I like turtles.
I wish we could go back to when the game had SOME updates but not all of them.  Like, I would set my personal golden age to the time just before December '07 when they started trying to regulate player trade.

That's literally what oldschool runecape is. its run by Jagex too, and it opens in a few days. You can play it now but you have to buy membership first, but it's going free soon.

Classic ones or new ones? That's pretty cool eother way haha
I've never asked actually, I've never played the game so it never really mattered that much to me ... one of them is pretty senior I think, the other does more web related stuff ... they're good guys though, I play video games and board games with them sometime

I know a bunch of game industry personnel basically through a chance encounter with one guy, and the weird thing is that it had nothing to do with gaming, he turned up to play keyboards at one of our rehearsals back when I used to play in a band

Natch, but there was a time in my naive youth when I enjoyed it.

Wait, really?  Like, I picture "oldschool" as RS Classic, with just the three or four major cities and Rune plate armor being the best protection money could buy.

They took what the game was in 2007 and rereleased it. They started including updates along with it that have since changed the game in different ways. It's still primarily the same as what it was back then as far as graphics, and gameplay, just with some new content not in the present-day main version. If you liked the game back then, you'll probably enjoy the Oldschool servers, at least for awhile.

Yeah, people call it 07scape because it's Runescape before the GE and wilderness removal.

http://oldschool.runescape.com/

that webpage should give you a bit of nostalgia blast too.

Also they added an "ironman" mode, totally optional, but if enabled you can't trade anything with other players, so if you want a full set of rune you have to go out, get your mining high enough to mine rune, mine some, get your smithing high enough to smelt it, smelt it, and then you can wear it. Shits crazy. (there's also a hardcore and ironman hardcore mode where if you die in the game your character is dead forever)

Pfft... mid level combat on a members account will net you full rune easily enough. No smithing required. At least that's how I was planning on getting it on my ironman. That was before I said fuck it though lol.

Hm... I dunno about the "before GE" thing, I did kind of like that, even if it was blatantly setting up to remove regular trading.

I wish I could say the same, but I was extremely hooked on this game back in middle school... Took me a few years to realize just how poorly designed the game was.
I like turtles.
It's just about the closest thing to objectively bad I've seen in video games.  But I'm still going to check it out when it hits F2P.  Dug out my old account and everything.

They added a tradin post thing to 07 so it's still easier to trade at least.

And honestly questing in runescape is the best of any MMO. Hell it beats out single player games too honestly. Some were so fucking hard without a walk through though, but that made them fun.
More like retarded. If you honestly had fun with shit like the chemistry puzzle in Recruitment Drive you need to sit down and think about your definition of fun.

yeah if you don't agree with me you're wrong
There's a fine line between a weird opinion and bad judgment.

not when you're talking about taste in video games ...
