The content is OSRS gold continually updated and new features to the game will never stop appearing. This could sometimes be a negative, especially after the monetisation scandal just a few years ago. The introduction to real-money transactions using treasure keys caused quite a disturbance, but it's nothing the industry of games hasn't seen before. FIFA points, however.

Although they are still around, they are not as aggressive like they used to be. This results from a studio which has a solid understanding of its fan base, while being aware of what needs to be done to survive. A healthy balance was the outcome.

For those looking to return to RuneScape who is a bit intimidated by the style and feel of the new 'RuneScape 3' You have two options to make the feel and look more familiar. If you're interested in all features and updates to the graphics You can go into Legacy Mode which takes away the modern MMORPG features and provides you with the basics of a point-and-click system.

Another option is to play Old School RuneScape which is the original version of the game. It is secured and maintained through regular updates, but it will only ever appear, feel, and perform the way the original game did. The disadvantage is that you'll have to join a paid-for membership for access to the available worlds. Only a few of them are available to non-paying players.

Let's get the elephant out of the room, is RuneScape pay-to-win or pay-to-enjoy or pay-to-anything? Absolutely not. Even with a totally free account, there is more content to enjoy here than is available in some AAA  cheap OSRS GP PS/$60 releases.
