Pretty much, it's a great deal simpler and quicker to OSRS gold find flaws than to fix them, but they have been making a real effort. Like creating a C++ customer for steam is a pretty major deal for how little the neighborhood seems to have reacted.

OSRS has gotten a good deal more devs and servers during 2020, so yeah, it looks like at least a bit of the boost in revenue/profit is being reinvested.

I worry that osrs becoming the main cash cow incentivises jagex to drive for more cash grabbing practices in the sport.

I am hoping it shows Jagex that you don't need intrusive MTX to make something that's very rewarding in this era.I hope it is the stage they inevitable eliminate mtx from rs3, in which case Im sure a great deal of players can go back to the game, increasing even further the subscription count.Probably unlikely to get removed entirely.

At least from what I've seen on the buy runescape mobile gold subreddit and such, most RS3 players aren't a lover of MTX but many would be much happier with it's that they toned down or removed the P2W components (e.g. buying exp) and pushed MTX promotion (or at least had more real updates per week after week of MTX promos and little else).

Interesting. And if the sub-par are from OSRS, that's probably why we have seen such substantial investment in growing OSRS within the last few months.I wonder how it will look for 2020.
