OSRS rounds out onboarding with Round 2 updates to help new players
TL;DR
Old School RuneScape’s Round 2 New Player Improvements adds clearer skill guides, explains how skills interact, lists EXP-earning quests, and overhauls the Quest Guide with a new Quest Tracker to keep beginners on track—all aimed at easing onboarding while preserving the game’s old-school, exploration-driven charm. The update also mentions broader tweaks and a hardware note (8GB RAM), inviting newcomers and long-time fans alike, even as nostalgia and discussions about membership costs continue to swirl.
