TheGreatGeno Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 2006 was the period where I played RS the most. My activity declined a lot in 2007 and completely quitting just before 2008. I just started again a few weeks ago, and the game just doesn't feel the same. It's still great and I still enjoy playing it, but it just doesn't feel the same as it did in 2006. For anyone else who's been playing since then, how do you feel about current RS vs. 2006 RS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeafLaska Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I don't the game itself was any better in 2006. I just think the memories I have make them better. Remembering the old days makes everything seem better than what it really was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doughnut Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I played off and on repeatedly from like '04-'07(or later late '06) and I just came back short of a month ago. And let me tell you I've been having a blast, this game is still as much fun as it was then, your interest is still not there more likely.

Stubness Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 IMO, 2006 was better.But really, the earlier the better.I would take a previous version of RS over the atm RS. Since October 2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doughnut Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 So I'm seeing one of two things. Rose-Tinted glasses & Typical responses so the forum thinks your "cool". If you want to state that 2006 is better then today's game then give some reasons, otherwise you might as well post +1 and call it a day.

If you people are really serious about it, go ahead and play Runescape Classic.

aspeeder Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I think that if people started to play 2006 rs without all of the new convenient updates that have occurred since then they'd be pretty damn aggravated. http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww6/aspeeder/Siggy_zpsewaiux2t.png  99 Strength since 6/02/10 99 Attack since 9/19/10 99 Constitution since 10/03/10 99 Defense since 3/14/11 99 Slayer since 8/30/11 99 Summoning since 9/10/11 99 Ranged since 09/18/11 99 Magic since 11/12/11 99 Prayer since 11/15/11 99 Herblore since 3/29/12 99 Firemaking since 5/15/12 99 Smithing since 10/04/12 99 Crafting since 9/16/13 99 Agility since 9/23/13 99 Dungeoneering since 1/1/14 99 Fishing since 2/4/14 99 Mining since 2/28/14 99 Farming since 6/04/14 99 Cooking since 6/11/14 99 Runecrafting since 10/10/14 9 Fletching since 11/11/14 99 Thieving since 11/14/14 99 Woodcutting since 11/20/14 99 Construction since 12/03/14 99 Divination since 2/22/15 99 Hunter since 2/23/15 99 Invention since 01/20/17 99 Archaeology since 5/14/22Quest Point Cape since 08/20/09 Maxed since 2/23/15 Fire Cape since 02/27/13 Slayer: 3 Leaf-Bladed Swords, 8 Black Masks, 2 Hexcrests, 26 Granite Mauls, 5 Focus Sights, 32 Abyssal Whips, 9 Dark Bows, 1 Whip Vine, 3 Staffs of Light, 15 Polypore Sticks Dragon: 9 Draconic Visages, 7 Shield Left Halves, 20 Dragon Boots, 40 Dragon Med Helms, 8 Dragon Platelegs, 6 Dragon Spears, 20 Dragon Daggers, 5 Dragon Plateskirts, 1 Dragon Chainbody, 63 Off-hand Dragon Throwing Axes, 19 Dragon Longswords, 27 Dragon Maces, 1 Dragon Ward Treasure Trails: Saradomin Full Helm, Ranger Boots, Rune Body (t), Saradomin Vambraces, Various God Pages Misc:1 Onyx,1 Ahrim's Hood, 1 Guthan's Chainskirt, 1 Demon Slayer Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utopia Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I probably enjoy the current RS the most. Levels are easier to gain, money is easier to obtain. 2006 was fun and it seems better now, but I think this RuneScape is probably the best.

highlanders Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 People don't realize how far the game has come. No grand exchange. No lending system. No assist system. The walking backwards bug. No good bosses. No summoning and so on. The people on this game are ridiculously nostalgic. I'd rather go forward than backwards. 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
