Anything that does away with real human interaction such as EC Tunnel or makes the game inherently easier such as PC RUINS the game.

EC Tunnel is not real human interaction. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It baffles me there are people who prefer the EC Tunnel over the Bazaar, other for the sake of keeping the server "classic". [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I like the classic feel of EC, but one thing I definitely miss is playing in the arena in the Bazaar. Some of the most fun I ever had playing EQ was impromptu "king of the hill" style PvP fights while browsing items in the Bazaar. It seemed like no matter what time of day it was I could roll into the Bazaar and kill some time both buying/selling and messing around with whatever people were hanging out by the arena.

The buying mechanic in Bazaar I can take of leave. It definitely reduced the interaction between players buying and selling, but since I really don't play the commerce game it isn't something that ever really bothered me.

I just want a commerce zone that has an arena!

I personally liked Luclin but that's because I actually quit just before Velious came out and came back just before PoP.

If there ever was progression beyond Velious it would be neat to see:
- Nexus nerfed with only access to Luclin areas to keep druids and wizards in business.
- Bazaar eliminated.
- PC brought into real world ZEM territories.

Pretty sure those things and cats on the moon were the only things that really killed immersion. Wouldn't mind seeing zones like UP and Scarlet Desert again.

I actually made tons of money porting on live hanging out in the Nexus and Bazaar. They provided a hub for people, many of which who wanted speedier transit or locations different than what the Nexus ports provided.

I also never felt like traders stopped people from auctioning or haggling.

Seriously. Nexus added boats to and from NK, Tox, G Fay, GD and DL (15 minute interval ports). Yes, it made travel slightly easier, but it in no way made druid/wiz porting obsolete. That was PoK.

The best was when you got to the spires, sat down for your port. Oh cool its energizing, wait, why didn't I zone??


FUCK I FORGOT TO ASK FOR THE FUCKING GEM.

Luclin, fuck yeah.

I'm with you, the problems with Luclin weren't humongous. Some reasonable adjustments could make it what it needs to be to be the continuation of the P99 server. IMO on the day you release whatever-the-new-stuff-is post-Velious, start a fresh P99 blue server and have it run the full course classic the whole way, when it's done merge it onto the server with new content...

But some people are just gonna hate.

If they ever did custom content this would be awesome!
