Make the server F2P features ONLY

Hello Plural,

I'd like to post a suggestion about making the game free to play, and excluding any member items and features. My reasoning:

You are trying to replicate RuneScape. The source you have is obviously a good one. You have the music system working, all skills functioning, and it seems that all you have left to do is really the quest. But I'm almost positive this game is missing tons of minigames, npcs, all music locations, stuff to do thats specifically for members only. I could be wrong. I don't have the source.

What I think you should do is make it free to play only. And focus on just free to play content and areas. Perfect them. Then, start working on the members only features and cities 1 by 1. At this stage, you can charge for membership, and offer a members world.

Having this remake be capable of members and free to play features makes the game lose credibility in my opinion. When you log in, there are 10 players on average. The 10 players could be scattered all around the world of runescape. You'll never run into anyone. The social aspect of the game has been removed. But if you limit it to f2p only, then we'll grow as a community, work on the free to play economy, and then we can transition into the members features. Right now, the game is too massive for the amount of players.

Just my 2 cents. I hope you'll at least consider my suggestion.

Best,

Sub
