Recently swapped over to an old Chromebook to play more click intensive content on the go. Had to swap over to Linux to download the Jagex Launcher, and tried to play on the vanilla client. Oh My God, it’s unplayable The client Jagex themselves offer is so barebones, it feels like I truly got knocked back to 2007. I did not find the experience enjoyable. I know Jagex has been working on their client to better compete with the QOL plugins Runelite offers, but it’s no where close, and customization is a huge big limitation. Without Runelite, this game would have fallen through the cracks years ago. Jagex has raised prices again on the backs of Adam and others who make the game more fluent to play. It’s truly staggering. Needed to rant about this experience, and I subbed over to the Runelite Patreon out of spite. If Adam and others are able to open source plugins for game quality, and they do it during their own unpaid free time… $15 a month is laughable with the offerings Jagex has on their own client. They are completely reliant on RuneLite to boost profit margins without investing into their own standalone variant. Scab type shit submitted by /u/Lamb-Of-Fox
