rsgoldaz sale:How Long Will Runescape Goldswapping Last?
As we approach 2016, I can't help but wonder how long this thing we call "swapping" will continue to exist. Of course, I hope that it'll persist for years to come. Otherwise, I'm not sure what we'd do with this site :P. But looking at the facts, let's try to make an educated guess. What sort of things could happen to put an end to the world of goldswapping?Frankly, not very much. RS gold Goldswapping is based on some pretty fundamental features of Runescape, so I don't see it going anywhere. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if swapping remained viable and popular until the very day that Runescape shut down. Let me explain why. Firstly, swapping isn't really a thing "in" the game, like staking or merchanting and so forth. It isn't a feature or a minigame, and it also isn't the intentional result of an update. Swapping wasn't ever "introduced", but instead it emerged into being, as something that the players created. Those features end up being what make swapping strong. Also, goldswapping is comprised of very simple and unchangeable parts. All that needs to happen is for there to be 2 or more versions of Runescape, and for there to be free trade between those games. Obviously, Jagex will never again make the mistake of removing free trade. Also, both RS3 and OSRS are very popular and show no signs of dying any time soon. If both of those games continue to exist, people will always want to be able to transfer their wealth between games. I simply can't see that changing unless the plug is pulled on Runescape as a whole. That, as well, isn't likely in the foreseeable future. Runescape brings in significant amounts of revenue for Jagex, and would be quite cheap to maintain if all updates were stopped eventually. Since hosting costs scale with playerbase, a declining playerbase will also mean lower costs to keep the game online.
All the little features and experiences in Runescape aren't really known for their longevity. Combat, the economy, skilling, pking, and everything else has been fundamentally changed over the years, in some cases repeatedly. I remember being there the moment free trade came back in 2011. Everyone was so excited about how it would change the game forever. Who could have known that EOC would be released a year and a half later, and OSRS about 8 months after that. This just goes to show how fast the Runescape experience tends to get turned upside down. Swapping, however, seems to be one of the only things that should last basically to the very end. It rests on very secure, unchangeable principles, and in fact it's been strengthened even more by the introduction of new game modes such as Darkscape and Deadman Mode.
This is good news for us here at rsgoldaz,Buy RuneScape gold of course. But in a larger sense, some stability is nice at times. I know people like change, don't get me wrong. It's good to keep things fresh. But also, in a game like Runescape that can often require months of work to reach a goal, it's a bit discouraging when all your work is invalidated by a sudden and unexpected update. People experienced this in 2007 when Jagex took away the wilderness and free trade, and people experienced this in 2012 when Jagex introduced the Evolution of Combat. All I'm saying is, it's nice to have something to hold on to.
