So with the enhancements since then $10 is probably a fair price. I just figure being okay to pay $12 but bailing for a few more dollars for a “luxury” product seems overblown, but again…it’s up to the buyer on if they feel they are getting a good buy.
I never was a Runescape player, but I was hardcore Ultima Online in the early days. Looking at the newest versions out there, it’s intriguing, but also so much more complex now that I think I’d enjoy watching gameplay more than playing it now. Age catches up to you.
I think the worst thing about their subscription price is that it is very close to the same price as WoW or FF14, but with runescape you can only have 1 character. If you enjoyed a quest or lower level content, you have to create a new account with its own subscription. If you want to try an Ironman or hardcore character, that’s a whole other account and subscription.

I looked up an inflation calculator and it said $8.33 Cumulative inflation from 2004 to now is 66.5%

Yes but it’s not fair if it’s per character.
WoW has 65 character slots for $15.00 monthly.
RuneScape has 1 character for $12.00 monthly.
I can see that as a deal breaker. Odd that they don’t have multiple slots at this point, that’s been a thing with games forever.
Most people didn’t use alt accounts because even a main account takes ages to train.
But nowadays there’s different game modes like ironman, and many people have one as well as a main.
