So we all know Guthix named us the "World Guardian" before his demise, he also knew full well that he'd die and did nothing to stop it, which he easily could have.
I believe he did this knowing that we, being special can change the face of Gielinor, the gods tremble at our power for we can slay them, we are immune to their powers, such as Zaros' passive effect of "making others follow him"
I follow him of course, but of my own choice.

The gods are flawed, not even my own Empty Lord is perfect, but we can be thanks to what Guthix set in motion, I believe that a change is coming soon, possibly effecting time, based on the events of certain quests, and the most recent one "Desperate Times"
It seems we'll be using it, and I think I know what for!

We'll be reversing what happened to the Wilderness, Zamoraks damage will be undone, Forinthry will beautiful again.

Zaros will possibly reach Elder-Godhood, or come close only to have us stop him.

We, the "World Guardian" will ascend into Godhood, or Demi-Godhood, and become the next Guthix to keep balance in Gielinor.

But that's just a theory.
For the glory of the Empty Lord!

According to desperate times, Guthix himself tells us he could not maintain balance through action or inaction. He only caused more misery. He did not see himself as the savior of Geilinor so he appointed a mortal, us, to the task. Per Jmods, we are the one creature that is not capable of ascending to any type of god hood. And theres really no reason for us to. We can compete on level with any current god and still dont understand the full depths of our power. Weve only used its offensive capabilities once, against sliske and have been unable to tap back into that since. I agree, Zaros will eventually ascend, but from what Death says in endgame, his ascension wont last long and he will die shortly after. I have seen the dark universe yawning, where the black planets roll without aim;
Where they roll in their horror unheeded, without knowledge or lustre or name.

That makes sense, and so then by what you said that means we're more than Gods?
We are an ever-changing, ever-evolving being that can harness the powers of any god and withstand whatever a god throws at us with relative ease.

Guthix must have known this, and that's why he accepted his death?
For the glory of the Empty Lord!

I like the notion but I get the feeling that something like restoring the wildy, or restoring Morytania, isn't in the cards ever. It would be way complicated to create an instance that large. Some massive change to the game world that varies by player is way hard to code.

They said outside of the game that the player will never be an actual god. arguably we already are a demigod.
