    I also want to note that they’ve just:

    Removed all pay to win elements

    Removed all loot box and fomo purchases

    Added the ability to toggle off other people’s cosmetics in the settings

    Removed all “dailies”, “hourlies” and any content that would pressure you to log in or not do the activity you’d rather do

    They overhauled the combat system last week to be more intuitive

    Are releasing a whole new continent on the 28th to give new players a taste of endgame activities like bossing

    The price increase is on the annual subscription, and as a new player I’m letting my monthly sub roll another month. Not saying it doesn’t suck for long-time players but it’s what, another $40 for a game you intend to play for a whole year and will get hundreds of hours out of?

    I just started playing RuneScape last month as part of a “group Ironman” and have been having a blast. I want to note this is the new RuneScape and not “Old School”. I honestly think it’s going to surpass OSRS at this rate.
