June 16, 200818 yr Imagine... RuneScape is no more a multi player game. You are the only player of the game! There is no more economy because every single item you have to achieve ur own. You wont be able to wield an Abyssal whip until you achieved 85 Slayer Many things that you would say: "I just buy it in a second!" would become very hard Another example: You want full guthan to train slayer, but no. Just get all the 4 guthan items from barrows your own! What would you do? It would make the game alot harder and more challenging But probably alot more boring and you have no contact with other players! Discuss!
June 16, 200818 yr RuneScape would become the longest, annoying game on the internet. --- I wouldn't even bother playing without interacting with others.
June 16, 200818 yr Yup, without player interaction runescape would die a quick and painless death. No teams, no friends, no PVP, no way to get good weapons\armor without spending months working for it like crazy, no sense of achievement if you do... Basically many of the things wrong with single player games, minus graphics and AI. Drops: 1x Draconic Visage, 56x Abyssal Whip, 5x Demon Head, D Drops: 37, Barrows Drops: 43, DK Drops: 29GWD drops: 14,000x Bars, 1x Armadyl Hilt, 2x Armadyl Skirt, 4x Sara Sword, 1x Saradomin Hilt, 8x Bandos Hilt, 8x Bandos Platebody, 9x Bandos Tassets, 4x Bandos Boots, 43x Godsword Shard, 82x Dragon BootsDry streak records: Saradomin 412 kills Bandos 988 kills Spirit Mages 633 kills - Slayer Sucks
June 16, 200818 yr As it would never happen, I'm not going to bother discussing it. If I am not mistaken, you just did. If Runescape were single player it would be extremely boring and tedious. I would cease playing immediately.

June 16, 200818 yr As it would never happen, I'm not going to bother discussing it. If I am not mistaken, you just did. If Runescape were single player it would be extremely boring and tedious. I would cease playing immediately. You are mistaken, because that was not discussing it. ;) I didn't say about whether I would personally think it would be bad or boring. I just said it wouldn't happen. :P Please don't try to pull me up on what I say. ;)
June 16, 200818 yr Would create an interestingly long game in a bad way. I'd quit like most would. As it would never happen, I'm not going to bother discussing it. If I am not mistaken, you just did. If Runescape were single player it would be extremely boring and tedious. I would cease playing immediately. You are mistaken, because that was not discussing it. ;) I didn't say about whether I would personally think it would be bad or boring. I just said it wouldn't happen. :P Please don't try to pull me up on what I say. ;)So you reply to the topic to say you wouldn't?
June 16, 200818 yr So you reply to the topic to say you wouldn't? Yes, exactly. It's a nice way of saying I think the topic is stupid and pointless, as it (the single-player RS thing) is not going to happen. But I didn't want to say that and hurt feelings. So instead I said I didn't want to discuss it, and tried to leave a subtle hit. But instead got prodded at for it, and here I am explaining myself. :(
June 16, 200818 yr I would definetly quit. Singleplayer runescape becomes almost as bad as tetris. And i don't like tetris. As singleplayer, runescape doesn't have very much intereting options, since there isn't really other ppl to compete with, thus no sense of achievment, and so it becomes very boring.
June 16, 200818 yr I'd quit for sure. Do you hate Wyverns or Warped Terrorbirds? Think again! Misunderstood Monsters!Want to become a Champion of Champions like I once was? Champion Scroll Guide!Feeling Bored? List of Sidequests Rare Drops: Dragon Sq Half : 1, Dragon Med : 2, Dragon Claws : 2, Dragon Legs : 1, Dragon Boots : 60+, Granite Legs: 8
June 16, 200818 yr I probably wouldn't quit. And to those saying a game like that could never survive, it can. Diablo 2, WITHOUT Battle net. Extremely playable. I don't even play the battlenet version anymore. "The greatest joy a man can know is to conquer his enemies and drive them before him. To ride their horses and take away their possessions. To see the faces of those who were dear to them bedewed with tears, and to clasp their wives and daughters in his arms." -Genghis Khan
June 16, 200818 yr With the trade limitations, it already felt like it turned into a Single Player game, to myself that is. I personally am the one that would host drop parties, raise levels and collect stuff just so I could trade my friends. I basically played for my friends, but with the trade limitations, I can't do that anymore. It basically took out the reason why I do play, the only reason why I would play now is for personal benefits of passing the time, rather than working to achieve something great to help out my friends. So in other words, yeah I could play single player, I feel like I already do that now. But now if you remove chat/friends, then yes, I am gone. :P A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind.
June 16, 200818 yr If that happens, I'd dust off my old Atari 2600 and just play Asteroids :| [brought to you by the Cult of the Sacred Crate]17th to 99 Smithing OSRS
June 16, 200818 yr Then RuneScape would cease to fill its purpose. Its called a Massive *Multiplayer* Online Role Playing Game for a reason. I'd give up on it for sure if that happened.
June 16, 200818 yr I would still play but it would feel a bit odd. since I'm used to doing alot of my RuneScape things on my own it won't be a problem, but to actually run around different parts of the RuneScape world and not seeing a single player...
June 16, 200818 yr Shield of Arrav would be a bit tricky... Mechscape World (the original MechScape fansite)
June 16, 200818 yr Shield of Arrav would be a bit tricky... Nice one. OT: Runescape will be *censored* boring and I will definitely not play anymore. 00:00:0500:00:0400:00:0300:00:0200:00:0100:00:00 Break the Walls down!
June 16, 200818 yr I'd probably still play, I collect all my raw materials anyway so I wouldn't be too phased by that. Woodcutting does not raise your combat level because most people do not play as yew trees.
June 16, 200818 yr I'd quit. End of story. ^^ClicK^^"I backed my car into a cop car the other dayWell he just drove off sometimes life's ok...Alright already we'll all float onAlright don't worry we'll all float on" - Isaac BrockDays Hunting:4 - Kingly Imps Caught:2Money Earned: 4.5-5m
June 16, 200818 yr Tbh if every player was turned into NPC's I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I get all of what I need on the GE and rarely interact with players nowadays.
June 16, 200818 yr I would rather have it single player. It would be alot more fun and less repetitive. ]
June 16, 200818 yr Getting all of your own items wouldn't be that bad. It'd be the fact that runescape is complete [cabbage] without player interaction. [blingkachi50]
