117 stated that they had offered Jagex their side of the bargain in OSRS gold the form of dropping their software once Jagex had released theirs, and also giving Jagex "collaborative management" over Runelite HD's visual style.
"They rejected the project outright," 117 said. "I am beyond annoyed and dissatisfied with Jagex and am extremely disappointed that, after this lengthy journey it's not possible to present this project to you. 117's mod doesn't seem to be in line with Jagex's guidelines for third-party clients, however the Runescape developer says it is making changes to the guidelines over the next week to include references to projects that affect the visual appearance of the game.
Original Runelite creator Adam1210 shared his thoughts on Reddit, saying that the ability to allow Runelite HD to continue would be beneficial to future updates developed by Jagex.
"I do not agree with including it in the "third group guidelines," Adam1210 said. "Most of them are trying to define where the line is between "quality of life] and cheating is - and I think most players agree that the current guidelines are a fair example of this, and it helps keeps sic the game integrity.
But there isn't an benefit in the least to better graphics and it only affects users when you turn it on. Therefore, this is just a misapplication of guidelines. It's an inconvenience for everyone involved and I'd love it if Jagex could think about it."
Some supporters in those who support the Runelite HD project have taken to the town square of Falador which is the capital city for one of Runescape's most important kingdoms, to stage a sit-in protest similar to the protest World of Warcraft players held in July. In the video, which includes messages of criticism against Jagex for the decision and hashtags like #Free117. Another video shows more players "marching" outside Falador Square.
A time ago, something peculiar began to take place in a video game called Old School RuneScape. It was apparent that there were many new players in the game and they were behaving in pretty much the same way. They were there for hours at a time, performing the same tasks every time. Green dragons were killed, as was harvesting gold, and killing more green dragons as well as collecting gold.
It seemed pretty clear the new players were gamers call "gold farmer." They were winning gold in the game, and later converting that game gold into actual cash by selling it to other players on underground sites. This has been happening for a number of years, and a majority games ban it, but it continues to happen.
The issue was what was the reason for suddenly having so many of these new players entering Old School RuneScape? The answer lies in RuneScape gold one single collapsing economy. Venezuela. A frenzied hyperinflation rate was ruining the local currency. And for thousands of Venezuelans playing video games, gold was now a form of refuge.
