At the time of writing, Twitch streamer sodapoppin is catching fish in Old School RuneScape in front of an audience of over 13,000 people. A look at the game’s Twitch offerings shows thousands of other viewers flocking to streamers of all sizes who are in a similar position: longtime World of Warcraft players dipping their toes, then feet, then entire bodies and souls into the engrossing world of OSRS.
This MMO migration really picked up in recent weeks, with big WoW heads like Guzu leading the charge on an OSRS vacation. The OSRS community was quick to notice, and equally quick to pull up chairs and popcorn to watch folks familiar with a very different MMO come to terms with this game’s distinct, classical controls and systems.
This seasonal migration only seems to be gaining momentum, and for many players and streamers it’s been a refreshing change of pace that highlights the subcultures within the MMO space.
