Btw, for some nice info. A redditter compiled a list of what Mod Osborne talked about in his livestream:

Mod Osborne discussed these things:

Origin of Zamorak's warriors. They're from the depths of Daemonheim.

Mod Osborne discusses that his family named is spelled OSBORNE, not OSBOURNE. At this point I realised I spelled the title of this thread wrong. Oops.

Skargaroth is dead. Tuska is still alive and will be explored in future content.

Development of the Stolen Hearts quest, which was originally called "Ozan's 13" (a pun on Ocean's 13), but was changed because it was too corny.

The new Zaros quest in very early development has the same guy who worked on Stolen Hearts working on it.

Ariane's future role in quests. Some guy asked if the player could marry her. Osborne basically said maybe.

Osbourne likes drinking Lilt, a soft drink.

The new dwarf quest in development has had the best response from the development team since TWW. "It is a banger" according to Mod Osbourne. There is choice-based content in the quest.

There will be a continuation in the Ozan quest series where he will be involved in the desert storyline (Het and Crondis storylines).

In response to Vorago being asked if he's godless or Guthixian, Osbourne says he's Anima Mundian rather than Guthixian.

The Anima Mundi is bleeding out and will have an impact in future storylines.
Being able to change your mind about what god you follow in the 6th age is hugely important to Osborne.

We will find out more about Armadyl soon.

You will be surprised about how high of a tier Seren is on. Probably higher than Armadyl and Bandos according to Mod Osborne.

The godsword blade was made in the Aviansie home world.

Mod Dylan is working on the new Elemental Workshop quest.

Mod Osborne says divination will be released next month (?!).

In a fight between Nomad riding the Corporeal Beast and Nex riding Jad, Nex and Jad would win.

Prifddinas, Vampyrium, Freneskae, Infernal Dimensions are all locations they are looking at with Prifddinas taking obvious priority.

Kara-Meir is here to stay and will be involved in other quests.

There is a connection between the Elder Gods and the Eastern Lands.

You're going to have to wait to find out how Sliske got the Staff of Armadyl.

The beam between Saradomin and Zamorak will move eventually.

Mod Osborne is sad that not as many people play the Fremennik Sagas as quests because he wants to develop more of them.

God bloodlines could be something Jagex explores.

City reworks have slowed down because of RS3, but will be kicked back in. Falador was brought up in the discussion of city reworks as an affluent city based on dwarven works.

When a god dies, there is a massive outpouring of energy, like with Zaros having his energy siphoned into Zamorak, or Guthix dissipating his energy which is connected with the divination skill. Because of this, Mod Osborne doesn't believe they have "souls", but gods of the underworld might be something they look into.

Someone who follows Zaros is "Zarosian". "Zaryte" is a faction, i.e., zealots of Zaros would be "Zaryte."

Mod Osborne confirms there was god romance in the past and that the player already knows about this (probably between Guthix and Seren). He regrets that Armadyl was turned into a male before he had the opportunity to explore the character as a female. Tuska, Seren, and the Elder Gods are all female. Their sex is important to the storyline, but they cannot reproduce.

The staff of the Staff of Armadyl is where the power comes from, NOT the orb.
Mod Osborne believes that not all female gods need to be "sexy." They should be strong, identifiable female characters. Mod Osborne wants to see more of Vanescula. Also thinks Moia is attractive.

On some level you will be able to betray Owen in the next quest.

Armadyl recruited Aviansie from his homeworld.

The Stone of Jas is the strongest of the elder artefacts and will feature in future quests.

Elder Artefacts can be permanently broken. Elder Gods have gone through several Elder Artefacts.

People who don't participate in BoL will not be penalised in future content.

The sword Guthix used to kill Skargaroth will be featured in future content.

Haemalchemy will be featured in future Morytania Elder God content.

The Elder Horn might be the frostenhorn or the horn that Quin has.

Balthazar Beauregard is based on a balrog from JRR Tolkien's works.

One of Icyene, Aviansie, demon home world, vampyre home world, or Freneskae will be featured in the nearish future.

There will be a dragonkin storyline.

Mod Osborne believes that SGS and SoF shouldn't have items that make you look like a Mahjarrat or Guthix, etc.

Drakan is in his tower in Darkmeyer. Mod Ana has plans to feature him in the next Morytania quest.

Let Them Eat Pie and Bringing Home the Bacon used to be more R-rated before it was turned down a notch.

The Elder Artefacts having some kind of soul or sentience have been talked about, and include the TokHaar/Elder Kiln.

There will be a fairy ring to the Naragi homeworld.

Mod Osborne discusses how the Godless have some schism in their ranks and are undecided as a collective unit how to deal with the gods. Destroying the Elder Artefacts is one path. Diplomacy is another path, etc.

Marimbo will be featured in future quest content. He is a god of hedonism. Pest Control island was once a Marimbo site.

There will be a Dragonkin link to the Brimhaven dungeon since the Dragonkin were involved with the creation of dragons.

The Dragonkin are reactionary; they don't prevent people from finding the Stone of Jas, but they stop people after they use it.

The Dragonkin were involved with building the Daemonheim castle, but have nothing else to do with Daemonheim.

Mod Osborne likes the idea of a Daemonheim task set.

Mod Osborne doesn't know why there are Armadylean symbols in Daemonheim, but if he could he would take them off.

The Ferret of Doom is not an Elder God.

The reason why the Mahjarrat haven't reproduced will be explored.

Thok is the pinnacle of the Fremennik peoples.

At this point Mod Osborne has his shirt half unbuttoned and people are telling him to take off his shirt or GTFO.

TWW wasn't voiced because of the number of characters, which would drive costs up too much since those characters are also in other pieces of content and Jagex would need to retain those voice actors/actresses. It also adds weeks further of development. However, all future 6th age content will be voiced.

Mod Osborne has seen Armadyl's, Bandos's, Zaros's, and Marimbo's concept arts. He has a notion of how Armadyl might come back. Armadyl looks imposing. Bandos looks very different compared to the motion comic. He has changed fundamentally; the old Bandos look is not staying.

Moia's mother is in a book of unfinished stories that Jagex has.
Mod Osborne wants to revisit a lot of the minigames, like Fist of Guthix, but doesn't know how high FoG is up on the list.

Mod Osborne says that skill capes are not getting updated as far as he is aware.
"Zaros is evil. Can you confirm?" "Absolutely not. I'm not confirming that. You can't say Zaros is evil. Even in his own eyes, he is for the good of mortals."

The idea of a RuneScape movie isn't new, e.g., a Mahjarrat storyline or something bawdier and with more comedy.
