Ohh and valve would like you to add steam wallet instead even in web link shops

It could be OSRS gold quick short-term profit, however any new person wouldn't be anticipating this kind of game to maintain the shop leading to only F2P or just 1/2 month subscription. You then would need to deal with the negative reviews that are likely to come out of them because RS is a very slow build up to end-game content compared to the typical action-packed or speedy gratification of the other matches on the platform. Would being on steam give enough money to be worth it? We are talking about the cut, we're talking about the money spent making RuneScape fulfill the requirements steam has.

I really don't understand exactly what they are but they're at least likely to include writing a launcher that may work through steam. Steam distributes updates for games on the stage so you have to have a way to get the upgrade through 2 channels at precisely the same moment. Not impossible tasks although not 5 minute types either. And that means you've got to ask, what would it do? Runescape's problem is not that people haven't heard of RuneScape - it's that people don't want to play with it. Even people who have never played an MMORPG in their lifetime have heard of runescape.

The problem is getting them to play, would being on matters like steam assistance that? Perhaps, but it is not certain. Steam has games with their own launchers, although I might be speaking out of my ass here. The RuneScape client has its own launcher with no user interface. They would only need to have the wrapper on steam/epic, which would just need to be updated when there are major client updates in which you need to redownload it in the site (which does not happen often, right?). Not sure how they would handle revenue sharing. All RuneScape purchases are done not and through a weblink in RuneScape match, but they could likely mplement a steam shop.

Yep plenty of steam games have their own launchers but from what I have seen updates are still handled by them via steam rather than via the launcher itself. Meaning every week they'd be pushing updates via steam as well as through Apple, android and the present desktop client. Yeah that on its own is not a deal breaker but all these little things accumulate very fast to make a simple proposal"put game on steam" into a pretty major project with loads of possible downsides.

Ohh and valve would like you to add steam wallet instead even in web link shops. And any in RuneScape game purchases have to be secured so that a participant accessing through steam can pay via steam. Basically, they want their cash, you can't blame them but it's full of negatives from jagex's view. You also have the upgrade process in general, I do not understand what kind of lead time steam want with updates being pushed and if that would work with how frequently RS is upgraded. Many mmos possess their own launcher, and steam upgrades only upgrade the launcher. Steam RS 2107 Gold keeps the launcher up to date, the launcher patches RuneScape, completely out of steam.
