So, what exactly is the point of Once Upon a Slime? Is it just there to be silly, or is this going to be a whole quest line and this is just the beginning?


Same point as Violet is Blue, I guess. These quests are seasonal event themed and not "just there to be silly". I don't know if these quests are going to have a whole quest line but it is likely they will have a whole lore based content line in place. For instance, we used to just have King Slime from a live event in Remmington. It was not a quest. Then Once Upon a Slime brings out the Queen Slime. Who knows if we will have other lore based content in any form including but not limited to quests/miniquests/live events/permanent content (e.g. mysteries, achieement diaries), which may brings us to the Prince and Princess Slimes?

Make no mistakes though, any such lore based content is not the QUESTS Jagex announced in Runefest 2019. They are just bonus content for more bang of our bucks.

Well the Slimes are popular so Jagex will probably make more slime content.
Thing even has a church that worships it. :P
Check out Thieves guild layout redesign. Happy ‘scaping

It is a possibly given it was also how Bob rose to the occasion and became Robert the Strong from a seeming silly stray cat. It won't surprise me if we see Slime Skirts and such in the game later. Well, just don't tell me one day the Slime King says " do you really think you can save the world.... and this is Xau....". :D

* I removed the following quests from the thread to reflect that they've been cancelled (Gaga Lady posted a thread on Reddit referring to the abysmal state of Questing on RS3, which included screenshots from Discord of J-Mods confirming that these quests are not coming):

AZZANADRA QUEST


- Not much is known yet
- Will be tackled by the Desperate Measures team after Desperate Measures is released
- Will be released after the upcoming Elder God Wars Dungeon in Summer 2020


CITY OF SENNTISTEN QUEST


- Not much is known yet
- Will be released before the upcoming Elder God Wars Dungeon in Summer 2020


* I added a question about the Merethiel & Vorago quests. Have they definitely been cancelled? I assume they have, but does anyone have a source on that please?

* I added a blurb on the upcoming Orthen Dig Site.

I apologize, I should've named it in that comment. I went back and added it now. On Reddit, there is a thread with a couple of screenshots from Discord of J-Mods confirming that these quests will not happen.

Can you please post either the link to the reddit post or the screenshots from Discord?

Do you mean this thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/runescape/comments/grjhk5/broken_quest_promises_an_update/

If so, I don't think that person put down any screenshots. She also falsely claimed OSRS have a lot of fantastic quests by pointing to the OSRS survey. Note that there is only 1 OSRS quest coming up next month. Nothing else has been revealed for the release this year. We had numerous quests mentioned on last years' RS3 survey too but so what?

The screenshots are there; They're attached to the quest names towards the very beginning of the post.

The claim that OSRS has a lot of fantastic quests is made by literally naming three fantastic quests on OSRS, alongside a fourth upcoming quest. It is clear as day:

Original message details are unavailable.
"...with fantastic quests like A Taste of Hope, Dragon Slayer II and Song of the Elves .
As well as this
, the recent OSRS survey had a lot of questions regarding quests and potential quest lines. They're also about to release Sins of the Father, which seems like it'll be quite an event in terms of the quest itself and the many rewards included in Darkmeyer."


How you can possibly take the exact wording "fantastic quests" that is literally right next to the names of three quests they're talking about, and claim somehow that no fantastic quests are referred to and that it says that in reference to the survey, is absolutely wild. How you can claim that "fantastic quests" refers to the survey when the reference to the survey is literally introduced with the phrase "as well as this," as in, "in addition to the previous point," is just as insane.

And even if the bit about OSRS was factually incorrect, that would be entirely irrelevant to the validity of the posted screenshots confirming the cancellations.

I will not entertain you further on either of these points. If you still don't get it, or would like to pretend as such, you are far, far beyond my help.

@Fat N Wacky

It is the context of Jmod's comment:

"okay yes so there definitely won't be a quest
CALLED
"city of Senntisten".

It seems quite clear they are going to call that quest something else instead of "city of Senntisten", but it doesn't mean that quest is cancelled.

"I think I can safety say
NOW
that there won't be an "azzanadra quest"

https://imgur.com/G9b4AeF

This statement is more conclusive as he said now they are not doing an "azzanadra quest", not a quest called "azzanadra quest". This seems more like a redesign of that quest, not just a rename.

Now that the reddit post did put the quests in the OSRS survey among the "fantastic quests":

"Whilst RS3 seems to be reluctant to produce quests, OSRS seems to be doing the opposite - with fantastic quests like A Taste of Hope
, Dragon Slayer II
and Song of the Elves
.
As well as this, the recent OSRS survey
had a lot of questions regarding quests and potential quest lines. They're also about to release Sins of the Father, which seems like it'll be quite an event in terms of the quest itself and the many rewards included in Darkmeyer. Whilst OSRS does receive these fantastic quests, "


The main point is RS3 doesn't seem to be "reluctant to produce quests". I certainly believe the "City of Senntislen" is being renamed, not cancelled. I can give that person the benefit of the doubt about the plan on the "azzanadra quest" even though the question is not being shown there.
