Man I was looking around at all the dead content this game has to offer, after the Magic nerfs I realized PVM is now dead to two thirds of the player base, meaning Melee users and Magic users now have no reason to play, Melee has been a long time, Mage was finally balanced with Animate Undead allowing players like myself who never bossed to finally attempt bossing and learn mechanics, that's gone meaning I and many others will never PVM again, nobody is going to reinvest in Ranged gear now because we know nerfs are coming there, I mean Jagex nerfed every other form of combat into the ground, what's the point of playing 20 years and maxing out just to what, still struggle? Yeah, okay, I play to have fun, not to struggle 20 years deep into grind.

I looked at all the minigames content that are dead, all the worlds that are virtually dead, all the other content in-between that I missed which is virtually dead, I mean games are meant to be fun, not long tedious mind numbing head banging life existence questioning content that hides behind "It's an MMORPG" you're a joke for even trying to hide behind that, then it fucking hit me, this entire GAME is DEAD CONTENT, they've implemented everything into this game that players were against, EOC, MTX, unwanted NERFS, TAX and a lackluster NEW combat style that steals directly from Magic, it's like having to once again 99 Magic renamed as Necromancy which provides damage negating abilities much like Animate Undead which clearly proves Animate Undead and FsoA were nerfed specifically to get people to use their new Magic style, all that GP on abilities, all that time grinding, it was all for nothing.

Jagex clearly wants players to quit this game, look at the almost $100 bank expansion pack, it's an absolute joke, everything they do is an absolute joke and a slap to the players face, now that all the whales have corrupted the system and had their fun, they'll leave too, and there won't be anybody left to continue funding this game.

After all we did for these people, after keeping their game alive for so long, look how they treat us, insult after insult to players integrity and intelligence, the abuse is overwhelming especially when you take into consideration the majority of the player base is kids or gambling addicts, so on one hand they pander to the addicts while claiming they care about mental health and on the other hand they then nerf all the shit they just got the addicts to purchase causing them to purchase the next most powerful thing and spend even more money, all while claiming they have no affect on the Grand Exchange Market prices

Whenever somebody posts a good money making method or even mentions it in game, what happens, instantly nerfed, the price drops 100 fold or some form of the method gets nerfed because it gets labeled too OP like for example when I was farming Rune ore on 12 alt accounts the second I mention it in game the price just drops to where you can't make a profit, obviously to incentivize the purchase of bonds because even on 12 accounts running 12 hours a day you can barely break even, better nerf that and I highly doubt the entirety of Runescape figured out my method and crashed the prices, I've seen it happen with rares far too many times for it to be coincidence, when it comes to end game gear it gets nerfed which directly affects the price of items.

Jagex made every money making method lack luster and take weeks if not months to obtain end game things under the guise of "It's an MMO" just so they can push people into bond sales because they no longer wish to grind mind numbing content for weeks on end, it's a joke and now more than ever because there isn't even any end game armor/weapons worth grinding for, there is literally no reason to even play this game anymore, we tried to stick around and keep it alive but it's done, this is the final nail in the coffin, good riddance you disgusting developers, you deserve all the monetary loss you're about to eat.

So is this your message saying you are quitting?


Why would jagex want players to quit?


They want players to quit to force them back into OSRS so they can milk them for money over there, then rinse and repeat, that was the whole purpose, it's been done time and time again with many other games, if you aren't a blind corporate supporter you'd see this game is in severe decline and on the verge of death, not only is this game in severe danger, it's bleeding profits which is horrible news for investors of Jagex stocks, I don't think any of us expected things to get better after Runescape was sold for $530 Million but holy fucking wow, they really hate players to the point they'll monetize anything and everything including bank spaces when introducing entire combat styles and entirely new skills loaded with resources, it's clear they planned to monetize things like bank space, ease of access (Time/Grind) when things become to grindy people are more likely to spend real cash on a game especially addicts, when people don't have space they'll spend money to get more, they monetized gold and sold it which is ILLEGAL and a violation under Runescapes own rules, who cares if it ruins the entire game as long as it's for profits right? Until the game bleeds out and generates no profits when everyone ups and leaves, what's the point of being king of a game nobody plays, that's what whales are now, majority of accounts are alts and rest are mains, there is no real player base left, so why be king of a dead game?

I got a bit of mems left, I'll probably play until I run out but unless things change for the better, I won't renew, I and many others have had enough of this treatment by devs, again why even get feedback if it doesn't matter, why pretend to care about mental health while ripping off gambling addicts and constantly forcing month long large grinds sometimes years causing people to lose sleep which isn't good for mental health, it's all about image, now Jagex can say they asked for feedback, they can say they promote mental health by getting donations towards mental health organizations while simultaneously forcing players to either fork up money or spend months and years grinding for it, which has caused myself and many other players to lose out on countless hours of sleep simply because we aren't whales and can't afford the fast route, loss of sleep by the way is one of the main causes of mental health issues, it's all a front, I'm out.

RS3 is totally cluttered with dead content. It is depressing. It's rare and precious to find pockets of players anywhere and that only occurs when Jagex gives out free EXP or something.

this doesnt make sense, how would they milk players for money in osrs? rs3 is the game that makes more money even with less playerbase.

this conspiracy is falling apart very quickly. i hope some facts come up soon.

Yup.....The entire game is dead content...... This is what happens when a company * Jagex * gets ran by 3 different company's in 9 years and invests all their $$ into MTX advertisements and updates, and a PVM riddled game only focusing on NPC interactions.... Not to mention doing all of that with players who played a game that involved PVM, PVP, Minigames, Quests and more on RS2...... The little amount of players left on RS3 have already been bored for years but don't even know it.
Always think creatively, and you shall be creative.

Well, the game is indeed mostly dead content like what has been described above but at least necromancy is making killing monsters that drop bones a decent moneymaking method again. We need more of that, more revitilization of older content with new content to plug the dead content hole that is leaking players.
