Sometimes, things get polled not so much as to see it get dev'd, but to see where it might stand with the community.
Just because a dev thinks the idea could be funny or technically useful, doesn't mean that the community as whole thinks so. For example: they could have had 3 ideas for a Land of Snow themed quest, and instead of a Violet focused sequel, she now has a small cameo in it or her part makes up a small section of the overall quest.
Sometimes, a weak concept could also be held onto to either be reworked/rewritten later ... or be rolled into another concept.
Sometimes, the idea would still come out ... just instead of it being say a Fate of the Gods type quest in terms of production, they instead opt to scale it down to the scope of a bottle quest.
It's possible they're also looking for a higher percentage, something 75+% like OSRS lol
They said the EXACT OPPOSITE thing in Runefest. They explicitly said they wouldn't solely follow whatever poll percentage because the OSRS Poll System is problematic.
I completely agree and understand why RS3 won't do that because it would be extremely embarrassing if they failed to honor passed polls on one hand and called everything they wanted in the game but knew they wouldn't pass INTEGRITY updates without polling them.

The OSRS polling system is not that problematic, in many ways it's one of the better options for updates. OSRS doesn't actually have that many integrity updates compared to polled updates. And RS3 devs change their minds alot. Remember over 10 years ago when they said that they weren't ever making RS3?

We already know from Desperate Measures the Dragonkin [are] not united at all. There are 4 tribes and 2 of them being Dreamerkin who prefer to sleep through times of trouble like Guthix, the Elder Gods and perhaps Tumek[e]n too. There is no place for Zogroth in RS3. There is not even a word, let alone of a poll regarding this Zorg... who?
God wars are god wars, regardless they are wars between lesser gods, elder gods or fake gods.
"OSRS and RS3 are two different tellings of the same story, if WOM dies in OSRS, at somepoint he'll die in RS3."
Totally baseless. Guthix died in RS3 but it doesn't mean at "somepoint" he'll die in OSRS.
Are you agreeing or disagreeing with me? You seem to think you're disagreeing, but your comments agree with mine.
Except for saying Zogroth has no place in RS3. That's just silly.
Also, did WOM die in OSRS? I don't think he does.

I totally disagree with blindly following polled results, regardless it is you or whoever think otherwise.
Please already re-read the comments you grave bumped up from months ago. Somebody mentioned WOM in OSRS, not me. I just used his hypothesis as a comparison with RS3.
Last but not least, Jagex already denounced blindly following polls results. As such, RS3 has come up with revised quests very different from the Runefest reveal, and OSRS has flat out pushing Integrity Changes as an excuse to overturn previously failed polls like Partnership.
