The game uses elements from the Archaeology ability in the quest. Players must dig up and restore historic artefacts dug up in the earth. However, Archaeology provides some of the main themes of the adventure, which is to uncover the past. The player with OSRS Accounts will be investigating the untold background of Orthen and the dragonkin, gaining knowledge about the plot Kerapac has been up to, but as well as the long-standing history and the mysterious race of Gielinor.
RuneScape has provided a wide range of content which has been based on archaeological themes. The Archaeology skill actually provides us a series of consistent techniques to make new content that follows the same theme. This is fantastic.
As Desperate Measures was released in the middle of this month Jagex have also unveiled concept images for props. These included weapons as well as potions and an item that resembled an abacta tank in Star Wars. What do they mean?
Dragonkin have always been more technologically advanced than many other races. While I'm unable to provide details at this point but as part of the quest, you'll be able to learn about what they are used for and also interact with them in the course of the narrative.
The dragonkin escaped through the devastation of their world and also the birth of our own - an achievement of incredible technology and tenacity that the people of Gielinor can't even hope to rival.
Are there any big-scale design changes that are in the works for this update or something that players haven't seen before?
Each of our quests is unique gameplay and are often accompanied by unique design challenges. A portion of this quest is a an element of strategy that doesn't exist in other games. We're also preparing for several future pieces of content that tie into the storyline, although we're not going to launch these right away alongside the quest.We had been discussing Desperate Measures when we were creating Desperate Times, and we'd talked about the story of both prior to that. When we design new content, we first draft a pitch which is passed on for review by stakeholders before getting a approve, and production will usually begin immediately.
With Desperate Measures we shuffled between development to ensure we could help other projects, like Archaeology and Farming/Herblore 120. So we had to modify the design several times to fit the timeline we had to work with. Regarding the bigger story the lore council has been discussing the details of the story and the direction it's heading for a while now.
The quest was in plan/synopsis form for a long time. As the team began the developing the entire thing began to flesh out the synopsis into an entire experience. They had to come up with how to prototype, design and implement unique gameplay elements, and discover ways to present the information from the high-level lore of the game in a way that is accessible and engaging.
How was the experience to do this work in the midst of the onset of the pandemic's global spread? Have you encountered particular challenges?
It's definitely not perfect. Making content is an art and this kind of creative thinking really benefits from having people around to share ideas and OSRS Power Leveling with. Although Zoom is a great tool however, it doesn't have the same kind of connection to people, which means it is more difficult to share ideas. There have been a few hiccups in development because of something not being translated correctly across Zoom that I doubt would have occurred in person.
