It is something p99 would have to start thinking about. Original + Kunark, even just there, there is underdeveloped content but all is well, the game still kicks ass, even with the zones that feel just like travel zones, no one ever in them.
But once you get to Velious, I do not see how the p99 community would not want to reach some consensus on these things. Starting with velious (some would even say, Kunark too) "classic" starts to become "and here is where SOE started dropping the ball."
Aside from some things that are borked from the get go here (no stamina regen and no weight penalty on weapons is a huge one imo -- bring it back), I can't think of much I would change about Kunark. The progression was still rock solid.
But starting with Velious, I think the entire concept of "let's just be classic" becomes something worth debating.
Just take the stamina example. If that mechanic was preserved through Kunark and Velious, it would of course not be "classic," but it might make a better game. As in: harder. Harder is good. Or at least, that's what she says.
