RuneScape: Dragonwilds — Ashenfall tells a better story than its hero

By Yasmine

Dragonwilds is not RuneScape's grand narrative RPG, and it rarely tries to become one. Its success comes from Ashenfall: a continent whose regions, music, quests and humour extend Gielinor without surviving entirely on nostalgia. Kuldra's saga can lack dramatic force, but its 1.0 conclusion finally gives this first story a complete shape.

PROS

Ashenfall develops an identity beyond RuneScape references
Narrative remains accessible to newcomers
Humour, creatures and music preserve meaningful franchise continuity

CONS

Relatively light central plot
Few characters receive substantial dramatic development
