Seems like just about everybody plays, or has played Runescape at some point.

I haven't played many MMOs before, though I did play Maplestory (interestingly enough I still do, but with my 10 year old cousin, lol) and Ragnarok before.

Tried to play a few others but they usually all block China addresses to make us play the China version. Unfortunately my chinese sucks.

Seems like most MMOs are grinding-oriented. That's probably why WoW got so popular...

They're basically all the same under a different skin.  It's a bit unfortunate, but that's how free games are usually.  I find the whole concept of buying decorations for your toons so unnecessarily costly.  My 10 year old cousin calls me up from time to time, telling me how cool subies (sp?) are and hair styles and such.  Basically, he tries to get me to buy him Nexon cards, so he can go buy his decorations.  Geebus, some kids these days just don't know how difficult it was to earn $12 back in the day.  Being a paperboy in the early 90's was tough.  ^_^

@Scuffl:


You know what?  Warcraft 3 was cool.  The graphics were nice and I like how you can change the game experience with mods and maps.  However, I enjoyed Warcraft 1 and 2 a lot more than Warcraft 3.  I'm still not quite sure why. 


Haha.  8)

@Enigma Punch:


Yes for sure.  I mean, each game was created and people played them at one point or another.  It may be enjoyable for one and not for another.  I've read at other forums how people say WoW sucks because it has this and that and etc, and others say the same thing about GW, LotR Online, D&D Online, etc. 

When it all comes down to it, it's just personal preference.  So I totally agree with you there.
