This weekend, I went to a friend’s place and saw him playing Runescape. I wondered to myself why a 25-years-old adult would play a web-based, notably dated MMOG? I mean, he played the well-known World of Warcraft for years, and then he switched to Runescape? I found this surprisingly odd, so I asked him about his reasons.

Runescape does not required a subscription fee in order to play. There is no installation at all and instant access to play in anywhere. And best of all, the game has offered numerous impressive features since its launch in 2001.

Even though the graphics of Runescape cannot compete with many installation-based MMOGs, it has millions of users whom you can play with, over 150 quests for fun, and 24 diverse skills to practice. Runescape sure is dedicated to their users with new content updates when many other FREE to play MMOGs could care less and would rather focus more on cash items for their own benefits.
