  • Runescape (osrs/rs2) in my opinion is one of the best games ever made.

    It’s janky, the mechanics are all dated in a pseudo 90s ADND RPG style, the game econony is carefully balanced to accommodate this through RWT and botting. There is a lot to dissuade someone from enjoying it.

    But the quests, coming from a passion project by a small team are some of the best quests I have ever played. Custom mechanics have been written for a lot of them (further adding to jank), the writing shows its pulpy influence and revels in its own absurdity.

    I have yet to play another game where I have helped a pirate union-bust his zombie workers for his rum operation, worked for the fairy mafioso and helped Jean Luc Picard with his hot air balloon in the same day.

    I had to stop playing at points because I was in tears from laughing so hard and without guides some of the quests are genuinely challenging and stimulating.

    Always a brief respite from the modern gaming community to revisit osrs

    I’m happy to work, in fact I’d probably see myself out if I couldn’t keep myself occupied.

    What I want is for the effort and care I put into my work to be reflected back on to me and my life, I have watched businesses make millions of dollars off my work alone and I have been paid minimum wage for that work.

    Bit fucken’ unfair ain’t it mate?
