In my personal headcanon you're correct in your interpretation. He's planning on heading there, but it's not like there isn't stuff to do on Abbinah first. Certainly he wants to connect with his people and his roots again.

Before he can help another people, he has to first learn to help his own.

Isn't Armadyl supposed to be on Tarddiad?

Eh, heading there. But not necessarily only there. Certainly not sufficiently that I would use it against this stunning artwork.

/u/darkhearted_raven if you could answer, I'd appreciate. Bit confused on how this works :)

Like others have said, they stack. :)

I am taking a break from RuneScape and got excited for this pride event... Only to find out it's not f2p, i don't want to waste 50m almost 60m or however expensive the bonds are right now just for an event that I'd otherwise love to support, an event that should be celebrated by all.

Also it should be made more clear when trying to talk to the curator, right now it says he's not interested in talking at the moment, this is very vague and in no way says "this is members only" it also does not mention it being members only in the update post. I had to go to the wiki to find out so.

Try logging in later today. ;)

I spent a few days last week working on the code and have managed to get it working on F2P worlds. It should ideally be going live with the update today.

u/JagexHooli can you please pass on to the team that it'd be nice to be able to keepsake the banner, please? "Wear it with pride", the curator says - I'd love to smack every boss in this game with my flag.

Sadly I can't :c

Fix incoming to allow you to do this. :)

I have this bug too. Whenever I try talking to The Curator it says: 'They don't seem interested in talking to you at the moment.'

Are you playing on a F2P world? Currently the event is members only due the characters and locations involved. I am investigating whether it can be made F2P but currently it's members only.

Nope. Credit goes to Mod Zura, Mod Errol, Mod Pebble, myself and someone who's mod name I don't know. :D

Representation should be left for real life situations. In video games it rarely ever matters and is just a way for companies to look good in the eyes of the consumer.

I disagree with this statement quite strongly to be honest. Representation matters in games, tv shows, films and all walks of life. When you grow up feeling other as many LGBQTQIA+ people do, it's hard to look at the world and not feel like you are somehow wrong, or alien, or invalid. When the whole world looks like you it's easy to wonder why these things matter, but when the world looks different and you see something you can identify with, it makes a big difference.

It's not untrue when I suggest that sometimes seeing these characters in games and media can be a lifeline for people.

All of the stories presented in this event fit within the RuneScape world and exist alongside the other stories. They're slices of life that just acknowledges that our world is deliberately diverse and inclusive. They're just little memories and moments in grander stories.

But I've already had several people reach out to me to thank me for stories where they see th...

I think this might be a particularly disingenuous take and certainly a harsh way of thinking about this.

The Pride event was suggested, pushed and written by LGBTQIA+ people at Jagex and their allies. It was not mandated from any sort of business point of view. Certainly it was not intended to be a money making update. We made it because we wanted to tell some of those stories in game.

The reason it's not free to play is simply a consideration of the characters involved and the areas they need to be. Much of the F2P game is still a few years older than some of the more progressive approaches to character design and so a lot of these characters and their context simply don't exist in the F2P game. Some of the areas where there stories can be found equally don't show up in the F2P game either.

We could have made a separate version of the event only showing the F2P characters and stories, but it would effectively have been empty. We could have given out the ...

Hey, there's a glitch or something preventing some players from doing the event at all. Can this be looked into please? I was excited for it and can't even start it.

Can you give more details? There shouldn't be anything preventing this from happening. Can you submit a bug report with as much detail as possible please?

I'm really happy to see more representation, and for it to be bought to the forefront.

...I know keeping it is just another thing to unwrap every time one of the NPC's is used in a quest or content, but it is a shame this isn't just permanent content for future players too.

Character building lore updates are always fun!

These stories will appear every June from now on. Ideally we'll be adding more that will sit alongside the current ones.

I think it's good that they're being inclusive with these types of events, but they added rainbow crocs to the game. Rainbow crocs. I'm speechless.

They're glorious aren't they! Mod Dragon outdid themselves. When I saw them at a game jam one day I knew they had to be in game.

Glorious!
