Separate server? Great. But don't poison the purity of Classic-Velious.

After reading comments in another thread about the spirit of EQ never being able to be replicated because everyone already knows everything and what they need to do, it came to me that the only way to keep the spirit of EQ going is actually to create brand new content with a classic feel that players on P99 could relate to and enjoy.

So, how do you do it? With a brand new continent in the current server, but, get this, with no travelling connection with the current geography of Norrath (not initially, at least), and the only way to play in this new continent would be to create a new character there.

It would have brand new content with the same classic feel and the same harsh game play.

There we could again have people going about completely lost, not knowing basic things, not knowing where the bank is, where to buy food, not knowing the terrain, not knowing the geography of it all, not knowing what the enemies do, not knowing how to finish quests because there is no recipe to follow in the internet, not knowing what it’s worth doing and what's not, not knowing what it’s valuable and what's not, not knowing anything about the new continent.

All new, with that good old feel. ;)

Custom server, made from scratch with original EQ spirit, + better thought out itemization, intelligent quests, and fix of obvious exploits (no MQ, no batwing/fangs XP quests, req level for uber items etc).
