All of the items, animations, outfits etc. are COMPLETELY cosmetic, so they are not getting any advantage at all. It is just if people want to look cooler, they can spend some money which I am fine with, they are not getting ahead in the game at all. And if it gets Jagex more money to bring in better content, then even better. smile

For now it is that way. But remember how the SoF started out as just a simple once/twice a day thing that was just about luck. Then Jagex added the ability to buy spins and then it became about luck and who can put in the most money for spins to get an advantage. And Jagex used the bull**** excuse of "well everyone was using their spins so they all like it so it's staying" to keep the buyable spins even though a majority of players detested the ability to buy spins. It's the future that this store represents that I hate and I know that eventually it won't be just harmless cosmetics and animations.

So you're going to compare an update that started out with buyable items, to an update that didn't. Seems legit. They already have the ability to make money off it, you've got no idea of what they plan to do, but somehow you do. At the end of the day Jagex is a company who has to make money, and everybody gets paid before you do. Besides, nobody is forcing you to stay around and thus if you don't like it, please exit.

We must strive to reach the simplicity that lies beyond sophistication.
