    This genre of server has proven incredibly successful, with people re-releasing unchanged source and collecting massive amounts of donations for it. Why do developers continue to try to make the same old ironman/bossing/eco server over and over again? What's wrong with something unique?

    old school runescape already has battle royale it's called the deadman mode tournament.

    this is literally the same shit. after a period of time you have to walk to the safe zone, you can kill any player, fog effects.

    the deadman mode is a seasonal event though. for rsps i dont think its a good idea. imo the only good battle royale games that can
    consistently maintain players are shooters.

    I mean, I'm working on a very extensive hunger-games mini-game for my current server, but opening an entire game just for it, doesn't ensure longevity. Just because it may have some hype at times, doesn't mean it'll stay that way.

    Got any proof of this shit being successful? I've been in this shit for quite some time and i can't really say any of em were successful.. i aint even seen any.
    Plus from the looks of it, it seems like a week-long deal (don't take this fucking literally, you get the point). It's not a permanent deal, there's no permanent money to be made off of such servers, pretty logical why no one even bothers.

    Some guy a few months back re-upped the source he got for free and racked in donations. He then left and it ran for about a week without and mods or anyone promoting it
