I hate so much having to manually move around soulbound keys each and every death. And keeping track of who is in a guild is next to impossible, if not indeed impossible. People stealth quit all the time. Or are they on vacation? Or is their IP down? What about their alts? Who the hell are their alts?? Is this going to upset the game to have a tool that tracks this all? I think not.......

Then get rid of item linking. Everyone types it all out manually....Bring back corpse looting when you drag someone. Let people drop cash on the ground......
The list goes on. Did it ever occur to you QoL features could draw more people in? This server could so easily turn into Red, with about 35 people all saying, "Yah!! No QoL stuff! We win!!".......And guilds consist of 7 people and the remaining population can't even raid HoT. Certain QoL features don't affect gameplay. But to intentionally make anything harder then it needs to be simply serves no purpose.

The people behind this server do not care about drawing more people in. And they've flat out said as much: Nilbog has a quote to the effect that he plans to make this place classic even if that means driving every last player off.

The real question becomes, since they already deviated from classic, where and how is the line drawn? NO ONe can dispute the fact item linking is NOT classic by any stretch of the imagination. Take that away, and watch the riots start.

P99 has never "abandoned" classic-ness . When the wiki works, you can find an entire page of unclassic stuff (the "Non-Classic Compendium") ... but along with that list, you'll also find an explanation for why each thing is. There are literally just two things that are pure developer fiat: the direction of the boats in OOT (the original directions made no sense, world-wise), and the Siren's Grotto camp/glitch bug (it was used far more on live than recharging ever was, but the devs unclassically "fix" it here). For those two things, you can rail as much as you want against for R&N for being hypocrites. For everything else though ... if it's unclassic, it's unclassic because it has to be. Either it's impossible to recreate classic because no one knows for sure what some aspect of classic was like, so the staff do their best (eg. drop rates of stuff, exactly where every mob spawns and how many per zone, etc.) ... or it's impossible because of a technical limitation like the Titanium client. But again, except for boats and Siren's Grotto, nothing here is done unclassically by choice.

I often wish there was more of a financial incentive for the P99 devs to be more concerned about population. We would get some QoL changes, we would get Luclin eventually, and Veksar, and the Cazic Thule revamp, and blue could be more than just a retread of classic EQ, it could be the best EQ ever could have been. The truth though is that fewer players would make their lives easier, and P99 is more a labor of love, an homage, a work of art intended to recreate a time and a place faithfully, regardless of how appealing it is to people than it is an attempt at making a popular EMU server. | |||
