Natural side effect of games becoming more like jobs
Holy shit, that's a based take and I've realized so many games have the fun sucked out of them because of that.
Take Old School RuneScape and then also Pizza Tower, both are radically different games but the former is so efficiency-focused that you can go for hours if not days grinding just to have a couple of hours of fun doing one quest. Pizza Tower has one tutorial level and then you're well on your way, the latter's just a fun game with no serious plot.
Old School RuneScape is probably best as a nostalgic cozy game.
ill be honest i hate all the new additions to OSRS since OSRS came out. i dont mind restoring content that existed between 2007-2012 that is seemingly lost or before runescape 3 was a thing but the obsession with endgame dungeons/bosses and items as if OSRS is WoW or FF14, annoying combat/tick mechanics that are literally bugs but the game is sometimes designed around them?? like theyve added so much optimization content to the game, when the original runescape 2 didnt have that lol. so what if firemaking has "no use"? it was fun to level up! thats why i played it!!
