Jagex CEO Jon Bellamy, who you might remember as the guy who snubbed the game's (newer) Pride events to ensure the continued "operation of our games as apolitically as possible"—whatever the hell that means—is also on a bit of an anti-microtransactions crusade.
Speaking with TheGameBusiness at Gamescom, Bellamy reiterated that Jagex is still on that straight (pun not intended) and narrow: "The team have been looking at the way the product currently is, the happiness of players, where they're finding frustration… If we believe this game has another 25 years, what do we need to change? And monetization is near the top of that list."
