Is Jagex trying to kill runescape?

Meh, glados is just a weak thing. I'll take HAL over glados anytime.

 

At least HAL knows how to open and close doors.

Anyways, back on-topic (mostly so this post doesn't get deleted tbh) Jagex has no reason to kill RS. It's simply short-term money grabbing at the cost of the long-term health of the game. Cut back updates/servers if there is less interest. If RS is going to ever totally shut down, I think we'll see it a long way away.

my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them me

Buying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.

Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:

your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupine

The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

Well they'll start by singing a Daisy, Daisy - Still alive duet!

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

not only do they make plenty off paying members.

Imagine what advertises pay to be on the home page.

runescape 3 will be out before runescape dies :P

They're not trying to kill it. They just want to milk it.

 

If it dies, oh well. There's always another cow in the field.

This is exactly how it is.

Rs might have more subsciptions now, but most of them are bots. Lots of legit players like me quit this game a while ago. I think 2005-2006 were the days for me.

"...is this at all plausible?"

No. If Jagex really wanted to kill Runescape, why would they go through all of this trouble? Why let the game die slowly?

Jagex might be working on a RS replacement, but that game isn't finished yet. And we don't really know much about it either. If Jagex would be interested in killing RS and making people play the other game instead, they wouldn't let RS start "declining" before the other game is available, now would they? Now I am not totally sure about this, but in my opinion it seems quite stupid. The players would then "escape" to other, non-Jagex games.

We might not know why Jagex is acting like they do. However it can not, imo, be because they want RS to die.

couldn't have put it better myself.

 

However, the most recent quest would suggest that there literally isn't much left in terms of the game story. I mean, they even showed Saradomin in-game - to me that says there really isn't gonna be that much more left to say.
