I have been playing on this server since 2017, Now played a bit since leaving for a while.

 

I have feedback, which I think might be relevant;

 

Now, the thing that just jumps out the most is the direction to basically develop this game to be more and more like osrs (example: slayer rework )

I will tell you why this direction is a mistake:

 

- what attracted me to this server was its identity and what it did differently than everyone else; this is how you differentiate your server and attract players

 

- if I wanted to not be able to choose my slayer task, I would just be playing osrs. (applies to various similar tedious mechanics than osrs)

 

- you cannot compete with osrs by offering similar services because of the difference in budget (vs other servers too maybe); for example; we cannot follow the same slayer regimen as osrs because you only have 1 world but also because of a difference in terms of being able to refine every bug: for example, some spawns are bugged (ex: catacomb jellies), some mobs do not behave as intended (ex: metal dragons' with no breath attack = can't afk these), etc...

 

At the end you do what you want, but here is my feedback.

Interesting Points.

 

I think the thing you need to remember that this is Alora, Not OSRS.

 

Alora does not have the same size development team as Old School does, So that does mean there will be a few things that don't work as attended, There is a Bug Report/Suggestion section that you can suggest to be fixed. They do tend to prioritize things that are more important than say the catacomb jellies.

 

For the team we have, They have done an amazing job so far and it can only get better.

 

Just my opinion and everyone is entitled to their own thoughts.

I like what the ICE man above had to say. 

if I wanted to not be able to choose my slayer task, I would just be playing osrs

 

 

You say this as a super donator, you may skip your tasks as you please, aka choosing your task. Sure it resets your streak but this doesn't look like you want to really do so. 

 

Good luck slaying.

Actually some people prefer to play a server that is as similar to osrs as possible except of course the private server quirks such as donator zone, vote shop, loyalty shop etc.. These things i like its basically a rewards system

The "if i wanted to ..... I would be playing osrs" Argument is just not a good one.
