2/10 Low for P2P. Only skill worth noticing is range.

Sure, I agree with you. Never said I don't like the minigame concept. It's true that they give variety in training skills, stop the grinding and provide general fun. That's not my concern. My concern is, that with a lot of minigames (we have a lot, and Jagex is introducing more) the ingame landscape will change. Like I stated before: minigamescape. It is starting to give me some sort of funorb feeling. Perhaps it'd be advisable if Jagex removed some of the older, not popular minigames from Runescape. The newer minigames have much higher quality, thus could be replacing the old ones.

Imo, kalphites are heaven. A relative large ammount of blue charms and very nice cannon fodder.

Maybe that's your motivation. Don't know why you think you can generalize like that.

I prefer iron due it's easy to get a "flow" when mining iron. It's mining an ore. Click the next rock, have your mouse hoover on "drop" (on the iron ore you just mined) and click when you get the next iron ore. Repeat. Because you ALWAYS one hit iron (at least, when I powermined.. I was quite at a high level when I started) it's easy to maintain a dropping rhythm, without wasting time.

Any people here familiar with Dutch and Belgian beer? Just to name a few: La Trappe, Leffe, Kasteel, Brigand, Chimay, Westmalle, Karmeliet, Maredsous, Rochefort, Grimbergen...

I apologise if it felt like it was an attack on you, I was moreso trying to give an opinion from the other side of the fence, I guess. While you may not like minigames, there are plenty of people who do and considering it's really only one week of an update you may not support, I don't really think that's enough to warrant a call to completely stop creating minigames. And no, you are more than welcome to give your opinion, just as I am going to share my opinion on something I don't agree with. ;) If you put it in that perspective; alright. Enjoyable minigames are good. Naturally. Since people enjoy them. Allthough I might just enjoy the upcoming minigame, I don't like the concept. If Jagex creates too many enjoyable useful minigames, then it'll have a major impact on the layout of the game. Like I said before, it'll turn into minigamescape. I'd like to see that Jagex refrains from letting that happen. Allthough possibly enjoyable, more minigames will change Runescape's landscape for the worse. Minigames have only a small connection with the whole Runescape world. It doesn't really fit in. Now that would be fine if Runescape had just a few minigames. But we have so many already... Next thing we'll be no more than passing through the Runescape world, travelling from one minigame to another. Training all our skills via minigames, only using the "real" Runescape world for a bit of questing. Minigames should be an addition, not a main feature of the game. with the explosive increase in minigames, I feel the latter is becoming true.

You have to take care of the cat. If you don't, it'll run off.

The fact is, we have too many useless minigames. Crap like Vinespweeper, Gnome Restaurant and Ratpits are a complete waste. Well thought out minigames such as Stealing Creation, Castle Wars, Barrows or Barbarian Assault with fun and/or have good rewards awesome. I'm fine with Jagex putting there focus into well thought out minigames. Heh, well I think it's obvious we need well thought out content. Anyways, point is, if Jagex continues creating minigames at this rate, the game will soon turn into minigamescape. Like said above, we have a huge ammount of minigames already. Now, another one is coming, and Jagex has already announced another one. Where does this end? Seriously, Runescape will be a series of minigames in where you train your skills, if it continues like this. I mean, sure, perhaps the upcoming minigame is fun. But I am concerned about the landscape that Runescape is turning into. It'll look like a graphical version of Funorb, where you can browse through the games by walking to them on the map. Sure, that's a bit overdramatic, but seriously, we have enough minigames.

Why? Why not think there's no point in living, but just making the best of it, while you're here? I don't think live has a point at all. But I damn well not going to kill myself. Those are personal feelings toward life. What does that say about the general, universal question if there is an actual, factual generalizable reason to life?

Simply run off and return. They'll be aggressive again.

