The game also features hundreds of quests to take players on journeys and adventures throughout the world.<br \/>\nHaving played \u201cRunescape\u201d for over ten years on and off, I can fully recommend playing. Even in college, chopping some trees after class is a great way to wind down.<br \/>\nWhile Runescape\u2019s playerbase has significantly decreased over the years, updates are still being made and new players are joining all the time.<\/p>\n<p>Editor\u2019s Disparagement<\/p>\n<p>The new DC comics show \u201cPowerless\u201d on NBC has a lot of potential. Set in the DC Universe, \u201cPowerless\u201d follows the powerless employees of Wayne Security in Charm City.<br \/>\nThe premiere was nothing but a tacky workplace comedy. With cheap jokes and poor performances, \u201cPowerless\u201d makes terrible use of its star studded cast, which includes Alan Tudyk, Vanessa Hudgens and Danny Pudi.<br \/>\nWith every bad joke the show also threw in the name \u201cBruce Wayne\u201d or \u201cBatman.\u201d Fully aware that the DC aspect is the only selling point, \u201cPowerless\u201d drowns viewers in poorly timed references.<br \/>\nOnly the premiere has aired, but if the show doesn\u2019t improve greatly, it\u2019ll get cancelled in no time. For those curious about watching it, I\u2019d say it\u2019s a complete waste of time at this point.<\/p>\n<p>Contact the author at journalentertainment@wou.edu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Ashton Newton Entertainment Editor Editor\u2019s Recommendations \u201cRunescape\u201d is a special kind of game.
