in 2018

They shut it down cause the game died.

They gave you OSRS instead which is far more popular. Down the line RS3 and OSRS will be shutdown too once profits fall. Just like any other MMO will if the player count dips too much, and their profits show red for awhile


Exactly.

Ppl really need to start understanding that theres 0 logic in bringing it back.

Just because you like something, isnt a reason for it to return.

^ they only gave us osrs after their enslaved an entire generation of young people before selling out with plans to do it again with osrs or do you not understand the precedent Rob explained which is "new owner... no more promises". Dear God, please send the competition, feels like there ain't any.
I long lost count of the victories, there were just far too many.

Wow such a strong word with "Enslaved".... That's such a strong but useless word to use.

Ya the precedent that many other companies have done before. Shutting down games that are no longer profitable due to low playerbase.

Wildstar
EQ Next (Announced then cancelled)
Classic Runescape
Life is Feudal MMO

See? This precedent has been set long before Jagex decided to shutdown Classic.

You guy don't understand no company is going to continue to operate a dead game that is operating in the red.. It's not fiscally responsible nor smart

Ugh just let this thread die man.. Classic is never coming back. You're never going to get the source code or permission to run classic yourself. Just let this thread die it's slow and painful death just like Classic... Time4Rants RIP Never Forget! 2010-2013, In Memory of Old Timer: ""I'm a doctor, not a spiritual medium!" RIP ;(

Good to see you back on this thread, Rob! :)

Another Bump to keep this thread alive! :)


Yes a thread that has not had any replies since Feb 24th, and one that didn't do anything to engage the topic or cause interaction. That's the sound of the last gasp of a thread wanting to be put out of its misery and find peace through the Page 51 monster. How could you be so inconsiderate? Do you not hear its cries for sweet sweet release and quiet that only death can provide it? Who are you to decide whether this thread should continue live! This thread is a hollow shell without a soul... Its OP gave up on it. And now it is time for it to be release and embrace death.

Just like Classic RS... a former shadow of itself, and hence killed for no longer being profitable. RIP for good Classic.
