There is a thread on the future game updates forum discussing the feeling that recent quests have been rushed.
Original message details are unavailable.
It certainly doesn't feel like quests are being rushed from an 'insider' point of view. Development teams are spending a lot of time & effort into making sure our quests meet the communities expectations (which we know are high)!
The 200th quest promises to be something out of this world, though.
This is mod infinity's reply. It is called "Why are they being rushed?" if you are interested.
Mod Infinity hasn't been at Jagex very long so he hasn't seen what it used to be. Also it hardly matters if it seems that way from an inside pov the players pov is all that matters and it is clear we view them as rushed so we are getting fewer quests a year that also seem rushed which makes no real sense and is awful.

The quests are becoming better quality though (visually, aurally, depth of story and dialogue...). You can't deny one Fate of the Gods is pretty spectacular and would take more work than a score of 07 quests.
But I agree with what you're saying, and in my perfect world, there would be at least 20 quests every year of that impressive RS3 quality. Voice acted

I can agree that the quests are becoming better visually, dialogue and to some extent depth of story (throw some god-related stuff everywhere). And FOT* was amazing. But in terms of sustainability, the fact that they're throwing large chunks in that back in the day would be like... yeah they're never gonna release that but keep teasing. And at some point this depth isn't going to work with just appearances because there will be either too much that we know briefly and never see or in the less likely case, they'll run out of ones that appear interesting.
And while it would be nice to have alot of quests, I think that would just further contribute to the issues I mentioned above, although the RS3 quality part would definitely ideally kept. Dash - Founder of the NomNom Family | T7 + 3 Avatars | Recruiting Social and mature members |

Visually and in terms of what I'd call bonus stuff but not essential stuff I'd agree in general though not in all cases. Story wise I disagree and dialogue I disagree. FOTGs would take more work graphically sure but in terms of actual content it wasn't impressive and I think it is awful story wise completely letting down the build up of Zaros' return.
The story is less connected and shallower than before and mystery is entirely thrown out in favour of quick answers. Characters are in general better but I prefer plot to characters so... And it's not like all characters lacked depth before.
