  • Runescape is a game I've heard a lot about. However, I've never played it myself. In this video, I give my first impressions of the game, coming from a more fast-paced MMO player.

    I will agree RS3 and it's sibling OSRS are extremely overwhelming at first and very untraditional in how they're designed. Both games don't offer much direction but allow absolute freedom in what you want to do. It really is about making your own little adventure, having absolute freedom. I've been playing the game as a whole since 2004 and never looked back. Try both versions for sure. I prefer RS3, but Old School RuneScape offers a ton of cool stuff as well so it's worth checking out.

      Awesome insight! I think I'll give OSRS a try too before really going ham on one version or the other.

    I prefer RS3 but there is alot to the game but alot of people are really helpful and finding a group of friends or a decent clan is a must.

      I haven't gotten anywhere close to finding a group or anything I think, but I definitely felt like there was a lot! I was impressed by the depth. I don't think it's a bad thing, just a bit much to have all thrown at you at once.

    All these people in the comments talking about OSRS are a tad nostalgia-poisoned, imo - it's not nearly as good as RS3 in terms of player usability and interesting content. Notably, it has almost no quality of life features, by design, to give an "old school" vibe. That may be nice for people trying to relive their childhoods, but it's just bad game design for a normal player.
    That said, I highly recommend trying them both! An especially nice thing is that if you pay for membership on one, it works on both of them, so it's entirely possible to swap between them if you're bored and want to level up the same levels again in a parallel universe for the heck of it.

      Ah, I get it. It makes sense, some people want nostalgia, while others want improved versions of the things they like. I do plan on giving them both a more in-depth try! Someone else mentioned (sarcastically) that I did only try RS3 for a short period of time, and they're right! I plan on doing some longer gameplay testing of both of them and trying to get into them both a bit more in the future!

      @@IkazuJapan I highly recommend playing OSRS. Items and achievements feel much more rewarding. As a new player, you might not understand why things like the toolbelt can be detrimental. I've invested a lot of time in both games, but the only one I still enjoy is my OSRS Ironman. It’s a bit tricky to recommend Ironman mode since you might not fully grasp why it enhances the experience or how the bond system affects the game’s integrity.
      In summary, if you’re looking for a quick, arcade-like experience, play on regular accounts where you can speed up progress with real money. But if you want to truly engage with the game, go for Ironman. If you have friends, convince them to try Group Ironman-it’s the most fun, in my opinion.
