Saw this on another forum, thought it was rather interesting.

Exciting news! We have some ads going out on UK TV during the next couple of weeks.
Let us know what you think if you manage to catch one!
This is interesting, feedback?
I don't think the ad is very phenomenal though, really poor representation of the game in my opinion.
lol……….
If only it looked like that..

It's only going to go downhill from here. As you said it's nothing like the actual game, Just desperation to drag younger children in for more money.
Shame really.

Runescape is trying a new approach (obviously). Back then, everyone who hated Runescape said it had, "Gay graphics." Instead of trying to keep old members, they are updating the game so it will appeal to new comers. Graphics are just the beginning, I'm pretty sure it will be like the sterotype MMORPG's within a year or two.

Pretty much with buy here signs everywhere, and armour/weps you just can't get by working hard.

All of their videos make the game look way better than it is.

Runescape is becoming every time more commercial, I hope it doesn't finish ruinning the game as happened with other mmo's

Wouldn't be so bad if they actually put game footage into the ad, maybe a few NPC models fighting each other or something.. but it seems like they are ashamed of how their game looks.
TBH, the ad looks too "happy" to be placed in RuneScape. When I'm walking around varrock, falador, etc I feel more like I'm in a Skyrim-like setting, rather than .. well, whatever that is. Pokemon would probably be the closest I can think of.
