Guest Kickpointy Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I was thinking about this today. What do you think the name has to do with the game? Please explain you thoughts. NO FLAMING OR SPAMMING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berbatovsky Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I think rune means runes(magic), and i think of scape as in landscape, so to me it means rune world. Thats really badly phrased sorry. Mostly game names involve either the content or style of the game, like Gears of War because the soldiers are called gears, Halo, because of the Halo devices, Warcraft, because war is waged.

Lenin64 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Well Runes and Capes Merge it together Runescape Capes don;t have much to do with the game, though, so that seems slightly pointless...unless you;re joking.

Nice job. I always thought Rune was about the Runite armor/weaponry, and Scape meaning Landscape. Treasure trail items: 9Dragon drops: 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 well, the game sucks you in, and you are supposed to RUN and ESCAPE. Therefore, we lost :anxious: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voldmort0 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 The land of rune. Rune is the base armour of the game as well as base armour of combat which, wether some people like it more or less, is also the base of the game.

Dragons_Might Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Well, Runes are like ancient symbolie thingies. Scape is a land..

Ginger_Warrior Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 In every other game I've seen, a Rune is a mystical force, usually contained within a rock or a stone, hence we have runes. I've never once seen the ground on RuneScape referred to as "Earth", so I presume the ground in RS is called "Rune". "Scape" simply means an area of space, so presumably, the area the rune covers. Therefore, we have RuneScape. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Observer Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 RuneScape is based in a time where magic and fairy tales "existed". "Rune" as in Magic. "Scape" is like land. Therefore, RuneScape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshadow Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Yes, A Magical Relm/Land Land - landscape Rune - magic So, rune scape or runescape ;) Runite armour was just named after the name Runescape was formed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
