Best value is the premier membership, sadly even my grandfathered rate isn't worth it since yak track rewards require premier membership(forces us who are grandfathered at 5$ to pay more.

I do play games that offer same rate or more MTX than runescape but they are 'Free' hence why i buy in to the MTX. Jagex just triple milks the cows.

Runescape i pay for premier x2 for this account and OSRS account.

Fortnite i pay for x2 crew packs for my nephews account and mine, plus spent over 1500$ in skins since i buy all skins i like twice, one for me, one for nephew so it's 'fair'.

^fortnite is always free, hence why i support them more than jagex, to me jagex just watches battlepass style MTX and threw it into this game.

Old school runescape is worth the membership, RS3 on other hand is decaying itself with P2W and dead content chains so yeah prob only worth 2.99$.

FYI depending on incomes IRL, bonds aren't even worth the time buying with in-game money(bunch are buying them to break them wide open, supply and demand has one weakness....'manipulation' by normal use"

^i can only laugh as i watch. Supply is in a massive deficit.
you do know you can log into the same account on both games for one membership right? also you cant say osrs isnt p2w when i can literally make a new account, dump funds into bonds, and go buy all the best gear day one. then i can go use cheating clients to show me how to train skills without worry and kill anyone with top of the line gear i never earned. osrs is just as bad.


RS3 is devalued, I swapped all my billions to OSRS years ago, both games have flaws but OSRS has less. But i don't value 120s/200M XP, plus having the 2 accounts, i play both at once for overall more profits.

Due to money i had, i did monkey madness at 92 str lol, skipped past dragon scimmy with dragon sword then abyssal dagger while i did rs3 clues. :P

I see all of you complaining quite a bit about the fact bonds are pricey and F2P can't obtain them anymore...this is in fact, a lie.
membership costs will continue to rise as the base amount of players dwindle to the mere 10-thousands...and then we'll finally see runescape close.

If runescape is to survive, prices must go up. The demand for this game anymore is extremely low. Those of us that remain play for the sake of nostalgia and something to do while we unwind from a trash day at work...or just to have something to do when everything else bores us.

If you don't want to pay to play, then don't pay to play. F2P has enough to do to keep you occupied, and in saying that, there are plenty of means to obtain enough GP to fatten your bank. If you haven't noticed...lots of particular consumables are on the rise for various reasons, plus the anticipation of the new skill drop, so take advantage of this while you can and buy yourself a few bonds.

Once bonds literally bottom out, stockpile them. yes, they will bottom out soon...because guess what's coming soon? ALWAYS!...plan your membership around certain special events and BXPW they say...yea sure, you go ahead and do that so we can watch manipulators get away with flipping extreme demand items.

TL;DR
If you don't wanna pay, then don't pay.
Tired of playing? Go to another game.
It's that simple.
