What I’m describing is not overcomplicated. These are normal concerns in software engineering.

If you’re having trouble understanding the importance of a reasonably normal SDLC, you should not be making estimates.
Except you not creating a server code from scratch - you making MINOR DB level alterations. The server isn't going to crash if you set a mod to a "leash" - a code which was created and tested years ago. The only unknown here is how it will affect raiding and how players will deal with it. And the only way to test those is to release to public and observe the result, because P99 doesn't have 2,000 men internal testig team.

The people who invented the first space ships were brilliant. That doesn't mean anybody should actually want to use them 200 years later. Ideas are limited by means of execution. Everquest has amazing ideas that need to be completely reworked in their execution, in order for classic Everquest as it was envisioned to actually exist and continue to be relevant as things have evolved.
