RuneScape anyone?

[Jubal]

So I recently started a new character on classic runescape, which they've re-released and is now available with free-play worlds. Does anyone else play/remember playing like a decade ago? 

[comrade_general]

No I never played this one.

My character is now, entirely predictably, down a mine, surrounded by dwarfs, and slowly working on smithing and mining skills.

I guess it's a fairly standard MMO, mostly I'm just on there for nostalgia at the slightly pixelly 3d graphics and suchlike.

[comrade_general]

Old games will always be the best.

A Java-based MMO? I've known people to play it but there never seem to be any with a setting that appeals to me. I liked reading about WURM in PC Gamer for the time they ran a column on it but that's about it.

Runescape was amazing

Never did get as far as completing Dragon Slayer, maybe sometime this year

It was pretty cool in when you had too much time on your hands, but there was never really any new content for free players and it really isn't a game worth paying for.

[Jubal]

This is also true.

[Gmd]

Especially when you realise every skill in the game is the same. Click ->wait for items ->sell -> repeat

I had a few funny ideas for gaming videos to do on RuneScape, but don't have the time to make any of them.
