| 1s | everyone and welcome to a very special |
|---|---|
| 3s | old school livestream why is a special |
| 6s | mode learning well today we are going to |
| 8s | be talking to you about some of the |
| 9s | Isles and thriftless ooh exciting so |
| 13s | today we have the song of the elves |
| 15s | development team here on the sofa so |
| 18s | first of all friend doesn't know me I am |
| 20s | Maude Edie and oh hello someone's coming |
| 22s | in and I am a Content developer and I am |
| 25s | the project lead on song of the elves |
| 28s | I'm also joined by mod G character |
| 32s | artist song of the elves but Lenny |
| 35s | another Content developer on song the |
| 36s | elves what ghost I'm also an artist and |
| 40s | mod West environment artist do you see |
| 43s | what I did there but let you guys say |
| 45s | your names I can't mess it up we're |
| 48s | gonna do for the rest of the stream so |
| 52s | for anyone who doesn't know some of the |
| 54s | elves is a big sort of project we pulled |
| 56s | it back in March I think it was and it |
| 60s | passed with something like 94 95 percent |
| 63s | or something so apparently you guys want |
| 64s | it and today we're gonna be giving you |
| 66s | lots of little sneak peek so I mean a |
| 68s | few big sneak peeks as well as to what |
| 70s | we've been up to because we've been |
| 71s | working on it for the pastor past few |
| 73s | months and I think like when everyone |
| 76s | else I haven't been on the stream in |
| 77s | like six months or something I think so |
| 79s | you guys are pretty similar we've all |
| 80s | been hiding away while the rest of our |
| 81s | team has been subtly talking about all |
| 83s | the various objects they've been doing |
| 85s | is our turn we're gonna show off what |
| 87s | we've been up to |
| 87s | so song of the elves is the Grand Master |
| 90s | finale to the elf storyline just in case |
| 92s | anyone wasn't aware and as mentioned by |
| 95s | mod Lenny |
| 96s | it will unlock access to the crystal |
| 98s | city of prettiness yes ed finally came |
| 105s | out of Exile so oddly enough we're not |
| 109s | going to spoil too much out the quest |
| 110s | itself like we'd like to keep the story |
| 113s | secret but we are going to show off a |
| 114s | few little sneak peeks but then after |
| 116s | that we'll move on to talking about the |
| 117s | city itself we're going to talk a bit |
| 119s | about the gauntlet one of the exciting |
| 121s | new pieces of content in verse City |
| 122s | we're going to talk about sarkar no |
| 124s | another exciting piece of Kronik Missa |
| 125s | tee we're going to have a little music |
| 127s | reveal from our friends in the audio |
| 130s | department will be joining us a little |
| 132s | bit later |
| 133s | then we might have it some time at the |
| 135s | end to answer some questions so we've |
| 136s | got any questions throwing the chat |
| 138s | we've got a mod gambit keeping an eye on |
| 139s | things so do feel free to send him |
| 141s | anything you want to want to ask us and |
| 144s | providing it's not too vulgar |
| 145s | we might even ask it so before we get |
| 148s | started |
| 149s | also one thing I should do as a shout |
| 150s | out a madre and mod curse or the other |
| 153s | two members of vs on real scene but |
| 154s | sadly couldn't be with us today |
| 156s | should we get started - yeah I feel like |
| 164s | we would probably be some bit sadder |
| 165s | about that so yeah here today so let's |
| 173s | talk about the quest I think we have |
| 175s | some stuff to show off do we because as |
| 177s | much as I know you guys will love |
| 178s | looking my pretty face I've actually got |
| 179s | some things to show off as well so |
| 181s | should we have a look at what we've got |
| 182s | have we done some work apparently |
| 185s | so look at that first of all it has a |
| 187s | title it's called song of the elves |
| 190s | believe it or not and hopefully the |
| 191s | clicker works so song of the elves as |
| 197s | the name suggests it's about elves an |
| 199s | infinity elf storyline as a finale |
| 201s | there's gonna be a few battles so a lot |
| 203s | of previous quests in this series as a |
| 205s | lot people remember involved lots of |
| 207s | cursing agility obstacles and that sort |
| 209s | of thing in this one there's gonna be |
| 211s | more of that don't worry but there's |
| 212s | also going to be a few battles and |
| 214s | battles and these soldiers so what we |
| 215s | have here is a couple of the rebel |
| 218s | warriors so mangy talk to us a bit about |
| 221s | these were your designs weren't they |
| 223s | I made some rebel warriors I'm I |
| 228s | actually approached a lot of like the |
| 230s | elf designs both within 15s and sort of |
| 233s | in the expanding areas battles etc quite |
| 235s | procedurally so this is just some of the |
| 239s | many combinations that you could see if |
| 241s | the rebel elves there's like a few |
| 243s | different pieces and they mix and match |
| 244s | to create like a lot of different |
| 245s | variations and they have various |
| 247s | recolors available to make it really |
| 249s | feel like the world is super populated |
| 251s | which is very exciting |
| 253s | so as you play for requests you'll be |
| 255s | seeing a these guys in action you'll be |
| 257s | fighting alongside women hopefully |
| 259s | winning as you fight against via evil |
| 261s | Iowa elves or for some of them you're |
| 263s | probably just space barring through as |
| 265s | fast as you can so you can get to force |
| 266s | it |
| 266s | shame on you guys shame on you alongside |
| 270s | our our new rebel warriors we've got |
| 273s | some Iowa warriors that's mentioned |
| 276s | because of guys you're gonna be fighting |
| 277s | against so here's what his what they |
| 281s | look like |
| 281s | again Maji you design reasons as well |
| 283s | didn't ya anything to comment on those |
| 285s | guys and I had to be honest I had a lot |
| 288s | more fun designing these guys because I |
| 290s | sort of took a few liberties and went |
| 292s | quite but just more fun our guys are so |
| 296s | fun live guys always more fun but not |
| 298s | we've actually bad guys no one's a bad |
| 300s | guys just different opinions and all |
| 302s | that yeah none of that guys |
| 304s | whoever's whoever's point of view you |
| 306s | learn from so I took into account like a |
| 309s | lot of color theory with these guys I |
| 311s | wanted to make their skin a bit |
| 313s | different almost sort of you know Night |
| 317s | Elf a fish might tell it might tell fish |
| 320s | Wow and to make them feel sort of a bit |
| 324s | like other indifferent and loaded darker |
| 327s | colors yeah had a good time as you can |
| 338s | see exactly what we're doing what else |
| 342s | have we got |
| 343s | also I have no idea what happens as I |
| 344s | click this I haven't actually seen the |
| 346s | slide show so this is as much surprise |
| 347s | music as to you guys I'm actually having |
| 349s | a really fun time myself seeing all this |
| 350s | stuff so we've also got this EP unique |
| 356s | characters in this quest and this one is |
| 358s | a ill Fein I think it is isn't it so |
| 361s | you've got the chat never look at the |
| 372s | chat so on the left you can see her her |
| 376s | old model the one she's currently going |
| 377s | game on the far right you can see what |
| 379s | she looks like in runescape and then in |
| 380s | the middle is what she's gonna look like |
| 382s | in the quest and I feel that was a very |
| 385s | sort of a recurring theme here where I |
| 386s | go mod G because this one once again was |
