      they explained a few weeks back somewhere that it was because when people die they slowly lose their memories and eventually the name of the city got forgotten so people would say "um" while trying to remember it so it just stuck as the new name.

      @@darthnix "In Roman religion, the genius (Latin: [ˈɡɛnɪ.ʊs]; plural geniī) is the individual instance of a general divine nature that is present in every individual person, place, or thing.[1] Much like a guardian angel, the genius would follow each man from the hour of his birth until the day he died.[2] For women, it was the Juno spirit that would accompany each of them. Octavius Caesar on return to Rome after the final victory of the Roman Civil War at the Battle of Actium appeared to the Senate to be a man of great power and success, clearly a mark of divinity. In recognition of the prodigy they voted that all banquets should include a libation to his genius. In concession to this sentiment he chose the name Augustus, capturing the numinous meaning of English "august." The household cult of the Genius Augusti dates from this period. It was propitiated at every meal along with the other household numina.[13] Thus began the tradition of the Roman imperial cult, in which Romans worshipped the genius of the emperor rather than the person."

    While I am looking forward to Necromancy, I am worried that it seems that every concent season will have an area that it focusses on now.. So no stand alone updates anymore (it seems), so things like the Gnome or Penguin Quests will not get a follow-up or Finale unless there is a season that can be focused on it... We'll see how it goes, but I just hope this can be managed well over time as well! I have faith in the mods, but I also know to be sceptical! For now: grats on necromancy, can't wait to get my hands on it! :D

    • @Hirokey123
      @Hirokey123 Год назад

      Well yes and no, this is more a way to focus resources to crank out content at the cadence people like. You're right it does prevent 1 and done follow ups because that format doesn't work it just results in them losing focus/chance to continue and we're 10 years without a finish then. The core point of the storyline/seasons focus is to have a clear start, middle, and end within a reasonable time frame of 1-3 years. However they can do smaller seasons of a few months to a year between bigger story seasons, Gnomes, Penguin, and Desert were all examples of that like Gnomes would need at least a year because of Arposandra is a year of content by itself but Desert could be just a 6th month tale cleaning up the current quests and focusing on the finale. In fact we almost got Desert over legacy of Zamorak but we didn't for a couple reasons, one being that we needed to have an epilogue to aftermath and setup the fort forinthry story, and another because Desert is Rowley's baby and he was stuck on necromancy so it be a desert story without rowley and no one wants that.

It's a skill so you'll be chipping away at this content for awhile but the next content update that comes following the august drop of the skill is going to be using picking back up with the fort and it's second season focused on necromancy stuff, modest necromancy level requirements will be needed for that content.

    But for real, although I still stand by my above comment, Necromancy is so hyped! I can't wait to delve into it as a player who started back in 2006! Jagex and their handling of RuneScape 3 for many years after around 2015 kinda burned me out and I lost faith in the devs and the game, but around the start of the pandemic it seems as though a new spark has come through and reignited some of the old ways of Jagex. Archaeology was a massive success, the story, although with minor gripes with what feels like rushed pacing, of (E)GWD3 was incredible, quests have been largely great again lately, and there's more communication with the players again! I'm excited for Necromancy and the direction RuneScape 3 is going in again, and I haven't felt that in so long.

      Last time they changed combat, rs3 was released alongside eoc. In my opinion, this is the first step towards rs4. Once they workout necro completely and fix any problems, I think a huge graphical update with unreal engine will occur. Also the map will be expanded into something like an entire underworld the size of the current map. The city of Um will just be the first city and possible a city in the sky in the future. Then all other combat skills will be updated to 120 and weapons/armour will scale to t120.

      @Hirokey123 Год назад

      Gods don't have afterlives, to have an afterlife you need a soul and gods don't have souls they are souls. Essentially when you become a god your soul becomes overcharged/so powerful it swallows and replaces your physical body. This removes mortal limits like lifespan, disease, a set physical form, etc... and turns you into essentially raw magical energy allowing your power to over time grow exponentially. The trade off is that you essentially ARE your soul, killing you means your soul is being killed and so no soul no afterlife. Gods get unlimited power/potential and eternal life in the mortal realm, but trade away their ability to have an eternal afterlife.

