I'm good with going with Torven's data over the conjecture. It's the most supported hypothesis that I have seen, as the those eqmac logs are the closest data to this era available. Taking that as a bedrock, it isn't a stretch to side with all the other anecdotal data.
You have to admit that your own personal experience is on the same level of all that conjecture. Memories are quite hyperbolic, especially 20 years out [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Short of trilogy, or earlier, source code coming out to play I don't see this being able to be proved to the same degree as the current implementation. It would take a monumental mother lode find at this point I think.
i too am very qq about tick/sneak pulling. however that is a case of something being too imbalanced and taken out, even though the devs know that it was a thing in-era. |
Nothing in those screen shots is conjecture. Most of that thread you posted however was. I don't know who Torven is or where he got his data from or what his bias is so he's no golden idol to me. The fact that it was taken as fact and implemented that casting could no longer be interrupted with push, even though that is clearly a classic mechanic, is enough of a reason for me to completely discount Torven and not trust his "data".
The change that was made to push was neither classic nor did it give p99 a more classic "feel". It failed on both fronts.
