slickmovedud Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Just wondering but, from what i've seen between me and my friends sometimes we play constantly for a couple months and then we get bored and quit for a while. I think the reason why i play runescape is because i like the idea of accomplishing something that i can brag about to friends and so. And to spend my evenings training on mossies or something.

Lacrosse_fan Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Because I like the freedom they give us with this game, there's always a variety of different things to do. It's great. Treasure trail items: 9Dragon drops: 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umega Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Got a crappy computer so I can't play the better games, plus can't be bothered to buy a new one. And RS in my opinion is the best MMORPG that I can play on my comp. Though if my main gets hacked or banned for some reason, I'll get a new comp and play WoW. :-w No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

dynastyfan0 Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Two things about runescape appeal to me: - I like accumilating experience and levels that I can't lose because I forgot to save. - I love looking back and amazing myself at my accomplishments. Perfect examples are, I runcrafted 100k nats!! omg thats amazing, I reached 70 agility, how did I ever do it!!

Kilo Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Why do you do anything? Half the time its because you want to, and half the time is because someone told you too. No one told me to play, so it must be the other answer. :P Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Oscar Wilde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkn0wnwarrior Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I have two main reasons I still play and a fact that only has a small effect on it. First, the two reasons are: 1. People I have met in-game 2. Unfinished goals And the fact that has only minimal effect... It keeps me entertained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulgrutha Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 As an interim until I buy a new computer, then it's back to getting owned by Gruul and Kael'thas in World of Warcraft. Yes, they can completely own you. The thing is, they look good owning you, and you look good getting owned. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidium Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 well the main difference between runescape and all the other MMORPGs is that runescape offers the widest range of activities for you to do...i mean for most other MMORPGs like granado espada, maple story, WOW et cetera fighting is just about the only thing u can do...okie well maybe questing (which most probably involves some sort of fighting as well tbh :-w ) so it gets pretty boring after a while. but on runescape if u get bored of combat there are a hundred and one other things u can do...not to mention all the mini games \ and the quests are pretty interesting and updated quite often :) maxed out melee on 10/10/08, current goal: 94/99 cookinglife may be unfair, but why can't it be unfair in my favor?my fake plant died because i forgot to pretend to water it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dork Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I don't really play rs very often at all anymore. When I do play it's because I find it fun (unfortunately most of that fun is draining from the game for me, i guess that justh appens over time). It has a great variety of things to do in game, if you get bored of something you can just switch to something else, and because it is so big, there's alot to do before you're bored of the whole game. ;) Sig And Avatar by Tripsis - 99 Slayer Blog - My Pyramid Plunder GuideOwner of Fire Cape since 28-09-2005 - 426th to 99 Strength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet, the tradeskills in Runescape tend to become incredibly tedious over time. World of Warcraft also has a variety of things you can do, and yes, there are mini games. (Darkmoon Faire, the Chess event in Karazhan) The fighting's not boring at all, especially when you go dungeon crawling. What gets boring is (As in Runescape) trade skills, and (Not in Runescape) reputation grinds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nenga Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I started playing runescape as a way to talk to friends when I coulden't see them at night. Then we had our fights and eventually drifted apart. Now I play runescape because I got addicted while I used to play it for friends. Ponies!

Embraced Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I play Runescape when i have nothing better to do, i enjoy accomplishing targets that i set for myself so to me its a good use of time. :D P2P offers more and better ways of making money than f2p. That's one of the cons you just have to play with if you don't feel like having 1 bigmac meal less per month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tintin113 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I don't want to sound mocking or anything, but runescape is a game, and like other games, we play it because it is fun. I tihnk the real question is, why do you play runescape over other computer/video games. My answer to that, is the great community, and almost limitless content and achievements to be had.
