Honest (I know everyone who reads this is gunna be in utter shock) I've played WoW and I've played runescape and hands down without fail Runescape beats WoW any of the week.yes I have clearly stated that Runescape is BETTER then WoWdespite having better graphics and gameplay x.x that isn't all there is to a game but if you measure effort need against fun obtained you realize runescape beats WoW - also runescape is the trainning grounds for new MMO players - WoW's got nothing on that. WoW's graphics also aren't really that great either when compared to similiar (but less popular) games in its class.

During my younger years, I was a Runescape addict. However, I'd like to back up my addiction by saying that even though the game has "dem crappeh graficks," as according to other people, it was immersive in gameplay. Quests weren't the kill & fetch type, you actually had to travel, puzzle solve, and face somewhat to extremely challenging bosses. It also harbored an amazing amount of skills and Jagex, the developers, had weekly updates. That being said, it has recently taken a downturn, as evidenced by my noob of a complaining cousin who still thinks I give a hoot about the game. I tried WoW out for a few days, the real not trial version, and was put off by it. I don't know why, maybe because the quests sucked. Graphics don't make games people, the gameplay does.

I prefer Runescape over WoW for the main fact that I have never played WoW. Then again, I haven't played Runescape in years, so I don't really care for either one at this point.

WoW ftw. You can choose races, and play online with people WITH VOICECHAT! Runescape seems boring and generic.

WOW is better. More streamlined for the casual player yet deep enough for the addicts. Unfortunately, once you get to high level the casuals get a little sidelined. You can't do the really fun stuff and get the good loot unless you are willing to sink an enormous amount of time into it. That is why I quit playing.

I've never played WOW, but I want to now! the problem with runescape is that even if you become a member, it's still boring-there's never anything to do! Even thought Wow is more expensive, i reckon it'd probably be worth it!

I played both, but I'd go for RS over WoW, simply because in WoW it takes far too long to get far enough in the game to actually do something hard and worth it, other than some boring quests. With other words, a bit too much grinding for lvls imho. In RS you have to grind too ofc, but it goes ways faster than in WoW. And ofc, you can choose if you want to pay for RS or not.

I never made an attempt to try runescape it just seemed to cheesy to me so I stuck with WoW. I might try runescape but the way I see it is you get what you pay for

Runescape is way better, not only does it let you chat with people across the world but the fact is that you can do more things on it adn with your friends even if they are half way across the world.

Ok...let me think.....In both games you need to pay to have fun. WOW is better in every aspect. This is not even a contest.

ive played both, although WoW has better graphics and quest style format it is not simple for a noob to find the required quests cuz they is little help from the map systems and is also let down by the fact you have to by it monthly which prevents certain people playing it anyway. On Runescape however the graphics are poorer but questing is easy and anyone can play for free to experience it long term and if you wanted added bonuses you could buy membership for a very reasonable price ^.^

i never played world of warcraft and i played runescape for around 5 years because its in my oppinion the only MMORPG with some decent content other than just fighting and kill X quests. I quited around 6months ago because those guys who develop the game keep making louzy updates and theres no real chalenges left for me.

I've played WoW for about 4 years, Runescape for about 4 hours. After burnin a bunch of cow meat on a campfire I gave up on RS. But my favorite MMO right now is Warhammer online, and I am looking forward to the new 40K MMO

WoW is def. a lot better than Runescape.I think of Runescape as a poor man's game 
lol. Because you have to pay monthly for WoW, but I think it's kind of worth it with it being one of the best MMORPGs out there. But you can't go wrong playing Runescape for free, I just can't play runescape at all though.
