The mod creator says they’ve dedicated 2,000 hours over the last two years to make Runelite HD but was only recently messaged by Jagex.

Runescape developer Jagex has put an end to Runelite HD, a fan-made HD mod of the popular open-source client for Old School Runescape, just as the project was about to launch last Monday. The 11th-hour move has some Runescape fans decrying Jagex’s decision and saying they’ll move to other MMOs.

    Not necessarily. In game protests reach the actual customers who might in turn also reconsider their subscription. A in person protest in front of the developer’s office will not even be noticed by most of the players and thus in turn will do little to change the mind of the developers.

      Makes sense. But I bet if you (not you personally) could storm their office like the Capitol building, a lot of people would notice lmao.
