LucidNightmare, do games w Old School Runescape is raising membership prices

Hello! Just going to plug 2009scape, which is an open source version of old school RuneScape. It is available to download and play entirely offline with single player. It is just fine enough if you just want to scratch that age old RuneScape itch. :)

Holy moly I didn’t know you could still play old RuneScape. I think I found my account like 8 years ago after not playing for a decade and I was like “neat” and signed off. Lol

Jimmycakes,

Its wildly popular

Luminocta,

It is popular and it has a huge amount of added content with raids, quests, areas and boss fights that are super hard.

cyberpunk007,

I lost all my Spirit when I grinded for the best sword, I forget what it was called, then my account was compromised :/. So many hackers back then.

ThoranTW,

From the sounds of it, your account would be on the “original” Runescape 3, rather than the Old-school Runescape this post is about.

Old-school Runescape is essentially a fork of a random backup they found of the game as it existed in 2007 that they released in 2013 after a lot of dissatisfaction about how Runescape had changed over that timespan.

None of the accounts/characters from the original game were migrated.

cyberpunk007,

Oh this is good to know. That’s neat.

Now it’s no longer cheaper than WoW. Great!!!

Lowpast,

There’s grandfather rates plus bulk discounts!

Commiunism, (edited )

Not anymore, they’re killing grandfather rates with this update

EDIT: Nope, it’s only for 12-month premier club deal that happens once a year

Pika,

Only for premeire club and that was already a thing from what I understand

Lowpast,

Read closer- they are not removing grandfathered rates for 1 and 6 month packages that do not let membership lapse for more than 14 days.

Commiunism,

Oh yeah, ty for correction.

More expensive than WoW and FFXIV, and those games let you have a bunch of characters on the same sub. Amazing business move

Skipcast,

They recently made it possible to have multiple characters on one account

Commiunism,

You still pay for membership separately tho

Skipcast,

Really? Well that’s fucking stupid.

Commiunism,

Yeah, it’s a real sore spot for the community too - people often have 2 or more accounts due to various account types like mains who have no restrictions, ironmen who can’t trade and gotta get everything themselves, group ironmen which is ironman but co-op in a 5 person group and other modes that add additional limitations.

jagex is a very shitty company and shitty companies don’t want money, they want all the money. they will kill this game eventually. I hate jagex, from jagex accounts which is just a blatant attempt to phase out 3rd party tools and lock people to their ecosystem (which also fucked me over because the new account system blocks my entire country) to their customer service which is horrendous.

now they’re raising prices to appear more profitable probably to trick another prospective buyer and get tossed around again.

People still play the old version of Runescape? Wow I wasn’t aware of this.

ECB,

It’s even more popular than the ‘main’ version!

Kingdom of Loathing is better.

No voters unite! Osrs has no new skill, osrs needs no new skill

dom,

I know nothing about this, genuinely curious. Wouldn’t the new content be optional? If so, why couldn’t you just ignore it

thanevim,

Indeed it would. From what I have read and seen, I actually think this could be a lot of fun, and would be enough for me to start back up my membership. But every player uninterested in it can simply ignore it the same way they ignore having fun with Cooking

SouthernCanadian,

Devil’s advocate, it’s not optional if you want to keep your max cape, which is probably the best QoL item in the game

hemko,

Not only max cape but it affects almost all game forward. Imagine you make an account and opt out from magic or prayer.

FracturedEel,

And also you have to sell your soul to get one so

ryannathans,

You sound like you’d fit in at !2009scape

@nanoUFO Hmm hope it passes, didn't play recently but I wouldn't mind sailing.

EthicalDogMeat, do games w Old School RuneScape's poll for new sailing skill

I haven’t played for years but I enjoy the memes and YouTube content. Sailing would mean more content to watch so I hope it passes
