all of this sounds awesome jagex! im almost as excited about 2013 as i was when i 1st heard about eoc. and i would like to apologize about my rudeness to the sof/sgs, after hearing from runeshark that sof/sgs really was helping runescape i have my faith in you guys again. my only suggestion about sof is to please remove the convert to coin option, it bacicaly is like direct selling.

Snap claws. Do you even know WHY they're updating the combat system? Have you looked at the EOC Q&A livestream? It's not to ruin pures, it's not to look like WoW or any other MMORPG, it's because it's nessisairy. And don't write me off as someone who's only been playing 1 or 2 years, I've had this account for 7 and I've seen "the Old runescape" everyone keeps going on about and experienced it, but we all need to move forward.

Yay, i don't have to listen to the hour livestream. This is really interesting. I am seriously wondering what these skills could be. With what you say about fletching and runecrafting, part of the reason you can't get rid of them is because you'd have about 50k people kill you because they worked so hard on them

Yes! My question got asked!

Okay, so return of tutorial island seems to be a nostalgy trip to older players and doesn't make sense to newer players.

Perhaps Jagex could introduce the NPC:s of tutorial island in new enviroments, like they did to Vannaka. Perhaps Terrova would be a mentor in Wizard's Tower, Brynna a wanderer with a camp in a remote place, Dezzick could be a master miner or something like that and Brace as a monk in Edgeville Monastery. That way, they could be used in new content, yet older players could have the nostalgy trip they wanted.

Transcripts are awesome once again.

Use Tutorial Island for the (Evolution of) Combat Tutorial once it's completed. The Island could be a multi-player single-world instance for all it really matters if you need the landmass for real content.

As the tutorial will need to summarise how multiple skills interact (smithing for off-hands), how prayers and potions work, summoning, etc in addition to combat disciplines, there's need for multiple hotspots players can go between to learn everything, much as the old tutorial island used to work.
