It’s really great to see games that would otherwise die live on through a community. Ultima online is a great example with the likes of ClassicUO (amazing client) and ModernUO (an active attempt at a modernised server)
Amazing that there are so many people active still, if that's accurate. RuneScape feels like a half forgotten childhood memory to me at this point.
I chose Habbo. Still exists but isn't the same.
Personally i think the biggest strength of the game and its development methodology is also its biggest flaw - Community voting and preapproval for updates.
So many updates have failed to make it to the game because the fan base are exactly what you'd expect from reddit/discord/mmo playing nerds. Incredible difficult to please.
Apparently the kosher way around this is installing RuneLite and the Jagex launcher in Lutris or Wine, but I just gave up.