| 389s | what G may notice emoji has done all the |
| 391s | elves |
| 392s | you want to talk about myself that |
| 393s | you've done so this is another elf that |
| 395s | I made made all the elves actually it's |
| 397s | a bit of spoiler so what I did was |
| 401s | completely ignored the RS 3 version and |
| 405s | then tried to take the 2002 version and |
| 408s | then make it so that it fit with the |
| 411s | rest of the elves and that are being |
| 413s | introduced in this new quest and in this |
| 416s | new update I hope you guys like her |
| 419s | obviously it's quite difficult to update |
| 422s | existing models because a lot of people |
| 424s | are quite attached like I realized |
| 427s | through posting on Twitter and asking |
| 429s | for your opinions that a lot of people |
| 430s | have really really attached to this 2002 |
| 432s | version but I hope that I've at least |
| 435s | swung some of you across to my side and |
| 437s | others of you just like the design in |
| 439s | general say thanks and alongside Athene |
| 447s | in the quest we've got a this guy as |
| 448s | well so most of the character in song of |
| 451s | a elves with being the finale character |
| 454s | that appeared in previous question this |
| 455s | guy he's actually not so this guy is |
| 457s | called is going not Yaga waggers we tend |
| 459s | to call him in the office he's called |
| 461s | you Schoen and he does actually appear |
| 463s | in luxuries in game of a moment but he's |
| 465s | not actually really used for anything |
| 466s | but he's gonna actually be a character |
| 467s | miss quest he's one of the leaders of |
| 469s | the elven rebels alongside healthy now |
| 472s | Trin and all the others and here's |
| 474s | another new model but guess what it was |
| 477s | done by Majhi made it what do you guys |
| 481s | think of this one I really like that one |
| 483s | I've just seen that someone else thinks |
| 485s | that there are the runescape one looks |
| 486s | like Jaime Lannister oh my favorite |
| 491s | thing is still just the old-school |
| 493s | versions legs and feet they just drop a |
| 496s | fee from yeah very questionable it's |
| 499s | like he's got gout or something isn't it |
| 501s | rolling he definitely didn't miss like |
| 503s | day to day so very weird answers well |
| 507s | they picked out the old that's the thing |
| 509s | of the arms isn't it so yeah looks like |
| 512s | one of those guys you see in the gym not |
| 513s | that I go to the gym as you can tell but |
| 515s | I've seen I've seen screenshots and |
| 516s | stuff like there's some weights are they |
| 522s | do you want to talk about the arms cuz |
| 524s | you actually did something to the length |
| 525s | didn't he made them longer he did make |
| 527s | them longer oh yeah like a lot of the |
| 530s | old characters and I'll play Kip some |
| 532s | reason it's like that I don't know why |
| 535s | well it's like it's just proportions |
| 537s | isn't it so if I stand up you look at my |
| 539s | arms they're about here the normal |
| 541s | length in runescape they tend to be |
| 544s | about here |
| 545s | which is just really strange so what you |
| 547s | actually did but she actually lengthened |
| 549s | it out so things just appear to have a |
| 550s | much more natural human proportion and |
| 552s | luckily it still works a little too all |
| 554s | that animation so there's no updated |
| 556s | animations I think I've said I spoke |
| 558s | about this before but I think the |
| 559s | animations the old-school animations are |
| 562s | something that really shapes the |
| 564s | nostalgia and there's a big a big |
| 568s | element that you guys love so trying to |
| 570s | make sure that new models work with the |
| 572s | older animations is a good way of |
| 574s | combining sort of the old and the new |
| 575s | and making it blend into the world |
| 581s | well said thanks so as I mentioned we're |
| 589s | not gonna talk to attract requests but |
| 590s | here just a few sneak peek screenshots |
| 592s | of what's happening with quests so take |
| 596s | from them what you will know I could say |
| 599s | Noren gonna say much more than that |
| 600s | a few maybe a little little hints in |
| 602s | there a little bit of agility going on |
| 604s | crossing and off pressors gonna be some |
| 606s | agility |
| 607s | what's the fail rate like uh reasonable |
| 610s | and then wander there's another bit |
| 611s | that's not so much this bit so warnings |
| 615s | in part two it's gotta be the light |
| 618s | puzzle going on in it and doing song of |
| 621s | the elves I think we knew that there had |
| 623s | to be another one so what you're looking |
| 625s | at here is looking at a very early gray |
| 627s | box environment of what will become |
| 630s | probably a little bit of a nightmare for |
| 632s | you guys sorry sneak peek see I love all |
| 636s | of the depth and the floor and all the |
| 637s | details and everything you can see right |
| 638s | here just really sums up where this is |
| 642s | finished content right here so yeah |
| 644s | unsurprisingly we've not released a |
| 647s | quest yet because I still work on it |
| 648s | some stuff isn't done here's the gray |
| 650s | box but yeah you can see some lasers |
| 651s | going on I'm sure you guys are gonna |
| 652s | have fun with that like compared to the |
| 656s | monkey madness - and dragon's lair - |
| 658s | previous Grand Master Quest |
| 659s | there's still combat in this one still |
| 660s | some challenging bosses but we've tone |
| 662s | that down a bit to folks with puzzles as |
| 664s | is true to the previous elf quests so |
| 666s | yeah you've all got a lot to look |
| 667s | forward to for anyone that doesn't know |
| 669s | what great boxing is is basically work |
| 671s | in progress so don't worry that's not |
| 673s | what it's going to ship looking like |
| 674s | it's pretty quite interesting for them |
| 676s | to see that how things are designed yeah |
| 678s | and no doubt is that's why they're here |
| 681s | [Laughter] |
| 689s | so as as we mentioned earlier I'm just |
| 694s | going to skip over that though don't |
| 695s | worry |
| 695s | as I mentioned earlier some of the elves |
| 699s | it's just for quest and I'm trying to |
| 704s | talk to it I'm trying to talk to them |
| 705s | and yeah I've lost it now completely I |
| 708s | barely had it in the first place and now |
| 709s | it's gone it is all your fault let's try |
| 712s | again |
| 713s | so saga V elves is obviously the Grand |
| 716s | Master Quest Finn ITL storyline but as |
| 718s | we all know so you're gonna spacebar for |
| 719s | it it was like two guys my cherry now so |
| 721s | that you love the law you're the guys I |
| 722s | like but the recipe you probably care |
| 725s | more about the actual city itself the |
| 727s | great crystal city of proof - it's been |
| 729s | a separ in that world map since like |
| 731s | what 2004 or something like that |
| 733s | something crazy and we're finally going |
| 735s | to open it up and there it is that's |
| 738s | what it's looking like at the moment so |
| 739s | we show it off all the way back at |
| 742s | runefest i think we showed off like an |
| 745s | initial map of what we thought it might |
| 746s | look like and here's what it actually |
| 748s | does look like so I don't have anyone |
| 751s | can even remember that map but it's |
| 752s | looking a pretty close there's a few |
| 754s | things that have changed Weaver ended |
| 755s | like a good more mount the more stuff to |
| 758s | the north we've had like the mountain |
| 759s | and some more like areas that just do |
| 761s | some general skilling in yes scammer |
