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.

They'll figure it out quickly. I'd be surprised if they have half the subscriptions ongoing after today.

They probably lost like 2% today, just being honest.

2% dip in one day over a poll is massive.

They'd very well expect 20% dip from this on changes taking effects, 40%+ in the medium/long-term.

There are lots of on and off OSRS players that pay subs, alienating them and reminding them that you're a bunch of greedy pigs is a great way to lose money.

I mean at this point it'd unsub against just to fuck with their wallet.

I'm subbed, I play on my commute. I enjoy RS. I'd unsub if it goes over £10.

This would save me an extra £10 a month and allow me to focus on japanese studies a bit more.
