I don't think people hate Zanik as a personality right now, but instead has a issue with cheap OSRS Gold the way Jagex is currently putting her into articles she does not automatically fit into. To me, The Mighty Fall is the ideal conclusion for her story arc if you opt to spare her. If Jagex really wants to bring her back, I can even argue this opens up the potential for a future Yu'biusk narrative.

Rather where she is quite out of place, then she kinda became this representative of the Underworld in Desperate Times, which doesn't match her personality. Her whole story was about freedom and independence, about resisting a fate. Reducing her role to an emissary can only be described as"odd" at best. Like why put her into a role she's nothing to do with when her narrative has a conclusion that is very good? Then. She somehow became this Bandosian digsite's surface.

I wouldn't go so far as to say those developments ruin her characterization, but they certainly seem unnecessary disappointing at worst. They serve no real purpose in terms of personality development, and just appeared to make a good ending less gratifying than it would have been had the narrative.

Jagex working on triple AAA mmorpg, hopefully RuneScape: Remastered

Inspired by the record of matches that are not main-line RS games of Jagex, it'll be a waste of money, and will be discontinued over 1-2 decades. Furthermore, if you wonder why RS3 development has slowed to a crawl, this is the reason. I frankly think this might be make or break for Jagex, but maybe I'm just being cynical. I think it undeniable that RS3 is on the decline, given that the material droughts and frequency of events like DXP to try and keep some quantity of player activity. OSRS has a lifespan too; its playerbase exists exclusively due to nostalgia.

I'd be interested just how many OSRS players had never played RuneScape prior to trying OSRS; certainly at least a few on account of the simple fact that it's become somewhat of a cultural phenomenon/icon but it can not be very many. I envision curiosity about a 13 year really grind-heavy, mostly obsolete old MMORPG running on a 20 year old spaghetti powered motor is not quite high among audiences that didn't grow up playing RuneScape to start with. Some sort of RuneScape Remastered or MMO set in the RuneScape world might be RuneScape's only real hope. You're completely correct about Jagex's dreadful handling of every other game they've ever made, so I'm hardly optimistic.

Look at steam amounts, or player counts games such as cod. Runescape generally has at least 20kish players online. Thats 24/7 games fantasy of numbers like that. Just the most successful games have players. Can it be less than it'd sure, is it close to death? Not even near it. If you produce a game now you expect is has even a fraction of the players. Look at wolcen, they had like players on the first day and they didn't even imagine or prepare for that many gamers so the servers took a shit. Today Runescape averages less than 2k gamers.

Such as they used to in the rpg and mmo side of this market there are to cheap RS gold many games now days for matches to support huge numbers. RS3 has a good 20-30k on much at any time. With upward of like 45k at peaks. It'd be to low 20's on steam charts in rank if we are comparing to steam charts. Which is really a really good spot to be in contemplating that's where a lot of the games place on steam graphs such as ESO and fantasy.