| 764s | obviously things are bound to change |
| 765s | like throughout development when we are |
| 767s | making assets when I entirely sure like |
| 768s | exactly how they're gonna like how big |
| 771s | they're gonna be when you just do like a |
| 772s | plan so I've seen things get pushed |
| 774s | around a little bit yeah it's a it's |
| 776s | very close to the original we |
| 777s | essentially just tried to keep all the |
| 778s | clans in the same place so it's that |
| 781s | matches ours 3 so the lore is sort of |
| 783s | still intact it's been pretty crazy |
| 785s | saying it will come together sort of |
| 787s | like turn game one day and you see all |
| 789s | these great buildings pretty much like |
| 791s | the |
| 792s | that you just saw a minute ago and then |
| 794s | going getting the next day and you |
| 795s | suddenly see this huge majestic tower in |
| 797s | front of like where you're served |
| 799s | exactly the same place and so where did |
| 802s | this come from |
| 802s | yeah so yeah Maude ride did or would be |
| 805s | like the towers and I just worked on |
| 806s | like the houses and the smaller things |
| 807s | and he also he also worked on like the |
| 809s | trees as well that you'll see later yeah |
| 811s | it's a it's come together very nicely |
| 812s | it's good to see it develop and evolve |
| 814s | over time it's got a really unique feel |
| 817s | I think because although it is a city |
| 818s | it's a very like natural environment as |
| 820s | is fitting for me else there's lots of |
| 822s | trees in there and obviously of course |
| 823s | you've got the crystal like that sooo |
| 825s | very much via the Elven thing so there's |
| 827s | like the crystal buildings but also has |
| 829s | like crystals are men in the trees and |
| 830s | stuff there's lots of a little crystal |
| 832s | things going on so it all looks well |
| 834s | really nice whom I should get a few |
| 835s | sneak peeks some more of that very soon |
| 837s | and I think as he already mentioned I've |
| 839s | got a little village to the north as |
| 840s | well like wants do a little bit well |
| 842s | building there and just because if that |
| 844s | area looks quite messy on a world map |
| 845s | when we're done finished so to put |
| 846s | something a little up there as well and |
| 848s | you go over they say the mountain |
| 849s | there's lots of like little lot of bits |
| 851s | and stuff we looked back at like sorry I |
| 854s | interrupted you no longer be able to |
| 856s | sneak around the side like you can |
| 857s | currently as well which is a bit of a |
| 859s | bit of a strange one yeah I think we |
| 862s | look back at like previous release we've |
| 864s | done like the initial release of Kerr |
| 866s | end and they even looking back to like |
| 869s | runescape we sat down with the guys who |
| 871s | made proofing runescape asked him what |
| 873s | worked them what didn't because |
| 874s | obviously unsurprisingly things have |
| 876s | worked them probably won't work for us |
| 877s | and things that didn't work for them |
| 879s | might work for us but some things that |
| 881s | would work for both of us and one thing |
| 882s | they said it was like make sure you get |
| 883s | some well building in there like have |
| 884s | some exam and text some characters talk |
| 886s | to and I think every citizen remember |
| 888s | has a unique examined text unique |
| 889s | dialogue stuff just little things like |
| 890s | that but of course don't worry there's |
| 892s | also the big shiny piece of content as |
| 894s | well for those of you who don't like |
| 896s | talking to people so the walls to proof |
| 904s | so those are like the original wall |
| 905s | serve you can currently see in game and |
| 907s | what motorize done is he has taken them |
| 910s | and given him a new coat of paint so |
| 915s | this was actually the concept art that |
| 917s | was done by a mod Zephyr sees something |
| 921s | awful it's a mouthful I have to write it |
| 923s | down on a piece of paper |
| 925s | ya know so he's very kindly done all the |
| 929s | concept art for the walls and the |
| 932s | buildings inside prayer which meant that |
| 935s | we could really explore ideas without |
| 937s | committing to doing the modeling |
| 938s | straightaway so what you can see here is |
| 941s | he's actually taken natural forms of |
| 943s | crystals and actually merged them in |
| 944s | with the natural forms of nature like |
| 946s | tree branches growing through in a very |
| 948s | wild fashion but in a fashion where it |
| 950s | feels like it's actually being contrived |
| 953s | and sung into existence by the oaths |
| 955s | it's really cool it's very good it was a |
| 958s | lot of fun working with him wasn't it so |
| 964s | these are some of the trees that we |
| 965s | discussed earlier so as you can see ma |
| 968s | dries put some crystals in place there |
| 970s | on those trees and I think maybe the |
| 973s | walls might be next |
| 974s | Oh maybe yeah there we go so that's the |
| 977s | end result that mod Wright came up with |
| 980s | so this isn't like the main gate from |
| 982s | the south this is the the gate from the |
| 984s | West |
| 985s | so yeah just be aware of where the coast |
| 987s | is which is why it looks a little |
| 987s | different to the previous picture of |
| 990s | course the walls are different as well |
| 992s | you can see some of the trees inside the |
| 995s | city as well and a few on the outside |
| 997s | where we kept the rocks the same because |
| 998s | the rocks around trending are really |
| 1000s | nice say yourself kept those to keep all |
| 1002s | consistent yeah cool yeah it's a really |
| 1007s | good job on that so this is the mine yes |
| 1010s | this is new trim various yes so for |
| 1013s | anyone not aware the elves have eight |
| 1017s | clans and each clan has like a rougher |
| 1019s | focus and the trehearne clan bear |
| 1021s | focuses mining and swifting so |
| 1023s | unsurprisingly they have a mine and his |
| 1025s | little sneak peak of it but again |
| 1027s | modernized done initially this was on |
| 1029s | the in the main city itself but it did |
| 1031s | seem a bit out of place having just a |
| 1033s | random mine in the middle of City so we |
| 1035s | moved underground and made the area just |
| 1037s | a little bit more scenic with some trees |
| 1040s | and stuff like that I don't know about |
| 1042s | you but I'm quite missing the 20 rune |
| 1044s | rocks that were discovered |
| 1048s | yeah when we were when we were clicks |
| 1050s | altering things up it may have been |
| 1051s | quite a few room rocks so we mentioned |
| 1057s | crystal muting would in their houses and |
| 1060s | buildings earlier and here's some more |
| 1061s | concert art showing that from mod hisses |
| 1066s | so yeah this really helped when I was a |
| 1067s | assembling all the buildings just to get |
| 1070s | that sort of high detail OB they're not |
| 1072s | exactly like this because they did |
| 1073s | another paint over as well but I sort of |
| 1075s | like mix the different ideas together |
| 1076s | and it turned out really well in the end |
| 1078s | yeah they look great we can see them |
| 1080s | next one it's one house no oh this is a |
| 1086s | it's made up of made up of a kit so the |
| 1088s | entire roof kids made up of like 1x1 |
| 1090s | pieces and you can arrange it in |
| 1091s | different into a pitched formation or |
| 1093s | like in a bonnet roof style and the the |
| 1096s | chimneys work as well on that way yeah I |
| 1098s | think it's I mean it's gonna be a shame |
| 1099s | because maybe people play with their |
| 1100s | roofs turned off but if you enter the |
