/u/JagexSween Will the fight pit diary task be changed now that there will only be 1 world for the minigame?
We've tweaked the blog to remove the Fight Pits section. It was listed as a 'maybe', and the initial feedback is enough for us to reconsider :)
Can we wear graceful in trouble brewing? Fight pits update will make it slightly harder to get that task for karamja diary, is that intentional? Any news on that minigame reward shop that was passed years back? Going to poll anything again for that?
Unsure on Graceful, I'll enquire.
We've removed the Fight Pits offering due to this initial wave of feedback.
The Reward shop was discussed but it's a bigger project than we're offering in this instance.
Love the massive blog post, we got alot of new cool things to look forwards too. I just have to mention one thing -
A point to be made for any further Last Man Standing map creations is to address the fact that people are running circles around large house objects to avoid being killed. The wild varrock map proposed seems to have a lot of buildings so I just want to make sure that's taken that into consideration to stop people from griefing/stalling LMS games (remove ladders too pls). Also fixing the keys/chests/crates from giving you duplicate (inferior?) items during the game would be nice. Other than that new maps would be greatly welcomed.
The latest iteration of the map has fewer ladders and houses, I'll aim to share that soon.
What about Stealing Creation? 👀
In our recent survey we asked you about Stealing Creation AND Fist of Guthix. You can still take it here: https://osrs.game/Porting-Content-Survey
Any thoughts of decluttering Ferox Enclave? Even with very few people there it is just so noisy to the point where it’s hard to see certain NPCs and where you’re supposed to click.
Do you mean scenery?
I read it, love some parts hate other parts, overall I’ll take it thanks. Btw jagonians gimmie the kbd pet I’m a nice 4700 dry and starting to lose my steam a bit.
What parts do you hate?
It's a long read, but we'd love your feedback.
We talk Soul Wars and the Old School changes we're going to make for it.
Minigame improvements for:
Can you please not add dailyscape?
We don't want dailyscape. If players want us to explore things like Shooting Stars then we'd eliminate the daily aspects of it
lmao their statements on services is a joke. If they ban the discords people will just go back to using 3rd party sites like scythe or doing it in dms like they did in the past. At least put out a f**king statement saying that it's against the rules and that they will enforce it if they find out about it.
The way they're just leaving it as a grey area is beyond stupid.
It won't stay as a grey area. Statement and enforcement will follow.
I'm in the same boat, in the survey when it asked "Do you want shooting stars?
I just skipped it because I have no clue what it even is
That's a good point. My bad there, I just assumed people would know.
Never going to happen. On today's Leadership stream I asked Mod MikeD whether Steam would affect our model (there were lots of questions about this following the Steam announcement) and he adamantly said no. We're subscription-based and we'll still that way. Steam gives us access to lots of new players, we want them to play our game and if they like our game then they'll stick around. That's our goal.
Fix'd typos!
Apologies it was published so late, we had some issues with our news module. The blog was too dang long.
Not too surprising since it is a bit off-topic and probably not something they are pursuing. That said, I was thinking about it the other day and it is kind of shocking they haven't done more with the IP. Like in their push for mobile games, Arcanists seemed like a perfect fit.
The honest answer is that a RuneScape team or an Old School team aren't going to be announcing other Jagex projects. That news will always come from official Jagex sources (Jagex.com for example). We work exclusively on our games and share news exclusively about our games. That's why you'd get ignored.

Releases like Steam (and 2018's Mobile launch) puts us in front of huge audiences. We hope a Steam ensures a healthy amount of players coming into the game, whether new or players who played years ago.
We're not ready to talk features/QoLs yet. We're still some way from when we want to launch on Steam (https://www.jagex.com/en-GB/news/59Cgic/runescape-and-old-school-are-heading-to-steam - 2021), but we'll share more when we can.
f**k steam, let's hope it won't kill osrs
Why/how d'you think it'd kill Old School?
Old School will be coming to Steam, but not at the same time: https://www.jagex.com/en-GB/news/59Cgic/runescape-and-old-school-are-heading-to-steam
We've got more work to do first. We'll talk a bit about that in tomorrow's monthly Gazette and the Leadership Livestream with me, MikeD, and Kieren!
Hey Sween, has the Q&A stream been delayed until tommorow? Thanks
Yep. We'll be live 4-5pm. RuneScape are live today, we'll be live tomorrow. :)
We'll be talking about our plans for Steam in tomorrow's Gazette and Leadership Livestream (with me, MikeD, and Kieren). We're some way away from releasing, so we haven't much much to share, but we'll explain why we're waiting.
Exciting!
