Why do people seem to hate luclin so much?

[Jimjam]

I don't know, he talks about auction houses and then plat sinks....

I'm guessing he wants a % based tax implemented to the bazaar to nom nom spare p p!!

<IRS> should be a new guild patrolling tunnel ensuring a duty is paid on every purchase.

I'm saying there aren't enough ways that EQ removes currency for an auction house to work without it causing super inflation. Right now we see people barter, and it's this bartering that keeps items relatively in check.

We saw super inflation in EQ very fast after Luclin came out. I don't recall there being any great money sinks in Luclin either. Since I quit during Luclin I don't know what Sony did to fix this.

Cats on the moon did not sit well with some from what I have read here.

I always wonder if they'd have been okay with Cats from inside the earth. Or Cats from Kerra Isle.

Just seems like a dumb beef over some of the genuine problems already covered ad nauseum here.

I think vendor bought potions could be tweaked to be a more appealing cash sink, but not on this server. That's not classic!

If you don't mind the rats getting fatter then sure do a quick in and out.

Adding beast lords in without other class spells that came out in luclin would make for some balance problems. A full complement of BL spells would arguably make them very overpowered without others getting their spells as well.

When has classic EQ ever been about balance?

Warping to a plane where a certain god or demi-god rules is aligned with classic EverQuest lore. Warping to outer space like we're on a NASA mission is quite the stretch for a D&D type MMO.

Do you aware that DnD has other dimensions/realities, travel to moons, planets, stars, spaceships and lasers?

Lets take Illithids - one of the most coveted npc races of DND:

The 3.5 Edition D&D supplement Lords of Madness provides that the Illithid were a star-faring people who existed at the end of time. Facing annihilation, the Illithid traveled to the past, arriving roughly 2000 years before the present in any given D&D campaign.

Hows that for classical DnD fantasy? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
