Day 371 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

I have to say I really loved RuneScape quests. Some of the quests are incredibly humorous and really clever.

The quest about neighbourhood wizard robbing a bank and the accompanying “security cam footage” of him “pwning noob players” during robbery but denying everything has stuck with me as a core memory.

I love how casual it is. A lot of MMOs I feel like are very heavy fantasy, but RuneScape just goes wild which I love
That is so true! And there (atleast when I played) wasn’t much group content so you never had to stress about that either (unlike in other mmos)
The minimal group content is very much appreciated lol. I know it kind of goes against the point but i don’t like really doing group stuff
Same, mostly because it’s not relaxing anymore and you need to manage time as well. I can’t always commit so much time unfortunately and we all know how toxic some MMO players can be! (not always but yeah)

I’ve been self hosting a 2009scape server recently so it has been fun to replay it.

It doesn’t have all the content from osrs but is lets me play members without have to pay or deal with online dickheads.

What dickheads are there in osrs? Unless you seek it out yourself? Everyone is just going about their business.
I’ve thought about looking into my own server but with how off and on again with RuneScape I just stay f2p
ah, Runescape. The version I played aaaages ago is apparently now called “Classic”. The only thing I (barely) remember from those times are my massive piles of Kebab -items in my inventory, they were dirt cheap as healing items, but they did have a chance of dealing damage when eaten, instead of healing. :D
The goblins being peaceful might be due to your combat level. Once you outlevel an enemy by a certain amount, they stop auto-attacking you and you have to initiate combat with them if you want to.
Ooh. It’s possible. I think I’m around Level 39 so that might be it
What a great game! Such a unique and engaging way to do questing in videos games. Finishing the quests without a guide is such an incredibly rewarding experience! Some are pretty hard to figure out, but it’s soooooo good.
I also recently started playing osrs again. I highly recommend using the Runelite client! It has a lot of extra plugins that will both make the game look better, run better and help you with quests. You can choose how much help you want too. That plugin is called QuestHelper. Runelite is also acknowledged and accepted by Jagex so no worries on that front, the majority of osrs players use Runelite.

I began playing Runescape in 2007. I watched it go through so many changes over the years. The original game is now almost completely unrecognisable from the way it used to be!

I dipped in and out of OSRS for a few years as well. I no longer play it, but I logged into my account a few days ago. Here’s the stats I had before I quit
