The people can get what they want, right here at home on the P99 brand.

What happens when Velious has been sucked dry? I hope the devs can come up with some awesome custom content.

We had 5 years of Kunark with no lack of players and guild drama bullshit raiding the same mobs over and over for 5 years. Don't underestimate the neckbeardness of the players on this server.

Another reason I find the outrage over PoK books to be silly. There were a lot of times that porting was still way faster to get to certain places. Karanas? You're running from Qeynos if u take the book. Velious is another example GD is the only spot. Trying to get to ToV? Enjoy your 40 minute run.
teleport spells are part of why people make druids and wizards
  1. strong utility spells like ports makes the player feel needed and wanted
  2. poor players use it to make money
  3. as an old player, you may have already traveled the world, but newer players havent. Instant and free pok books takes away all traveling and everything that comes with it (exploring an unkown zone, coming across a rare mob, running into a sand giant etc)

How would you like it if the game took a major part of your class design and just gave it to everyone for free? Maybe we should have slow wands on a vendor in every city, because getting a shaman to do it for me is too much of a hassle.

PoK made the game feel cheaper and began the long and shit-strewn walk down the path of making the game easier. Fuck PoK. Fuck Luclin.

As the game grew, there was a decision at SOE to focus on endgame, rather than pre 40's content. This made all the stuff you love, that most of us love, like hailing NPC's in the karanas and chasing Bark Shield drops, traveling through east krana just to get to high hold, all of that became less of the focus for the expanded content.

So yea all the stuff added in luclin and on, specifically was designed to reduce the pre 40's game play and focus on end game raiding, something SOE decided its playerbase was focused on anyway.

So for us old timers that love vanilla, it means we like kunark a little (cus it was an across the board expansion, low and high level quest & content). Velious, was the first to focus more on the high level content, however it did still have that "Brad" required pre 40's content as well.. You'll notice it rapidly dropped off after luclin and the focus is put on end game content.

Say what you will about what is 'right' for eq.. classic is when every zone mattered, not just 1/8th of them [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
