I remember when line of sight for spells didn't exist. Casters could hide behind a wall and nuke the shit out of people. I also remember when stamina would actually drain when constantly fighting, and you would need to ask your group to "zing" you. Now invigor is like a worthless spell here. Also enchanters used to be able to cast illusion spells on group members, it wasn't just self only. Grouping with enchanters was always fun, not just for the mana regen & CC!

I remember when we only had 6 hotkey slots on the original UI, and all you mofos are spoiled with 10+. We also didn't have pet windows... so some of those SIX hotkey slots would be pet commands! Times were tough, but we didn't know any different. And no mouse scroll - only way to actually see your character was adjusting camera angles with like F9 or whatever.

No percentages for exp bar, total mana WASN'T listed! Looking at your inventory took up your entire view port. You had to open your spellbook to meditate. If you wanted to sell something, you had to type it out and type out the stats. Shit bros, you don't know how good you got it!

most of this were things we dealt with on green/teal (aside from the scroll wheel camera), the 10 slot hotbar got added around velious i think? along with custom ui's.
And spellbook meditate was a thing for a long while, eventually not needing it level 35+, and then not needing it at all.
