I mean, when I saw an ex-Jagex employee making a new MMO I thought it was going to be slightly inspired by RuneScape... But this game looks exactly like RuneScape, and the description of the gameplay also matches it perfectly - this is essentially RuneScape 3 but managed by someone else (and with a much newer engine)

The gower brothers have not been part of Jagex for about 10 years, but are all involved in the development of this game IIRC

Edit: I was slightly worried too but it looks like the handful of tiles is more of a fog of war/view distance type thing. These two screenshots seem to show it the clearest

I am well aware, but it doesnt change my opinion. Looks more suited to be an RPG than an MMO.

Looks like they are trying to attract the mobile audience, but they are too late for that aswell.
