abfarid, do games w 'No gay, no pay': The RuneScape community is absolutely mauling Jagex's new CEO over his decision to cancel new Pride Month events

I’m pretty sure this happened because sooo many players complained about the event the last times. I remember boycotts and stuff.

I’m not saying Jagex isn’t bad, but this time it’s on players.

Jagex never listens to the players when they should, so they dont get to hide behind the playerbase for this one.

I mean, they listen sometimes. But the point is, they, as any other company, were doing it to pretend that they are cool and progressive. As the result they got mostly negative reactions. So why bother with the effort if you’re only gonna reduce your already dwindling player base. IIRC, they were very small symbolic events anyway.

Wow, the way he phrased his reasoning is so undoubtedly cowardly too. He didn’t even try to hide the fact that it’s performative as fuck lol.

And I was just about to resub after stopping in January to catch up on my game backlog.

Back to the backlog I go!

Another instance of Jagex being fucked. The cycle continues.

CEO seems like an idiot and/or coward.

Get his ass.

Graphy, do games w RuneScape studio Jagex confirms layoffs 'to reduce complexity, increase agility, and ensure we are fully focused on the areas that matter most'

Every RuneScape player knows there’s zero chance agility gets a buff

MBech,

Osrs got it buffed like a year ago.

And I wish it hadn’t.

MBech,

Why not? I haven’t had any issues with it so far?

It just feels too easy. There’s so much good grind in this game, and it feels like there is very little reason to grind agility anymore other than clout, and even then now there is far less clout in having 99.

MBech,

I don’t really agree with that. My reason for grinding agility was never to get stamina back faster, but to get the shortcuts. Once I got the ones I needed, It became about getting to 99.

And with the amount of people with 99 in agility now, there is absolutely no clout to chase. Hasn’t been for 10 years really.

It’s also not like it was made easier to 99, it just got less shitty having a low level.

In other words they are being squeezed by their parent company for more profit or to make it look more profitable than what it currently is. I guess they must be planning to sell the company.

PR speak need to die and anyone caught using it should be shamed into oblivion.

Alaik,

Im surprised they didn’t pull a, “rightsizing” out of their ass. Lol

Kalothar,

Actually, I heard recently we must close shut he jaws of oblivion or whatever

This sucks. I remember seeing the membership price hikes a while ago. It has been an interesting experience being someone loved RS to death in the mid-late 2000s, signed up for the 2007scape private servers, saw OSRS get announced and become so popular that I ended up getting to play it on my ipad, and now seeing this era of crazy price increases and layoffs.

Almost makes me wish I played it more back when times were good, but I always ended up playing IM and quitting for a year plus when I died.
