Old-School Runescape as a TTRPG sounds interesting

As long as we are capturing the world and not the grind. Could you imagine partying up and your DM narrates chopping yews for 4 hours? Lmao "you failed your one tick check"

Many years ago, our party found itself on a boat going down a river. With nothing better to do, we started fishing, hoping for the plot to continue after a couple of inconsequential dice rolls.

It didn't. We literally spent hours irl rolling dice to fish because our DM was very clearly not interested in running an actual game that day.

We soon started playing without him, bit I think that is the closest I ever got to OSR the ttrpg.

That's a shame from your DM but equally making the plot for yourselves and putting the DM in a boat where they need to do the setting and NPCs that you choose to seek out can have fun outcomes.
