Polling only lets all the OSRS GP maxed neckbeards continue to deny new content into Runescape. They'll eventually lower the pass threshold or move it to tip. The quantity of new and returning mid-high lvl players they get will easily off-balance the sober bank standing minority they'll lose for a month until they resub again. RS3 is what happens without user polling. The neighborhood choosing what goes in Runescape means the playerbase wanted a thing and Runescape will not be driven into the ground from aqful updates. One for all is the system you are currently proposing. Polling is the opinion of this userbase. It's everyone having a voice.
The first question about often do I play this game, there should be a choice of,"I am currently taking a rest." Sometimes I only get burnt out. Which is fine. My main issue is that I suck at this game. I am 1600 total but I'm not overly efficient or combat focused so I haven't bossed or done master quests. So it didn't give me an option to state I don't understand when it came to those queries. So I put neutral which I presume throws off the integrity of that response. Additionally when you're talking about Jagex I had no clue how to answer those questions. I really don't know anything about Jagex outside the OSRS team which I believe is a relatively small part of your company.
In addition, I wish I knew anything regarding your parent company MacArthur. They are a ghost in the internet. What's more, the only thing I really do know is that Jagex has given up on every game they have ever tried to make outside of RuneScape. What the flying fuck did they do with MechScape/Stellar Dawn. There was no option for simply updating skills or stating I really don't want you to focus on some of those choices in any way. Eventually for the question,"what would you think about customer support?" An option should be,"What customer service?"
Repeatable quests, HD clients, once again trying to push new skills, etc.. Questions regarding how polling content functions in particular is terrifying, provided Jagex's recent penchant for just forcing content which has failed multiple polls via as integrity updates.
Not to mention: Asking for people's favorite games, location of residence, employment status, and even their PHONE NUMBER is extremely inappropriate for this kind of survey. Looks nakedly enjoy an effort for gathering marketing data for sale. Editing this in today that I consider it more: The more I think about the telephone number bit, the slimier it seems to be honest. Most of us know completely damn well that Jagex is not likely to call anyone who answers this survey. Leading people to give their personal information to a poll under the guise of"Wow you're so smart, maybe we'll call you to your opinions on forthcoming stuff!" Is totally disgusting, and if anything else, I did not respond intense enough.
The major answer I gave buy old school rs gold in this survey I want to get across: The final decision on any material ought to be made with BOTH the community AND Jagex working together to produce content that's actually worth adding to Runescape. Players have proven they will vote yes to some pretty absurd shit (See the Tome debacle) where Jagex needs to step in and understand that asking was a mistake, even while Jagex has also proven that when they forge ahead in their own it does not work out well for us. Trying to frame this query since an either/or is leaving a massive quantity of nuance in the issue, and this is something that applies to numerous issues discussed in the survey.
