The reason why I lost interest in RuneScape is because the game was going from a sort of of socialist economy, where you work and get paid for your work, into a more capitalist one where you spend a bunch of up-front money to make passive income. Eventually the amount of passive income you get just dwarfs playing the actual game and it's like "why bother?" All you do is log in, collect your Kingdom, then collect your Ships, Load up your machines, harvest your animals, do your daily and that's it. No gameplay. The most fun I had playing the game was actually earning progress in the game rather than having it handed to me, not roleplaying as a fucking landlord. It's kind of insidious how the game slowly turned into a lord simulator. I'm thinking of all the features which basically boil down to "You're the boss, make these people do work for you and you'll get free money/xp while you're away." How long until the MC becomes a slave owner?

      Yeah probably, though I was having fun which is why I played along. Usually trolls don't put in the effort to actually be entertaining, so you have to enjoy it when it happens.

          Years of dealing with shitty trolls on :reddit-logo: has warped my prospective.

              Yesterday there was this guy on Serious Conversation being "asa autistic person I hate autistic people" after a quick diologue tree showed he was a troll, I left this message for him.

              You post "asa" bullshit then have the gall to get offended that I called it out? You might get upvotes on here posting your genocidal garbage, but know that there's a growing community of people who see right through it, and are starting to get really sick of putting up with it. You're just a useless troll with zero stake in the matter and I promise you that you will die having never felt fulfillment in your entire existence. I'm not saying that to warn you or save you. I want you to feel the hopelessness of knowing every day that no matter what you do, that's your fate. You can't avoid it. There's no getting off. The best you can hope for is to feel nothing. God's light will never touch you. Goodbye.

              His response was "fuck you."
