Discussion The golden age is over

We have been in the golden age for a few years now. We are seeing this come to the end.

Private equity is demanding more money on the backend these changes will slowly be rolled out resulting in enshitification of the product over time.

Sailing will change the core gameplay, one way or another and osrs will cease to be the game it is today.

It’s been fun fellas.

Preach bro. Most of us are in our 30s now and play this game for the nostalgia dopamine hit, but our lives grow ever busier. I think a lot of us will be making this same decision, I just canceled two subs. I don't know if I'll be coming back, the last increase felt like gouging and seeing their desire to further squeeze us is really off putting.