| 1103s | city with your roofs then done ones |
| 1104s | that'd be that'd be really great I look |
| 1106s | very good looks gorgeous yeah we're |
| 1109s | really trying to appeal to those players |
| 1110s | that don't space bar food rings and |
| 1112s | don't turn there those guys can have a |
| 1113s | real good time here there for now cool |
| 1118s | yes this is the little town to the north |
| 1119s | of the city called puente --the as you |
| 1122s | can see i've sort of stumbled the the |
| 1123s | roof getting a little kit into various |
| 1125s | different buildings we got a three-story |
| 1127s | mill there and a 2-story house and into |
| 1130s | a single-story house there which placer |
| 1132s | as well see this is a just trying to |
| 1134s | build up a little bit of scenery and |
| 1135s | make it make sense because we're |
| 1137s | currently turning this just has like the |
| 1138s | city and lettera so it made sense to |
| 1141s | just add some more little small towns |
| 1143s | it's the most alike when we did sleeping |
| 1145s | we're sort of something like oh the |
| 1146s | vampires consciously talk about typing |
| 1148s | all the villages and then we realize but |
| 1150s | wait there aren't really any like like |
| 1152s | where do all the other elves live like |
| 1154s | she'll even not all in proof so and |
| 1156s | again as mentioned earlier something to |
| 1158s | fill that gap up there so nice little |
| 1160s | village for you nice little mill the |
| 1161s | people in the chat is saying it looks |
| 1163s | amazing I have to agree when I saw that |
| 1165s | I was like wow when we did the |
| 1167s | walkthrough says amazing work he did |
| 1169s | their mod West |
| 1169s | yeah it's nothing surprise myself to be |
| 1171s | on this web made it nice yeah there's |
| 1176s | good fun making like I got I did get bit |
| 1177s | carried away as well so hopefully |
| 1179s | everyone have fun like explore in the |
| 1180s | area |
| 1181s | I've thrown in summer usual pop-culture |
| 1184s | references as they as they tend to do no |
| 1187s | spoilers |
| 1187s | nice what isn't awesome there so these |
| 1192s | are the runescape clan elders aren't |
| 1196s | they yeah these are three of the |
| 1197s | runescape clan elders so from left to |
| 1201s | right we have lady Meier lady - and Lord |
| 1205s | Iowa so the reason we're showing you |
| 1207s | guys these are three characters is |
| 1210s | because we're about to show you how |
| 1211s | they're going to look in the press |
| 1214s | update and so are we starting with very |
| 1217s | much start from left to right left right |
| 1221s | looking start with lady Meier there so |
| 1224s | some of you guys have seen Lady Milo |
| 1225s | already and she's I think she's pinned |
| 1228s | on my Twitter and but we wanted to show |
| 1230s | you again because I'm I've whacked some |
| 1232s | of her concepts down and these concepts |
| 1235s | are actually done by me when I was |
| 1237s | designing Lady my list you can see that |
| 1239s | the sort of process that I would go |
| 1242s | through to design a character as you can |
| 1245s | tell she sort of made up of a few |
| 1246s | elements of each so sometimes when I |
| 1248s | design a character I'll do one drawing |
| 1250s | and I'll go yeah that's the one that I |
| 1252s | want and I'll scrap all the others or |
| 1253s | sometimes I'll go in a bit from here |
| 1255s | there from here a bit from here and sort |
| 1256s | of like bash it together and yes sort of |
| 1259s | showing the process it's lady my earlier |
| 1260s | next is Lady - yep and so as you can see |
| 1266s | with this one I just went for the top |
| 1268s | right straight up because I really like |
| 1271s | that one very different from iris from |
| 1275s | runescape what do you guys think I love |
| 1277s | it I think it's very Tilda Swinton and |
| 1279s | Doctor Strange that's great yeah and it |
| 1281s | sort of fits with the areas works it's |
| 1284s | very own agility focused yeah well there |
| 1286s | have been how's our agility but they're |
| 1288s | also the sort of spirituality sort of |
| 1291s | side of the elves as well |
| 1292s | so I thought it would be quite an |
| 1293s | interesting way to merge these by sort |
| 1296s | of saying you know she's super agile and |
| 1298s | almost sort of like a monk so she has |
| 1301s | that like agility like you know focus |
| 1304s | but the spirituality so I was originally |
| 1307s | thinking of making her blind and then I |
| 1309s | was like might not just make her an |
| 1310s | absolute badass and give her a blindfold |
| 1314s | doesn't need her eyes she doesn't need |
| 1316s | her eyes Jesus senses nothing o Lord |
| 1322s | Iowa okay it's all these concepts before |
| 1330s | it is really cool he's been spending |
| 1332s | time with Jim hasn't he okay swole like |
| 1336s | that that one's like very Genghis Khan |
| 1340s | to me it definitely seems like a villain |
| 1341s | yeah love it so that's really cool so if |
| 1344s | you guys remember the eye with warriors |
| 1346s | from the start obviously they're his |
| 1348s | soldiers so you can see the design |
| 1351s | references color colored color fiends |
| 1356s | cool yeah and then the and then the |
| 1359s | concepts as well actually look at the |
| 1361s | concepts I can't tell which one I used |
| 1364s | and they told the hair from like the top |
| 1367s | left or whatever yeah okay yeah so as |
| 1371s | mentioned early like every there's eight |
| 1374s | health clans for the elves and everyone |
| 1377s | has their own a leader and I think it's |
| 1379s | really cool I thinks if I all got their |
| 1381s | own unique styles cuz they all have |
| 1382s | their like themes like skills and |
| 1384s | whatnot so like Robin just uh fifty |
| 1388s | generic elves making these guys stand |
| 1390s | out quite a bit yeah it was really fun |
| 1393s | to design had a great time |
| 1394s | still having great time to be honest |
| 1396s | we're making else hurry let the line up |
| 1398s | you heard of all the the elders because |
| 1400s | you could see that how unique each one |
| 1401s | one yeah like they sent the Avengers |
| 1404s | assembling sort of thing when all of the |
| 1407s | elves have been released I guess I'll |
| 1409s | like post the lineup cause it might be |
| 1410s | quite interesting for you guys to see |
| 1411s | how the different shape language works |
| 1413s | together yeah cool cool so it's a little |
| 1418s | sneak peek of some of the general stuff |
| 1421s | chrome of the city and I think now we're |
| 1422s | going to go into a deep dive into the |
| 1424s | two main piece of content we're gonna |
| 1426s | find there being the gauntlet and it's |
| 1428s | all karna so I think we're starting with |
| 1430s | the gauntlet |
| 1431s | yeah I think that maybe the corner who |
| 1433s | knows we'll see what happens hello once |
| 1437s | again for anyone not aware the gauntlet |
| 1440s | is a new mini game I guess the best way |
| 1443s | to describe it that's going to be coming |
| 1445s | with a song |
| 1447s | and / if some once you've completed the |
| 1449s | quest and you can enter / if you'll be |
| 1450s | able to go to this place this new |
| 1452s | training area where when you enter you |
| 1456s | not allow us to take any viewer when |
| 1457s | armor weapons or anything else in it |
| 1459s | said you have to run around in there |
| 1461s | gathering items killing monsters - |
| 1463s | basically gathering of supplies to |
| 1466s | hopefully have a chance of surviving |
| 1469s | against the final boss which we'll be |
| 1471s | having a look at very soon so it's |
