I said vintage in reference to Runescape Classic, so the version of Runescape that was live from 2001-2004. When I played RSC (back when Jagex stood up an RSC server around the early 2010s) it really reminded me of trying to play DOS games in terms of the lousy UI, lack of QOL fixes, general jankiness and unforgiving gameplay. It felt like a game that was about a decade older than it actually is because of that.
Personally as much as I enjoy playing various older games, I’ve found there’s absolutely limits to what’s still enjoyable and for me it’s around the mid-90s where before that point the gameplay is too unforgiving for my taste, and the controls and UI tend to be way too janky

Oh yeah, I didn’t think RS was very popular before RS2 so I wasn’t aware they made an original RS server later on.
