THE GOOD: -A wide variety of skills to train -Detailed, vast overworld -Over 100 quests to complete -Affordable membership (About $5 per month, varies with payment method) -Weekly content updates -Its simplicity -Many activities such as boss hunting, a variety of minigames, and Player Killing -Official Discussion Forums available with Membership -Enhanced graphics
THE BAD: -A community in which 90% of the players are immature -Luck factor plays too much of a role with drops -Lag is unpredictable and fatal when doing any kind of combat -The appeal system is rather unfair on most players
SUMMARY: First things first, I am a player with 3 and a half years of experience with RuneScape.
RuneScape is a fun, simple, and Java-based game, created by the company, Jagex. It has a very wide array of activities to do, ranging from combat, to skills and minigames. Starting out, you are limited...
THE GOOD: A profoundly greater storyline when compared to other MMOs through the use of quests.
Skill based and not necessarily combat influential.
A highly varied and decent sized world map.
Paying for the game is optional, and a basic outline of the game can be experienced through the free version. Paying for the game is relatively cheaper than other popular MMOs.
A large number of servers in which players may freely change from during game play.
THE BAD: Highly repetitive, especially when leveling in skills for lengthy periods of time.
Browser and Java based. This can often lead to limitations in how extensive the graphics of the game are, however, recent updates to detail modes have seemingly proved otherwise.
Many unique and more sought out features of the game are only available through higher levels in skills and combat. However, one should take into consideration the fact that the...
THE GOOD: Very Large, and detailed world 100+ quests for endless fun Around 20 skills that can all be trained in different and fun ways, giving you benefits
THE BAD: Some skills are just a 'grinding' feel Quite a lot of the community's very unintelligent Holidays morphing into chores
SUMMARY: Well first off, if you think I have just started playing, no. I've been playing RuneScape for 5 years (almost 6 now) by stumbling onto the site. Its a very fun game and gives you a good fresh taste of fun when you start. If you play too much, you find yourself in a grinding coma. Also when you have a community such as Neoseeker, with a clan chat, its great fun. Considering most people in clan chats are not infantile, it gives you a on topic chat while playing. theres 400+ songs in the song player (though everyone listens to their own music) and you can see that it was spent a good deal of effort on it. Over all I'd say its a...
THE GOOD: It is a great player-to-player experience. If you enjoy communicating with players across the world then this game is for you. It is a good game with decent quests and obtainable areas and items for Free To Play. Once you go to members, if you chose to you gain access to many more areas and weapons and skills which will occupy your time. Runescape has decent updates and is constantly upgrading. The controls are easy to handle. You walk around by simply clicking somewhere on the ground or by clicking the compass, your character will automatically walk there. The on-screen options take awhile to get used to, but once you do they are very simple to use. You have good options such as setting the brightness of your screen and choosing whether or not you want the musical scores to play. They seem to take your wants into consideration. The overall view of the game is good, easy on the eyes. You can easily play for horus and hours.
THE GOOD: + Variety of skills + Variety of Mini games + Community + Quests + Nice bank space + Powerful Monsters + LOTS of in game music + Tons of armour + weapons + Great mythology
THE BAD: = Lagg, very annoying at times = The odd loser player you'll come across = The wilderness
SUMMARY: Runescape. A massive multi-player on line role playing game. Consisting of over 100 worlds, and 5 kingdoms, the main idea of the game is to train skills in order to perform and complete quests, battle monsters, and of course have fun.
SKILLS
Possibly the centre of the game, there are 23 skills in total, and all are very different. Each skill starts at level 1, and you must gain a certain amount of exp in order to advance to the next level, until you reach the max level of 99. The exp difference increases with each level, for example, from level 1 to 2 you need 83 exp, however,...
THE GOOD: -Updates -Gameplay -Quests -Skills -Items -Stories and Cutscenes -Easy to Use Interface -Free Demo
THE BAD: -Bad Apples -Scammers -Hackers -Combat triangle
SUMMARY: Runescape is a Java based game made by Jagex. Considering the technology, Jagex has pushed Java to its limits. Runescape is an MMORPG That has two versions. Classic, now closed to all newcomers, and Runescape.

THE GOOD: Lots of skills Lots of quests Huge game world Large community Weekly updates
THE BAD: Skills can be rather boring and tedious So-so graphics Combat is so-so
SUMMARY: RuneScape is a brilliant game. It's a very large MMORPG created in Java. Because of this, nothing (such as combat, skills, etc.) can be very in-depth, but it's still a blast to do. RuneScape has a very large lists of skills to do, from fighting hand to hand, to using magic, to chopping trees, making bows and arrows, mining and smithing your own armor, fishing and cooking your own food, there's always something new to do. This is one of the great things about RuneScape; if you get bored of one task, do something else!
These tasks, however plentiful they are, can be rather boring, as they all primarily require just a few clicks of the mouse every now and then. You may be wondering how any of this can be fun. What's really great...
THE GOOD: There are several things that make Runescape, or it's official name, RuneScape 2, a better game than the majority of other MMORPG's.
- Easy to work with.
- Lots of Choices.
- Plenty of Variety.
- Learning how to organise between work and play.
- Community.
- Safety.
- Graphics
- Money Matters
- Runescape Forums, and the Online Community
- Membership, and Cheap cost!
- Quests
THE BAD: There's only one really bad thing to Runescape, and that is the graphix, and the amount of lag you may get, as servers tire out, but that it all, and is negligible when off-set with the goods.
SUMMARY:
1st - You have an easy to work layout, both to the main site, and game itself. On the site, there is enough information to let you just click 'Create New', and play away,...
THE GOOD: The weapons An almost endless world Different levels for hours of entertainment Excellent quests to keep you busy
THE BAD: Lag occurs often on a full server Scammers and hackers aren't rare
SUMMARY: Runescape, basically an online topia of awesomeness. When I heard about this from a friend a while ago, I thought, "Oh great, another online mmorpg." Now, my thoughts are completely different. This is an MMORPG like you've never seen. With all of the different levels that are neccessary for most parts of the game, it is sure to keep you in front of your computer screen for hours. There is anywhere from construction to firemaking to crafting to attack levels. There are millions of weapons to choose from. The smithing feature that allows you to make weapons is an excellent feature also. If you can't afford it, make it! You can spent countless hours wondering from one end of Runescape, to the other meeting various and...
