Name a game with better quests. Pro-tip: You can't

I can't. It's the only MMO where I actually read what the quest giver had to say.

Runescape fucking sucks and my friends won't stop playing it. It's literally the same fucking grind. It's designed to waste your fucking time.

You could at least play a game that's fucking fun to play with friends, instead of just getting high and sitting next to each other as you grind. God damn. Spend that 500 hours grinding wood cutting on training to be better at a fighting game. Jesus.

>>387833001
The rest of the game is dogshit but the quests in Runescape are great.

>>387833001
>Spend that 500 hours grinding wood cutting on training to be better at a fighting game.

You say that as if practicing a fighting game isn't equally wasteful.

>>387833001
All games are designed to waste your time.

The saddest part about runescape is all the dudebros that play it and think the quests are shit, tedious chore grinds because they're too fucking simple-minded to actually read into anything above 3rd grade comprehension levels.

Unironically, most of the RS3 community loves quests and all these tards have fucked off to 07scape.

>>387833438
>>387833535
At least with fighting I am interacting with another human being and using strategy and skill to overcome obstacles. Not just a time investment like grinding in Runescape.

>>387833952
The skills you gain from practising a fighting game are utterly worthless in the real world, just like all the "experience" you gain from grinding in Runescape. Don't kid yourself.

>>387835461
Yeah it's great playing with a whopping 20 other peolpe in a server that not only doesn't even have all the 2006scape content yet but will never get updates after that cause the admins are retarded purists, meanwhile osrs gets constant new content updates.

If you like playing with 20 people tops all of who circlejerk with each other over how long they've been playing the game for.

>>387836395
Holy shit it's still hasn't gotten all the quests yet? Jesus christ what a joke, it's gonna take until like 2025 just to get all the basic 2006scape stuff.

>>387836396
>Runescape when there's nothing old school about it?
Oh I didn't know they removed all old school content, silly me.

Leaving a game as it was in 2006 and not updating ever is retarded you mong, people would stop playing shortly after starting because THERE'S NOTHING TO DO AFTER A WHILE. Are you stupid? Did you think people 10 years ago also didn't want any new updates ever? Fuck me you are dumb.

>>387836397
Has about 20-50 active players which is perfect community size for an RSPS. Keeps the economy good and you can almost always get advise from others. The whole oldfag circle jerk is a meme 99% of oldfags are helpful and willing to trade stuff they no longer need

>>387836506
I would prefer less often well done quests than retarded custom content.

>>387834875
He never said anything about the skills transitioning into the "real world".

>>387836336
Most RPGs suffer from having the same shitty sidequests as most other MMOs. Runescape has good quests because they give decent rewards, they have somewhat fleshed-out characters and stories and they sometimes throw puzzles and other things to stop it from just being a "collect x items" or "kill y enemies" quests. There's also no main quest in Runescape so the player is pretty much free to complete the quests in whatever order they like and each player truly has a unique experience. The rest of the game is pretty dull but questing is the one thing that Runescape does well.

>>387835651
All the admins are great besides one who is arguably not but he pays the server costs so it doesn't matter. All the active mods fix bugs quickly and do it all for free in their free time. I've played on 10+ RSPS and /v/scape is by far the best done. There is a recent it has been active for 3 years and still going.

>>387836616
Ever see that South Park episode about re-releasing ET and Indiana Jones and everything
If I wanted to play Runescape with new content, I'd play RS3. Not this "old school" bullshit

>>387836679
>Has about 20-50 active players which is perfect community size for an RSPS
Hell no, you barely even meet other players outside of fucking pest control, and this is supposed to be an MMORPG. If you wanted that experience then just play on an unpopulated server
>I would prefer less often well done quests than retarded custom content.
Well done quests like the amazing slug series? Or sheep shearer? Or One Small Favour? Or everyone's favourite, Mourning's End Part 2! That's all you're getting, pre-2007 quests were mostly tedious.

You keep saying the new content is bad but you have not explained why.

>>387837028
Good job ignoring everything I said. Again, explain how people would play for long if there was no updates, i.e: nothing to do anymore after a while? Are you retarded?

vscape also is only RSPS with well done holiday events.

You always find other players since skills have certain spots for max efficiency yet it is still sparse enough you don't fight over resources.

So you're saying you'd play a game with no updates? Yeah right, you'd get bored of it eventually because there's a point where there's nothing to do anymore.
>People will also stop playing games that also get shitty updates
Good thing the wilderness is still there then, and it's getting tons of updates that make it more worthwhile than it was in 2006 like BP rewards.

>Latent will never read you to sleep with Bible verses

>>387837495

Bullshit, osrs actually has pvp related content. PVP is the deadest thing ever in RS3, NOBODY even goes to pk in the wilderness anymore outside of warbands which is once every 7 hours and last for 10 minutes.

>>387837754
Vscape has active PvP and a clan of Estonians who rule it. We literally had a huge pvp competition yesterday. OSRS has nothing near that

inb4 the meme that is DMM

>>387837575
You never played a game to beat it with 100% completion?
Not every game is meant to be played forever and ever with no end. What are they going to do in 10 years? Release Old School Runescape 2?

>>387837495
>Have you seen any of the new osrs content?
Not only is the new content better than RS3's but OSRS also has hundreds and hundreds of QoL updates that RS3's staff is too incompetent and out of touch to implement. OSRS also makes skills useful like construction whereas in RS3 it's completely fucking useless outside of some quest requirements.

If you want a good RSPS, try ScapeRune

>tfw you used to bully kids in elementary for playing runescape

Pfft, yeah sure, the wilderness in osrs has more people pvping at any point in any world than the entire population of your private server.
>>387837836
>You never played a game to beat it with 100% completion?
Yeah, what else is there to do after that? Nothing. That's what an update-less Runescape would be, people would get bored if there was nothing to do, why in the fuck would you want that for your game? It's not like Runescape is exactly replayable, unless you count ironman which is hilariously a feature that /v/scape added despite admins saying they'd never put in non-2006scape content, the hypocrites.

are you saying that's a valid justification for the quest being a boring slog of almost nothing but waiting? what the fuck is wrong with you? why wouldn't enjoyability come first instead of "use a boring skill the way it actually works"?

seriously what's wrong with you?
>How can you claim to play Runescape and then complain about tedious tasks like that?
Oh fuck off, grinding for skills shouldn't affect QUESTS, that's the whole point of them, to break the monotony, why the fuck would you implement the bad parts of your game into them?

Also, regular farming is better than the one you do in Garden of Tranquility because you can actually pay NPCs to take over your crops so that they don't die, but not in this quest, so your bullshit about "actually using the skill" is moot, not that it'd be valid otherwise, that's horseshit.

Fighting games are garbage for me because I interact with my opponents the same way I would over runescape, in that they are all online. Playing runescape when your friends are over is autistic, but since that's what you immediately went with I can only presume you and your friends are.

One thing I appreciated about its design was how almost all of the asshats you're doing small favors for are far removed from teleports, which means that even somebody with fairy rings and every tablet imaginable has got to put some effort into walking to the next asshat.
It's kind of humbling.