| 1475s | definitely some dungeoneering vibes |
| 1477s | coming across here and like you think |
| 1478s | you could see like we're dungeoneering |
| 1479s | like inspiration like the square rooms |
| 1481s | and whatnot on the idea of like having |
| 1483s | to gather your own items and everything |
| 1484s | and not take your own stuff in but that |
| 1486s | said sir it's not it's not a copy that |
| 1488s | is written by any means it's not just |
| 1490s | engineering there's a lot of different |
| 1492s | things going on here I think the biggest |
| 1493s | one is probably the time limit so when |
| 1496s | you go in here you get it's currently |
| 1498s | ten minutes that could change in |
| 1500s | bouncing me at ten minutes to explore |
| 1501s | the area so it's really fast paced like |
| 1503s | compared to a lot of the content where |
| 1505s | you can sort of afford to just stand |
| 1508s | behind a pillar for half an hour and |
| 1509s | slowly heal up in here you don't get a |
| 1511s | chance to do any of that you have to be |
| 1512s | as fast as possible and if you're not |
| 1514s | fast enough you're not gonna have enough |
| 1515s | items when you get to that boss so the |
| 1521s | theme behind it is uh unsurprisingly in |
| 1523s | the Crystal City |
| 1524s | it's crystals so all the creatures you |
| 1526s | fight for gone that they're all |
| 1527s | constructed out of crystal and then |
| 1529s | animated and here we have any fuel |
| 1532s | examples of the creatures you'll find in |
| 1534s | there so we're all based on existing |
| 1537s | creatures you'll find in game are you |
| 1540s | gonna go into the law behind it oh that |
| 1542s | - idea that it's a training ground yes |
| 1546s | yes so it's a like the reason why they |
| 1548s | have all these crystal creatures it's a |
| 1549s | it's a training area they go in here to |
| 1551s | a try and better themselves basically so |
| 1554s | they're not they're not gonna be killing |
| 1555s | actual unicorns it's a little bit me it |
| 1558s | had me said they've got these uh ones |
| 1561s | that have been created that live in |
| 1562s | there |
| 1569s | I'm gonna sign up for the wolf and |
| 1573s | Christa at least yes I found a paper |
| 1577s | yeah something loves the dog beast as |
| 1578s | you can see how all the creatures are |
| 1580s | quite fitting like creatures from around |
| 1582s | the area or quite a creature so you'll |
| 1585s | find it like similar styles of |
| 1586s | environments like woods and whatnot and |
| 1591s | as mentioned earlier if you can manage |
| 1595s | to gather enough supplies you might have |
| 1597s | a chance of taking on the boss the |
| 1600s | crystalline hun liffe so that's this guy |
| 1602s | here |
| 1603s | so unlike all the others which are |
| 1605s | existing creatures this guy is a brand |
| 1607s | new not a bit of lore again for the to |
| 1609s | people who might care about that sort of |
| 1611s | thing and really like this guy's this is |
| 1613s | a base on a deadly predator from the |
| 1616s | elven homeworld from before they came to |
| 1619s | Gillen or I'd love to do honey lifts |
| 1623s | that aren't made of crystal and people |
| 1624s | just come across one day okay thanks |
| 1631s | that thanks G so it's about to say your |
| 1633s | actual name there okay we do that knows |
| 1638s | not mod G we can actually see the full |
| 1642s | full force of the handle F in the next |
| 1645s | one I think as well we've got his attack |
| 1647s | animation solves your inspiration when |
| 1649s | working on this when I was a kid there's |
| 1652s | a film called |
| 1652s | neverending story and there was this |
| 1655s | horrible like wolf creature they had to |
| 1658s | find that I gave me nightmares so I |
| 1659s | thought I'll base it roughly on that |
| 1661s | they yeah that's what it's based upon |
| 1663s | and also 300 with that scary dog at the |
| 1667s | start of that remember waste training a |
| 1668s | son oh yeah yeah that's pretty brutal oh |
| 1671s | yeah we're not gonna give any spoilers |
| 1673s | as to how the actual combat works so |
| 1676s | you'll have to have a think for |
| 1678s | yourselves what this special attack |
| 1679s | might do people are asking if the goal |
| 1682s | is solo ad yes the Gorna is a solo the |
| 1685s | next piece of content we gonna move on |
| 1687s | after this is groups I've got bit of a |
| 1689s | mixture going on |
| 1692s | so well like a we like a bit of a fun |
| 1698s | but we really like rewards don't we |
| 1700s | that's a that's a really fun stuff so |
| 1702s | from the gauntlet here's one of the |
| 1704s | things you might be able to get if |
| 1705s | you're lucky enough this is via the |
| 1707s | blade of sale door this is the new sword |
| 1709s | that we recently polled this has been |
| 1712s | done by a modder I think that's right |
| 1713s | yeah and on the Left we've got the |
| 1715s | charged version and on the right we've |
| 1717s | got the uncharged version it's quite |
| 1719s | strange but initially I was gonna make |
| 1720s | it and we didn't really talk about it |
| 1723s | but I was gonna make it literally that |
| 1725s | let's go - it's like a nice elven blade |
| 1727s | we just chased we don't have to talk |
| 1730s | anymore and we've also got the crystal |
| 1736s | armor so the armor that you were using |
| 1739s | the gauntlet is a crystal armor and you |
| 1740s | can see the different variations there |
| 1742s | as you were like charged up in the |
| 1744s | gauntlet and enhance it and whatnot and |
| 1747s | if you once again get looking from the |
| 1749s | corner you'll be able to take some armor |
| 1752s | home yourself |
| 1753s | not to mention about the armor oh yeah |
| 1756s | the armor is Ted so you've got your |
| 1758s | first tier second tier third tier and |
| 1760s | the design sort of reflects that so you |
| 1762s | I guess you know the helmets a bit more |
| 1764s | open in the first first tier coming down |
| 1766s | 30 and and then that's sort of the whole |
| 1769s | way through some of you don't like it |
| 1775s | there it is for a male character as well |
| 1777s | okay this also replaces the armor that |
| 1780s | we showed off the rim fest as well |
| 1781s | correct yes we could talk a bit about |
| 1784s | that like that's one that you actually |
| 1786s | get yeah this is the to gain from the go |
| 1789s | on that yeah yeah so the armor that you |
| 1794s | guys saw at runefest |
| 1796s | was originally defined the idea of it |
| 1799s | something like an all-round |
| 1800s | armor yeah like a hybrid armor but we've |
| 1804s | sort of decided since then that this |
| 1807s | armor is specifically ranged so I kind |
| 1811s | of redesigned it with that in mind this |
| 1814s | is I suppose it's still kind of a work |
| 1816s | in progress it's the most recent thing |
| 1818s | that I've done so I'm totally open to |
| 1819s | feedback yes still open to be exact |
| 1821s | hundred percent so I have a few posts on |
| 1824s | Twitter so if you guys have any really |
| 1826s | cific feedback it would be great if you |
| 1828s | go and leave them on that post so that I |
| 1829s | could read through them and so you see |
| 1831s | what you guys like to see changed yeah |
| 1834s | what's your Twitter handle my Twitter |
| 1836s | handle is at Jagex g g ee yeah so the |
| 1844s | little sneak peek of the gauntlet there |
| 1847s | has much today I'm not going to show too |
| 1848s | much off because I don't want to let you |
| 1849s | guys know how to beat it but probably |
| 1852s | already starving a little think about |
| 1854s | what might be involved and we have a big |
| 1858s | piece of content in proof is zal |
