Why do most people think runescape is better then WoW

Answer: Runescape has a more relaxing game play and still challenging. In my person opinion ists easyer to keep in contact with friends over runescape. and also some people that play Runescape post videos on youtube witch can come to internet fame.

World of warcraft on the other hand is a grinding game where all you do is fight to gain levels alot of people find that kind of boring.

Both Games are really good, Iv played them both, and in my opinion
if your looking for a game that has relaxing gameplay and more stuttle then runescape is the way to go.

but if your into more action game with cool FXs then WOW is for you
Answer: Do they really, now? How many people did you ask? Also, if you ask on a RuneScape forum, people will naturally tend to prefer RuneScape, so to get accurate statistics, you should also be careful who you ask.
