I'm surprised I haven't seen much discussion here on some of the released or proposed membership pricing that's been teased.

Some of the options I've seen are just insane for such little benefits. $200+ dollars per year for some services that should be given by default. Or paying for "mobile only" access, and a shorter AFK timer?

I play both RS3 and OSRS and we've already been through a few price hikes. Thankfully some of us are still grandfathered into the old prices but if some of these changes were forced on us, I'd probably quit.

I've been watching this space to see if anyone would mention It. It's actually repulsive and beyond the insane monetisation, they dangled all the things we should have had years ago (support, data security, multi character memb price discounts) only after they can charge us out the ass for it.

Also, I've seen talk about jagex removing grandfathered rates

It's worse than EOC. A lot of players (Myself included at the time) was open to the idea of trying EOC and stayed. + there was always hope (that came to Fruition) about a release of an older version of the game.

This negatively impacts everyone, with 0 upsides. Even if they do nothing, it feels like the doomsday clock has begun.

I got back into the game for leagues and was 3 bonds away from finally using my credit card to pay for membership. Asking us to pay more for basic features they’ve promised and never developed is insulting.

My coworker has been talking about POE2 a lot so it’s probably a good time for another break to try that and hope we get an actual apology or some other action within a month. Kind of tired of Jagex doing these “We hear you” apologies where they just rugsweep it until we grow apathetic and then go back on their word

Yeah the minute I see my grand fathered rate removed I am out. The game doesn't deserve a $20 per month price tag.

My biggest issue with it is that essentially all of us who are grandfathered rates can quit, but it wouldn't make an impact because they'd cover their losses with people who maintain their subscriptions on the new rate.
