Runescape vs ?

What game can possibly be worse than RS, I want reasons, not just plain “it sucks” And like real MMORPGs, not interactive systems like Neopets.

RS is Java based
RS is P2P 5/6 of the time
RS has a irregualr battle system which consists of small numbers and misses
70% of the time.
RS has crummy graphics, I’m not even gonna describe it.
RS it 3D
RS consists of extremely easy and hard enemies, with a pointless death system
In RS, you’re farming for 80% of the time.
In RS, you’re barraged by 7-year olds.
RS is actually PG13, although it contains no innapropreate contents whatsoever
In the latest event in RS, you hold a spider and it pees on a clock.
In RS, fishing looks like masturbating. But your RS male avatar shows no sigh of a small bulge in your pants whatsoever.
In RS, you go on “steroids” 95% of the time.

Top this with another MMORPG game. I’m serious.

RS is Java based

Nothing wrong with that. Java games are cool.

RS has crummy graphics, I"m not even gonna describe it.

Nethack.

RS it 3D

So? Lots of great games are 3D.

RS consists of extremely easy and hard enemies, with a pointless death system

Er, what?

In RS, You’re farming for 80% of the time

It’s called grinding. Welcome to MMORPGs.

In RS, you’re barraged by 7-year olds.

Again. Welcome to MMORPGS.

RS is actually PG13, although it contains no innapropreate contents whatsoever

Violence, Drug references, Alcohol references, with probably some other stuff I don’t remember/was added

In the latest event in RS, you hold a spider and it pees on a clock.

A little odd, yeah, but a reason to hate a game? No.

In RS, fishing looks like masturbating. But your RS male avatar shows no sigh of a small bulge in your pants whatsoever.

Not sure how to respond to this one.

I’m being neutral about Runescapes, not taking sides. But this is the reality of RS.

Big Rigs.

#In the latest event in RS, you hold a spider and it pees on a clock.

Not true. In the latest event, you hold a spider and it SPINS A WEB on 2 clocks.

#RS has crummy graphics, I"m not even gonna describe it.

Also not true. What the heck are you talking about? Take a look at the game “Greg can Jump!” That’s actually a pretty good game, but the graphics kind of stink a bit. Then look at RS. RS wins in a landsilde.

#What game can possibly be worse than RS

Webkinz, definitley. In Webkinz, you don’t even see your character.

well runescape isn’t that bad…it’s bad but look at the bright side…i mean do it has things like you could 20+million gp in less that a month…and about the bad graphics do you play in SD? and what do you mean by pointless death system??i don’t get it i mean if your character died every game has it’s own system that’s the system in RS if you don’t like it then QUIT! i mean i did that (i started getting tired from leveling up :$)
btw the pvp in runescape is incredibly BORING and STUPID

Look at the new games part of this site and just count them all. Believe me, though I am a die hard Wow fan, and I dislike RS, but you are actually summarizing RS’s bad parts and giving it a negative feel. I played RS for 4 years and got to lvl 116 and most of this is just exaggerated things that you hate about it.

as for the 7-year olds, if you don’t like the seven year olds, head to a place like karamja, and go into the volcano…the scorpions filter out the total newbies, the deadly reds filter out those who haven’t invested at least some time, and the demons, well…
Let’s just say that any 7-year old that’s either brave, stupid, or silly enough to go there will soon leave a gravestone, unless they started playing at age 5.

You’d be surprised at what little kids can accomplish online, especially if their parents are willing to pay the monthly membership fee. Remember: They don’t have a hell of a lot of other stuff to deal with, like we do. They have tons more free time. Thus, they can do in a week or two what it might take us like a month to accomplish. Well, not a month, but you know what I mean.

I enjoyed RS once, and then stopped playing, then came back and was a member for a few months because some of my friends were like really into it (maybe my freshman year of highschool or something), and one of them was even a GM, but then we all just kinda drifted away from it. Then I realized the wonderful concept of private servers for MMORPGs. FREE private servers. With usually some bugs, yes, or some stuff that’s slightly worse than the retail version, but also some unique extra stuff, depending on the server.
