It's fascinating to examine my various playstyles that I've participated in over the years. From tackling boss runs to running in a clan of roleplayers or attempting to master a skill in order to achieve the task with RS Gold.
It's now my preference to play slowlyand avoid using anything that might boost my XP base, so I can enjoy my long trek to level up. I read a lot while doing this - it's surprisingly tranquil to have the click of my mattock or pickaxe to be a background noise.
What draws me back to RuneScape is that it is like a living being, constantly changing with new challenges and locations. Then there are the abilities in the interwoven tapestries that bring the different aspects of gameplay together, and allow me to play from creating runestones to finding dinosaurs. My personal favourite is Archaeology because of the way it combines lore-based exploration with great skill development.
On the subject of RuneScape lore - never forget the quest lines. In this game, I've experienced gothic terror in epic fantasy as well as one man's dream of baking a cake. I'll never forget those hours that I was in the Temple of Light, even if I sometimes wish I could. There's also Old School RuneScape through which I can go back in time to the game I fell in love with.
I've had breaks, mostly while playing an exciting game from RuneScape throughout the many years. The longest time was when Evolution of Combat (also known as EoC) was released. the capabilities and action bars were at war with the RuneScape section of my brain.
RuneScape, however, always comes up with a way to trap me. This time I was snared by the Legacy Combat Mode, which revived the tick-based combat of old. EoC and I still have quite a turbulent relationship, mostly due to reluctance on my part, though I'm trying. Rarely.
My diaries are still filled with notes regarding my latest RuneScape achievements, specifically when I get a new animal that has a skill, but it has to share the space with little reflections on the Indie games I've played. I also share debating my absence of Log Stool DIY recipes in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. I'm working on a list of what I'd like to accomplish in RuneScape in the next year.
I would like to improve my Dungeoneering skills (unlikely) and renovate my money pit of a house with Buy OSRS Account. Maybe I'll get around to doing that Salt in the Wound quest at one point I was awestruck by this quest, but then a friend told me about an pillar in particular - if you know, you know. Since that day I've never worked up the energy to complete it, but perhaps 2022 could be the year.
