Open World Massacre


Author's Note: This comic was originally conceived to commemorate the launch of DarkScape and Deadman Mode. DarkScape is no longer active as of 28 March 2016.

Have you ever wished for an open world Player Vs Player experience where everyone is at war with everyone else? Well, RuneScape used to have two versions of that kind of Player Vs Player experience. The modern version received DarkScape, which sadly, ceased operations on 28 March 2016 due to lack of popularity, while Old School RuneScape received the more popular Deadman Mode, which had several tournaments since its inception, with Deadman: Armageddon being the most recent one.

While DarkScape and Deadman Mode have their differences, they both have guards that attack players that have skulls above their heads.

Maybe the real reason DarkScape died was because it lost popularity to Deadman Mode, which allows you to get a bank key to carry out bank raids by killing opponents in order to steal more loot from other players, including loot from defeated opponents.

If Awesome Possum was in Deadman Mode, he would have been a major target for player killers because he is one of the most disliked characters in video game history. That's why he is shown getting struck by a Rune Javelin in this comic.

The Rabbid wielding two Steel Longswords is yelling "DAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!" because he is about to start a killing spree.
