Would PoP be considered classic if it was released before Luclin?

[Mahande]

The thing that killed the community aspect of the game was boxing, not POK. POK was just a nice tool for getting around fast without relying on a druid or wizard, you still needed to group with people and interact with them to kill things and gain xp. With the introduction of boxing (Started in Velious btw), EQ started down a slippery slope of becoming a solo game, even at the high end of raiding. If this server were to add luclin under the current IP stipulations, the only thing that would significantly change is that adding the Bazaar would make EC a thing of the past and lets face it, none of us would miss it. Nowhere can you fill your ignore list full of undercutting asshats faster than in EC. I for one welcome it.

Oh and btw, Luclin was complete already when Sony bought EQ at the very least in scope and design, the coding just needed to be finished. The only thing Sony added were the Luclin models for the toons which we all hated.
