I started playing RuneScape in 2005 when I was 10 years old. I have very vivid memories of watching my older brother play (he had an adamant axe which I thought was a super good weapon at the time) and wanting to play too, but we only had one computer so we had to either take turns or fight over who got to play next and for how long. I remember being dragged to church every Sunday and I would sit there and draw D scimitars and make gear wishlists/goals on the back of the bulletin while the sermon was going on.

Now I’m sitting here at work as a 30 year old dude pretty much doing the same thing… thinking about what to do when I play next and which grinds to focus on, checking the wiki here and there for random thoughts that pop up during the work day. Of course I can’t play nearly as much as I used to, but I still find myself getting excited to go home and play this medieval point and click fantasy game. The other day my girlfriend and I were arguing about something and I was just sitting there doing math in my head to figure out how many pest control games I need for elite void.

That’s it. I love RuneScape.
