Give Jagex and Runescape a break
A very busy work life has severely limited my Runescape game play time, it has also made me look at Runescape in a totally different light, a chance to think about what is happening to Runescape as an occasional player, all the complaints, the great and not so great updates and people complaining about almost everything new.
Jagex have announced that this will be the year for updating what they already have, as normal there are lots of complaints about it, having looked at the updates so far there is a lot of new content, the improvements to what they already have have all added new content and features to the game.
Their main problem was that over the previous year, removing pking in the wilderness and the various games and content added to compensate we have had a substantial and constant barrage of huge updates for all levels of players free and p2p, we have become so used to a constant stream of new updates that we expect it all the time now, looking back the current updates are on a par with the updates pre pk removal, they have not stopped upgrading RS but returned to a normal level now the RWT problems are under control.
Looking at the Games as a not so regular player has made me think, OK the update wasn't great this week but who cares it is still a great game with tones for me to do, there is enough to do without rushing through an update to keep the masses happy, I don't mind waiting a week or two for an update provided it is an update to add playability or fun not just a rushed ill prepared addition to stop the moaners happy.
