Runescape

RuneScape is one of the most popular MMORPG (Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game) games of all time. There are several million players that play regularly, as well as countless fan sites and player resource guides found all over the Internet. Players can enter a realistic 3D virtual world from the comfort of their own homes. This fantasy realm, called Gielinor, is made up a variety of “zones”, including kingdoms and cities. RuneScape members can play as their very own customized character while exploring the world, doing things like fighting monsters, combating other players, and participating in exciting quests.

Want to know why RuneScape is so popular? Here are just a few reasons:

• There is no specific path that needs to be followed. Players can run around exploring and completing quests as they wish.

• RuneScape provides an interaction feature so that members can chat, trade, group up, or even fight against one another.

• Players can design their own characters by choosing features such as gender, hair color, style, and more. Players can even design the characters to look like themselves!

• This is a great game for kids. Parents need not be concerned about the type of words their child sees on the chat log. There is a safety feature to block out the unpleasant words.

• Premium membership is less costly than that of other MMORPG games, which makes it affordable for players to access every feature of the game.

• There are “puzzles” for the players to solve in order to complete quests. This is a great way to expand the mind, especially for children.

RuneScape has upgraded the game’s graphics over the years, with the most recent being this July.
These notable upgrades included a full-screen mode, texture and shadows, and overall more advanced detail. Players can even choose whether they want to play the game in “high definition” or “low detail”. Those with old computers won’t have to worry about lagging as much should they choose “low detail”. The game is still enjoyable, no matter the mode it’s being played in.

While members can play for free, those who choose to pay a monthly fee get better opportunities, such as extra item storage space. Paying members are also allowed to post on the official forums, while free members are only allowed to lurk. The game is played in many countries all around the world from approximately 150 different servers, with more players joining in everyday.
