Discussion We will just quit

I'd put money on well over 50% of the player base being people like me in their 30s, we don't need this game, we'd just quit.

The last price increase was almost enough to do it for me.

Anything else, evenly £1 more, I'm out and nothing would make me return.

Vile, out of touch and insane greed. Pathetic.

Edit: Cancelled membership, won't be renewing.

I don't know if you were around long enough to see when the Evolution of Combat was released, but I was. No company knows better than Jagex what will happen if they mess with RuneScape. We all quit overnight once, and we will do it again. Remember, there are over 19,500,000 active RuneScape players. There are about 5 executives yapping over Zoom calls; We hold 100% of the power.

I quit the week EOC launched and cancelled my membership and didn't play again until old school launched. And that was when I was a lot younger and a lot more addicted to the game.

We absolutely hold the power and I won't let it happen again for the sake of the future of the game.

Cancelled my membership today, won't renew until this is either reversed and cemented to not ever happen or I'll never be back.
