I have been playing RuneScape since the classic days and throughout the years I played all the version that was brought to us.
In some recent updates we’ve received, I felt the game was becoming progressively easier over time, the feeling of accomplishment to achieve high levels was not satisfying as it once was.
I remember how the community was much closer and no one was all about being that sweaty and toxic with other members of the game, it was all about logging in and to continue that magical adventure with your friends.
With all that, I have decided to join myself to the world of private servers, for another experience… A new feeling ! A new challenge ! I have encountered many private servers over the years, I was moderator in few of them and enjoyed it.
I was very curious to see if I was able to find a private server with some 2004 content… I laid my eyes on lost city and quickly clicked the link to see if it would light up that fire inside of me, that feeling of seeing something exciting as a child… may I say once the page loaded, I felt the feeling of nostalgia kick in big time. my inner child spirit was all fired up looking forward to log in and start that adventure.
Anyway, I have a few goals that I would like to achieve, and it is to simply enjoy, play,make friends and repeat.
My primary goal is to balance time spent playing versus time spent helping with writing content for the server. I got here pretty late and almost all the 2004 content is written already, so I feel an urgency to contribute as much as I can for the next revision.
We probably have some time before that happens though, so as far as the game itself is concerned, I want to go hard into a specialization (thinking runecrafting) for very early game so that I can meaningfully participate in the market, make money, stock resources etc.
From there, Dragon Slayer is probably the endgame goal for the f2p period but I’m going to take it nice and slow getting there!
Beautiful goals you have there ! Rune crafting is the way to go… we have similar goals there. Just that I’ll be focusing on mining/smithing so I can help others.
Hopefully we can help each other in the market and for future content ahead of us.
I’ve got similar goals to @branon do some playing and development too. I really value the authenticity of this server. Most other servers have some inauthentic QoL modifications.
As far as goals go I’ll probably get distracted and make pies while trying to quest!
