It's already been confirmed osrs is the more profitable game. They buy memberships and bonds which is the majority of the revenue and mxt revenue went down from 2017 to 2018. If were going to talk about profits though the NBA is more profitable then the NFL but more people based on the ratings watch the NFL
OSRS already been "confirmed" as the more "profitable" game? Confirmed by what?
Confirmed by then nosediving "80k OSRS "playerbase" now or about half it had a few months ago?
Confirmed by the rising RS3 "playerbase" since 4 months ago in the face of the nosediving OSRS "playerbase"?
Confirmed by the substantial and sustainable TH and Runecoins sales of over £24 mil last year, solely exist only in RS3?
Confirmed by the 180% u-turn where OSRS is forced to embrace NEW SCHOOL ideas of live events and e-sports like DMM and pseduo gambling of the latest trending Battle Royale in LMS where players are going to be wagering gp they can instantly get from selling the Bond MTX hoping to win more gp in game?
It states that osrs mobile brought in more players thus why they had a record breaking financial year. It's not crazy to think osrs makes more money then rs3.
The actual statement was the record breaking membership was mainly a result of their promotion with Twitch and OSRS mobile, not just OSRS Mobile. Yes, you are absolutely crazy to think OSRS makes more money than RS3.
And don't forget membership revenue was shared between RS3 and OSRS since the same membership cover both games. Besides, OSRS is nosediving in "playerbase" the current year. The last reporting period ended more than 6 months ago. There is only RS3 Mobile coming up this year but nothing from the OSRS end except a graph showing nosediving "playerbase". Perhaps OSRS is nosediving becasee of not enough MTX.

Lmao, runepass was canceled due to being a disappointment but little did Jagex know, they could've milked the hell out of whales like EA are doing right now!

It's gonna cost an absurd $170 AND time gate? It's a 2 for 1 special!
Very often the same product works differently for different games.
Remember Jagex's RunePass? Did they sell it for $170 each? I am sure if players were happy to buy RunePass for $170 each Jagex would still be selling it.
Now you have to look into what the $170 Apex players are paying for their Pass comparing to Jagex's RunePass. Jagex did not spend time developing content for RunePass but Apex (and Fortnite too) developed content for their Season Passes. Seriously, who would pay Jagex $170 only to bust their tails off doing the same old xp grinding for 2 weeks?
You also have to look into what different communities want. If they don't want Season Pass, then they won't buy it and the company has to scratch it. For instance, CoD is also removing Season Pass in their upcoming Modern Warfare:

Can't be so sure until its been tried! Jagex never tried doing Runepass WITHOUT treasure hunter. Players don't really want to put in effort to earn their items when they can just hold down spacebar for it!
Only Jagex can tell about their Runepass. They don't re-offer it means they don't think it works. Only Blizzards can tell about CoD Season Pass. They are cancelling it obviously because they don't think it will work in their next CoD release.
Why don't Jagex put RunePass in OSRS and remove membership there?