| 1860s | carnitine ooh skilling boss and as I |
| 1862s | said earlier this is one that is |
| 1863s | available for groups so here she is so |
| 1870s | obviously a lot of things in the Crystal |
| 1873s | City are made from crystal and you may |
| 1876s | have noticed a bit of a running funeral |
| 1877s | shown off of there's been a lot of |
| 1878s | crystal so weaves alkar know we wanted |
| 1881s | to do something a little bit different |
| 1882s | and she is this demon that the elves |
| 1884s | have imprisoned within proof nests that |
| 1886s | they can study her reason why I want to |
| 1888s | study is because she has a curse that |
| 1891s | she has been turned to stone which is |
| 1892s | quite fascinating because I've never |
| 1893s | seen anything like that before |
| 1895s | and it gave us the opportunity to blow a |
| 1897s | few different colors or almond just more |
| 1900s | blues and greens which we love blues and |
| 1901s | greens it was a lot of batting press so |
| 1903s | this is something a little bit darker |
| 1905s | it's also nice to do a demon in |
| 1908s | runescape with quite an old school with |
| 1911s | a more effeminate appearance to it |
| 1913s | because a lot well most of our demons a |
| 1914s | male aren't they have we caught female |
| 1916s | difference I think only the pendants |
| 1919s | Queens like the only one that |
| 1920s | immediately springs to mind know pretty |
| 1922s | much all all males here chance to do |
| 1924s | something a little bit different than a |
| 1925s | female it kinda sets aside like in terms |
| 1928s | of the silhouette that we've got there |
| 1929s | seems it's got broader hips obviously |
| 1930s | like a broader chest and just the way |
| 1932s | she kind of pivots on one hip and pushes |
| 1935s | like her |
| 1935s | I rather hip to the side that's gonna |
| 1938s | say glute then I looked awesome like the |
| 1944s | wings that that's a very menacing feel |
| 1946s | to it yeah they didn't look like that |
| 1948s | originally today |
| 1949s | I didn't this went through about three |
| 1950s | iterations for iterations including the |
| 1952s | Twitter feedback before we finally got |
| 1953s | something that we're happy with so yeah |
| 1956s | it looks pretty cool now so again no |
| 1959s | no game place was but you can see one of |
| 1961s | the right she's doing some sort of |
| 1962s | special attack there I have to wait and |
| 1963s | see what that is for the people asking a |
| 1966s | chat so you'll fight her using mainly |
| 1968s | mining but also a little bit smithing |
| 1970s | and runecrafting as well because she's |
| 1971s | made from stone pretty much as you can |
| 1975s | imagine it's pretty pretty crude nothing |
| 1977s | overly fancy you have to mine her rather |
| 1979s | than fighting hers and all because of |
| 1981s | she's made of stone normal weapons won't |
| 1983s | do any damage to her I'm not gonna say |
| 1986s | any more than that because spoilers have |
| 1988s | to work out for yourselves again and |
| 1991s | she's got some rewards as well so anyone |
| 1994s | that manages to kill them I have a |
| 1996s | chance of getting a crystal tall seed |
| 1999s | which can be used with the dragon |
| 2000s | equivalents to make the newer crystal |
| 2002s | tools pick axe axe and half uber so |
| 2006s | these were also create by madre it's in |
| 2008s | a really good job of these I'm looking |
| 2010s | forward to getting all myself anymore I |
| 2015s | believe that's the end cool so I think |
| 2018s | then it's time for a little look at |
| 2021s | quite a few things oh he's trying to |
| 2022s | listen to something we've got another |
| 2024s | audio sneak peak now and this is V |
| 2027s | really were gonna be revealing via so |
| 2030s | the music track that plays when you |
| 2031s | actually fight sell car now maybe who do |
| 2036s | we have I think so yep |
| 2039s | [Music] |
| 2045s | [Music] |
| 2045s | [Applause] |
| 2048s | [Music] |
| 2052s | [Applause] |
| 2054s | [Music] |
| 2090s | so we've got a couple of new faces on |
| 2095s | the on the stream now we've magically |
| 2098s | really smoothly in that suddenly lost |
| 2102s | want to go some on West and instead |
| 2104s | we're now joined by a mod en and mod |
| 2106s | Surma hello were oddly enough after just |
| 2109s | doing an order reveal these are the |
| 2111s | audio guys so you guys have been working |
| 2113s | on the new music tracks for some of the |
| 2117s | elves and as mentor some questions for |
| 2119s | you sadly we ipad has locked itself I |
| 2121s | don't have a passcode so I'm now |
| 2122s | completely making it was like that's how |
| 2128s | we roll that we just listened to there |
| 2130s | was the track plays when you're fighting |
| 2134s | Zarkon it wasn't it yeah that was done |
| 2135s | by yourself not so awesome |
| 2137s | yep so I guess well something like were |
| 2139s | your inspirations when you're coming up |
| 2141s | is a deep question but you know |
| 2144s | inspiration comes from many places at |
| 2146s | the weirdest of times but I think you |
| 2148s | know one of the primary inspirations is |
| 2149s | really looking at the art and it's a |
| 2152s | really good way to get an idea of what |
| 2154s | kind of mood we're in you know are we |
| 2156s | it's a dark kind of atmosphere and even |
| 2159s | looking at sort of kind of herself and |
| 2161s | how she how she moves how she carries |
| 2163s | herself and presents herself and all |
| 2165s | these and all these kind of features and |
| 2168s | characteristics can be been translated |
| 2170s | into some sort of musical form and |
| 2173s | identity really you know and you know |
| 2176s | just it's a boss battle so it's gotta be |
| 2179s | yeah yeah obviously with the nice calm |
| 2184s | crystal city has been a lot of like slow |
| 2186s | it definitely definitely gonna be a |
| 2188s | chance for us there's still there's |
| 2189s | still be a bit of room for a couple of |
| 2190s | thoughts there's a lot of music that |
| 2192s | we've written for this piece yeah it's |
| 2194s | one of the largest ones I think it seems |
| 2197s | like we say that every time we should |
| 2198s | keep going bigger and bigger don't worry |
| 2199s | we do think that we can't resist we like |
| 2201s | it we like big can't help it yeah like |
| 2203s | for the for the actual city itself you |
| 2205s | guys we've done a music track for each |
| 2207s | clan we have plus one for the tower |
| 2210s | voice a big centralis right so each one |
| 2212s | each console has its like so so theme |
| 2215s | basically again as we kind of try to |
| 2216s | style that on what well basically we |
| 2219s | read |
| 2219s | upon all they weave we all have Mesa law |
| 2227s | but we yeah we try to take as many kind |
| 2230s | of influences from you know like what |
| 2233s | their kind of jobs are the clans you |
| 2234s | know the people that are involved in |
| 2236s | there and that kind of you know they |
| 2237s | worship or where they live or as many |
| 2239s | different details as we can get and then |
| 2241s | we try and and little bits of references |
| 2243s | into the music that sell that idea where |
| 2246s | possible mm-hmm so I think I remember |
| 2248s | and I think it was the UM not count but |
| 2251s | I'm what clan and what that's like |
| 2255s | correctly so you know that was all very |
| 2256s | kind of mystical and so that's how I'd |
| 2258s | you know when when I was writing my |
| 2259s | piece of music that's how what I wanted |
| 2261s | to kind of portray was this mystic feel |
| 2262s | you know yeah for anyone not aware the a |
| 2265s | melodic plant very kind of mystics as |
