It's really addictive but in the long run it's only worth it if you're planing to eventually pay for the membership IMO

Yeah it's a very fun grinding game. The skills system here is the best i've ever seen in a MMO, I would highly recommend it!

The free2play version of runescape is basically just a demo. The real game is subscription based like wow. So you have access to many more skills, a much bigger world, much more quests etc.

Yes but with the way it works you will never need to spend money on the game to get membership if you know what you're doing

Although it is advertised as Runescape its Runescape 3 (Newest version) although fun in its own right the game is riddled with fast XP gains and slotmachine esq purchases apart from the membership that you'd have to buy in order to experience the actual game (playing without membership isn't really recommended if you want to invest alot of time) i highly suggest trying it out for yourself but i'm going to advise you to look at OldSchool Runescape to, which is the 2007 version. its alot grindier and ofcourse the graphics are vastly different but it doesn't contain microtransactions and the like. its alot more true to the game itself and less to your wallet. still try both and find out which one you enjoy. if you want a more modern MMO game and can look past the microtransaction things i highly recommend RS3. if you want a classic grinding MMO that doesn't sacrifice gameplay for income then i highly suggest OSRS. go try them both!

I don't recommend that for any new player. It's not fun to spend hours of playing to just play the game. even with money making methods that are 5 million an hour you have to play 10 hours a month to play the game.

exactly, if you dont have the time to spare then you should not even try, this game requires a lot of time and work to play.

thats really not worth the effort, although possible, to put in so much effort is insane.
with the highest money makers in free-to-play you're still spending about 40 hours just for 14 days of membership or the like. its better to spend a couple of bucks and go into members and use the money makers in memberworlds which are VASTLY better like the difference between penny's and hundreds of bucks and then continue supporting your membership from those memberworlds. the problem here is that its not worth grinding memebership for 40 hours and having to keep that up makes it so you're not playing the game anymore but only grinding towards that next membership. its better to pay for a month membership then do quests/requirements for an actual good moneymaker and then use that moneymaker to support your membership. trust me.. i speak from experience the game becomes non existent the moment you try to support membership through a f2p moneymaker. (this is also mostly because f2p is one big botfest and items have lost all of their value)

you OSRS players are the most annoying people. let people enjoy things. OSRS looks like a game from 1999 and also controls like that.


???? so me explaining the difference between the two games is to much for you? did you even read my post and what i'm saying?
you're actually bashing someone that is advising a player to try both games to find what he likes, and then you call me 'the most annoying people'' thats pretty sad man i don't give a ♥♥♥♥ which game he plays i'm only trying to inform, ♥♥♥♥ off with your preference and ♥♥♥♥♥♥ opinion i couldn't care less.

Very true! but grinding 40 hours every 2 weeks or so just to maintain membership is very demotivating and will cause you to lose interest in the game itself and that would be a shame ;)

the long grind is the reason this game is fun and is the reason it's got such a small community.

This game is everything you asked for it to be. Come on and join us for some fun!

Buy membership for a month and try it out. If you like it, buy for a year on discount at Christmas and play the year. After a year you will make so much gp you don't have to spend money. Worth it for the investment. Don't listen to these hating clowns man.
