Haha this is something we've considered. Skill names in OSRS are weird and don't follow consistent grammatical rules. Even "Runecrafting" is actually just "Runecraft," but using the verb form is so dominant and flows nicely with a lot of other skills (Mining, Smithing, Woodcutting, etc) that most people don't even realize it!

So we've settled on simple "Bard." Maybe not the most conducive to being verb-ified as Runecraft or Attack, but we wouldn't want to confuse it with real life barding!

I dunno man, horses ain’t real :P

I love this! Mod Dylan and I were talking about it the other month when discussing adding bards to pubs and Mod Nin has made something pretty cool which would help the tech side of things!

Funnily enough the spark for warding was from a book called ‘The Painted Man’. Suppose I should’ve been paying more attention to what Rojer was doing rather than Arlen…

A guy got me to run 1k iron to the bank and paid me 100k for it. Literally my first day of membership and I felt so rich.

It was certainly how a lot of the early play-tests went!

The people who play it I'd assume

And do they all unanimously agree?

Artists made the most beautiful stuff for a god damn Super Nintendo and a Gameboy. It has nothing to do with mediums or limitations. Good art is good art regardless of limitations on style and technology.

If you don't want to make good art for oldschool RuneScape then don't work on art for oldschool RuneScape.

Who decides what is 'good art' for Old School RuneScape?

Can we please get some information on the RC skilling boss? I keep seeing that picture but can’t find any information about it. Is this a WiP or are you guys just teasing us?

We have a rough prototype that was made during Ideation time but the project won't officially begin until the new year :)

Bare hyggelig :)

This is like my best friend coping my homework but only puts about 10% of the effort into it. Good try OSRS team but rune lite did the whole world cept caves.

Swapping out terrain and textures is great and all but it does lead to a lot of issues… like snow inside buildings and snow where sand should be. I’ll see if I can release any visuals from in-game but I promise you we’ve done a pretty decent job making the area not just wintery, but also quite festive! We also started this several weeks ago before we were aware 117 was doing anything so claiming we’re copying is a little unfair :(

They really don't make Christmas events like they used to for osrs. Where once all of Falador or Lumbridge was covered in snow and decorations, it's now often just a square with a tree and a bit of snow but you can always see the green in the distance. I often felt there was no heart or warmth in it the last couple of years.

By looking at their names and faces during streams and then matching said names with who is credited with the aforementioned content on the OSRS wiki. I'm aware that there are both genders working on probably every project, but many projects that Gee, Zuko, and Nancy J were/are in charge of are rather controversial in terms of how much they fit in with OSRS.

Right, but you're also aware that Zuko and Nancy J are not artists and that essentially nullifies your entire sexist point. I understand you have literally no idea how game development works but I'm glad you're here to give us your honest and uninformed opinion on the matter.

Perhaps it's just a coincidence, but the majority of content that doesn't fit with the true old school aesthetic has been made by women: Priffidinas and almost every NPC in the elf-questline, Leagues cannon, Enlightened Journey, 2021 Easter event, and those are just the ones off the top of my head.

How could you possibly know the gender of the artists behind all those projects?

I remember the poll but for some reason I thought one of the three options passed. My apologies for the inaccurate statement.

Side note: I also apologize for shitting on something you worked on in this comment thread. I hope you don’t take it personally. I (and I’m sure the community as well) love a lot of what you’ve done. The Kourend rework, for instance, was phenomenal.

This one very specific thing in thIs huge game just didn’t appeal to me personally, but I recognize it also has to be near impossible to appease every single person in this outspoken community. So thank you for even taking the time to try.

If I took things personally I'd be a terrible artist :P Art is subjective and one mans trash is anothers' prized painting. I hate what I made of the dstone armour, so you really shouldn't feel bad for hating it too :) maybe one day I can change it ;D

I made an attack anim for it. We just felt like a scythe was more fitting.

And that’s after they “fixed” it!

ACTUALLY... I was forced to have the fixes polled and they failed
