Pass, then you end up with shitfiestas like WoW Season of Discovery. That said, I wouldn't mind tweaks to non-classic systems like /list.

Wasn't SoD a success that was generally received pretty well by the classic WoW community, though? I played it myself for a couple of months and had fun, even if some aspects of it were sort of disappointing (namely Battle for Ashenvale). Not that Project 1999 should go that route and start adding things that fundamentally change class roles...

Anyway. I really don't think that giving rogues an aggro dump before the Paineel era, or giving shield bash stun an aggro component so that warriors can function / hold aggro the way they were originally intended to, is going to break the game.

SoD was initially popular because the WoW community is in total denial and just wanted something, anything, fresh. Added on top of the classic players were an influx of retail players no doubt.

After that there's been a 70% dropoff of players (https://www.mmojugg.com/news/wow-sod...xceeds-70.html) and perhaps that's in part to be expected, however, that's not the point. The point is that SoD sucks and that adding new abilities and tweaking old easily results in a shit experience.

The classic community got it right the first time, "no changes". There's a value in playing the game as it were and it gives the game a legitimacy that you otherwise lose. Not all too dissimilar to house-rules in other games. Before long also devs would have to defend not changing virtually everything. Given what we've seen from the p99-devs I doubt the interest is there and it may very well be why we haven't seen a fresh server now.

total noob question, but what does reset mean?

It will eventually merge into Blue. It doesn't "reset" in the sense that you lose your characters. People should stop using that word.

It's a merge into blue, everything will still exist. And then a server starting from the beginning of the classic timeline will be started again.

After years of radio silence, I'm starting to doubt that lol

P99 team has done a great job restoring the original EQ.
They have done a piss poor job maintaining the servers and the community.
It is the biggest reason for population decline.
Basically they built this great thing and then left it to rot.

They keep believing, much like Christians still waiting 2000 years later.
Far to many take what was said as gospel.

Either someone has lost all desire or time to deal with a reset.
Or will pop it out without warning, so all the neckbeards wont able to put in vacation time before it happens.
