Metaform Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I think I remember seeing this thread back in my forum lurking days, shortly after realizing Tip.it actually had a forum worth reading rather than just quest guides and the rest.. :oops: I quit RS for WoW for 3 years, but I came back. Who woulda thunk That's me too, except it's more like 5 years of WoW with multiple returns to RS and trying other MMOs... I can't help but say there is something about this game that keeps me coming back and enjoying it, when most new games bore me after a week. I never imagined I would still be coming back here, or that I would hate a game and its "gamers" as much as I do WoW. <_< The doomsayers who say it's on it's last legs, are just doomsayers. They will always be around. On the other hand, I do agree that if microtransactions are to become common, I will become frustrated with the company and leave. I'll continue to play as long as I have time and am interested. I couldn't agree more. Having played many games, there is always these types, and very seldom are they actually correct.

jasignhagj Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Lol i love the oil debate here. If we finally move on to Nuclear power (which is far safer - don't let movies fool you - and efficient) then we'll never run out of power, and thus, RS will still be around. JAPAN Idiots like you are why we will never get off foreign oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and the wise old man go way back.... he was a foolish boy back then. My crystal armour idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasignhagj Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Not to mention that the radiation given off by coal plants is higher than the radiation given off by a nuclear plant anyways. OT: I think RS will die within a few years, and the only way Jagex can save it is by creating a Runescape 3 with less grind and more activities like the Falador cerimonial smithing place.

Unb34t4bl3 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I'm going to go with maybe, because who knows to be honest. I played from 2003-2005 and didn't see myself ever playing again. I came back four years later and started up again, 2009-2011. When you take a really long break such as I did, the game feels very different when you get back. So 2016... maybe? I sure as hell won't be playing for 5 years straight though. If I do play 5 years from now, it'll be because I took another very long break sometime in between now and then.

Ginger_Warrior Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I don't think there's much debate that RuneScape will be buried before 2016. Maybe not long buried, but it will be buried. A more appropriate question, in my opinion, is whether World of Warcraft will still be around. I'm no WoW fan, believe me, but I'd suggest it has more longevity left in the tank than RuneScape does simply because it's more popular and therefore has more momentum within its community. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think that's what it comes down to in terms of longevity. When will it stop bringing in enough money to justify still keeping it up.

Waltchelg Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 God dammit i'm still here. my thoughts exactly. I always end up playing a little bit each year. My account just slowly keeps climbing up there in total level. Starting Playing RS: ages ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlowinRedM Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I'm sure it will limp on, from year to year, slowly losing frustrated customers. But I don't think it will be Jagex's fault. All games are bound to end sometime. Pretty much hit the nail on the head The corp beast, is, well, just a corp beast. He doesnt even have any friends.[spoiler=Other Quotes]tbh idk why this makes me laugh so hardAll DFS threads turn into efficiency flame wars >.>>OP asks "why use DFS?">everyone says "there is no reason">someone says "stop bashing people who use DFS, efficiency troll ass clown">thread is now a flame fest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
