So... How classic do you want it?

This is what it's going to look like for people running 1920x1080: https://i.imgur.com/WXj5uOf.png

Just pointing this out for people who are still saying a book on the screen is the end of the world. That's how it's going to look on Green.

Appreciate your hard work. Don't listen to the them, they are not EQ fans of what the project is trying to accomplish. You were originally on the right path.. until you took a arrow to the knee.

Going with the book/black screen blocking out view would of been better.

-Its a small price/handicap casters pay for their far superior early game capabilities.

-It gives a use to the sentinel spell and items that have that effect like Staff of the Observers.

-Also gives a small role to the non caster in the group to act as a "look out".

-Forces people to immerse a bit more into the world and listen to the environmental sounds of a mobs approaching footsteps, etc (which we remember doing back in 1999). Instead of blabbing non stop on teamspeak or blaring Icehouse.

This isn't what you originally posted. The original post showed no vision at all, like launch was. This isn't the same thing AT ALL... kinda like a bait and switch. That image is nothing compared to what we endured in early EQ. Most of us that actually did it hated it. That's why we reacted as we did.

And as far as I read, not one person suggested that it was the end of the world. Most people just complained that it would make the game no fun to not be able to see anything while meditating. But I gotta ask, why exaggerate and insult people for their opinions?

It's not as bad as you expected. Time to let it go. That's not a fight you want to pick.

No shit Sherlock, I literally JUST said that in the post you quoted.

But what I DON'T stand for, ever, is complete strangers telling me what to do, as if they are my master. You're not. Shove your superior attitude up yer azz.

Yeah, but he already posted saying that wasn't going to be forced on Green:

Then he should have put that in his OP, because expecting people to see that in 30 pages of responses is ridiculous.

I can only think of one reason to leave the OP like it is and not edit it: Trolling. He was trying to provoke a reaction, and got it. And a lot of people turned viscous on fellow EQ lovers who just have an opinion because they really don't like it.

Just look at the aftermath that could have been prevented if he edited his OP.

We're not going to be forcing the black screen on green, so everyone put down the pitchforks.

We will still be requiring the book and meditate button for < 35 though. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
