This is one way to view it! There are plenty of RS gold players! What about a different perspective? "No this game isn't going to be a success. The game isn't unique considering how many similar games already exist. It uses a limited combat strategy, and has an "scissor paper-rock" system that allows little to plan strategically.

Jagex stunned everyone with its support for "JCredits" following the launch of War of Legends. This means that you have to spend real money to gain an advantage in the game. A lot of players find this to be completely contrary to their usual practice of "real world trading". Real world money can be bought with in-game currency. Jagex seems to enjoy the idea of real money, so long as they can get it.

What are players' opinions about Jcredits? "I'd much rather see that the game requires a tiny payment and recieve member benefits rather than having Jcredits purchase in-game things." Similar to Runescape membership, where the amount you spend doesn't impact your game play advantage. Let's conclude this with a few phrases about JCredits, which I consider to be very appropriate.

"I find them ridiculous because Jagex tries to make you pay real money in order to get anywhere. Although it's okay to have micro-transactions in games to gain an advantge, Jagex have stepped it up a notch: charging you to chat, liberate your city from slavery, finish tasks and in general, advance at all. Without JCredits, the game is extremely boring."

Jagex, in my opinion, did not respond well to feedback from users. This is the reason I'll take an example from my personal life to illustrate it. Imagine yourself getting up early in the early morning. Once you get up and turn on the lights. Because you're using darkness instead of light you will close your eyes partially and let in as light as you are able to. As you get used to the light your eyes will gradually expand until they can handle the full brightness of the light.

It's a gorgeous day. Once you go out, the sun will blind you again. You can either partially close your eyes and keep them closed, or you can wear sunglasses. There will be light coming in your eyes, regardless of what you do.

In the example above, you will open or close your eyes depending on the circumstances. The amount of available light will determine the amount of light you block. This OSRS buy gold is known as dynamic filtering and is present in nearly all aspects of our lives.
