Pampered? Maybe.

But Jagex really has gone in deep with the MTX and gambling in RS3. OSRS isn't perfect but if you look at the games side by side it's in a different league entirely, with the only 'MTX' being the membership and bonds which are just membership that can be used for game time or to sell to other players for coins (those players can then use bonds for game time or name changes etc.).

If OSRS got a battle pass the community would revolt.
