Crazy it took this long tbh. Looking at Old school should have been enough of an example. But Jagex in typical Jagex fashion cant do anything and requires the community to stop the game driving off a cliff.
(Yes I am Jagex biggest hater)
It might not be that crazy - the poll here is only for Treasure Hunter which is a lootbox, not all MTX in general. """Coincidentally""", EU is about to introduce regulations that would essentially ban or limit lootboxes in video games.
If you asked me, I'd say it's just a way for Jagex to fix an upcoming legal issue and get positive PR for doing so. With this poll, there's also a proposal to add in a way to buy bonus exp directly for real cash, albeit with a cap.
