With the closed beta just having ended for runescapes new nxt, it's getting pretty exiting to see runescapes future.

What the new client basically is, is a transition from java to c++ basically allowing for better graphics, better optimisation and smoother gameplay, and it looks really promising.
This definitely has the potential to bring back old players to Rs3 who may have quit, and even people who had moved over to oldschool based on a lot of 07 player reactions, as now the game world will fully match rs3's eoc combat system.

If you have never played runescape you might not understand the difference, but for those who have, you will understand the significance of this update.
