I have roughly 20k hours in Oldschool RuneScape, and around 5000 in modern RuneScape. This would be a very long discussion if I went into every aspect, but I'll keep it short.

Oldschool RuneScape has a very community focused development process, where what the player says, goes, for the most part. Couple that with the sense of progression and the depth to the mechanics of combat, although at first glance it seems simple, it is one of the most rewarding games you can play. I highly recommend giving it a shot.

While the modern version can still be fun, it is hindered by not being as community driven, having 20+ years of jank built on top of jank, and heavy monetisation (although this is being addressed), just makes the game fall very short of its counterpart for me. While the combat has quite a lot of depth, it doesn't spark that sense of progression or achievement.

    I didn't think it would get better than DOS:2 and then Larian said hold my beer and dropped BG3. $17.99 is a insanely good deal for that game

    We had to put down our beloved baby girl of 10 years this morning after abruptly finding out about an abdominal tumor that burst open and caused internal bleeding past the point of saving.

    Could really use some advice on the grieving process, all I can do is stare at her stuff and feel nothing but despair.
