Talking about classic things, why can't we cast on boat? The distracted thing was added after kunark for sure, unsure when through, and obviously you gets interupt when the boat moves, but when the boat is at stand still, or instant clicks or song should be useable... Used to play ae songs with my bard on vallon zek...

Thanks, Rogean. This seems like a very reasonable decision.
Recreating a classic feel and experience 20 years after classic actually ended isn't trivial. We all want to go back 20 years, to our childhood (well, at least those who are 30 y/o or older I suppose), but you can't, whatever you do. So it will always be an imperfect experience - you simply don't enter the same river twice. Things like 3rd person view, target cycle hotkey, pet window, fast zoning, stable servers, good knowledge of the game aren't classic, but they help having a server with a lot of population. Nothing is sadder than an EQEmu server with no pop. There's no doubt that there will always be people advocating a return of even more drastic, classic features to P99, such as the stone UI, removal of target cycling, enforcement of full-screen, removal of camera chase view, lock to 5 FPS at 800x600, etc etc. But these die-hard classic advocates, all put together, respectfully, represent a tiny, tiny portion of the total user base, probably not even 1 percent. Most of us just want to have a chill casual experience recalling the good old days back in 2000 when we could simply play EQ all day without worrying about tomorrow, when life seemed infinite. Big props to all the team for allowing us to do just that, for free (!), for the last 10 years. | ||

> Pet bars return with caveat
Awesome, that works. Cheers for the compromise! Understandable that there's a line between classic and "modern classic" - makes decisions tough, sometimes.

I know that disparity in functionality is classic, but, like, why? Was this a design choice? Was there some compromise in integrating the hot button window? Were the abilities window meant to be as limited as the hotbar buttons, but as an oversight were left to be clickable much more of the time or vice versa? Such are the mysteries of Everquest. | |||
