A solid proposition well worth exploring! A plethora of benefits come out of implementing this new system. Would it be possible to chisel Mod Sween or Mod Ash onto my gravestone in-game? :P
Jokes aside, I can't wait to see the final results!

All these snowflakes whinging about implementing the proper old school death mechanics of 2mins are the reason this game gradually became worse over the years and lost its spirit. My connection is terrible and I frequently die but I don’t mind losing my items if it means some noob gets the same experience I had years ago when a high level player died and I got a chance to pick up their items and the excitement that came with that. All people care about nowadays is efficiently and convenience. Everyone is forgetting the most important thing of all, this is just a game. To this day I have not had more fun in this game than killing goblins in Lumbridge 15 years ago, who cares if you lose your items.

The game is to safe theres no danger to any PvM content in the game. You can boss all day make millions like GWD, TOB, Chambers, Corp and even wildy bosses. You die a PvM death and you can keep all your items. Just not logical for me. Its been years and all the connection issues are solved give us back the danger of losing items makes things just a little more exciting. Atm almost everything is instanced and protected makes things boring in my opinion. Also missing the random dangerous random events why are they only making this game easier? Its osrs for something!

I play on worlds with servers closest to me that always have low ping, and since the talk has started about the death mechanics. I'v already notice ping spikes, id assume this is from servers being attacked since it isn't to do with my internet connection. Curious if others have noticed this as well?

Is this being polled? Because I'll quit if this is in the game. I was just about to hit 2k total for the first time, that sucks. Both changes are horrible ideas. Mostly it's the financial requirement to get back your items regardless of how fast or slow you get back. I get having to pay if your items were to say, despawn, but definitely not if you get back to where you died within a reasonable amount of time. That's just stupid, and it's even stupider when you shorten the timer. Yeah, it was like that originally, but the game world was half the size. Are you putting a maxed POH requirement on retreiving your gear when you die? Nice one.

Don't fix what isn't broken. You can run this potato game on a ti1080 and still get 3 tick of lag and stacked out...nobody wants to run back to dags, or get kc again after that happening. If you want to sink gold somehow, come up with something more original.

The floor for low level pvm and gold making already takes 300+ hours of account work. This would just kill the game for new players seeking higher content. Finally got that sick guthans set? oops 4-tick lag at zammy, have fun running back without gear and get your cc/key, or spend your already abysmal cash stack to get your gear back.

I am all for raids having death penalty, because raids are high-end content, but these new mechanics will decimate this community further after the summer. 80% of "players" are bots anyways, why alienate and push people away from your game even more. #Botscape2022
