Although some communities or players are upset over losing a brand name, FatNWackyRS invited other Runescape players to comment on their experiences. One user, for example feels like they've won and lost when playing simultaneously in Runescape as well as Outriders. Many were excited by the announcement with OSRS Accounts, including those who have never had a conversation with Osborne prior to this positive endorsement from one of the Runescape community.

In fact, what exactly happens on the other edge that Outriders fence is yet to be determined, but Fans are aware that lots of positive things are expected to come for the franchise. Outriders' Worldslayer expansion is expected to be revealed in the spring, and is scheduled to launch in the coming year as well as beyond. People Can Fly has a variety of other projects in development process, including a game that will be released together with Square Enix. It is unclear if Osborne is involved in this, however, remains to be determined.

FatNWackyRS concludes his post by leaving a brief and heartfelt message for Osborne should he happen to read it: A heartfelt thank you for all that he's performed in the name of Runescape and warm best wishes for his tenure with Square Enix. "We cherish you, will miss you and would like to wish you the best of success throughout your exciting future ventures together with Square Enix," the Redditor wrote in behalf of the RS community.

RuneScape is among the earliest examples in the MMORPG genre and is regarded in the top ten games available on the market, having first launched in the beginning of January 2001. The browser-based RPG of the past has seen a myriad of variations due to its large player base, with Old School RuneScape giving players with the traditional game experience of 2006 and the comparatively short-lived DarkScape offering players the more PvP-based game. The the developer Jagex has joined forces with the board game developer Steamforged Games to release not only one two tabletop games during 2022.

Steamforged Games' partnership in partnership with Jagex is the latest in a series of collaborations, bringing the most popular gaming franchises to a tabletop. The tabletop gaming giant has also created board games that are based on the games like Monster Hunter World and Dark Souls and recently finished an enormously successful crowdfunding campaign for the Resident Evil 2 board game which raised more than 1 million GBP during the course of the year. Now, the company is aiming at Gielinor's world and RuneScape and plans to release the board game and the core book for tabletop RPGs in the coming year.

The two RPG adaptations will feature a number of the most well-known characters from RuneScape and locations, allowing groups of five or more players to take on the most popular quests from RuneScape as well as bring adventure that take place in Gielinor home. Players will be able create and upgrade equipment, interact with NPCs as well as take on many side missions inspired by the original MMORPG. The board game will be launched by means of an Kickstarter campaign later in the year. Meanwhile, the main tabletop RPG book is scheduled to be available in retail stores.

The tabletop core book RPGs will be notably compatible with the massive tabletop RPG Dungeons and Dragons the fifth edition of the core books, allowing dungeon kings to seamlessly incorporate elements of RuneScape into their games. Jagex President Phil Mansell was optimistic about the project, expressing his excitement with OSRS Power Leveling regarding this Kickstarter campaign "involving people from the RuneScape community," while Steamforged CCO Mat Hart believed the "rich RuneScape universe will be a joy to translate" into a tabletop-based setting.
