Old School RuneScape (OSRS) was just 'RuneScape' the last time it got a new skill. Back in November 2006, developer Jagex added the Hunter ability, bringing the game's roster of skills up to 23. While modern RuneScape (also called RuneScape 3) has added five new skills since then, OSRS has stuck stubbornly to the 23 from 2006 ever since it released ten years ago. But now Jagex wants to add another, and debate is raging among the playerbase.
As reported by GamesRadar, Jagex is pitching three new skills to OSRS players: Sailing, Taming, and Shamanism. Sailing, as you might imagine, would let players explore the game in a boat and level up by completing tasks on the high seas; Shamanism would let players commune with the spiritual plane, gather new resources and boost themselves with new, spooky abilities; and Taming would let you pick up a furry (or scaly, or chitinous) companion to help you out, distinct from the game's currently-existing pet system.
