Updates/Game Development thought


shallow

Recommended Posts

Had a shower thought about how Jagex has recently been trying to make certain players happy with how they change the game. 

I think there are at least two ways (maybe more feel free to add to it) that Jagex could go about their weekly updates. First being that they listen to the player base through in-game polls, discord, reddit, and twitter (these are what they currently use for feedback i believe). Alternatively, they could create their vision, sort of how when nobody played runescape enough to have an opinion on what they should add to the game and they just created what they believed would be a good game.

 

I think both are valid ways to go about updating the game but it's interesting to think about, I wonder if Jagex just went completely silent and made any changes they think are necessary if the game would come out better or worse. 

 

The way I explain these two ideas are "If you build it, they will come" VS "The customer is always right" which are obviously not always true, if you build a hut out of sticks, maybe nobody will visit your hut, and if the customer wants you to give them a million dollars, you probably won't. But if both are resulting in positive change then I'm not sure which one ends up being better. So yeah this is my shower thought of the day, I'll be playing for the rest of my life no matter what changes are made haha

They used to not give a shit and did what they wanted. That was when the game was good until they didn't give a shit and removed wildy and free trade. They need to not give in to whiners but listen when it comes to massive updates like wildy, free trade, EOC, 07 scape, weapon diversity? Stuff like that.

i feel as jagex has had a change of heart over the years, they are more player focused, some updates i still dont agree with but at the end of the day its the players that bring up the idea in the first place.
