EDIT: About the final hint, what I could understand was "The number of exemply grothier who never made into Gielinor can be measured in 1/1000 of an umpair hour."
This does not make any sense to me. Can someone please transcript it correctly? O_o


Although I'm an English speaker, the hints sometimes aren't very clear at all. I think it was "The number of exemplary gratia who never made it into Gielinor can be measured in a thousandth of an ampere hour".

Can't wait for this quest to be released! A story with depth and a portal to new worlds sounds like something made for me :D
And to protect the Stone until such a time as, near to death, whereby you are relieved of all duties and shall henceforth be returned to your home plane with the gratitude and blessings of Guthix.

I really enjoyed tuning in to the podcast this week whilst training Divination.

Seeing RuneScape expand is definitely something I'm looking forward to: I think that introducing new areas outwith Gielinor adds even more depth to the game's lore. The fact that this is linked to the World Gate is clever; we're already familiar with the portal, to some extent, and this begs us to question what can be revealed if we tap into its power like Guthix did.

Good luck with designing the new quest; I can't wait to hear more about this in the upcoming months. For now, I'm glad that the World Gate is in safe hands. :P

Great podcast! World gate will be very exciting :D . Maybe we can travel now to the place where the Empty Lord has been recovering and waiting to come back again to Gielinor. Can't wait to give him my full support when he returns! :)

well thousandth of an ampere hour is 36 Coulombs so there's 36 of whatever it is... and exemplary gratia I'm not sure, but exemplary means 'representing the best of its kind' and gratia can mean grace. so maybe there's 36 gods we don't know about? or maybe 36 mahjarrat or something, I'm not sure.

Hmm, so no Mass Effect type ending. That would be fine except that's exactly what Mac Walters said nearly the very same thing (Players will have an impact. The choices they make will reflect in the game's ending. We're not going to give them a choice between A, B and C.) and yet that's precisely what they went ahead and did.

Whatever. I'm beyond believing in any promises made by anyone any more. So now we'll get to go through a Stargate.

Runescape, indeed.

the potential in 'the world gate' thingy is mind blowing! so this can be used as a way to allow us to travel to other worlds? The game map is kinda compacted and restricted with what you can do with it. you add something new to the map and it will make problems with 'but now you can get from a to b and train x skill so much faster' taking the game to another map means you can introduce new things without effecting the current game. It also means you can bring things into the game that will not work on the normal map. e.g. sailing/mounts/flying these things will not work on this map without effecting the normal game in a negative way but having the ability to travel to other worlds or other plains will allow options to expand the game into other areas that is not possible on this map! some worlds we may encounter may just be 'stubs' but some may be worth expanding into other areas? new skills? new resources? just new possibilities? as the world will be shards you can do things that you can not do on the normal map? I really hope I am correct in this and it can create a new high tier game? I think so many players would like runescape to actually progress to the next level?
There are 10 types of people in this world. Those that understand binary and those that don't.
