I normally don't vibe with fantasy games (and a good chunk of fantasy in general) because the need for enemies to fight usually means you have the whole evil fantasy races trope - ex. elves are your allies, goblins are your enemies, w.e. OSRS is one of the few games that I feel gets around it, in a very funny way - the game treats attacking random "Man" NPCs as a fundamentally equal act to attacking random "Goblin" NPCs, generally taking the perspective that the player adventurer is in-universe an amoral power-hungry cretin with no social sense, and unlike all the isekai slop isn't trying to flatter them for it.
