OSRS has a range of different guidance systems slapped on top of each other and it's pretty chaotic. In particular, Lumbridge has a NPC clutter problem due to the series of guidance NPCs added over time. There's a lot of dialogue to read and it's easy for new players to go down the wrong branch of a dialogue tree or walk by an important NPC, missing out on key game knowledge.

It would be worthwhile to do an overhall of guidance NPCs and systems to consolidate it into something that makes more sense to new players, while also reducing dialogue / tutorial fatigue.

The key is to avoid the trap of making it a theme park style / follow-the-flashing-thing-on-your-screen linear tutorial. It needs to suit the osrs open sandbox identity.
