To promote existing player engagement, to increase MTX sales.

Make no mistake, decisions like these by a company like Jagex are never taken for benelovent/kind reasons, they're cynical business decisions.

And of course to recruit more Partners and do more Partnership pay for early access and later crossover promotions like "buy Redbull energy drink" get Purple Skin and Flying Wild Hog pet.

Reading this, all I hear is "I don't like this event, so this event is therefor stupid and everyone obviously agrees with me, because it is my opinion and I am the center of the universe."

If that's the case, then you, sir, are absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, completely and utterly Ctrl Alt Delusional. Be the change you would like to see in the world.

" Ctrl Alt Delusional," I'm going to have to steal that. Narangren Tirthallion, sword-for-hire, at your service.

You do know theres lvls beyond 99 right?

So thats one of the reasons.

Plus what does IM not partaking have to do with anything?

They chose for the mode to be that way so.


The point was to show that its useless to a majority of the playerbase. which it is. I would have thought that was obvious.

The entire game is useless. Dear God, please send the competition, feels like there ain't any.
I long lost count of the victories, there were just far too many.

Useless games would not been gaining so many players lately, especially with a spike up of 20%+ percentage during DXP Live. Useless games would be ones which fail and fail and continue to fail to draw players despite of relentless marketing for months and begging players to like or wishlist them.

^ that might be useful to jagex, but I'm talking about for the player.

Runescape, at best, is procrastination... its still a waste of time, even during bxpw. Dear God, please send the competition, feels like there ain't any.

How is a game not useful to the players when more and more of them are coming to play? :D

The End.

That doesn't make them "useless."
Gambling is a bad idea, not useless. People enjoy it, that's the point of a game. Just because is has no other practical value doesn't make it useless. Narangren Tirthallion, sword-for-hire, at your service.

A lot more players played in EVERY DXP. Of course more players like DXP.

We may say "poker machines exist" so some cheap Steam games with only 3k-ish players are still not shut down yet for the very same non-existing reason. :D
