I have personally played both games, I played Runescape when I was about 13 and I was a member and got very good, but it got repetitive and boring, so one summer me and a friend played wow, and it was an awesome game but 15 bucks is pretty expensive to pay every month, so I usually play wow during the summer when I can play it a lot and get my money’s worth. If you can afford it I would definitely recommend wow, but if you can’t then Runescape is a good game.
