3s hello everyone I'm mod Aisa you may
7s remember me from the how will polyneu
9s skill and working with players to design
11s a new skill videos today I'd like to
14s talk you through the next steps in our
15s journey to adding a new skill to old
17s school RuneScape the purpose of this
19s video is to inform you about what you
20s can expect when it comes to reading the
22s blog in a few days time or if you're
24s watching this in the future to explain
26s how we're going to move forward from our
27s skill pitches blog so first of all let's
30s recap on where we are in the process
32s right now in December we asked whether
34s you wanted a new skill added to the game
36s and over 80 percent of you said yes
38s knowing that the overwhelming majority
40s wanted a new skill we ran a special poll
43s and Survey to help us understand what
45s type of new skill you want to see added
48s since then we've been working on top
50s level Concepts it's now late March and
52s we are so excited to share them with you
54s and we are so close we're now entering
57s the pitching stage which is where we'll
59s begin sharing a variety of new skill
62s Concepts based on your responses during
65s Community consultation as we mentioned
67s previously it's important to offer you
69s multiple designs rather than just one so
71s we'll need you to help us decide which
74s one we should take further now the skill
76s pitches blog is expected to launch on
78s the 27th of March so it really isn't
81s that long to wait you'll also see the
83s new skill Discord server become active
84s during this period as we start to use it
87s for direct feedback now remember the
89s pitches are top level concepts for what
91s the skills are and they won't include
93s intricate details like experience rates
95s or fleshed out rewards at the end of the
98s day we want to work with you during
99s refinement and Beyond to lock those
101s details in and we'll talk about how
103s we'll handle refinement in Greater
105s detail once we know what skill it is
107s that you've chosen to go forward a poll
109s will open in early April where you get
111s to decide which one concept we take
113s forward into the next stage and that's
115s where we'll start working with you to
117s refine some of the important details
118s necessary for us to be able to move into
120s the locking in stage now we know that
122s there is potential for you to like just
124s one or even all of the pitches we have
125s on offer and so we don't feel like we
127s can approach the refinement stage with a
128s simple yes no poll question instead
131s we're going to ask which skills you'd be
133s happy to see refined further and which
135s pitch was your favorite
137s from here we'll then use your votes to
139s determine which is the most popular
141s skill pitch and that's the one that will
143s then make it into refinement it's
145s important to remember that nothing is
147s locked in at this stage we can still go
149s back in the process if you feel that we
151s need to once a skill has been decided
153s for refinement we'll then be left with
155s the biggest question of them all should
157s it be added to the game
159s this will be the final stage of the
161s process and with it we'll come a poll
163s before the skill gets added and that's
165s where you can expect to see the typical
166s yes no options that you're used to
168s requiring a majority of at least 70 yes
171s votes in order to pass now is old school
174s runescape's first and only skill
177s you've certainly ignited conversations
179s all across socials about this question
180s but the truth is we don't know yet but
184s we do want to assure everyone that this
186s is not an All or Nothing vote there's
189s absolutely no reason why we can't poll
191s more skills in the future if that's what
193s the community wants so please don't let
196s this mentality influence your vote your
198s favorite skill might not make it this
200s round but that's not to say we won't be
202s able to develop it in the later on top
204s of that we'll do all we can to avoid
206s getting stuck in development limbo we
208s really want to avoid saying no to any
210s more skills and we hope you don't feel
212s the need to vote against a good idea out
214s of a fear that your favorite concept
216s won't ever make its way into Old School
217s we're all passionate Gamers here and
220s everyone especially people watching this
222s video understand how important something
224s like a new skill is so it's equally
226s important that we get this right and
228s people are going to have their favorites
229s and that's absolutely okay but let's try
232s our best to keep an open mind with all
234s that said I guess it's time to round off
236s by saying thank thank you for all your
238s responses during Community consultation
240s we asked and you certainly delivered
242s especially on our survey we had over 44
246s 000 responses to the survey alone with
249s over a hundred and thirty thousand votes
251s on our poll we know this takes up your
253s valuable time but we promised that it
255s was no XP waste with such an amazing
258s Community behind us and an awesome team
260s of skilled and passionate developers we
262s feel safe knowing that the direction the
264s new skill is in will be in great hands
266s so a huge thank you for your
268s participation so far and we're really
270s looking forward to working with you even
271s further you can look forward to a whole
273s bunch of events including q and A's
275s discussions directly with developers in
277s our new skilled Discord server amas and
280s more over the next few weeks and Beyond
281s but most importantly make sure to check
284s out the blog on the 27th of March and
286s I'll see you in the next video
