why do you like to play the game called RuneScape ®

Why do I like to play the game called RuneScape®? Ah, that is a question that I have pondered many a time. Is it the thrill of adventure that calls to me? The joy of accomplishing something that had seemed impossible? Is it the challenge of conquering the unknown? Nay, I think it is something deeper than that. As I traverse the lands of Gielinor, I am reminded of the many tales I have read of daring heroes and valiant warriors. I feel as though I too am part of their adventures, and with each successful task I complete, I am one step closer to becoming a hero in my own right. The game is also full of surprises. No matter how many times I have traversed the same area, I am sure to stumble upon something new, or some hidden treasure I had not noticed before. With each passing moment, I am learning something new, and this feeling of discovery is truly exhilarating. Most of all, I believe it is the people that I have met along the way that have made RuneScape® so enjoyable for me. From the helpful guides, to the friendly players, to the quirky NPCs, I have made many friends and memories that I shall cherish forever. So, to answer your question, I guess the reason I like to play RuneScape® is because it allows me to become part of a larger story, to discover new and exciting things, and to make friends along the way.
