Ok let's be honest:

If they had any sort of representation of runescape *would players at all, not even just olschool they would not have released many of the updates that have already happened on osrs. To think that they quickly throw sailing at us this soon into osrs (under ten years) is absurd. They are passing things they personally want in their personal group of people and prefrences and passing it like a corrupted government through a single "bill" in this case "poll".

Here's some reasoning,
The range and mage looks forced, and besides a few photos I just see a knock off for more male melee content. Now this did not happen until recently that I noticed, ronan riding around in a boat for example.

Sailing is a cute idea, maybe put more time work and poll it in rs3, because it should be clear to anyone by now that osrs needs to remain the same if not go backwards for another ten-twenty years to come.

Seriously though if you defend the over abundance of melee content you probably have a maxed account as you are typing now.

And the only reason we will see equalizing of the combat triangle is because you can't do any more as melee per se and are getting bored like you are of osrs and want to start range mage. lol the death of osrs will be near at this rate.

Here is something very important to reflect on:

We have a dozen plus dragon weapons, none for range or magic.

The spear or staff could have been magic based for example,

Also the runite crossbow is a runite crossbow like a rune scimitar, so add dragon crossbow limb drop from dragons regardless of this failscape update and make it have a special attack like armadyl crossbow so it will be on par with a dds or d2h special attack at least. You then at least need to make armadyl crossbow equivalent or more level to ags along with adding saradomin crossbow bandos crossbow ect with the similar effects of the sgs bgs. Now don't get me wrong it is not because I want more range, it is because of the over abundancy of melee and melee power that they over compensated for and now it's time to even out. And really fire wave is the best magic skill regular book?

All that rework at least, with not a single addition to melee content. If anything remove some since you clearly have so much content you don't even touch like black armour. Probably maxed and bored from afk nmz while I train 30k an hour. Definitely no more melee for ten years.

It's no for me. I am sorry mods, but I really think this is a good fit for oldschool.

It's a good idea, but perhaps it should become it's own stand alone game for a year to see just how many people log in.




BTW, I love to sail IRL. It was a tough decision for me.
