Really I think it is the best representation for new players. Looking back RuneScape Gold once I maxed my account a couple of years back I realised that the caliber of upgrades during my journey was so far below what should happen to be regular, which stood at harsh contrast with the quality and frequency of MTX releases.
There is so much lore they could base outfits and things on as well. Those fresh YakTrack items look so bizarre, cause they have absolutely no link to anything whatsoever - equuis, dioscuri - what is that? Why is it here? I mean, you have noticed the astrology motif of the Yak Track, right? The constellation Equuleus is also known as Equuis Primus, and Dioscuri refers to the twins of legend, Castor and Pollux - the eponymous twins of the constellation Gemini.
We know that the science of astronomy is present in Gielinor - that the Observatory quest confirms our zodiac's existence, and Wizard Chambers research the stars and their connection to magic. I could see him involved in a quest - possibly involving the Moon Clan, given their use of astral runes specifically - relating to astromancy and constellations. Maybe rewarding you with the expansion into the Lunar Spellbook, untouched for many years?
I've literally seen people standing in the Grand Exchange with a snowman mind, shark fin, stick arms, dragon claw feet, invisible glowing (divination) legs, it seemed like as many animals mashed into a single as possible. It looks like something which would come from this machine at the close of the movie"Spy Kids" where he'd like 3 confronts. It awful. The remainder of the time folks look with glowing wings like Power Rangers that are vibrant. I don't have any clue what's going on anymore. I think it is important that new players see what kind of sport RuneScape 3 is now, so they don't do what I did and have fully invested in to what ends up becoming a shallow, arbitrary, and altogether disappointing trip that pales in comparison to the pre-MTX version of osrs gp that almost all of us fondly remember.
