Stolen from myself 6 months ago at https://lemmyverse.link/lemmy.zip/post/35616522

I know I remember seeing some people talk about how nice some of the environments in Hitman were, and that they’d just walk around as a tourist from time to time, treating it like a walking simulator/virtual tourism thing instead of the stealth assassination game it is. Curious about other things like that, where you play a game totally differently than it was meant to be played.

    In osrs there is a PvP mini game “soul wars” that I love playing absolutely incorrectly.

    I follow teammates around and rapidly use kits on them to heal them, use weapon specs to stun whoever they’re fighting, that kind of thing. I don’t usually try to attack anyone.

    While osrs does have some healing mechanics and spells, almost no one uses them, which I find really sad.

    I’m fact, in soul wars they actually blocked the healing spells from working at all, a fact I learnt only after getting level 94 to cast them.

    After all these years, no one had ever tried I guess, I had to have a friend edit the wiki so no one else would be surprised.

    Anyway, a friend looked me up and apparently I was pretty high in the high scores for someone who doesn’t kill anyone.
