Ok, so...
Since JAGeX has been doing constant graphics updates, like for movements (fishing, canoes, etc.) and for the actual appearance of players (e.g. Eyes instead of slits) I was just thinking "Are they ever going to actually give us hands sometime instead of just flesh-colored balls at the end of our wrists?"
I think it'd be a good idea to actually have fingers and thumbs for a change. Of course it'd be a lot of work for the programmers to put in who knows how many different hand animations, but it would be nice to see for the first time ever in Runecape. They probably already have the technology to do it but like I said, it's probably a HUGE project to get the animations done and have them be smooth.
Comments or opinions?

I like the nutcracker-hand look of the hands as they are now. :P

With the figures of people being as small as they are, I don't see how it would be that necessary of an update.

It would be more for aesthetics than anything. I mean, if your character was a gray block, would you still play Runescape? That's an extreme. I suppose the little details do matter, but I hardly ever pay attention to little things like that. Not that important.

It doesn't bother me. I didn't even notice that we had little lines for eyes until Jagex gave us realistic ones :P

I would say add more texture to everything rather than add hands...

RuneScape needs to become more like the newly released trailer.

Lmao Jay showed me the trailer and he was like "Since when was runescape ever like this?..". That made the trailer so funny.

really, since when? but even still, the animation wasn't all that good, the archer looked little too wooden, but maybe this is a hint as to where RS is going, with higher def animations, hands, more realistic worlds and maybe a new realm. Heck, I don't think it'd be too foolish to expect some big change in the game, both story-wise and game wise (RS 3 for example).
Still, I'd like to see real hands and better combat animations in game sometime.

I don't think it's foolish to expect big changes but I don't think if there were they would call it RS3. I think if they could go back in time when they were making RS2 they wouldn't have called it RS2 and would have just changed runescape to runescape..

Anyways not sure what you mean by "since when" but the trailer like doesn't accurately portray anything in rs at all, unless they are planning a HUGE update.

I think that the people should have a little more grapical detail but not as much so as the runescape trailer, the people looked semi movie or cartoonish.
