Title: Runescape or other terrible MMORPGs
Post by: Pentagathus on March 25, 2016, 04:09:52 PM
Anyone still find the time to play these? I decided to have a crack at runescape recently because nostalgia, and it was an awful idea, I forgot how mindlessly addictive I find these games.

Did some RS a few months ago, and did some Haven & Hearth more recently. They are very addictive - I'm still thinking that sometime I might go back to RS to try and complete Dragon Slayer, since I never managed that.

I had a big RS problem a couple of years back... I'd played it in my youth (I would've been... eight? Maybe nine?), and revisited it out of 'nostalgia' shortly after I finished my A-Levels. In my third year of Uni I had a nightmare about no longer being ranked for my Fletching skill, and realised it was probably time to kick the habit.


Now three years clean, by which I mean "I find other ways to waste my time on the Internet".

I prefer H&H to RS, I like things that are more freeform in general and where I don't need to grind so much to get skills up.

I've found myself recently watching one or two Runescape players and their videos of late.

Star Wars the Old Republic is my guilty MMORPG

Tempted by Runescape but last time I went on the lack of F2P stuff kinda ruined it

I still dip into that occasionally. Think I have 10 or so high level peeps now. And I have an instant max level boost which I haven't used yet.

I think I still have a good amount of Star Wars credits in TOR.

Played RS earlier last year for first time in years. I catched up on quests did some of the new skills, i find it addictive for first few weeks then once ive done a load of quests i generally stop xD. prob to return again in a few years. I think thats the most constructive way to play MMORPGs to just dip in and out as new content is relesed over the years. That's generally what i do.
Did the same with WoW when legion was released, played for a few months then cancelled my sub, will prob return when next big patch happens or something i see is interesting.
