Runescape

To start I have played runescape since the beginning. It started out as a good game and had looked like it had a great future in front of it. I mean what more could you want in a game that had 400 people on it. But then it all changed. People started coming in mass amounts and Scammers and cheaters took over...and the game went to basically crap.

For gameplay, the game when you first start, is great. You have quests to do people to meet, things to buy. There are a large amount of things to do when you first start maybe you want to start leveling up right away maybe try to make some money. Or you could also try your hand at killing monster's and fighting dragons. But you could also go on a adventure do some quest get some goods. Then there are the people. Alot of then are nice and want to help you out. You can make some of the best friends in Runescape (RS) and the people are one of the best parts of the game. But they are also the downfall of it. When you have 2000 people on and you cant get anything done because you are being nagged to hell. What fun is that. Or you have people trying to trick you out of your items that you worked hard to get. And I bet you think that's the worst of it. But oh no you also have cheater that use programs (bots) to play the game for them and they don't do anything to get the level you worked for. However, i think the new updates helped fight against bots.

For the story, I wish I could say something but I cant. There is really no story for this game. It is a bunch of nothing. You start. You walk around you click. And after that you click some more. I mean you do do quest and kill ''things'' but thats the highlight of it. Other then that it is just standing somewhere clicking.

There used to be no sound for this game. Then they made it for members only. And now it is available to everyone. The sound is just some little beeps and tincks that are really just a bunch of rubish and background music, oooooooh.

The graphics used to be very horrible in the late 90's early 2000's. Now they have been updated. Well they are not all that great I mean I am sure they really tried to make them good. Graphics are still pretty crappy compared to other games.

The game is free and that is its best point. yes, you can get some extra bonus's for a sum of cash but its really not worth it. You have things to do and you do find it fun for a while. So If you want a game that most people do find addictive that you dont want to pay for then yes, this game is for you. I did and I still do play it.....Just beware that its not the best game in the world by a long shot, just somehow...addicting.
