Interesting dev diary, thanks very much!
All the ideas seem quite nice additions to the game. As far as Soul Wars is concerned, will suggestions from last week's forum thread (and reddit and whatnot I guess) still be considered? I've seen some cool stuff being posted. (and not just from me
)
My only concern with the Isle of Souls is that, whilst it would certainly be attractive and very cool to explore the island, putting too much development into it is not going to be very useful. Nobody is going to chop their yew trees here, since there are better places. By all means, make the island explorable, but please don't focus too much on the resources etc. if nobody's going to use them anyway. Grey chinchompas could be useful, but I suppose you would need more spawns than just five, perhaps seven?
Buildable pottery wheel: not sure what the point is.
As for the dungeon, I suggest adding a few pyrefiends and jellies as a nod to the original minigame. The chest sounds interesting.
One idea, to make the dungeon unique, is to add corruption beasts as seen during Nomad's Requiem. You would only be able to damage them whilst praying Piety, but each kill would restore your prayer. Should probably allow them to hit through protection prayers, then. Bizarre Boron Fusswell, scryer extraordinaire. OSRS: POH ideas & RS3 minigames & achievement ideas !

Perhaps you're half right; perhaps we can't win. But we can fight.

There quite a lot here. I'd say mostly good stuff although much of it feels very unnecessary but probably won't do any harm. In the end I have 2 main comments.
1. Collection Log Suggestion
It would be cool if we could show off our collection log. For example a spot in a POH such as a bookcase and other players can view the list.
2. VLS
Once again this is another step in the wrong direction. You've waited for the comments to settle down after the last disaster with this item and continued you push your own agenda with this unwanted item. Only this time you're limiting the voters to the people that will probably vote Yes.
Everything you've done with the VLS shows fragrant disregard of the polling system and the games integrity.
- This item failed multiple polls but you add it to deadman mode and last man standing.
- This item failed even more polls but you add it to bounty hunter.
- This item should be taken out the game but you insist in polling it to only the people that will vote yes.
I understand that much of the PvP community like this item and when it's in an environment only they interact with it could make sense to limit a vote to just them. However this item has been so strongly rejected by the community on multiple occasions that I am genuinely baffled that you're continuing this crusade.
You should know this is the completely wrong approach.
You should refund players with the item
You should remove this item RIP Forums
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.
