sometimes... would be great..

First topic message reminder :

could we like, do one thing done before beginning with a new one x_x.. I've seen and read many unfinished quests, locations, events, activites.

thank you, im out of ideas right now.. I hate that.. -.- *sigh*

Seeing as we've only drilled less than 0,1% into the Earth, it's entirely feasible something would live inside

Quite possible!

The world's actually flat though.

so... I want to make something.. I want to make a change.. make the future Runescape


and yes I meant the future in runescape..

The Mech Age? I don'ts know!!!

I foresee Gielinor going the way of Yu-buisk in ~300 years

300 years?!

We've got an almighty race fighting, people messing around with ancient artefacts, a god about to be reborn, portals to realms filled with monsters.

Heck, we'll be lucky to get grandchildren.

nice thought Ruy


well 3mpty it seems interesting about that age of mech.. but is still Runescape named Runescape.. or should it be like Runescape III: Mech Era

ofc gnomes and dwarves have their steem and things, and that humans have a little of both. Are we still fighting with swords and shields or are we going over to heavy weapons (still large blades and spears). Or even to guns and rifles.. (own skill)

okey, what ever we do we need to figure out WHAT skills are included in a mech-like Runescape.

All that combat skill still - only maybe different things in it..
some kind of magic skills
mining and smithing - still the same, maybe some new ores ?
runes - depending on magic
summoning - depending on the surroundings
herblore - depending on the surroundings (if the nature is capable of herbloring?)

hunting - depending on the surroundings
prayer - yes, still the same?
agility - still the same
thiefing - sts
construction - maybe something new, in steam and other new things
dungeoneering - well, yes.. maybe.. its like dwarves who have mined through some ancient discovery (of the RS2 dungeoneering) and a new challenge are upon us...
cooking, fishing - cooking yes, fishing.. depending on the surrounding waters.. poison - not posion

Farming - depending on the surrounding
ranger - depending on the surrounding, the battle style and could be switch to some marksman or something.
crafting - yes,

woodcutting and firemaking - firemaking is depending on woodcutting and woodcutting is depending on the surrounding

slayer - depending


have I missed one? cant figure it out if

Spoiler:

: D

The Mech Age is like... futuristic. Mech means like robots and stuff. I mean, I have conceptualised the Mech Age, but I don't put much thought into it because the Modern Era still needs though.

RuneScape 3 shouldn't be in the mech age, you just asked what RuneScape would look like in the future.

or sry I just did 1+1 Okey in what era are RS3 in then still medieval

Well, I thought that was what we were discussing on the other thread... that it was in no specific era.

damnit.. i cant take one thread from another.. its just something between then... right..

Well, it would most likely be a post magic-nuclear-war scenario

like a "magic" cold war in Runescape? What if Runescape had a ice age?? even if the cold war wasnt under only wintertime but cuz it was so.. "cold" feelings or something..

Post means after...

Also, are we still talking about the future? Or the actual present day?

yea post - after - pro - before.. sry missed the pro part.. idk are we before your history brief or after it (2000 something... eariler on this thread or was it in the other...) it all is surrounding RS3 i think and hope?

Umm...


The timeline I wrote a page or so back was;
2169 - Current date in RS2, irrelevant otherwise.
2552 - Date of the pregame/tutorial/our childhood quest.
2570 - Date of present day RS3.

(The year gaps might be too large. The 2570 was chosen for trivial reasons, so I think the 2552 would have to be made closer.)

(events happening now in present day would be postponed... things like the ritual would be about to happen)

(I don't really know why I set it in the future, I guess I wanted to keep all historical events architecturally accurate, but leave time for technology to evolve before the current events - so, in 2169 is was medieval, and in the present day it's semi-industrial)

almost 400 years.. and what have happened in 390 years? are any documents left of the old world? are varrock, falador etc still known as "ancient metropolises" or do we need to find new names for these big cities, or do we even have them on the same place as before?? Yea supporting the 18 year after at RS3..

okey, we talked about the industrial world coming at hand, dwarves and gnomes and everything. Is this realistic or do we need to step back? Do we need to learn everything from the beginning again? IF nothing is left behind (any ruins from RS2)...

questions questions questions.. amazing ideas though

2169 - Current date in RS2, irrelevant otherwise.
2203 - The end of the 2nd Godwars, keeping track of time was forgotten as most of Gielinor's inhabitants lost view of the sun.
2554 - Nothing really just a date that is awfully a lot like 2217.

so we are still somewhere around 390 years after our RS2 current date

RS2 isn't destroyed, nothing particularly bad happens imbetween. Life just carries on for 400 years - with some new events to fill the gap, obviously.

Key stories would be postponed for the new present day... the mahjarrat ritual hasn't happened yet, Zaros hasn't been contacted, etc. It's all still due to happen. Larger cities like Varrock and Lumbridge would still exist - obviously different due to graphical updates, but the updates could include evidence of age (such as ruined walls). Most places would probably still exist, though.

Basically, 2169's story is being copied and pasted into 2570. The advance in time is just to explain technological advancement.

the goblins has not yet invaded Lumbbridge? they are so curious down there for those goblins (ty runescape.wikipedia)

Goblins attack Lumbridge, apparently, in the year (2)169... killing Lozar, one of three survivors of Crandor. So, this still has to happen in 2570 surely? Else we can't have Dragon Slayer!

well they are just afraid of a complete invasion.. (in my "ascension Quest" the player stands infront of the invasion and are told to defend it, then falador against goblins and black knights and then defend the last siege of Varrock. Against orc and alot of orcs.. (then the player need to kill a orc general in wilderness, then be killed and ascend to Gielinor Valhall) I liked that quest.. :'| )

I don't think it was an invasion, I think it was just a raid. Goblins are scavengers after all.

oh well, just wonder if lumbbridge fought back during the 300 years or if they still are scared?

anything else that has happend during 3 0 0 years?

Goblin's don't attack during those 300 years. And I don't think humans would fight back... aside from the initial raid obviously, 'cause it wasn't goblins declaring war, it was just one group.

okey, so is Lumbridge any more developed? Further defences or?...

anything else
