Step 1: Stop playing runescape.

It's really a personal preference and what kind of games are you wanting to make? If you are making an FPS game, then FPSC would be your best bet.
Otherwise, learn dark basic or some other language and make your own engine.

Or look for one online. Google is your friend.

If you're prepared for some programming, Dark Basic Pro is my recommendation. If you want 2D, commercial liscence for Games Factory 2 might be good. As said 3D Rad is another engine, but that seems weird to me, most engines require programming I'm afraid.

My advice is DON'T go with 3drad unless you want point and click. The engine was bought out a few years ago by 3Impact and they are now doing away with the old scripting versions of Rad. It's now becoming a completely or nearly point and click tool. It's disapointing, 3drad was a very friendly dev-tool not counting it's bugs and inadequacies. It had great potential.
