Woo, Welcome to the new year. I have a little thing i want to try, and that is to try writing some reviews. Sure, i might fuck up, but bear with me and post some Comments and Criticism.

Runescape. The last game anyone wants to be caught playing. Everyone gives it a bad rep due to the idiots that rampage around its servers, and the horrible graphics it has. Well, i hope to give it another chance. Every new years, i have a little tradition. I've gone on, and had a little new years party at one of the taverns. I drop a ton of gold and let everyone go wild. Ive done this tradition since 2001, thing is, i haven't played Runescape regularly since 2005. Last night, i log on, not to the horrible eyesore it once was, but to something different. The graphics were apparently majorly overhauled. They look great, and now im actually playing it so much, i spent all day, since 8 AM this morning, to a couple of minutes ago.

Since im getting tired of this, ill wrap this up and break this up into parts.

So, Graphics on a scale of 1-10. Formerly 1-2. Now 6. Go check it out, and stay tuned.

Tomorrow: Quests

Forgot to mention. Hit me up if you play. my nickname is Dadud3.
Runescape has an especially dark place in everyone's heart here at Destructoid. Be prepared for the negative comments. And your rating system is very strange.
Tits or GTFO.
even if it had magic unicorns i still wouldn't play it, too much fuckin 12 years old.
Sorry man, this is way to short to be called a review... there's not even any screenshots of this new beauty you describe... work on it before you post some random crap ;-)

sorry mate, my fist comment might have been a bit too harsh.

but the points are still valid :-)

-You've been playing all day, so why not take some screenshots of it? ( just go <alt>+<prtScr> and add a funny caption in paint ) it'll entice us more to give it a try, you could even have made a comparison between the "old" gfx and the new "gfx" by putting the screenshots next to eachother

- Also no mentioning of it being free to play, which is something I can imagine some people to be intrested in :-) Especially with the financial crisis going on...

- The idea of breaking up a review over multiple days also doesn't sound like a great idea to me, You'll probably loose half of the interested people after your first story ( this one ) and the rest after the second one, especially if you don't add any screens/vids etc just write it in notepad at first, and then post it here when it's all done, so we have 1 decent text to read and not several pieces of information that we have to scour the clogs for :-)

so hope these comments help you out a bit more then my little rant above ( sorry was early in the morning ) :-) and I'll hope to be able to read an improved version of this in a few days ;-) ( send me a pm when you do rewrite it and I'll be sure to give you my review of your review :-D)
Runescape? more like RUN, ESCAPE!!!! AMIRITE? Yeah, I'm right.
Yeah seriously dude, this needs bulking out. You talk about graphics but have no screens, what gives? Also never apologise in a blog post, it shows a massive lack of confindence in your writing. Why should I read this blog if even the writer doesn't believe in it!
Ah RuneScape. I have some fond memories. It was very much my introduction to the online community, where I learned a lot of web lingo.

I consider it a very good my-first-mmo.
It's not a good my first mmo when some doesn't stop playing it.
I have a friend who has basically played constantly for the past three years and shows no sign of stopping.
NOOOOOO!
PS: another pro-tip, if you ask people for their opinions, make sure to check your own blog once in a while to reply to them...

PPS: its also not good if a reply is longer then the blog you posted yourself ;-)
