Another thing i wanna call out here.

I would be shocked if Jagex decides to "nerf" the coming TH promos to make the rares/animation/Overrides etc to be easier obtainable due to no keys from daily missions. Cuz if not - it would result in even more Bonds needed to be bought by players to not miss out on good-looking outfits/animation from TH.

Never have i seen such a united youtube comment section. I really do hope they listen, and good on you for such unwavering integrity Protoxx

I don't usually follow the update news. First time I heard of the battle pass is from your previous video and I didn't bother to check farther. I'm playing casually, sometimes play for just 30 minutes a day and sometimes 3-5 hours a day in multiple sessions. I also don't always have the time. The previous daily missions were convenient as it helped me catch up and actually progress for the day when I couldn't sit for long. This time I had to sit for more than an hour to complete a single daily, which is arguably fair. I spent more time getting the resources to complete my daily, but it's still within the realms of "fair" and it does encourage a more active gameplay. Something still felt odd about it, couldn't quite put my finger on it at the moment. I started to notice how unapologetic the monetization is when one of the challenges was to check out the level 120 reward and the shop. The obvious answer to "why this is a challenge?" is for you to be aware of the shop's existence. But check out the beauty of the scam: 1. first step is to scroll all the way to the end of the rewards list ("check out all of these rewards") 2. 120 is the last reward, the same as a skill and anyone knows it takes a lot of time to reach level 120 ("It takes a long time to complete this challenge"). 3. You now scrolled through a lot of attractive rewards. Next step of the challenge is going to the shop with the most attractive item there costs 5000 points. ("Here is where you can buy stuff, and the one you want is expensive"). 4. "You can skip the grind if you pay". They literally walked you through a tutorial on how to P2W if you haven't notice already. And the reward is just too short of gaining anything special. Now we add everything you said in the video and by this point in gameplay we get a feel on just how long it will take to complete the track. The pain is kicking in. I also want to remind you that one of the challenges is completing rituals, an activity which takes around a minute to complete just 1. Another challenge is completing 50 obstacle laps which also takes time for just 1. Some of us barely got the time for a single daily now and we suppose to add two of the most time consuming skills on top of that? Thank god Farming isn't there as well... Lets talk about the beauty of the buffs for a moment. They placed them very early on. So early I was rewarded these buffs the moment I logged in. If the gap between paying users and free users wasn't high before, this time the gap is higher. For merely having a membership you level up faster than free users. Bonus xp solidify this claim farther, but at least you had to apply it first and it only works for skills for your choice, you can also ran out of it. Without bonus xp we level up just as fast as free users, something that isn't true now. The craftsmanship doesn't end there. Remember how there are 120 levels of rewards? Just like skills? Yup, you guessed it: Jagex literally added a P2W skill.

"While the battle pass doesn't take too long to complete, it does if you start missing missions" Ah, they reduced dailyscape by increasing the fomo of dailyscape even more

You mention so many good points. I hope it gets changed. For me the interface is too confusing. Its overwhelming. And like you mentioned- I am someone who doesn’t have a job where I can afk rs and in all honesty the missions are not something I really want to be doing with the little time I will have during a normal working week. For e.g my current mission is hunt 500 scarabs. Ok great you are trying to get players to engage with content but why would I want to do that? How much time would that take? All for some cosmetic? No thank you. At the same time, I don’t find the rewards good enough to buy skips. I think the yak track was actually better than this

...wait, did they end the weekly challenges early? I thought we still had 1 or 2 days left. I didnt rush extend them because the interface still said i had the full week

This is the FIRST game that makes me constantly FOMO, burned out and angry with every updates. It is unbelievable i tell you.

this level of greed is INSANE lmao

Jamflex trying to make moparscape.

It used up all my challenge skips and Yak Track skips that I had been saving. I leveled up to 45 when I logged in. I took a screen cap if anyone doubts this, but it made me sad. I'd been saving those up for years, and they were just converted without me agreeing to it. At the very least, it would have been nice if they had let us keep those and use for the levels post 99 ***OR*** for a season where we didn't have as much time. This would have allowed a catch up mechanic that we had been saving up for instead of just using them without the players consenting.

if anything, this update just proves that Jagex doesn't respect our time as players.

Generally didn’t care about yak track at all but this kinda got on my nerves.

Also if you do chaos ward and die. It consumes the charge and you use one every time you go in the dungeon

thank god you made this. hope they listen!

I’ll say it again: The reason this is being called “a major CONTENT update that will change the CORE playing experience” is because their plan is to powercreep those buffs over time to the point that it really does affect the core gameplay experience. Mark my words, by this time next year, there will be a boss release that you can ONLY access by paying for it or some other buff that, currently, sounds absolutely ridiculous to us. It’s coming.

The biggest thing I like about Apex Legends battle pass system is the challenges never disappear, You get a new set each week and sometimes in different weeks there will be two of the same so even if its forcing you to play the game in a way you don't enjoy you can earn double progress

I liked a lot of the video, you bring up a lot of good points. I do think though that someone needs to dig into how long it will actually take if you take into account the time spent doing the missions because you double dip in a lot of areas. Time spent doing the daily mission (skill n kill) also counts towards the weekly, which also counts directly for the track. Also, the one point I disagree with is removing the expiration of daily missions. They are exactly that, daily missions, but maybe reduce the rewards? The whole idea of daily missions (in any game) is to get people to log in daily. We have weekly missions (with bigger rewards) for the people who can't or don't want to log in daily. Final point, I agree some of the buffs are very strong, and some seem useless. The buff area needs to be looked at much more closely for better balancing.

