An MMORPG loved by some, hated by others. Most people who critisize this game don't give it a good chance. I personally did not care for it the first six months of playing. I would've stopped if i didn't get addicted. Now after about 1 1/2 years, I'm really starting to like it. And also, people who complain about the graphics arent true gamers. Graphics do make up a game, but not COMPLETELY. I personally would give this game a 9 out of 10. I pay a few hundred dollars on gamecube and ps2 games a year, and I still end up liking runescape better. It's also free =)
Addicted player: Runescape is awesome!
Game Critic: This game is horrible, I didn't give it a good chance though.

An MMORPG created by Jagex. A game that I was addicted to for about 8 months, but I stopped because it was a stupid waste of time. All you do in Runescape is click on something and your character interacts with it, like clicking an enemy to attack it, clicking a tree to chop it, or clicking a rock to mine it. Its subpar combat system allows lower levels such as 70's take down higher levels such as 100's with ease. The game is full of whiney 12 year olds who constantly look for cyber 'cex' (cex is NOT a misspelling, but the word that people use for sex because the creators of the game, Jagex, blur out pretty much every word in the dictionary. Including poop.) When the 12 year olds pay the girls Runescape money for this 'cex', they are instantly crushed when the girl reveals herself to be a boy and runs off with the money. There are a total of about 30 skills in the game, and each one levels quickly. Until you get to level 25 that is. After 25, it is just constant clicking and clicking while making very little progress. To be level 25 in a stat, you will need less than 10 thousand experience points. To be level 99 in a stat, you will need over 13 million. Combat being the main skill of Runescape, I will give you an example of the monotiny of training it. A favorite monster to train on, Ogres, give around 300 experience each. If you haven't wasted your time getting till around 90 combat or so, each Ogre will take about 1 minute to kill. You do the math yourself. Overall, Runescape is a monotonous game with little to no benefit for the player.
12 year old on Runescape talking to a girl: cex plx.
Girl that is really a boy: OK. Give me 10k gp first.
12 year old: k cex plx. (Gives money)
'Girl': k. (runs off.)

ARGH NEVER START PLAYING THIS DAM GAME OR YOU'LL GET HOOKED!
There are the 3 steps to beating your runescape addiction:
1. Wield all your good armour and money etc.
2. Go to the wilderness.
3. Die.
It honestly works - you lose all your will to play the game and can resume with a little thing called...life...

Formerly a great game, with all kinds of mature people and interesting things to do, now after jagex partnered up with
miniclip, a website whose target viewers are 8-12, it's become a disaster area. I can't count on my fingers and toes the many times I was either called a noob, the many times I was challenged to fights in real life, and the times I was just literally treated like shit. Come on, I went there to get away from shit I have to deal with in real life, and put up with twice as much if the shit. It used to be where you could discuss all kinds of real life events, like religion and politics, now its
"Dood, u get the new yu-gee-oh cardz"
"Ya, dere totaly awesom!!"
Jagex just loves to baby...ahem, I mean, cater to the newbs and remove the things that made Runescape a fun game to play, to a game that even a newborn could play. I can't even smith in peace now, without being called a noob or teased or something like that.
Another thing. Everything awesome is for the members only. I was a member for a short time, and hell, it was a GREAT experiance. Almost everone was mature there, had some sort of decency, then it ran out. And I was awakened to how FUCKING HORRIBLE free play is. Nothing there but
"Free stuf plz, I juzt died,"
"Mony plz,"
"Looking for hot, rich bf/gf,"
"Can u get me quest itms plzzzzzz?"
Now I don't mind newbies, I can help them out with quests, but when they start with the "Fauk u beyach, I pwn u in reel life an dis game!!!!!111one one," that shit ain't gonna fly with me! The graphics are so horrible, you would wanna rip your eyes out! Too much lag and glitches, the combat system is dreadful, and I don't give a floppin flippin, flyin fuck if it IS Java! Jagex, unless you can take action with the community and the lag and glitches, you ain't gettin my money, and when all the older people quit, you had better prepare to do so.
..Put shortly, what once was a kick-ass game, now sucks ass.

MMORPG in which the user must make his avatar perform difficult and/or borring tasks. eg. dragonslaying, mining 10,000 coal, fishing trout, ect. again and again and again. often captures the user soul with its mind captivating powers. almost as addicting as crack, heroine and acid....... put together. CBC has started running adds to warn children of the dangers of playing runescape. The surgeon general is currently formulating a warning that will be desplayed on all runescape site and parafanalia.
Scene- mother and son in car driving down the road.....
30 secounds pass.
"another missed oppurtunity to talk to your kids about runescape."

If I may interject with some sense...
Yes, I dislike runescape. I'm not thick enough to mindlessly sit slumped on a chair whileing away the hours watching my 'character' endlessly hack at a collection of blocks that is meant to be a tree. However, I do not try to force this view upon everybody. Not everybody who plays runescape is a nerd. Conversely, not all nerds play runescape! I used to play runescape and I met some genuinely friendly people. But I did also meet quite a few d*ckheads.
My view is, weirdly, that you are entitled to your view. However, PLEASE, PLEASE, consider your own wellbeing - runescape consumes your entire life!!
I have met some runescape addicts in the 'real world' (an idea that many of the aforementioned addicts find hard to understand) and I was stunned at their lack of intelligence. One in particular (naming no names) would always come up to me and start talking at me about 'rs' as if I cared. So, not wishing to upset him, I would drop him hints to try and make him SHUT UP (it was really that exasperating). A normal person would most likely have understood, but he just plouhed on, blissfully unaware of the fact that I was within inches of grabbing the nearest metal girder and clobbering his head until he ceased to be. Other nerds I have met seem unable to grasp the concept that I might actually *gulp* HATE their beloved runescape. The example below demonstrates.
In conclusion, Many people who play runescape are friendly, popular people. Unfortunately, the majority are brain-dead, square-eyed, friendless, lifeless, irritating, boring, miserable, freaky and altogether pathetic wimps, nerds and geeks.
Now, about that example...

Me; I've told you many times before, I don't care about what kind of virtual armour you have. I HATE RUNESCAPE!!!
Nerd/Addict; But I've got full rune!!
Me; Do I look like I give a toss?
Nerd/Addict; It's really cool, see, cos I've got like, like, 200k!
Me; I DO NOT CARE!
Nerd/Addict; But I've got full rune!!
Me; AAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!!!......
