It's a very solo friendly MMO. Private servers are usually for people who want changes to the official game (or removal of changes), and sometimes just to avoid paying subscription fees. This one is aiming to replicate the official state of the game as it was in 2009. It's mostly a "grind" sort of game with simplistic combat. It's pretty relaxing for the most part, though it does have some tense PvP elements if you enter into some special areas. You can definitely play it fully focused, but most people would conside it a "Second Monitor" game. i.e. You can watch YouTube or do work and keep old-school RuneScape active on a second screen, interacting every minute or so.
