Rs3 is the sequel and osrs is just for nostalgia. Afaik osrs has a bigger playerbase than rs3.

Pretty much. I haven't played in years, but I heard that OSRS got some updates that were specifically tailored for that version and never happened in RS3.

i've heard this too. are they gonna fix RS3 to compensate? ideally its the version i start playing again but they gotta roll back all the bad updates. like all the stupid microtransactions that makes it feel like a Facebook game

That's...not happening.
OSRS is infinitely more fun anyways.

I only play Rs3
i wouldn't be surprised if it gets closed down in the next few years given the present state of the game

so if you want to play OSRS you should go for it

what would you guys say are the worst parts of RS3 that separate it from OSRS? I'm pretty removed from both, I stopped playing around 2007 i think.

Evolution of Combat makes it feel simultaneously like a generic MMO-esque combat while not being interesting enough. The graphics update also as well just ruined a lot of the charm that OSRS/RS2 have/had. A lot of the new skills are bland/uninteresting(Invention/Disassembling), and it's...just not fun, really.

OSRS isn't pay2win like RS3 and has quadruple the playerbase.

Invention is one of the few good things RS3 has done since EoC

Divination is shitty and uninteresting

where do you see RS going then? will RS3 be shut down in favor of OSRS, and OSRS will evolve into RS4?

i feel like i'm generally fine with all the graphics updates, even though the old simple artistic style does have a lot of nostalgic charm

No. Rs3 still brings in more income because of p2w microtransactions. Both games will continue to exist as they are now.

i wish they'd call OSRS something else so i didn't feel like i'm playing some obsolete game that'll stop getting support soon
