I'm still trying to figure out where the source of everyone's moral outrage is coming from. It's not like its hard to level up skills in RS3. I mean sure, if the top xp rates for skills were 80k xp/hr and these promos were a thing -- there would be a problem. That's not the reality of RS3, though. Some of the lowest xp rates in the game are 300k+xp/hr. Some of the higher xp rates hit 1m+ xp/hr. If someone wants to spend money to speed up their (already fast) progression, then why shouldn't they be able to?
Go play Ironman if you want to *purify* yourself of the "wicked" TH.
Quite frankly, I don't know why JaGex allows comments on their TH promos to begin with. All you find is the same comments talking about someone's *immeasurable disappointment* that a company is trying to make money. This game isn't P2W. Using lamps for xp isn't going to give you an advantage over someone else. Its not like JaGex is selling a Seren Godbow for $60. Sure you can buy bonds, but that will cost you a significant amount of money. Even then, you still have to have the proper skill set to use it correctly.
Its too bad that JaGex doesn't just get rid of these promo announcements altogether and just put an in-game message/ tab that lets a player know of the upcoming/ on-going TH promos
. That way they can dodge these comment sections where all people do is moan about how *evil* micro-transactions are. God forbid a company that wants to make money.
One more side note -- These promos most likely don't take any time away from developing new content & updates. Most of these promos are repeats. Hence, JaGex could probably just input a line of code & boom -- You have a smouldering lamps promo.
Looking forward to all the hate comments regarding how I'm defending JaGex.
