They will need better EOC first to make a splash in the console market though. They can get on mobile with 0.6s tick when most players don't really do heavy combat on mobiles but consoles will be a different story with more a lot more action based gamers.
Okay but I dont think its necessary for Jagex to compete with 'better, faster, brighter, blah blah' games. Its just about expanding their market and providing access to more customers. Businesses have to expand their market - consoles are an untouched market as of yet.
Take people who may have played RS before, but now ONLY game on consoles. They might get nostalgic, or want to introduce their kids to it. Or have never played and want to see what RS is all about and its there on their consoles.
Doesnt mean it will work. TERA tried it, and it only ended up prolonging the inevitable demise of that game for a couple years (although a revamped version is back). Its still a solid suggestion as long as what it takes to pull it off is cost effective.
Its not like "better faster brighter blah blah" games online has scared RS off.

Who would hop onto consoles to play nostalgic games when they can do it easier on a PC or Mobile?
People that want a full RS experience, which many mobile users claim there are limitations on mobile.
People that dont want games on their PC. They use it for school or work and dont want to clog it up with game requirements.
The kiddies have consoles but not PCs.
Idk, man! Use your imagination!
I myself am going to need to get two laptops soon. One for serious applications and the other for gaming. Laptops because I need mobility that a PC or console cant provide. Why am I telling you this?
I have no idea.

You don't know more kids have phones than consoles and PCs? Use your imagination!
And don't tell me KIDS want to play a game because of nostalgia... unless your imagination leads you to think they started playing it before they were born.
Almost all the MMORPGs on consoles are newer games released after 2013 and packed with EOC style combat.
There are kids whose parents wont let them have constant cell phone access or constant PC access. A console limits their exposure to all the vices the Net and/or Safari have to offer.
There are parents and grandparents right now in the game playing with their kids. We call that sharing the nostalgia - I want my kid to experience what I experienced (i.e. nostalgia).
Excuse me but isnt RS3 based on EOC style combat?
Not everyone lives in your little box, Dilbert.
If you would prefer that RS3 not expand, I would question your motives given that any business must expand their market or face certain death.
