  • Hey guys. From 2013 to present in OSRS (old school runescape) there has been 213 polls where the player base can vote on what content makes it into the game, and how. In this video we're going to go over things that didn't make the cut. "Lost Runescape Content" if you will.

    Hey guys, I misspoke and said sailing is CONFIRMED (got ahead of myself). It has not been completely confirmed to be introduced via a poll yet, it merely won out of the three proposed ones in order to be looked into further and fleshed out etc. Thanks guys!

      Pretty sure you're wrong on the fight kiln too, in that on release it only offered a new BIS meele cape, not individual mage/ range/ meele capes

      @lildmckay Před rokem +3

      That poll was pretty misleading. It asked to vote for the skill you want to see fleshed out and said you could pick more than one. I chose both sailing and shamanism because I wanted to see them both fleshed out a bit more to see what direction they would go. Pretty disappointed that the poll was actually “which one do you want?”

    I've been playing OSRS since day 1, I even voted for it to return. I had forgotten some of these polls. Hard to believe it's been 10 years.
    Fun fact, at the start of OSRS '07scape' the most popular way of making gold at the start was stealing silk at Ardy. I remember everybody rushing to Ardougne for that gp.
    The launch day of OSRS was one of my favorite memories of RuneScape as a whole.

    Neat little history thing, remember back when the rooftop agility NPC would shout random things like "idea by user bigredjapan" every. Single. Time. Someone would jump down the rooftop, flooding the screen with annoying text. I messaged the guy in-game like 9 years ago when he had PM on and said cool he won a contest but the NPC was annoying, then shortly after that the npc stopped speaking dialogue above his head. Kinda feel bad for telling a guy to tell his in-game npc to shut up lol but I think he must of directed the idea to a Jmod because of the quick change, so maybe he didn't like it either.

    That shield was only useful in combination with charged rune gauntlets which also came from fog. It allowed the rune scim max hit to go from 28 to 29 I think? It was a long time ago but I remember you needed both the shield and the gauntlets for it to matter. That also includes the strength amulet, strength potion, and having 99 strength. It became obsolete when the gravite equipment was released with dungeoneering.

    I think tob would be in a much better place with its rewards if some of these passed or at least had tuning. The judgement prayer would have been interesting if they toned it down and removed the weird effect, I know it took 4+ attempts to pass a ranged glove bis but Nex is so stacked already there would be nothing wrong if it came from tob. I think the potions are fine as well although probably best not coming from a raid

    I am still unbelievably pissed that the Trading Post was removed. It was literally perfect for people that actually want to play the game as an MMO. You didn't need to screw around with Zybez where people were always offline/private off/already sold and not marked on the site... BUT, you could actually interact with other players. imo, the Grand Exchange was literally the worst update to come to OSRS. You can argue that the playerbase would be smaller and I would agree. I would not find that to be an issue. There would only be people that actually CARE about the social aspect/joruney of Runescape, instead of these zoomers who want the max cape asap and then instantly burn out after or burn out on their way to it - all the while voting crappy updates into the game.
