RuneScape studio Jagex confirms layoffs 'to reduce complexity, increase agility, and ensure we are fully focused on the areas that matter most'
-
I was about to start playing runescape classic before it got bought out. I played it as a kid and have friends that have stuck with it since they were kids. Friends told me to hold off because this new company is raising the subscription price. Seems like another golden parachute scheme for some scumbag ceo is underway..
the last price raise was outrageous , if anyone pays for membership for rs3 the yearly jumped like 20$USD. and the bonds obviously have increased too.

So the new RuneScape was just a cash grab? “reduce complexity “ by reducing headcount just means management incompetence, it also doesn’t make you more agile, proper guidance makes you more agile.
This is a load of shit.

PR speak need to die and anyone caught using it should be shamed into oblivion.
Im surprised they didn't pull a, "rightsizing" out of their ass. Lol

for monthly, 6 months, yearly. the original price before the jump was 12.99, 49.99, 79.99USD
the new ones are 14.99, 69.99, 99.99USD member ships. they got greedy, and they pretty much change ownership a couple times, now a PE firm?
BUT people sitll using in game gp to buy membership, but how long will it last. since ingame it cost 128million gp per bond. bond is currently 8.99/bond. i stopped because last year it massively jumped in gp price.

Why not? I haven't had any issues with it so far?
It just feels too easy. There's so much good grind in this game, and it feels like there is very little reason to grind agility anymore other than clout, and even then now there is far less clout in having 99.

This sucks. I remember seeing the membership price hikes a while ago. It has been an interesting experience being someone loved RS to death in the mid-late 2000s, signed up for the 2007scape private servers, saw OSRS get announced and become so popular that I ended up getting to play it on my ipad, and now seeing this era of crazy price increases and layoffs.
Almost makes me wish I played it more back when times were good, but I always ended up playing IM and quitting for a year plus when I died.

Actually, I heard recently we must close shut the jaws of oblivion or whatever

In other words they are being squeezed by their parent company for more profit or to make it look more profitable than what it currently is. I guess they must be planning to sell the company.

I don't really agree with that. My reason for grinding agility was never to get stamina back faster, but to get the shortcuts. Once I got the ones I needed, It became about getting to 99.
And with the amount of people with 99 in agility now, there is absolutely no clout to chase. Hasn't been for 10 years really.
It's also not like it was made easier to 99, it just got less shitty having a low level.
