    Old School RuneScape is an MMORPG that has been around since 2013. In this video, we will explore the lifespan of Old School RuneScape and discuss how it has evolved over the years. We will also delve into the world of Old School RuneScape private servers and what they offer to players.
    Private servers are separate servers that allow players to experience the game in different ways. What if Jagex offered them to players for a monthly fee? We'll discuss the different types of private servers available, including those that offer increased experience rates, unique game modes, and new content. We'll also explore the pros and cons of playing on a private server and how it differs from the official game.

    My immediate thought would be using OSRS for D&D servers. Big map, already on a grid system for those who care about combat movement, plenty of monster models, could have one DM in creative mode controlling the stats/actions of everything while having players type out what their character is trying to say or do.

    great vid, I 100% agree & have been daydreaming about Jagex doing this for a while. I think they could also borrow Roblox's model and do revenue sharing of membership with official private server devs/hosts + provide a robust dev toolkit, effectively making a competitive market for the community to build content. "Official Private server RuneScape developer" could be a profitable side hustle or full time job. Obviously we've seen that there are lots of people with coding skills in and around the RS community, I think it would work very well.

    Even just releasing some basic dev tools to players would blow up in such an amazing way, look at how the community ran with blender when they could get ahold of the RS assets, being able to make your own could make the playerbases ideas really flesh out and come to life. I know for sure I'd spend toooons of time in a map editor if they ever released one since its something I have always been super interested in actual sandbox games

  • @jeremytorres9357
    @jeremytorres9357 Рік тому +5

    I feel like Jagex could run a challenge with say 10 unique content creators voted on by the community, each given their own world/server to develop their own concept in a set amount of time. Then release those worlds to the player base and everyone could try out what they think sounds the coolest/most enjoyable/support whichever content creators creation they’re the biggest fan of.
    Sounds like it would be a good way to get their feet wet with the idea, give a bunch of creators and aspiring creators the chance to make new innovative content, and just be a great experience all around

  • @Garfieldcfc
    @Garfieldcfc Рік тому +64

    I think the biggest issue with this is the fact that it would splinter so heavily. Progress in one private server wouldn't carry to another, and so on. This would lead to people picking up and putting down servers largely based on XP rates if they were just trying them out, and would kill a lot of the consistent fun of the game.
    Ultimately I think it would move things more towards a "try a million things but drop them as soon as they get slightly difficult" style of play that I've trended towards with other games, which isn't something I'd encourage.

    • @spatialreverberation9066
      @spatialreverberation9066 Рік тому +3

      I kinda think thats a good thing tho because the best part of the private servers aren't that people play them a long time, but they experience something new that has potential to be added to the main game.

    • @Garfieldcfc
      @Garfieldcfc Рік тому +4

      @@spatialreverberation9066 right, but Runescape is built to be a long-term game, as are most MMOs. If the primary goal is to create features that could go to the main game like a community creator type program, that's fine, but I don't think that would sustain itself money-wise like Idyl was talking about in the video.

    Playing RSPS back in the day and even running one for over 3 years, it was a blast! its brings new life to a world we all know. I've seen a ton of wild things done back in the day and it was a super fun time. I made custom quests and items for mine back in the day and it let me be creative in my own way in a world I loved. but it never did stand up to playing the OG like you said. so I feel like it could do well and make jagex think more outside the box with their new content ideas. heck some people that mod games have been hired by dev teams so it could also be a way to find new talent for the main game too!

    for content, they are really cool. For me as a player, the worst part about private servers was that it ruined the value of what happened in the main game. We went to PS due to EOC changes. I don't think I'd be going to PS when Jagex has finally made the game the most fun (for me) i've had playing it since 2008 in the past year. Working on the current games core issues would be where i'd like them to focus.

  • @Krayfishkarl
    @Krayfishkarl Рік тому +1

    I remember seeing on an official RuneScape questionnaire awhile back a couple questions asking if there was interest in private servers - and if so, what sort of features they should have (i.e. custom quests). That tells me this is something Jagex has been seriously considering for a while so perhaps the results of that questionnaire will give them insight on what people think of it. I think it would be pretty awesome were it to come to pass.

    Jagex could even consider bringing in approved modders to start creating preconfig worlds for free which i bet modders would love and would create an initial low cost moneymaker for jagex and also almost pre vet potential hires for this new team

    God, being able to mod the game without needing to setup a crufty RL plugin really would be fantastic. I just can't imagine Jagex being able to keep up the support for this kinda infrastructure, they already struggle with server instability and that's on their mainline systems.
    I don't think you're asking too much though, Jagex would just need to actually step up and expand their dev/ops/infrastructure teams. I think they'd struggle with that though, from what I've seen on Glassdoor they don't exactly pay great for Cambridge wages at a long standing tech company. That's why they've got such runescape dedicated developers, you'd have to be dedicated in order to take the salary.
    I also feel like Jagex likes having obscurity of their code, no doubt they've got a stack of game breaking bugs and security flaws they're aware of but hope no one discovers. I think that's why they punish people like Rendi so severely.
    I'd give you the title of Private Server Head Lead Senior Project Architect Technical Lead if it were up to me!
