zone and general art style bad, new models were really bad, a lot of VT was phoned-in (20 of the top raid bosses in Luclin are recolored/sized-up blobs from Kunark with 1 basic aoe spell and too much HP).
overall a fantastic expansion though -- ranger becomes a playable class, raid scene is more fun than Velious even with VT. Emp is probably the best encounter in all of EQ.
people like to hate on it because it's the "beginning of the end", but as you can see from P99, parking an EQ server at Velious breaks the game. I have a lot more sympathy for the design decisions made in Luclin/PoP that I used to agree were shit after experiencing long term Velious.
