For those of you who aren't aware, there used to be another version of Runescape. It is now often refered to as "Runescape Classic." Runescape Classic only has three servers now and only about 300 players. Yup, the game gets pretty boring when there aren't that many people around. Jagex is pretty much just letting the game die off until there are no more people to play. When that time comes then the game will be completely lost. I know that I for one would love it if I could play this game again. Yes, I would probably only play it about once every two weeks but I still would like to play it once in a while. So why is Jagex letting it die off when they could use this deserted game to their advantage? I think that Jagex could use the game as a quest. There could be a group of researchers that have just dug up an ancient portal that leads to the Runescape Classic realm. This realm could be like just another dungeon, like Zanaris. One of the researchers could go into the portal and now the rest of the researchers are to scared to go in after him, so it is up to you to help them out. Once you enter the portal you will be in Runescape Classic. Then you can start asking the inhabitants of the Runescape Classic Realm if they have seen the explorer anywhere. Eventually, you find the explorer and save him from some type of beast or something and then safely return him to the exit portal which will take you both back to the World of Runescape. Upon completing the quest you will be rewarded with an amount of gold and a number of quest points as well as access to the "Runescape Classic Realm." -------------------------------- F.A.Q.'s (sort of :3> ) How will this work? The current Runescape servers will all contain a portal that leads to the "Runescape Classic Realm." This portal will be located at the site the researchers dug it up. In other words, wherever Jagex chooses. Will this update be available in free-to-play? Hopefully. As I have stated the quest can be wherever Jagex chooses so it basically just depends on what Jagex wants. Will I be able to keep my skills and items when I go into this "Runescape Classic Realm"? This is an excellent idea but again thats up to Jagex. It would probably be easier to make it so everyone starts off at level three like they had just come off of Tutorial Island because Runescape Classic and Runescape 2 are totally different games. Runescape 2 contains both skills and items that Runescape Classic doesn't. The combat system is also different. For example, magic will give you combat levels even if you are "melee based." I'm leaving this up for debate and disscussion so if you want to suggest a good way that skills and items can be kept then I would be greatful. Will the Runescape Classic Realm use the Runescape Classic combat system? Of course! The whole point of allowing players to visit Runescape Classic is so they can expeirence what the game was once like and learn more about the history of the Runescape world. --------------------------- Underbanners Section! -Here I have compiled a list of underbanners that you may use to help support the Revival of Runescape Classic.