| 2269s | you may have gathered from that that's |
| 2270s | actually where via the gone is based on |
| 2272s | me a melodic line because it's this big |
| 2274s | magical training area so obviously |
| 2280s | prefer already exists in another game |
| 2282s | exists in runescape there's a rumor yeah |
| 2284s | and what you already had loads of we |
| 2287s | think it's nice as well so we basically |
| 2289s | just copied Aris did you you look back |
| 2297s | at like the what you did for then and |
| 2299s | like when I first sort of started this I |
| 2302s | don't know about yourself monster |
| 2304s | because I think you might started a |
| 2306s | couple days after me or something like |
| 2307s | that I'm responsible for all the really |
| 2324s | annoying stuff like Skype main sea |
| 2327s | chantey three flew salad and all those |
| 2334s | look wonderfully annoying ear worms that |
| 2337s | you either love or hate depending on you |
| 2340s | know your taste obviously you love them |
| 2342s | but yes I started off and right |
| 2346s | basically I found this in some ways a |
| 2349s | little bit easier because I was kind of |
| 2350s | in a good mood when I wrote the music |
| 2351s | which is sort of rare anyway |
| 2353s | so the music kind of really flowed for |
| 2355s | me and I just basically I just started |
| 2358s | churning out this this massive great big |
| 2360s | thing of about 20 odd minutes with sort |
| 2362s | of five or six tunes in it so that |
| 2365s | became the backbone of all the kind of |
| 2367s | like the music for me and we kind of |
| 2370s | took influences from that and then you |
| 2372s | took some bits and bits and it all kind |
| 2374s | of grew out of that but we didn't want |
| 2377s | to copy anything at all from our s3 |
| 2379s | right so it's completely from the ground |
| 2382s | up there's like nothing shared at all |
| 2383s | with any of that music it's got its own |
| 2386s | sound and you know everything is bespoke |
| 2389s | nice as it should be of course did you |
| 2393s | find you know looking at other Fantasy |
| 2396s | games films over where elves appeared |
| 2398s | quite a bit you look any of that for |
| 2399s | inspiration as you say I may get bit |
| 2401s | well as is much sympathy you know I'm |
| 2404s | inspiration really does come life from |
| 2406s | everywhere films and sort of what we've |
| 2408s | raid and you know that even just the |
| 2410s | documents are supplied from dev teams |
| 2412s | here and the concept art and the models |
| 2414s | and we're looking at them and stuff like |
| 2416s | that I mean you know you have to take |
| 2419s | literally what he can from everywhere so |
| 2421s | for me it all kind of just feeds into |
| 2424s | into like some sort of good ideas and |
| 2426s | then I try and kind of roll with it so |
| 2428s | kind of go through its kind of processed |
| 2430s | to that there's a kind of Ian and |
| 2431s | something comes out at the end in it |
| 2433s | yeah and you know luckily it was quite |
| 2435s | enjoyable they're not all really kind of |
| 2436s | happy jolly Tunes there's there's |
| 2439s | there's a there's a mixture of stuff |
| 2440s | there but one of the things that I like |
| 2442s | to do is write songs that really get |
| 2445s | stuck in people's heads and sort of you |
| 2447s | know I don't know them or make them |
| 2448s | really jolly depending on you know what |
| 2450s | you like examples of that you know the |
| 2453s | kind of recognizable stuff that you can |
| 2455s | harm so there was a comment I read |
| 2458s | earlier about the Lightning music being |
| 2459s | happy that was played on that as a |
| 2461s | stream was was dying but not |
| 2464s | everything's kind of really happy it |
| 2465s | kind of has moments of light and |
| 2467s | darkness enough so you know hopefully it |
| 2469s | will sort of please it is when you |
| 2472s | listen to it it reflects the stories |
| 2474s | like the entire elf storyline has been a |
| 2476s | very light and dark has had some of a |
| 2478s | darker any question see an old school so |
| 2480s | it makes sense the music would follow |
| 2481s | that I mean we we yeah we wanted to kind |
| 2484s | of like have |
| 2485s | loads of music that can play gun at |
| 2487s | random when you're in in the city so |
| 2489s | that it doesn't hopefully be a it gets |
| 2492s | so repetitive as like some areas can be |
| 2494s | so we'll probably have a little kind of |
| 2497s | well and playlist of songs that that can |
| 2499s | all kind of rotate round and round as he |
| 2500s | going round and unlock them in different |
| 2502s | areas not fully decided yet but we will |
| 2505s | talk about how they're going to be |
| 2507s | unlocked later awesome well thank you |
| 2511s | for writing the time to join us today |
| 2513s | it's always a fun some some new music |
| 2516s | tracks I think there was a plenty of |
| 2517s | there what do you look for that in the |
| 2519s | chat wasn't what it looked like anyway |
| 2521s | so uh even nod and look at the church |
| 2526s | never hopefully they'll be a bit more of |
| 2528s | that when we when we release it mmm |
| 2530s | awesome yeah give us your comments yes |
| 2532s | we look forward to it like it is |

| 2633s | [Applause] |
| 2637s | [Music] |
| 2645s | there we go another never smooth |
| 2647s | transition I didn't ask you first you |
| 2650s | other guys have put the word in I could |
| 2653s | have been something completely different |
| 2655s | so after that a smooth transition we've |
| 2658s | got some time for some general questions |
| 2660s | now so you guys have been hopefully |
| 2662s | throwing some questions in the chat as |
| 2664s | the streams been going on we've got a |
| 2665s | few that we've taken from reddit and |
| 2668s | Twitter as well |
| 2668s | I know read in Twitter but hey hey what |
| 2671s | can you do and we're gonna go through |
| 2673s | those now so hopefully a mod gamba has a |
| 2676s | few more for us as well maybe so let's |
| 2681s | see some of these we've sort of covered |
| 2684s | already earlier so forgive me oh so |
| 2686s | scroll for a bit so straight away |
| 2689s | something I can't pronounce will we need |
| 2691s | barrels of naf naf - yeah barrels of |
| 2696s | stuff to complete request asking so I |
| 2699s | don't lose my mind mid quest on release |
| 2701s | no you won't need those you'll probably |
| 2703s | still lose your mind because of that |
| 2705s | like possibly showing off earlier sorry |
| 2708s | nice easy one so next up we would |
| 2712s | probably talk a little bit more when did |
| 2713s | the team first decide to make song of |
| 2715s | the elves and how long has it been in |
| 2717s | development and how much that design |
| 2719s | changed over time I was actually free |
| 2720s | questions outs very greedy so this looks |
| 2724s | good from one at a time so when your |
| 2725s | team first site to make some of the |
| 2726s | elves we first decided near enough a |
| 2729s | year ago now didn't we it was a little |
| 2731s | while before runefest yeah so every year |
| 2734s | every year in the lead up to her room |
| 2735s | fest we will get locked in a room and we |
| 2738s | sit down and we're not allowed out until |
| 2740s | we've come up with some ideas for what |
| 2742s | to what to announce that we're in fest |
| 2744s | and this was this was one of them and I |
| 2748s | think the idea came from us who've |
| 2752s | learned at this point people seem to |
| 2753s | quite like quests Grand Master Quest |
| 2755s | particularly so we've got a lot of love |
| 2756s | for monkey manners - and Dragon Slayer - |
| 2759s | so else you want to do another one but |
