As far as I can tell, community is what drives you away. So you feel like you have to have a nice community to have fun in runescape?

Thanks for your comment. What I get from your post:

-Keep community and gameplay open-ended
-PVP is a very important thing because it gives you something to do end game

And, thanks to everyone else who didn't contribute at all. Good luck in life. Don't come back, thanks ^^.

I played RuneScape from Mid 2001 until PKing/Staking were basically destroyed by the Wilderness being removed and staking limits. PVP in general created a large chunk of the economy and without them things seemed a little bland. Beyond that alone, the low risk- no reward idea of the new PVP system is just not my cup of tea. PKing kept me there for the majority of the years I spent (for those who remember the RS1 2002-2003 F2P wilderness ).

Another issue I had was with the community. It was inevitable that it would expand once RuneScape2 was released. I never found it to be entirely terrible, but it lacked the closed knit nature of RuneScape1 (or Classic if you prefer). Lumbridge-Draynor when RS1 was the main game, was the most tight knit group of any MMO that I have played. The majority of the stakers were friends and it was friendly competition to see whom was truly the best. There wasn't all that many people going "PMG YOU N33B!!!" There was a large maturity level to RSC and I thought that was important.

Other than those two things, I truly enjoyed my time playing a wonderful game. It's just a shame they killed the PVP or I would still be playing =).

SantaBla

I don't get why people ***** about the graphics. It's a java game for **** sake.

olaph

yeah i don't get that either

for a java game the graphics a really impressive

though im a big of the view point and style of RS Classic

i tried the new one and got lost trying to go to lumbridge.

this game was indeed very good, i just found 90% of the community immature and everywhere i looked there were scammers

Right there. Runescape is certainly not for younger kids, whatever the defintion of "younger kids" happens to be(as you're supposed to be older than 13 to play.) The whoring...I mean come on. I heard a 10 year old whining about how badly he wanted a girl friend. Besides the horrible community, I suppose its ok for what it is.