-Skeletal wyverns: Just take to long to kill. Annoying. -Steel dragons: Usually tasks consist of a small ammount of dragons, and there are only a few of them and often taken. Also hard to fight. -Warped terrorbirds: Not that hard, but a nuisance to kill. -Mithril dragons: tasks of just a few dragons, extremely hard to kill. Low xp, so no thanks.

Ambitious.. wonder if you'll make it through :)

Once again, I'm NOT complaining because I don't like them. There's more content I don't like. What Im arguing about is the FOCUS Jagex has on minigames. And ofcourse I'm selfish when I state my opinion about the updates. Just like anyone else. I don't know why you feel the need to criticize my opinion, while not judging others. Just because I am *not* positive about more minigames? Is it wrong to voice comments that are not like "z0mfg kewl" or whatever? I don't like to see more minigames. I like to see Jagex switch their focus a bit. What you think of that is irrelevant, since it's kinda an opinion. Feel free to post your opinion, and your happiness with the minigames. But don't judge my opinion like that. So once again... please Jagex, no more minigames.

So then, who's to say what a "real argumnt" is? Is "because people enjoy it" really less of an argument of "we already have too many"? The fact that people enjoy them, keep asking for them and the amount of positive feedback players give regarding most minigames are reason enough for Jagex to continue creating them. Is that real enough yet? First of all, I wonder where you find all the "moar minigames pl0x!" feedback you're talking about. Next to that, I'm arguing about the focus Jagex has when producing content for Runescape. A "people enjoy them" argument does not fit in. Because the same can be said for quests, new skills, new monsters and what not. It does not give an argument for the current focus Jagex has, nor an explanation.

You obviously haven't read my other posts. And if I feel Jagex is creating too many minigames, I'll just state that, ok? Feel free to disagree, but then post some real arguments instead of the useless crap you're posting now. And that's all I'm going to say about it. "Because people enjoy it" is no real argument. By the same argument we could reinstate RWT. I feel Jagex shifts their focus too much to minigame content while I'd say it's advisable to produce content that fits into the game. Maybe actually liven up the deserted places in Runescape (and not by placing another minigame). There are so many minigames already, it's time to give it a rest.

When people stop enjoying them? :roll: There's more than just you that plays this game. Gosh, really? Sorry, my bad then. Well now that you know hopefully you'll stop treating every update that you personally don't like as though it wasn't worth making. I was just giving my opinion, like anyone else. You might want to actually read what I said on the previous page before posting crap. So stop whining already.

Personal feelings set aside, I don't think Jagex likes this concept. I don't think they're very fond of the idea of charging money when lending something out.

I do not care about the ammount of people that will agree with me. I was simply stating my opinion. Excuse me? I'm just giving my opinion, like anyone else. This post says more about you. If you don't agree, that's fine. But grown up people discuss based on arguments, and not calling names. Might want to remember that. Yes they do seem a little pointless at times, and I think I would prefer bigger updates as well. But this is a game after all, and I often find myself playing these minigames simply because they are fun. Well true, not saying minigames are bad in general. I just feel that we have more than enough now. I already thought we'd have enough before SC came out, and now Jagex is releasing even more. Would be nice if they shifted the focus on other content, that actually fits in the whole Runescape world, instead of making (semi)secluded game areas where you can play some sort of minigame. If they continue this way we'll end up with a crapload of minigames, which will be abandonded after a small while. Especially the ones that give crappy rewards. There are already some minigames that are barely played.

If you don't like them, don't play them... there is still plenty of better things coming out as well, and this new minigame sounds fun... Worthless argument. I'm complaining about the focus Jagex has on minigames. I'd like the focus to be shifted on to other, useful, game related content. I'm not complaining about being forced to play them.

There's more stuff not in the commandments. Yet people still made stuff up. Religion damages society when they force their morals upon other people.

Oh please... when does Jagex stop creating minigames? Seriously, produce real content instead of silly little random games. There are a gazillion of them already. Make it stop. Please. Other than that: Good month.
