Hello and good day to you all. I just want to ask, how many hours is the ideal limit for me to play RuneScape everyday? I have a 9 to 5 job, and would just want your opinion as to how any hours I should play RS3 and have fun with it. Thank you!

Only you can answer that question.

It depends on many things, including how tired you are after work, how busy your social life is, what family commitments you have, and so on.

Secondarily, it may also be affected by how quickly you want to achieve your in-game goals (and thus by your degree of patience and/or obsessiveness), and whether you put playing a game above real life in terms of importance.

So u work 8 hours.
You should sleep 8 hours
That leaves you 8 hours.
Do you travel to work.
Take that off
Do you eat? Take that off.
Say that leaves you 6 hours.
Then you need to wash that leaves u 5 hours.
Do you shop Do house work? That leaves u 3 hours.
Do you have friends?
That leaves you no hours.
So the correct answer is 0 hours.

I work more than 8 hours a day, but almost exclusively on computers. That's why RS3 is so great, when I can work on my technical stuffs on one screen while AFKing for all kinds of RS3 progression on other screens.

This game is very flexible. I feel like there's enough to do for everyone, regardless of how casual you are in the game or how much you get to play. You just have to find what you enjoy doing. There's no real answer for this type of question because you get to make your own journey in the game. :) This is just a placeholder.

My play time’s varied a lot over the years, dependent on work, school/university, life in general.

Like others mention, I think go for what you feel comfortable with - and as long as you enjoy it.

I sometimes have 12hr working days and only get a small window to play. Whilst some days are more flexible. I go for passive tasks on busier days and usually save the longer stuff (quests, new content) during weekends.

that is entirely subjective to you.

if you like playing 1 hour a day then 1 hour a day it is. if you prefer to get 30 mins in before you leave work. then play on mobile on lunch break. then when you get home play asp from being home till you sleep. then enjoy that.

its completely up to you.
