Tansuo Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 In one sitting? A few hoursIn terms of consistent game plan - a few months.

Syd Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I don't really get burnt out from playing RuneScape, but I do tend to get rather bored about it every now and then. Then I simply play less and do other things (or play other games). This game drags me back eventually anyways. I see no reason playing a game when you don't feel like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be that way for all players, even me. One does not really quit. One just takes an extended break. Have an Android phone?

omgeveryone9 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 One session? a couple of hoursOn the whole though, I'm pretty impatient. If there is not update for a long time than I quit until I discover that the game changed in one way or another, just like TF2, which hasn't had an update since december 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mylez Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Every few months I tend to get bored, and claim I'm going to "quit". One does not simply "quit" Runescape. It has you for life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheat Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 When I broke my arm very badly I did not burn out of RS - I would play about 12-14 hours a day (I had literally nothing else needing doing) I was dosed up on painkillers and would just sit at the computer for hours watching TV and playing RS. Post this I've never really managed to last a serious amount of time on RS - its not so much burn out as getting distracted by IRL meaning I lose my interest. I'll have a particularly busy couple of weeks where I won't play and when I come back I just won't be interested.

highlanders Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 So far I've always quit 1-2 years then came back when I felt like it. I don't know that I would come back now though, being maxed (minus dg) I don't see what I would be doing anyway. Maybe if a new skill came out. Seems to be that way for all players, even me. One does not really quit. One just takes an extended break.That's only an illusion though :PYou only ever hear from people who still play. All the people who've quit permanently aren't here to reply. 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Smelly Paws Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 That's only an illusion though :PYou only ever hear from people who still play. All the people who've quit permanently aren't here to reply. It seems that theres plenty who post on the forums with 'retired' as their status. Or are they fibbing....? :-k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that theres plenty who post on the forums with 'retired' as their status. Or are they fibbing....? :-kI can't speak for other people but I wouldn't post on the forum of a game I was 100% done with. At the very least it shows they still have an interest in the game and the community. Plus from my experience, the people who scream "I QUIT!", "I've had enough, I'm never coming back!" the loudest are the ones that never quit. If they wanted to quit for good, they wouldn't feel the need to post here and remind everybody on every thread. The people who quit for good quit fast, suddenly and you never hear about them again (hence the word permanently). 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
