You have lots of options such as sword, dual sword, magic, and bows and some enemies are more susceptible to one weapon type than the other. There are buttons to press during combat that unleash special attack upon the enemy although the game does this automatically too. It was a really great fetch and carry task due to the humor and entertainment.Ĭombat is point and click on an enemy. The amazing story-telling that gripes you and makes you come back for more.
There was neat embellishments after the quest too, NPC’s in the area rock back and forth experiencing PTSD from the after effects of my pie. The story-line was short, funny and rewarding to play. The first one I found had me carry out a Robin Hood like heist by baking a pie to use as a weapon. You’ll also see scenes unfold in-front of you.Įven after the introductory story has finished the quest story-lines are fun and are engaging. This long quest teaches you the basics of everything, from fighting with bow, magic and sword to fishing, cooking and wood chopping. You’ll also face puzzles to prove your worthiness to wield magic swords and to open doors to monsters’ lairs.Īs always progression is driven forward through quests and dialogues. And it is a pretty good story that will see you fighting zombies, necromancers, mighty demons, colossal sea monsters and cows (at least one of which is a zombie if you can believe that). But now there is a small narrative that guides you through the game, the abilities that you can gain and the ways in which you can play it. My recollection of the game was just a jumbled mess of quests that you randomly found and a lot of resource gathering to craft armor. To my surprise I started the game and found there was actually a narrative for me to follow. The amount of choice and options this system gives you is staggering. Tired of adventure? Retire and become a farmer. Fed up of playing The White Knight? Then just switch in game and become the demonically possessed wizard. Weirdly, this total lack of choice gives you the greatest freedom in game to pursue the game-play you enjoy most. Seems like an interesting character to role-play in a magical hero fantasy world. I went for a purple haired – retired punk rocker with a hippy-ish vibe. All you get is a choice over how your character looks.
You get absolutely no choice in class or ability. I mean a cow on a wheel! Okay… I am very easy to amuse.
#Games like runescape to play how to
This constant self improvement and wealth of content explains why the game has been alive for a staggering fifteen years!Īnyway, Runescape is a MMORPG that is click and point in style and its’ open world is so versatile that it offers players an amazing moment of freedom on how to progress and play. The sheer amount of improvements it has made over the years are astounding, and I find a game I could quite happily lose myself in again for months, if not years due to the amount of content. Some part of me still can’t believe this is the same game.ĭuring my absence the game engine had under gone two upgrades since its early days, and is now running from the Runescape 3 engine. I first played Runescape over ten years ago and I logged in thinking that I’d see the blocky early console graphics, and was very, very surprised by what I found.
