Runescapes Evolution of Combat is broadly considered the most divisive update to ever come to Jagexs MMO. The fundamental reworking of the games core combat mechanics in 2012, largely driven by feedback from prospective players at a time when Runescapes existing playerbase was dwindling, alienated much of its old guard. However, while this was a play to keep the game alive, the introduction of pay-to-win system Squeal of Fortune earlier that year, which was later replaced by Treasure Hunter in 2014, was a push to maintain profitability that fundamentally called the studios integrity into question. Now, over a decade later, Jagex has announced that, following the conclusion of a poll signed by over 120,000 players, Treasure Hunter and associated MTX elements will be removed from Runescape completely. But this is just the beginning for Runescapes new era.Read the full story on PCGamesN: Runescape's worst feature is finally being removed, and I'm feeling hopeful for Jagex's modernized MMO for the first time in over a decade
