After leaving RS2 10 years ago i returned for OSRS to get the great experience of how it used to be. im just sad about the fact that OSRS is slowly turning into RS3 alike.

Ofcourse jagex should keep updating with new content or the game dies. I like the way polls are used to get new content that people support, the only thing is each question is mostly about yes or no answers. It should consist more options. For instance adding untradable cosmetic items. I said no because i want it to be tradable. but it doesnt mean i dont like the idea. That option is not listed in the answers. Maybe the option to add comments on poll questions, wich can be voted for.

The only thing i dont get and dont like is that everything now becomes a point based system for rewards and minigame alike, its not skill based anymore that way. And you see tier 1 tier 2 etc, It should be more old school, this gives me rs3 vibes. Its a game about training skills not playing minigames, thats a game in a game. Connect new updates to skills ad new tabs in the skills to add new things to them from lvl 1 to 99, that sounds old school to me.

Also kourend is great for some skills, its not to overpowered where other skilling methods fall away. But man the land is chaotic as hell. The colors are way to vibrant, not matching anything of old school. The graphical things added in the landscape are not matching the old school, take a hay bale for instance, its totally different, with no options. try and use a starting point of designing, take lumbridge varrock as a model to use and build it up like that. This also gives me rs3 vibes. Wich i think it shouldnt be there and should be reverted. it feels to me to much RS3 influence is implemented by creators who create at RS3.

I dont hope jagex makes the new skill becomming a minigame like dungeoneering. The moment that got in the game back in the day i quit.

Please make a polls for all this.

And penguin spying needs to make a return! Bye.

Dang. If only Jagex would come out and make a firm stance on whether or not this skill would be like a minigame. IF ONLY they would state like, say, 40 times in a livestream somewhere, that they don't want to make a minigame. IF ONLY they also stated in every single update blog that they don't want it to feel like a minigame. IF ONLY they had announced that everything about this skill will be polled! IF ONLY Jagex could quell some of these concerns! I mean, it's not like all of these questions have already been answered and the people complaining about this simply refuse to read it!

You dont have to get worked up about my opinion. Im sorry if i offended you. In my perspective this is a seperate game from RS3 called old school and should stay this way. I just stated my observations after 10 years of absence in wich i think it is out of bounds of being OSRS. If you want EOC its already there for you to play on RS3. Furthermore if it is anounced so many times it wont become a minigame then i think jagex will do their best. But looking at what they have added sofar i have my doubts of them for implementing that the right way.

If you played this game a bit more you'd realize the reason they want to do untradeable. If everything was tradeable then there would be no reason to do the pking in the bounty world. someone like you who just started could buy the items off the GE. nobody would even care if you had those items at that point because they were tradeable, and most likely cheap. At least for items such as TBow, people are awed because of price.

Sarcasm must not be your strong suit. Yes they're separate games and that is my point. I'm so sick and tired of these purists who make up like 10% of the game's population who think absolutely every single change to the game is suddenly going to turn into EOC over night. Maybe give Jagex more than a single update blog on a new skill concept before you conclude it's going to be the next EOC; this is a design process they already acknowledged will take over a year and here you are concluding its effects on the game after a single post less than 2 weeks after the vote. At least do the bare minimum and read the blogs, then maybe you'd at least know they already addressed the "minigame" issue. Like when did it become such a high standard to do bare minimum research on a subject before airing your opinion to the unwashed masses?

You state these are your observations after 10 years of absence, which tells me you haven't been playing the game. Which tells me you haven't been around for all of these updates in which 70-75% of the community minimum voted to add all of this content. You're coming back to a game you aren't invested in to tell players who've been investing their opinions into for years that they've ruined it. You weren't expecting a warm reception were you..?

P.S. I play both OSRS and RS3. They both appeal to different playstyles. Now with added

I think your concerns don't actually have anything to do with 'rs3'. Could you elaborate a bit more on the minigamey aspect? In RS2 minigames were a huge part of the playing experience, castle wars, BH, Duel Arena come to mind. Even presently deserted ones like the Burthorpe Games Room and Gnomeball were fairly populated in those days.

With regards to the new skill I do encourage you to participate actively in the discussion as Jagex has said they don't want Sailing to become a minigame, that's why the skill design process is purposely detailed and protracted.
