Jagex, what are you going to do with RuneScape in terms of, do you have plans for 2021 only or just because the RSWiki doesn't say anything for 2022, is there any plans that haven't been made public yet that you want implemented in 2022?

MINIGAMES
What's going to become of old minigames, are any of the totally unpopulated minigames being to be stripped from RS like Mobilzing armies or do you have plans to reintroduce them, rework them?

QUESTS
Where are we going with Grand Master Quests? Is there going to be any follow ups to certain quests this year or in 2022 for Grand Master Quests, Master, Experienced?

The Crater in Lumbridge
Is that one area going to from now on always hold certain holiday events in it from now on or will there be spread holiday, seasonal bits of fun that are around the game located in other places like old times or is it going to be in the crater almost always from now on? I mean, it's been getting a few summers attention, a few holidays attention but back when I was a player at 10 years old there was places like Varrock, Falador, the Goblin Village, Draynor, has all this been brushed into 1 area to be able to easily design our next happy times?

Skilling/Skills
Construction
Many people say it needs a rework, they said at times what kind of content should be added. I see Seasonal Skins as a reward though.
Skins for your house that are events in holiday times that make you unlock the house décor and feel of those months!
Halloween, Christmas, Thanks Giving, St. Patrick's Day, Valentines Day.

I've heard of the Woodcutting and Fletching rework, but the RSWiki had it removed at some point, that had me curious as to why that even happened, is it postponed for later?

Are old quest areas going to still for a long period of time have their blocky tiling in things like Caves?
I've seen some caves that have the square chunks of mapping not filled in with detail and they've been that way for long times
Played RuneScape 2 when it came out a few days ago, that’s also when RuneScape Classic was still playable!

And sure you guys have updated the looks of the game both inside areas and outside on the main world really nicely, but I'm talking about the looks of the underground areas, there's caves that had to do with old quests and their stuck in time although with their chunky and blocky-ness.

I've got this last question

Looking at what's happened to OSRS, it had a majorly large new area added to it after prifddinas and its beautiful from what I've seen in it both from videos and the game itself, but RS3 is just being looked at for places that look interesting and the players want something to happen to these reasonable places that although are dead, look to them like they deserve to live with a sense of liveliness, something that will get these dead areas to refill with players again as their now altered differently, prifddinas isn't just a cube anymore in OSRS's map back when it was 2007, it's finally finished in both RS3 and in OSRS as a whole piece of content we'll play in, so tell me this:
Will RS3 ever have a chance to receive quite a chunk of extra land like OSRS did or is it likely that with so many updates to do to the game right now, that it'll be however possible, just years later to get on making though or something?
OSRS got to have at least 1 half of the original game map copied and it got put to the left end and its now a whole map but with like an extra 50% of the new map added to it.
Will RS3 get to feel like a whole new area on the main game world get that big new chunk of land?

RS Wiki is not a future content reveal site. Most revealed content other than the ones from bigger reveal events like the Runefest are often not there, the "missing" content includes former OSRS JMod MikeD's famous Roadmaps. You should watch official Jagex livestreams and trailers, and pay attention to Runescape future update blogs and reveal news on the official Runescape website for better information. RS3 certainly has plans after 2021. They already mentioned bigger and even bigger threats after the Elder God Wars this year. They also have revealed plans on 0.1s tick and further updates after the Avatar Refresh. They also told us about Runescape Anytime, Everywhere... including RS3 on Console within the next couple of years.

Jagex have talked about minigames and the summary is they aren't focusing on old minigames. They will rather make new D&Ds and similar content like Big Game Hunter and Herby Werby. OSRS has been copying the similar successful D&D formula from RS3 recently too with Shooting Stars and Tempoross.

Quests and lore based content are definitely in RS3's future agenda. They are focusing on quality rather than requirements though. As such, we should see more high quality story arcs as in Desperate Times, Desperate Measures, City of Senntisten and such that give us hours of exploration fun and closely connected rich stories instead of some uninspiring isolated quests with high skill requirements that lock out a large chunk of lower level players.

Holiday events don't always occur in the Lumbridge Crater. The last Easter event was in South Varrock near the Archaeology main camp. The last Halloween event was in Dragnor Manor. The April Fools events have been all over Gielinor in different years. Burthorpe is always another event site. The last Christmas event was held in the GE. Our last Valentine's Event was in many places of Gielinor with us spending the majority of time down in the Varrock Museum basement.

There have been many construction updates going on, only that Jagex is not too keen on doing them inside our POH. For example, we just got a construction update on Dragonkin Cannons in the first front of GWD3. Even OSRS is taking construction outside the POH with Mahagony Homes, outdoor lecterns and such following RS3's leading footsteps.

I never heard of any woodcutting and fletching "rework". Again, the RS Wiki isn't meant to be a content reveal source. It can be updated by anybody.If you have a question why they mentioned the woodcutting and fletching rework and then removed it, you should contact its admins or you can update it yourself too. AFAIK, the Wiki doesn't remove their articles even when the projects are cancelled. For example, there are still an OSRS Wiki Page on Sailing and one on Warding although these skills were cancelled. So the chance is the RS Wiki people just removed some pages that wasn't correct information, not that anything announced was cancelled or prosponed.

