Is it though? Cause the effect it's having is people who don't play the game thinking they are removing EoC for Reignited servers. Seems intentional on Jagex's part tbf, given how shitty the entire Reignited premise is to begin with.

I really hope it's a meme cause "with MoistCritical"? Runescape Lore deserves so much better and passionate people, more than just a famous youtuber that become famous for giving lukewarm opinions on the internet.

I only noticied now but why tf do they state that they're removing EoC when that is blantantly untrue? Unless they wanna do legacy only servers which ermmm??? Also, funny how all of these things *are already removed from the game* But it's totally not just a marketing scheme to pump sub numbers

One of the things i dislike the most about media now a days is that stuff isn't allowed to be average anymore. Everything has to either be a masterpiece or slop, no inbetween. I'm also guilty of this but just sucks we can't play a game that is just "fine" and enjoy it for that.

Why TF did youtube think this was a good idea? Like yeah it's a slight change but i like my titles clear, why tf is everything slightly sheered to the right???? Like, everything is like this, not even a contrast between title/view count and date.

Reactions are hard work. Imagine then having to also have the energy to message the person that made the video asking for permission to upload their content. It's really hard /s

Ohhh it's gonna be the mid terms in the US? Oh boy, can't wait for "allies" to throw people under the bus supporting candidates who are transphobic and then victim blame people for daring to critisize said transphobic candidates. It's like clockwork.

Raised the same point in my Reignited ramble. Looking at 15,000 people online at any given time and thinking "game is dead" is wild. Steam charts have really warped people's idea of what a successful/popular game is

When it comes to creative fields: More resources doesn't necessarely translate to quality. And there is such a thing as "too many cooks in the kitchen"

If you are going to sell me a cheap copy, i'll just stick to the original, and that's what people have been doing. This is why Reignited had a much harsher reception: We are tired of people who don't play the game having more say than us. Reignited is the breaking point of a long compounding issue.

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
This is why i've been saying since the beginning of the year that i don't like the marketing of this. Everything just reeks of "hey guys, see? It's just like OSRS!" I don't want OSRS, if i did i would be playing that game, which by many accounts, is better than your game.

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
The bricks on the background, the brown aesthetic (iconic for OSRS because brown is a warmer colour even tho OSRS IS MOSTLY GREY), the iconic yellow text on brown background. It's all there, it's just OSRS, but more modern. Where is Runescape in all of this? Why shouldn't i just play OSRS then?
110
SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
I think one of the reasons why the new style just falls so flat for me is that they look like they took the most iconic aspects of the OSRS UI aesthetics, run it throught UE4 and called it a day. It's like seeing a cheap copy, an imitation of something else.

"yes we did build a system that preys on people and their addiction to maximize profits while having complete disregard for the game, but really who's fault is that? You're the one that bought XP after all" Leardership being dumbasses as per usual

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
The weird thing abour Reignited is that it's also being framed by some people as a way to save the game. And that's weird because the game this past year has actually been improving including gaining players. So i ask, save the game from what? Fuck it, i might actually make a video after all.

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
The thing that annoys me the most abour reignted is that it plays into this narrative that RS3 players are all P2W gamer idiots that deserve to be shamed. Outside of that being an anti-sjw dog whistle, it's not true, and ends up victim blaming people for engaging with an explotative system.

I won't be making any videos on Roonfest whiich is weird because from what i've seen, outside of reignted and the AI usage, RS has had quite a lot of exciting reveals. Also i'm going to create the golden goblins, screw the golden gnomes lmao

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Ngl, OSRS did set a very bad precedent for the MMO space: Why create a new exciting MMO when you can just release the one that was already successful to begin with? And then you re-release it again, and again and again. 0 risk, cheap, infinite profit.

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Okay my apologies for trashing the Blender style, at least that one wasn't AI

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
A guy with 9 billion monthly spotify streams won the golden gnome? No one saw that coming! Imagine jagex paying you to something, essentially doing cross promotion and then gaining a community award related to creative efforts regarding the game. Jagex truly is irrecognizable from what they were.

Someone being gay just makes it more likely that they experience and interact with GNC, it doesn't automatically make them understand it just because they are part of the same comunity. Work still needs to be done. That's why cishets can also get it, understanding gender comes with work.
000
SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Sometimes i get annoyed when ppl assume that gay people have some reason to be transphobic, like their sexuality is threatned or something. The reality is that they grew up in a cishet society and learned gender from it. Trans people are the same, which is why some trans ppl are super transphobic.

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
I honestly didn't spend as much time on it as i wish, but it's such a charming game and a lot of the systems it has are quite creative. It's still around being kept alive with ppl still playing. The devs from it went on to create Slime Rancher!

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
the surprise for anyone who hadn't done the quest before. One of my favourite things RuneScape every did was out of nowhere, release Anachronia. Not knowing what to expect, just a piece of new land and 0 info. It made it really memorable. OSRS would've told you everything.
000
SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
you actually get to use it. Even 10 years after the quest, i got such an amazing surprise over it, and it made for such an hype moment. For contrast, in OSRS not only did they mention everything about the torm demons cause of the rewards, they made the stone a major part of the marketing ruining
100
SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
I did While Guthix Sleeps 10 years after it's release. I had 0 clue wtf was going to happen and given that up until that point, you never had any major stakes in the game, that the stone was just some myth that would end up being something less. Imagine my shock when not onyl do you find the stone

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
They should stop asking for feedback on certain content and just release it as a surprise. It's so hard to get hyped about anything when i already know 90% of what the content is going to be/offer.

Crazy that most of these i haven't played in ages, but they are the ones i played tongs growing up. In some cases here i decided to pick only 1 from a franchise to not clog the list. i just picked my fav from each. (Osrs, RaC, Jak, Sly, GT and AoE all fall in this category).

Runescape is so good when it comes to aesthetics of places. I didn't even change anything like skybox or settings, this is vanilla look.

Isn't Speedrunning cool? (while not a vanilla speedrun, these are the ones i enjoy the most from events, just people being good at and having fun with video games)

"jagex devs don't give a shit" yeah, cause the devs are known for being very edgy and were totally not silenced by the company when it came to pride, including having to remove personal testimonies about working on it :)

That's where i'm ending my league. Unfortunally i didn't have as much time to play as i wanted, so i made the decision to go pet hunting isntead of hunting dragon and getting disappointed. League pet hunting is my thing now. We got 24(25 if you count the 2nd KQ version) new pets! From 3 to 28!

The person that developed this quest has an amazing sense of how to turn gameplay into narrative emotion because i never hated Sliske more than before i did this stupid fucking maze.

SiLo @socklove.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
It also doesn't help that it felt very rushed to try and tied to the "see guys, we're going back to our roots!" marketing thing they have going on, which i never liked. I'd rather RS be a unique game standing on it's own than chase some old lost nostalgia.
