After reading the update news today, i have decided that the essence of runescape is gone. Back when I played RS i enjoyed the freeness, the ability to basically do what I want, whether it be to treck around the wilderness with a bunch of friends, hunting down PKers, or hanging out in world 2 trying to catch the best deal on an item. With the additions to the duel arena, wilderness, and merchanting, I think the essence of what runescape used to be, is completely gone. I used to love merchanting, the thrill of getting a great deal on a rare, or the fun of hunting a player down in a huge wild, and the excitment of winning a duel worth 100m gp by 3 hit points. all of these fun things are gone from RS, and with them being gone, RS has lost its flare. Good game gold sellers, you killed the game. Jagex, sorry it had to come down to this. -Taters