I'm substantially less likely to buy keys if they're getting rid of the daily challenges with 3 extra keys.

Sucks they are so greedy. Id like to get some of those cosmetics but there is no way im grinding that hard for something I already bought.

One thing I really hate is "premier" membership. I get they need to make money but it feels misleading to have the good pass rewards locked behind a very specific membership type when I'm sure many people with regular membership were somewhat looking forward to the rewards that they cannot receive now.

they can, if they use 3 bonds 😂

they already removed the buffs? I dont see the buff tab anymore or just me?

I have debating starting OSRS, so I could try sailing when it is released. I think today is the day to start. I am premier, so the hero pass does help me, but I do not like this direction.

Or you could pick up a different game that has modern graphics, better monetization methods and developers who actually care.

@GermanZindro I play other games, and I will be going back to FF14 soon-ish. I like RS for AFK.

@MoreCreativeThanSpielberg OSRS has not been the same for a while. I don't understand why you are crying about a new skill. The style of game play is what's important

this might surprise you but OSRS is run by the same company. If you havent started OSRS yet I'd recommend playing another mmo/game instead tbh. Once RS3 is dead they will start sucking OSRS peoples money with crap like this.

Thanks for the excellent info, but this is just depressing. I've been playing for over 15 years now, and I've never felt more unwanted by Jagex. I don't no life and I'm not a whale, so I don't matter. :(

Not even telling us to relax but going right at it. Appropriate

Thank you for making this video. i also noticed how my maxed main had to do the daily challenges for apmost 1 hour yo finish all 3 while my noob ironman was 20 minutes to finish it... Im just going to stop playing. Ima finish my obligations to my clan, with events and stuff and let my account fester. Screw this. I played forever since i was a kid and i can let it go. I don't have cost sunk fallicy. I always knew a day would come where i leave. Where i leave all my 10 accounts to be free in the pastures ❤

This update is terrible, both literally and for the game. We must continue to make our voices heard or begin cancelling our membership until this is resolved!

I quit in March after 6 years (I did play one month leading to necro release but on a brand new acc and I stopped like 2nd day after necro release) and this is exactly what I feared would come when first yak track released. When Jagex (and lovely investors) treats RS3 like a piggy bank that gets filled by players there is no reason to play anymore.

I just want my dang conjure overrides

Completely agree with your assessment. This update has severely disrupted ironman xp gain through dailies. Not happy with Jagex.

they have really screwed over ironmen . No more challenges and we dont get the buffs (not the xp ones) :(

Jagex ita s turning our loved rs3 into fornite

Note about Marks of War; It appears to grant Marks of War per Kill / 5 = Hero Points (so Hermod is 12 HP per kill, AG 1 mechanic is 5 HP per kill), up to a total of 200. I noticed that even though I'm gaining xp killing a boss, if you're not gaining MOW anymore, then you get 0 HPs. You'll likely need to do something quick like Kerapac to max out, then go do skilling/killing elsewhere. It'll likely be less than 440 unless you're doing some skilling while bossing (e.g., dissing something). So doing AG 1 mechanic is only worth doing, if you can diss something once per minute.

I think they meant with 'dailyscape' specific things you need to do daily (like vis wax), nog just playing every day

remember folks if you dont feel like you HAVE to buy the premium pass then your not the target audience! Given how colour by numbers the whole thing is that means its using all the psychologically manipulative tricks that target neurodivergent players directly to get them to spend money they dont have (A great exmaple of this is how every single time you unlock something on the pass it sticks a number 1 on the button to try and convince you to go look at it, increasing your chances of buying the premium pass. As a neurodivergent player myself that notification causes my physical pain to ignore lol). Even if you dont personally think this effects you I can guarantee at least one person on your friends list or your clan will be exploited into buying this garbage so you should be against this in solidarity with your fellow players. This is BY FAR the most disgusting thing jagex has ever pulled

Premier members indirectly paid for it. So they have to do it.

Uncommon Jagex 2023 L

If you complete the Zamorakian Undercity with Chaos Ward active then the kill should not go to kill count (even initial dungeon runs to allow a player to skip dungeon to skip to boss instance) or even reflect kill times on leader boards.

This is for sure EOC 2.0, mass exodus of players if they don't make it 5-10x faster to max out. The absolute spit in the face. "You don't like training a skill? You use daily challenges to slowly progress? Too bad, that's gone. Give us your credit card if you wanna get the 15% XP boost." There is absolutely no point in trying to complete the pass by playing, you'll end up finishing 85 days in and get the maxed benefits for 5 days before they hit you with the next pass and you've gotta start over. This smells like predatory mobile games, where you either give $200 or spend 1000 hours to complete it...in fact, that's kind of accurate, not even a euphemism at this point. Jagex, if you're reading this: value people's time. We are people, we are not slaves to you or the game. You push people hard enough and they will never come back.

This is Jagex's way to 'retain' players to keep the player count high and long each day. I bet Jagex is trying to sell the company so they're creating data to show potential buyers that there are 'active' players each day.

best joke I heard in a while "remove hero pass"

We need more content creators to call jagex out on their shit. Good shit proto.

The Hero Pass is making RuneScape remind me of all the reasons I stopped playing WoW. I'm a busy person, I get a guaranteed 20 minutes of gameplay in the morning before work and then if I'm lucky, I might be able to play for 30 minutes after work. It's maybe only once a week or two I'll get the time to play for more than an hour

Ugh.. “pay to get major buffs” makes me want to play something else. Losing faith
