[@KraytRiver]

I completely missed it. Thanks for pointing that out! Very cool little fact!

[@KraytRiver]

@@fakenamerealchungus9851 in a past quest he stole the statue for the Queen of Varrak. Before the quest the intro had statues on both sides, but now doesn't. So he re-recorded the footage for the intro for episodes after that quest.

I think the option to gamble with Harold does make sense, though it is kind of weird that you still have the option to get him a drink without knowing that he's a drinker and a gambler

[@poro3246]

You can assume that anyone in a pub is a drinker, but you can't really assume he has a gambling addiction as well. I guess at time of this quest release basically every quest had a step where you had to get someone in a pub drunk. This is maybe their way of saying 'haha not that easy this time!'

[@katelynna10000]

[@MythrilZenith]

Fun fact about this quest - the Blurberry Special makes it so he's so drunk he still always say you won at gambling, even if you lost. So while you can certainly brute force it with gambling straight up, getting him the special makes sure you aren't at the whim of the dice.

[@pktrainerpk5supersus459]

the fruit is op af White Tree Fruit is a food acquired by picking the White tree in the Varrock palace garden, after the Garden of Tranquillity quest. The tree grows one fruit approximately every 5 minutes and can hold up to 4 fruit at a time. Picking one grants 12 Farming experience. When eaten, it restores 5-10% run energy and heals 3 health. It is a slightly more accessible alternative to Strange fruit if players do not have access to Great Kourend. Due to being non-tradeable unlike other fruit, it cannot be turned to banknotes neither by Tool Leprechaun nor in bank. White tree fruit can be used as an ingredient when making Supercompost.

[@exantiuse497]

By op af you mean useless, I presume. You spend more run energy running to the tree to pick the fruits than you get from eating them. That is sad

[@sandman366]

"I dropped the IOU in the basement and he magically has it back in his pocket - whatever." One of my favorite conversations in RS3 (the conversation in question is, unfortunately, not in OSRS to my knowledge) is with the guy you get the Dusty Key from. In 2017, they made an update where he can finally go outside. If outside, and you ask for the key back from him, he calls you out for "do you really think people have nothing better to do than pick up after you? Your narcissism is showing. Do you really think the world revolves around you?" Your reply? "Look, just check your pockets. Trust me." Poor guy is visibly confused when he somehow has the key again to give to you.

[@stepmotherrock]

Can't wait to see the elven quests plague city on

[@Sjors_]

Yeah, in the early days of Runescape the game was a lot less complicated, fewer moving parts and all that, so the developers designing the quests were like "eh, the players will figure it out, there's not that many possibilities to try!" But with every new item, area, and NPC added, the possible permutations of things you can try increase exponentially, so that philosophy is not very future-proof, so to speak. Add to that the antiquated game design notion that players always need to do things in a specific order and aren't allowed to skip steps even if they could make an educated guess for where to go next (like in this case asking the sherpa for help or getting the guard drunk) and the frustration is complete. Jagex doesn't often go back and adjust their old content unless it's glaringly broken or they have a specific reason to re-do it, especially not in Old School since the whole point is that the old stuff remains as-is. RS3 has a more modernized design and is hence a lot better about pointing you where to go, marking which items and NPCs are relevant for which quests with little icons, and even giving you the option to preview which items you need in the quest log before you begin (which isn't accurate 100% of the time, but it's usually reliable). The flip side, of course, is that this can at times feel a little 'handhold-y' and overly safe.

it would un-ironically be a good premise for a single player game.. you play as the last player in an mmorpg, the npcs have slowly gone a bit rampant, some of them appear to be becoming sentient but you can't be sure, there's a hint of some sort of controlling power, like an ai.

[@why_wait]

Great series your probably quite right about how the game forces you to go back and forth. I guess if you just had the correct items already or say brute forced the combination the quest would be even shorter than it is. While it technically would work the players character seems awful dumb at times
