But frankly, what do you expect them to "address" at this stage? They said Ocean Bounty is an EXPERIMENT. Nothing is concrete at this stage. The only thing any Jmod said was no TH promotion the first week of Ocean Bounty, and added "no. it doesn't carry into the 2nd week". They are doing everything as they said. They said nothing else regarding TH whatsoever. So nothing there to address.
Don't worry about new games. Half baked "new" games coming in months won't make a dent into RS.
Agreed, as we all know, no "new" games have an existing playerbase that's so invested in the game that they'll stick around through maximum extraction schemes. Jagex already has their target audience on RS3: people that accept MTX and play into them. Those people aren't leaving, so how would a new game be any threat?
Its a good thing that I was not talking about a new game. I know that new games take time to build up a player base. But the games on the horizon that are established and receiving an update will be a threat. Mostly because people will flock to anything to get away from Jagex and because they are " protesting" the current game.
If you are talking about Battle Royale games like Fortnite and PUBG they are threats to every other game, but even so they are less a threat to a game like RS which has a small PvP community. I don't think RS players will rush over to Fortnite to chop tress or pretend to be a rock or barrel.
If you are talking about the almost sole MMO this year like Bless... well, God BLESS you!!!

To be honest this is their last chance. They can easily sell multiple cosmetics on solomon store and runepass and make the same amount of money if not more. You can't just max all players doing nothing they will quit at some point. Th becomes useless once you are 5.4b.
Practically, if too may players are "maxed", there can always be new things implemented easily. New level caps, new gear, new skills and a lot more.
There are always a lot of gamers or potential gamers in this world of 7 bil+ people.
And you certainly forgot Jagex can put anything in TH, not just xp stuff. They can put cosmetics and super duper gear too.
You can tell from the people in game forums and blogs post about "leaving" for other games then and now that they actually have nowhere to go. These people used to give other people a bunch of games and said this and that were no MTX but now they say "Amazon is no MTX, RS is dead because of MTX" or "Netflix is only subscription, RS should be too". Guess why they don't give names of other games anymore? Guess why they don't go
