Honest question: does anyone here still play runescape?

I was looking at twitch rankings and noticed RuneScape was the 19th most watched game.
Wtf? I always thought this Game basically died like ten years ago after some unpopular updates. I always viewed it as a game for middle school boys. Guess not.
To each their own, but I don’t get it.

I do. Just got into it recently with the new mobile version.

When Mobile came out, I grinded a little bit. The rise of it is that they came out with an oldschool (2007, lol) platform 7 or so years back. Then about 6-7 months ago they came out with a mobile version and they had a major spike in players

Isn’t it a big indictment of your update decisions when you make an entire game that is based on gameplay BEFORE those updates because demand is so high? Lol

I think some people here do play it. Yeah.
Gotta give Jagex credit. I was just as surprised as you when I realized runescape is still that fricking popular. And this was in 2013. Freakin 2019 and it's still top20 on twitch.

Didn’t realize it has mobile now. May have to try that for old times sake

Yes I hop back in every few months and I love it. I play RS3, not old school. There have been a ton of new updates over the years. Most recently was the mining/smithing rework which is what brought me back to the game last month.
They’re doing a thing with twitch prime starting next week where you can 2 weeks free membership if you have twitch prime (basically amazon prime account linked to twitch).

My old account is long gone but I made a new one when mobile came out as a friend still plays it. Been enjoying it again as they have so much more content than when I played a decade ago

I think I played for 3 or 4 months a couple of years ago. Updated with too many bosses that require a team.
Last time I played, player owned port armor was still some of the best so I spent a few months grinding out the ports stuff that I never did when it first came out.
Did some more slayer. Just too much of a grind. Some of the newer bosses are just ridiculous and not worth the risk. Not at all.
I spent an insane amount of time from 2004 to 2009 playing. I'll never play another MMORPG again. So if I get the bug, I'll still play Runescape to remind me why I shouldn't play Runescape.

Tried playing it last summer for old times sake but the pace of the game is so slow by modern standards I just couldn’t get into it. Almost roped a couple friends into joining me before I threw in the towel.
Used to play the hell out of this game from around 5th grade till 9th grade and I wasn’t even that good
