The biggest year for Runescape in 2021 was a sign that it continues compete with other prominent which have been released in the last few years. The month of February saw the much-anticipated worldwide launch of Lost Ark, a popular game with OSRS Accounts that was previously only available only to South Korea since its launch in the year 2018. and Amazon has launched its entry into the MMORPG genre the month of September, with New World. Jagex as well as Runescape are well-versed with the flow and ebb of and have been around for more than two decades, and the creator could hope to have similar successes with ELDERGATE.
Runescape as well as Outriders aren't the only two games that people imagine playing in tandem so the sight of the Runescape player addressing r/Outriders could be a shock. However, it resulted in a positive post and discussion among people who play both games. It all boils down to one Former Jagex staffer: David Osborne, otherwise popularly known within the Runescape community as Mod Osborne.
Osborne recently announced on LinkedIn that he's resigning from Jagex after 15 years of editing content along with narrative design, as well as lead design. The decision was made according to his own words, to "test his experience with the rest of his sector." Osborne is leaving Jagex and will join Square Enix on the publishing side as an Senior Designer. He'll oversee "some incredible games" starting with Outriders.
The news prompted Redditor FatNWackyRS to contact the Outriders on r/Outriders, with a short message on Mod Osborne and his role as the "warm friendly "Dad" face of Jagex." FatNWackyRS describes all the things Mod Osborne has done for the community throughout his career, including a few videos, including performing as Mod Elfborne in order to promote Prifddinas (an Elf City in Runescape) as well as taking part in livestreams and working with the company's mission.
Hello outriders! I'm from the r/runescape channel. You might not be aware yet, but you're getting an awesome team member. From outriders
Although some communities or players are upset over losing a brand name, FatNWackyRS invited other Runescape players to comment on their experiences with Cheap OSRS Fire Cape. One user, for example feels like they've won and lost when playing simultaneously in Runescape as well as Outriders. Many were excited by the announcement, including those who have never had a conversation with Osborne prior to this positive endorsement from one of the Runescape community.