      In every appearence the queen had except for the recent quest line, Joke Queen Ellamaria was always a terrible and horrible person, and that was the point of her character.
      But they had this "brilliant" idea, to shoehorn her as the Raptor. It is a terrible joke that they want to be taken seriously, with terrible writing forcing us to accept her. I threw up at the dramatic reveal. Not only are we not allowed to have a cool male character anymore, but we are forced to accept a horrible female character as a good person now. Question it and you will just get snobbish explanations.
      The Queen was never heroic or had any reason to have level 150 strength. Certain Jmods wanted this because they have a huge feminist bias, no other way around it, but they will never admit to it. Not Impressed, and disappointed.

      @@syruscoy1244 By every appearance you mean a single quest, she is a terrible person (and let's be real she isn't even that terrible she is just a british 80's sitcom trope) the only other quest she appears in before this ques line she is neutral. The current questline which draws its characterization the novels, making many references to them, where she is impatient and rude but also heroic, strong, brave, and one of the people who helped save Varrock which is quite literally why Roald fell in love with her. Seeing her care, passion, and heroics despite being little more than peasant spoke greatly to him.
      Next you aren't forced to accept her, Ellamaria is not a good person you don't need to be a good person to be a hero she is like the raptor in that despite being blunt, impatient, and rude (the only difference is she speaks with Fire and the Raptor persona is stoic) they are ultimately heroes just realist ones who don't believe you can save the world and everyone but that you should focus on saving what you can and revel in the glory and battle of being an adventurer. Understand they aren't trying to make you like Ellamaria or say she is a good person, she is still rude, blunt, not easily impressed, and impatient as always (though they did clarify her Queen and Raptor are exaggerated in their rudeness). But now she is a character with proper depth and stuff they can work with to build a story around and that's all they wanted, for the queen of the most powerful human kingdom to be a character they could use in a story about that human kingdom.
      You are allowed to have a cool male character, in fact Mod Jack took that feedback very seriously about RS lacking a more stoic traditionally masculine male character and there was a lore council meeting on it they discussed plans for having such a character in the future (not the near future as 2023 is locked but more likely 2024 where plans can still shift a bit). He came on the lore discord today after the meeting and shared with us his notes like his triangle of masculinity breaking it down into strong, smart, sexy, and we thought about different characters that fit in 1, 2, or all areas. Like MCU Loki was more in smart+sexy area and when asking for a good middle ground character we had suggestions like Indiana Jones and James bond who hit all 3 core ideas though neither quite hit the stoic which was sort of a subset of the strong category. Was a very fun conversation dissecting famous male characters in media both traditional and non-traditionally masculine.
      The raptor was never going to be what you wanted him to be, he was concepted early on as being a woman in armor and they knew the day would come that they'd reveal that and that when it happened it couldn't be a reveal that hinged on him being a woman, there had to be more and being the superhero alter ego of the queen of varrock as a way to live the life she wanted while still being Roald's queen IS more. But just because the Raptor could never ultimately be what you wanted it doesn't mean that you can't have a character like that, and that's what the lore council's meeting was about.

    Is it too much to ask for some devs who actually the game, these videos are embarrassing.. *I'm supposed to know what's going on because I'm making this game* "something completely left field that has nothing to do with THIS game"

      @@apophis456 mate Im not even personally affected. Im not rich enough to have fsoa etc. Its still bad game development to nerf things ages later after investment. Be smarter, shill

      @@sethc2241 if you paid any attention to the nerfs you’d notice that the FSOA DPS is roughly the same, you just swap back to dual wielding. Animate dead needed the nerf because it was too strong, but rather than understand how game development works, which if you did you’d know changes and number balancing takes time, you wanna complain.
      So yeah, if actually thinking about things rationally makes me a shill, then by all means I’m a shill. Not some kid complaining on the internet about things that he just admitted don’t even affect him 🤡🤡🤡
