Aceethan Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 So with the recent graphic improvement to the G.E, Jagex also revamped the appearance of the Spirit Trees, making them more older looking and less cheesy.As I went through my farming runs, using the Spirit Trees to travel from place to place, I realized that I enjoy the corny version with the leaf mustachesmuch more then the new version and the fact that soon everything will soon be revamped is a daunting one. Does the loss of funny mustaches really change my game experience, not really. But will I still miss the talking trees that made me chuckle whenever I looked at them, yeah. So this is a post to talk about the things in RS that got updated or removed that you miss or enjoyed particularly more then the new version of said thing. So post away and lest us reminisce together about the things of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aceethan Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 There have been many threads about this but I would have to say evil chicken... I miss him. Yeah, I know this is a bit of a repetitive topic, but RuneScape is constantly changing and I've felt a little nostalgic lately so i thought it should be brought back up. P.S: I also miss the chicken as well as many other randoms that have vanished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheefoo Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Maybe looking at the old spirit trees make you chuckle, but personally, they make me up-chuck.

Den Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I know the RSWIKI has a page dedicated to showing the old and new version of Graphic Updates. Can't remember anything I miss, at least at the moment. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Squakus Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I miss the old mining rocks, where you could tell at a glance if they had ore or were empty. IMO demons looked much better with their long snouts, and every time i think of gnomes, either while reading a book or playing some other game, i think of the Runescape equivalent with their pointy heads. As the size of an explosion increases, the number of social situations it is incapabale of solving approaches zero. Ensure you are not a social situation.

Vezon Dash Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I miss the old dragon weapon animations. (scimi, long, 2h)I also miss the wield animations of the 2h where you held it on the shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I miss the Beta version of 2h swords, where you just held them like longswords.Also, dragons and demons in their beta graphic forms felt to me to be a better design than the current ones we have now. In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamykazee Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I can't sat i miss anything. It's just a dull game, graphics or no graphics. ( I don't play it anymore in case someone will come up with that in future posts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous_user Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I miss when naval slacks looked cool. When Jagex tried to fix them(after HD I think) they just made them look even worse. I also miss the aggressive random events, I enjoyed fighting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Squab Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 You know, half of the time people complain about graphics, it feels more like players are complaining about the change to something they're used to then actually disliking the new look. Or nostalgia, like this topic - I just hope people realize it's nostalgia, not that the older way looked better. The only way to get a true view on that is to ask someone looking at it for the first time which one is better. What I miss... general store. In the pre-GE days where people would sell their items in it and you could buy stuff other players sold there. To be honest, I wish there was some way you could incorporate the old general stores while keeping the GE somehow. Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.[spoiler=The rest of my sig. You know you wanna see it.]my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them meBuying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupineThe only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

The new rocks are way harder to tell whether they have ore in them, especially coal.I find it annoying also. Plus at some mining rocks the ores in the rock looks like crystals/gems, when it's completely different from what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellac Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I miss the old dragon scimitar, 2H and longsword looks. I also miss the events which killed bots back in the day. Thanks to Iglw for the amazing signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
