Yo yo yo... Like, this type of thread was surely banned many times before, but see my point here.

TH was introduced with the removal of bots to replace the revenue stream, but seeing JAGEX more profitable than ever is it really needed anymore? Can revenue from bonds for membership replace the major negative impact MTX has on the game.

What would be the positives? Well, first and foremost nothing really matters in RS anymore the amount of cosmetic crap and bonus XP handed out makes many achievments not really achievments, imho. Makes the game feel artificial and all about the money $$$. Just look at the bustling community osrs has.

Jagex is known in the past to make bold moves for the survival of the game, could this be it?

Personal problem, not a personal problem MTX was justified for all the bots leaving the rs in the bot bust. Now that money is no longer a problem, get the fuck rid of it! Lets vote! R.I.P. rs3 2019.

And why is it MTX makes the game shitty you ask?
Well, because nothing is viewed as an achievement in this game anymore.
There are no more goals.
And the worst part is JaGeX as a company's imperatives are directly against that of the most players e.g. the steady decrease in numbers of people playing.

I'm not even going to start on the shitty updates this year.

Oh, don't blame the Gowers, being great and all, they are a bunch of gullible nerds prayed on by the corporate harpies, they don't have any say in RS since they sold out in 2011. R.I.P. rs3 2019.

Calling someone a nerd isn't a disservice if spoken by a nerd, like myself. And gullible I meant in a business-savvy way, because jagex, as a business, is a great company. And mtx didn't really exist in 2011 as a concept in gaming, really. R.I.P. rs3 2019.

Friendly reminder MTX is bad not only because of the obvious negatives, but mainly it incentivizes developers to fuck over the players every way they can for more profit, while making quality content is not needed. 2017 was prime example of this. R.I.P. rs3 2019.

O, they read it alright.

The biggest problem with MTX, as stated many times, is that it makes incentives for developers to fuck over the playerbse as much as possible and not make good quality content, like they actually should.

Doesn't matter if its free market since game devs only need <10% of players shell out the money to maintain the mtx. All the other players could quit the game for all they care.


You just described why mtx is aids and needs to go. kudos.


Whoever quit are replaced by even more new players (including paid members) who are proven to have not just attracted but more importantly also retained by Jagex's other promotions with partnership with the likes of Twitch, thanks to Umbral Chets.

Even more importantly, it showed MTX and membership as well as active players can all go up together. They all sit well with each other in Jagex's case. :)


How is 1/2 players lost in ~2years a success in any way, mind you we are talking about rs3 here not osrs, cause the latter doesn't have th.