| 2761s | we didn't want to just go of the monkey |
| 2764s | monster drones there - let's take |
| 2765s | another question just put two on the end |
| 2767s | of it |
| 2767s | we've done that a couple of times and |
| 2769s | I've no doubt we'll do it again at some |
| 2770s | points they do seem to go quite well but |
| 2772s | we wanted to do something a little bit |
| 2774s | different and we realized that what |
| 2778s | we're doing with monkey - - dragon say - |
| 2780s | we were taking like iconic quests and |
| 2782s | continuing them and it made sense to |
| 2785s | take the next step up and take on our |
| 2786s | iconic series and continue it certainly |
| 2788s | just looking at one quest entire series |
| 2790s | of them and while doing that to do |
| 2793s | something we've never actually done in |
| 2794s | old school before that's actually finish |
| 2796s | off the storyline we've got which I want |
| 2798s | to think about how many storylines are |
| 2799s | out there in our game as so many of them |
| 2801s | and none of them have an ending we're |
| 2803s | very good at doing middles we keep |
| 2804s | churning out middles forever but we |
| 2807s | don't ever do an ending them this is an |
| 2809s | opportunity to actually do that for the |
| 2811s | first time and that was why work with |
| 2814s | some of the elves but a radical idea I |
| 2816s | know it's crazy isn't there Matt I'm |
| 2818s | doing an ending and I see we are not |
| 2823s | still infested it seemed like people |
| 2824s | liked it and when we pulled it it got I |
| 2826s | think mentioned early like 95% or some |
| 2829s | things so it seems to be some love |
| 2831s | behind it what was the next part of a |
| 2833s | question how long has it been in |
| 2834s | development so this has been quite a big |
| 2836s | project for us so I the poll was in |
| 2839s | March time some things really started to |
| 2841s | kick off but as always we like we do do |
| 2844s | a few things before the polls so we |
| 2845s | actually have things to show off things |
| 2847s | to prototype and whatnot so I think we |
| 2848s | actually started back in night January |
| 2850s | didn't we I started making elves |
| 2852s | genuinely in like the first of January |
| 2854s | couples please yeah it sounds like the |
| 2857s | biggest development overhead from the |
| 2858s | team as well so in terms of people |
| 2860s | working on the project over length of |
| 2861s | time it's been huge we want to be like |
| 2864s | we've got a whole Grand Master Quest |
| 2865s | we've got the whole city and all the new |
| 2867s | unique piece of content in it so it's |
| 2869s | quite chunky on yeah and I think |
| 2871s | although the actuals of official |
| 2873s | development time kicked off in January |
| 2875s | there are a couple of bits and pieces |
| 2876s | even back in December that my dad and I |
| 2879s | weren't entirely sure whether or not |
| 2880s | they were possible to do with regard |
| 2881s | sort of like the way the gauntlet is |
| 2883s | generated and we kind of like took some |
| 2886s | time to figure out it was so there's |
| 2889s | been going back temporarily but sort of |
| 2891s | officially kicked off and really got |
| 2893s | into the swing things in January yeah |
| 2895s | earlier as well because of the didn't |
| 2897s | write the quest yeah yeah |
| 2901s | yeah before we got locked in that room |
| 2902s | actually I went into a room with an idea |
| 2904s | I didn't come with it on the spot I'm |
| 2906s | not quite that good so actually I think |
| 2909s | a recreational story well over a year |
| 2912s | ago now it's good and then the planning |
| 2916s | for the actual city yourself just before |
| 2917s | were infesting like September |
| 2918s | so I mean mostly for about six months |
| 2921s | essentially but it's been going on for a |
| 2923s | while and then there was another part |
| 2926s | that question because they were very |
| 2927s | greedy yeah how much of a design changed |
| 2929s | over time so I guess that map is sort of |
| 2933s | a good example I was still pretty close |
| 2934s | to the original designer like for the |
| 2936s | quest is a pretty much the same as the |
| 2940s | story that was really set out a few |
| 2942s | little things have changed so pretty |
| 2944s | close to be honest I think yeah I think |
| 2946s | they're like the way we did this we |
| 2947s | reassessed all the way throughout the |
| 2949s | project has to voice exactly we want to |
| 2951s | go in and nothing's really changed it's |
| 2953s | just more the order that we do things in |
| 2955s | to get the end goal is near that really |
| 2957s | changes thing from the get-go we always |
| 2959s | knew boy that's what we were gonna have |
| 2961s | in here you said it's fair did like like |
| 2969s | a sort of second poll as well which it |
| 2971s | gave us more opportunity to so focus on |
| 2973s | the core elements of it and then sort of |
| 2975s | add some extra things on after after |
| 2976s | it's off God get me of the project done |
| 2977s | as well because Mel's really cool so |
| 2981s | next question that's quite a big one |
| 2984s | I'll try and shorten it a bit with patil |
| 2986s | dr is a that obviously these stories |
| 2989s | exist in in runescape already and we're |
| 2993s | basically kind of remaking a quest |
| 2995s | already exists and i how close do we |
| 2999s | stick to veer to the law and I'm asking |
| 3003s | myself it's not like this so why why |
| 3007s | have you done this I think the best |
| 3008s | example of this is looking at hello got |
| 3012s | a mystery man coming up so I think we're |
| 3016s | a good example of this thing that we've |
| 3017s | already done before is a taste of Hope |
| 3019s | so that was the first time we we were |
| 3022s | requesting old school where there was |
| 3023s | like a corresponding one in in runescape |
| 3026s | free and if you look at that one you'll |
| 3029s | see like we a few of the elements are |
| 3031s | the same so like the |
| 3033s | the key points are quite similar but |
| 3036s | there's a lot of new things as well in |
| 3038s | particular the journey takes a different |
| 3039s | route even if the ending is the same and |
| 3041s | similarly with song avails there are |
| 3044s | some similarities as a few there's a few |
| 3046s | things that stay the same a few |
| 3047s | characters have the same type of endings |
| 3048s | and whatnot |
| 3049s | put a few have different ones as well |
| 3050s | and in particular like the journey the |
| 3053s | order it goes it is all quite different |
| 3054s | and I think you saw the images earlier |
| 3057s | sort of puzzle and see that's not |
| 3058s | something that's in runescape free so it |
| 3060s | should feel very different so I just |
| 3065s | like thing as someone said like Game of |
| 3066s | Thrones different journey seem and |
| 3069s | hopefully it's better than Game of |
| 3070s | Thrones like that |
| 3075s | I lost a place know how hard as we |
| 3079s | gauntlet on a scale of falador guard to |
| 3080s | six jabs at once I never liked |
| 3084s | difficulty questions it's always a very |
| 3087s | subjective yeah |
| 3089s | I don't really play the game that much |
| 3090s | and when we actually played the gauntlet |
| 3093s | had loads of fun doing it and I thought |
| 3095s | it's quite accessible for someone that's |
| 3096s | generally not used to like the mechanics |
| 3098s | of old school runescape so on that basis |
| 3100s | it's definitely like really playable a |
| 3102s | really accessible and really a no |
| 3105s | streamlined to play yeah the nice thing |
| 3107s | about having a time limit on it is a |
