Hello! I'm returning after almost a decade, and I'm really sad to see that they went away with the old sprite art as it was one of the big draws for me back in the day. Is there any way to play with them? I will admit I am not too fond of the new graphics, and if this is a sort of how Runescape Classic upgrading to Runescape 2 was, then that's sad to hear.
Thank you for your input, I really hope to see you in game!

Is there a way to play with the old graphics?

I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness.
Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.

Re: Is there a way to play with the old graphics?
After some snooping around last night, I found that as one of the perks of verifying your account in the shoppe. What I didn't find however, was any sort of player counts. Are those public, or do I need to be in game to see?xAlexx wrote:The only to play with the old graphics is to play Legacy Haven.
I don't expect it to have many players seeing as its not explicitly advertised on the site and behind a paywall now, but I would like to see if people even still play it before paying $15.
I don't care if there's only an average of 3 players at any given time with a peak of 15 during weekends and stuff. I play a lot of dead MMOs so that doesn't bother me too much, I just would like to have some player stats on legacy (putting them on the front page along with current the current H&H player stats might help spread awareness of Legacy H&H to newer players as well, since most info I could find about it was hidden away on the website under the shoppe, or various forum posts like this from years prior.)