Graphics of old content will only be updated when there is new content tied into it.

There have been numerous new areas added to RS3, far more than OSRS actually. Have you been to Anachronia, the 5 (very soon to be 6) Archaeology Digsites, The Arc, Manaphos, Daemonheim. Senntisten, planes light years away from Gilinor such as Freneske, Tarddiad, Kethsi, among numerous new underground maps? Of note, the RS3 Gielinor has a 3D map now as we have a Stormguard Citadel map miles high up the sky. We can even fly up there. Pretty cool! :)

Greetings!

A little birdie told me you had some questions about stuff regarding possible future updates on the Wiki disappearing. Things are usually not deleted, and if they are there are usually good reasons for it happening.
Do you remember on which page(s) this was? I can take a look through its history to find out what happaned.


(If you happen to have further questions about the Wiki in the future, feel free to address them in my thread in General, link in the description.)

So ya, I have seen the new areas, anachronia, senntistens new dig site spots, I’ve definitely had my share of time playing in all the new holiday events and they’ve shown very look looks, they were really fun, totally packed with great new stuff.
There was so much stuff added with the release of archaeology that it’s mind blowing, there’s already over 100 different items, loads of new achievements to complete and I had mostly all of them complete aside from giving all collectors a certain amount of items each time to get a given to collectors amount of times I’ve given them fixed relic lists kind of score.

As soon as gwd3 got it’s little share of archaeology contents with the stuff to get from the new spots, the new lore with these things, it’s really cool and boy was I however upset to see that I don’t have all the afchaeology achievements done again lolol, with the addition of more and more content though, I can see it’ll be a while before Jagex pauses giving Archaeology new content.

As soon as they figure they’ve added quite a big new handful of items and things to do into archaeology, when the time comes that they’ll work on other things, I understand that things like construction may have its future of changes in terms of what will come to player owned houses and what will give back its awesomeness with a little bit of a change to how it is that people now find tedious and boring somewhat.
It was just like EoC, mod mark said in the RuneScape historical timeline video that he noticed that a major thing the players wanted from RuneScape was a change with the combat system, they really wanted the turns taking of attacking monsters and players to not be so easily just done and they wanted something fun to be added to combat that will give it more life and something fun to enjoy from training it, while many people hated it, there is luckily legacy mode which Jagex made sure everyone can enjoy skipping over to if they prefer the older combat experience over

EoC and so that’s recognized by many as something Jagex made sure to fix up a little more newly so that we can all love a new way to train combat.

I’ve seen the thing where Jagex mentioned that there will be several new quests and storylines put with them in the future, but these quests have their starting as new coming quests additions to the game where they’re micro sized pieces of adventuring to do in the game, at some point they’ll get their additional sides of wuestingnadded to them and that can change the requirements table to a bit more intermediate to high, master or grand master, but idk if Jagex is approaching the idea atm to add new grand master quest content yet, their really cleaning the game of various oversights, bugs, messiness the game currently consists of and so I applaud seeing their working on cleaning their content before adding more and man though, so much content though in the game exists and it’s a 20 year old game after all, there is so much stuff internally in the game that Jagex knows that what the players are reporting to them as bugs are the slight deep end reaching bits of bugginess that could stress rhe game a little bit, so I understand it’ll be a while before Jagex vacuums all the dustiness off new and old content, I for one can’t wait to see what’s going to become of the year 2022!

So many players fantasize about RuneScapes future and they make interesting comments and web pages saying why they think we may someday see RuneScape 3 re-evolving again to a new stage with new grounds where it’s now rs4 and there will be talking of new skills to release after archaeology, new places, new mini games.

I’m not tired of seeing this current content, I’m not even sad that some things are a little tweaked to make certain differences, frankly I agree with almost all changes wants to make, unlike a lot of people however, they definitely let Jagex know that they can be picky and tell them what needs to go and what’s needs adding or

The first 4 digsites came with the release of Archaeology in March 30, 2020. Orthen digsite came 7 months later. Then Senntisten digsite opened yesterday 10 more months later. New digsites may come, but probably won't be a new one many months from now.

Plenty of new outdoor construction and player owned content have been mentioned, with some polled. Further expansion of POP into undersea content is certainly more interesting than boring POH.

The choices of players on EOC over Legacy Mode in RS3 is extremely obvious. Jagex actually removed many Legacy Mode only worlds due to lack of players. It is natural selection. RS3 players' actions speak for their opinions on legacy content. Jagex won't make any content based on Legacy Mode anyway. They have said it several times. Players are actually asking for better or the replacing the Tick System. This is actually what RS3 is working on, not legacy mode combat.

Players want new content. Even OSRS is working on new content. There is no reason why RS3 waste much time in old content just a few players asked for it. If old school content is so good, why is OSRS changing?
