I appreciate your concerns. I think the argument "Why would players want to regrind their things from scratch" is a bold statement. Keep in mind that many EOC-Runescape players ditched their accounts completely to play 07-scape when it came out in 2013. Another example are all the private Runescape servers, why play that at all you're maxed on the main game?

I think this guy explains it a lot better with the Wow-Vanilla server coming back soon.



And yes I see your will to play 2014. I enjoyed that a lot as well. In the start we will probably see it look a lot more like 2014 with the limited weapons to m9k, gangs, limited collection items and so on. I haven't really added anything yet that would make it seem more like 2016 than 2014 now when I think about it.

But people seemed to enjoy 2016 more excluding the hand cannon. There were many dynamic combat situations back then and it was a very enjoyable era for most.


Edit: I think Zarp has become very easy nowadays with the lack of challenges. But it is not welcoming either. It benefits the 1% uber tryhards that spends a lot of money and those who can't compete by investing the hours & money will get rekt. A few years ago if you had a good aim you could outplay these people and it got everyone excited. It's for that reason that a donation system should be available, as it makes things more interesting and creates much needed drama: "Omg I just 1v6'd a super rich gang with expensive collectables with my SVU!!".

[quote="Narexa" post=1111723]I see what you mean and on paper it does sound like a great idea although I didn't enjoy 2016 Zarp as much as I did 2014 it would be great to try that again but I just don't see others seeing it the same way, if people have invested time, money and effort into current Zarp why would they want to do it all over again especially if they have invested real money into it? Everything I'm saying though is purely my opinion on that I think it just wouldn't work as well as some would think, but I could be very wrong also from what I remember Zarp has always been pay to win in some way.[/quote] I appreciate your concerns.
