I made the transition to OSRS bout 6 months ago
Description
We had a similar notion pitched by Mod Ryan one gamejam, in weeks Mod Osborne determined there wasn't enough interest and the idea was dropped from all of Jagex consciousness. In RS3, there is more interest in skilling upgrades that bring quicker progress from OSRS gold the cost of gp, that's why they rather added Aquarium. They are adding a slower way to train structure for the advantage of paying less gp. We are obviously playing the wrong game.
I really don't think the same can be said for much of the community. People today hate the notion of clawing back EXP prices on RS3 - even though a large part of the achievement of many OSRS upgrades is they have reduced EXP rates which lead content to be purposeful more often. It's very much a can not -have-your-cake-and-eat-it-too situation. A number of those flopped day-1-it's-deceased content ideas from RS3 would do excellent on OSRS, and a lot of the celebrated holy-shit-this-is-amazing content ideas out of OSRS would be considered garbage in RS3. This is in large part due to the fact that OSRS is slow progression, and RS3 is fast progression.
It'd be programming hell, but I've been thinking more and Jagex eventually has to switch to 64 bit integers. There's only so much content it's possible to pack into 120 levels. Raising the cap would roughly double the amount of possible levels in a skill. RS3 would have fast progression, however, the final goal would be a lot further away. Adding even more levels would not work out nicely.
There's tons of games which do dev interaction greater than rs3 and loads which do worse. I believe by always looking at osrs men and women kinda have tunnel vision on a game that really does it better and it'll appear that everything in osrs is just better. Criticism where criticism is due, but by just looking at 1 game that has devs doing community desired content as a core characteristic (polls) you run the risk of RuneScape 2007 gold just constantly looking at the bud on the other side and it is going to look a good deal greener. You don't feel that the problems of osrs if you are only taking a look at the updates page.
