When I heard that Jagex might release
an old 2007 version of Runescape I think all those who used to play
pictured this new release to be exactly as it was six years ago.
Every person, slang, nuance and tradition would be put right back in
what to me was its sacred place. In this sense we were all
disappointed.
Old School Runescape having been out
for months is finally taking on form. Looking at this newly hatched
game I saw that it wasn't the same Runescape I had left after the
introduction of the grand exchange. People talked strangely, fought
offbeat, traded weirdly. Maybe the difference was the introduction of
younger players who had never played old Runescape, maybe it was the
influence of players coming from current Runescape. Whatever it was
this game was simply better.
The old guides don't apply much
anymore for dominating trade or fighting in the wild. That's what
this blog is for. I (swordedge199), with the help of my brother (xM A
Xx) and his clan, are going to put together guides, commentaries,
articles and ideas to create a complete picture of Old School
Runescape: a game much more novel and enjoyable than I could ever
have hoped for.

Looking good Joe! The only thing, in my opinion, Old School is missing is that it's not ACTUALLY in 2007. We don't have all our friend from school online, we're not newbs playing it for the first time and discovering the world as we go. It's a different approach; we're veterans revisiting a world we've basically mastered.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, it's a whole new perspective which just brings a whole new level of fun. That's the thing about 07scape is that it seems to hold on it's own. It's got that nostalgia feel which may be what actually gets us to go prodding around, but it's the Runescape we all love that unfortunately decayed (or, to some people, evolved) into Evolution of Combat.
I liked reading your post though and I look forward to more posts!
