Easter Eggs-periments – Holiday Mini-Quest
gargoyles are now even more of a joke before it was like shooting fish in a barrel, now it's like putting those fish into a blender

Easter Eggs-periments – Holiday Mini-Quest
I'm mostly annoyed at not getting the wintumber tree because i wasn't a member at the time, but otherwise it's basically how it's always been

Dimension of Disaster – 200th Quest
I just found out right now that if you summon the spirit in the bar and THEN beat up Johnny, beating up Johnny counts as the spirit's requirement and takes out both steps at one time (two birds, one arm). The accompanying text box even refers to him by name. btw, the new stuff is in now

I wish they had given an option to recolor the pet by using an egg on it... the pure eggs seem completely unnecessary otherwise also jagex wasted a completely good opportunity to make several hundred jurassic park jokes

The New Runescape Client ~ NXT (a C++ Client) - Developer Blog
their earlier excuse for not having a standalone client was that they didn't want to give anybody an unfair advantage, but frankly we're kind of past that point considering that people still lag anyway

That's not necessarily a bad thing. It was a bit too oversaturated before, and the more subtle look is pretty beautiful. more importantly, we'll finally be able to color balance our outfits i mean ffs i keep turning orange whenever i go to freneskae

incidentally, since a prior release changed the BA deposit box into a chest, fishing urns are now selling for 5k each

Update Size vs Frequency
people hold off on playing content because content at release is often a hazardous or overcrowded place, jagex also, because they're busy training a lot it feels like they've been cutting a lot of corners lately to deliver what appears to be bigger things but are just repainted old things just to give the impression that they're maintaining productivity when they're trying to cover for not having anybody with a clear path of progression in mind working on their content. everything they do seems to just be buying more time in the hopes that they'll strike a miracle by sheer chance (that being renewed interest in the new content that amounts to writing fanfics as a continuation of where the lore ended with the people originally in charge) and they won't have to admit that all of the people who had the spark for inspiration are mostly gone and that they're coasting on their legacy. or, as i put it, the console version of terraria

there may not be money in the sink, but at least it isn't blood

Note: you can just hand the urn directly to Ernie instead of teleporting it, if you don't want to screw it up.

Invention Discussion
there can also be a tie in with factions strongly desiring some of these newer invention products to get a leg up on the competition

Invention Discussion
To me, ideally Invention would be kind of like a catch all like dungeoneering, but instead of constantly discouraging people from playing it until they're maxed, low level invention items should be things that are very useful for low level players that are the culmination of low level skill/combat training, and as they level up, they can take these useful items and continuously upgrade them until they're hulking monsters of/extremely efficient tools that grow with their user. You would feed these tools excess items from training other skills to hone their characteristics/increase the growth cap, and you would get perks from using those things over time as your understanding of how to make it better or use it more effectively grows with experience. It would be a combination of things you wouldn't be able to trade because they're customized for your use, and consumables which create weird new ways of doing things. As it is, such a system would not necessarily require an actual skill, since you could just track growth by the items you make instead, sort of like how the PoH aquarium isn't necessarily a skill in of itself, but a thing that grows like a skill.

I assume that if people tie in points, they're gonna go by total time spent in the quests. However, if they really wanted it to make sense, they'd force everybody to start a new account, and add another designation in the hardcore menu for the competition. I'd allow signups in advance and then make it so that those accounts can't log in until the competition starts.

Ports - Guardians of the World
the crafting menu's hilariously wrong, i got like about 35k base exp from the mainhand wand which was then multiplied by my bonus exp but i don't have the exact number because my game lagged at that point and it flickered away in half a second

wgs is mostly long because of that one stupid tunnel segment followed by the even stupider tunnel segment with the druid ghosts that would force you to go back to the bank to get stuff and then come back if they just so happened to ask for something that you might accidentally drop or not even be there "content"
