I think if you're already asking that question, that warrants you talking to your doctor

Super Mario Sunshine is surprisingly more realistic than later Mario games in one specific aspect: here, Mario will start drowning if he hangs on to a ledge in such a way that water is flowing into his nose and mouth, as one would in real life.

Observe Mario holding on to a ledge that water is flowing over in Super Mario Galaxy (left) and Super Mario Odyssey (right). If realistic physics applied, he should start drowning since his nostrils and mouth are covered by water flowing into them.
However, in these games the air depletion/drowning state is tied to the swimming animation. As long as Mario is not visibly swimming, he cannot be drowning even if he is covered by water.
In Super Mario Sunshine, however, air depletion is decoupled from swimming as an action, allowing Mario to realistically start drowning in this situation (note him flashing red and his air meter depleting).
However, he is saved by Sunshine's (also unique among 3D Mario platformers) ledge tiredness mechanic. After hanging on for 20 seconds, Mario will let go. This is also realistic, since why would he let himself drown?

Oda has helped Mod North slide the RuneScape community ever closer to a "boys locker room" type chud fraternity. The behaviour during the Golden Gnomes this year reminded me of precisely that. To say it was distasteful to me was a massive understatement.

The Jagex team have undisputedly talented artists 🎨 on the books. We have the whole freaking EXCELLENT 🤩 @rsartcommunity.bsky.social. And they dare use this AI 🤖 slop? It's so disrespectful to a community 🫂 they keep claiming to want to work with. This is on Mod North. Again.

what has Odablock done for osrs? like actually? he's made the community marginally larger, and significantly less tolerant.

I don't think so, at least not that I remember :3c

I'll need to gear first LOL I have like 0 gear on main

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Yee! I think it'll be fun. The trailer they made for it at least made it sound like it's going to be a hell of a quest

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I forget that Albion is a game that came out in 2017. For some reason, I always think it's older than what it is. So I guess, yeah, Albion is probably the last successful MMO that I can think of.

010

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

As far as I know, Black Desert Online was the last successful MMORPG (not counting like expansions for already living ones). BDO came out in 2015. There have been loads of MMOs during that time. Where are they lol? AION 2 just came out, we'll see how long it lasts

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Idk man. I have thoughts. But maybe I'm just wrong about all of this LOL. We'll see what happens. Maybe all this new OS content will be PEAK, and maybe Rs4 will be a 10/10 MMO without killing Rs3. Idk. Hugs and kisses tho. 😘

020

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Which, making a new MMO in this day and age is already putting one foot into the grave. Let's be real, and I'm taking this from Ingus: what was the last successful MMO? Black Desert? Maybe? 11 years without a new successful MMO, not for lack of trying?

210

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Then we have Runescape 4??? After you talked so much about trying to restore Runescape 3???? You announce a brand-new MMO??? Can we please fix the main game first and THEN talk about making a new MMO?

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I think new quests are important. But we're getting what looks like 8 new quests? Maybe more. Plus, their content cadence is going to be monthly??? Brother, slow down.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

This Runefest felt very corpo. Like Jagex bigwigs said, "We need to impress our investors. Let's make ALL THE CONTENT. Idc what it is, but make it happen" So here are 55 new bosses, 55 new quests, 55 new dungeons, 55 new bis items

140

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

PvP Tutorial, love it, send it HC Worlds, love it Quest Month, I love quests but feels a bit much Community Bingo is kinda w/e Diving Expansion, idk anything about ??? has a book icon so idk clog stuff? Summer Sweep, cool ??? has a ripped Wanted poster so idk Winter Roadmap, cool.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Tower of Xophoros looks to be something that will give us a bis mage cape. Which I feel like is not needed, but idk. Maybe we do need something to compete with Inferno and Quiver.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Fairytale Part 3 is kind of whatever. Didn't expect it. I think it's fine that we get a finale, though. Good to finally wrap that up.

210

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Smithing and Mining rework I did not expect. Being able to craft rune at 40 does not make sense for Old School. What are you going to do from 50+? Don't bring Rs3 armour into this game. Bane does not fit this world LOL

140

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Menaphos. I don't really like the desert, but I can't deny that it will be really cool to finally open the golden gates. No thoughts other than that.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Dungeons of Gielinor: I feel like I don't know enough to form an opinion on it. But it sounds cool. New dungeons is cool. love a new quest, and new bosses I guess is fine.

130

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Chosen Command, a new Master tier quest, and the conclusion of Zanik's story. I think that's very exciting. Love that they're going to revisit Dorgesh-Kaan. And of course, W new skilling content.

120

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Fractured Archive. I think this raid is going to be REALLY good. It looks very well designed. I'm excited to try it. At some point, we need to stop making bis items tho lol. When is the last raid? We're going to reach a point where we just can't keep earning more power.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Unified Clog is sick. Clan Finder is sick. Grouping rework is NEEDED Quest Timeline Rework sounds very interesting Idk what Ninja Team is lol...

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Temple of Ah Zah Rhoon. I did NOT expect a Raid announcement! Wild. I think this is going to be REALLY good, and if they learned anything from OS, this is going to be a ripper of a raid, I bet. Very excited for it.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Curse of Arposandra is going to be crazy, I think. Love a Grandmaster quest!

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Argento sounds promising. We love a Community Skilling Boss (Wintertodt -cough-), and I'm interested in seeing the new training methods they mentioned.

120

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

City of Gnomes I was hoping we'd get a Gnome Quest in OSRS but we take this. I was very surprised to hear it's the Gnome finale so very excited to see Glouphrie get socked in the face.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Grandmaster Clue Scrolls are going to be cool. I don't do clues in RS3, but with plugins I probably will. I'm very excited for the agility rework. Looking forward to seeing what they do AND seeing the revamped courses; very big W imo

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Hoard of Dragons is SO fucking sick! I've been wanting to see a DS2 come to RS3 for a while now. I've noticed that RS3 is getting a lot of new areas, and that's really cool. The dragon in the art is fucking SICK, and the trailer for it was actual cinema.

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Adventure Guide is a really nice feature. Especially for new players, and how BIG Rs3 is? Yeah, sign me up. Remastered Journey is just a W, imo Plugins? I've been waiting SO long for them, and I'm so excited they're coming. Can't wait to jump back into Rs3 :)

110

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Reignited looks fine. I think it's a great way to draw in new players, and I'm excited to check it out. I think most veteran players are freaking out for nothing. No one is going to make you play these servers.

120

Trader Stan @thetraderstan.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Alright, this is the last post about it then I'm moving on. Runefest reveal thread as someone who only really plays Osrs LOL Starting off with RS3:
