Don't get me wrong, the game isnt what it used to be but there are some changes I like. I don't think no more corpse runs is that bad, most of you probably have some good memories of retrieving your corpse out of a hard dungeon but corpse runs weren't fun and didn't make the game more challenging, its just a time sink. Mercs are needed for the game sadly, there isn't a big enough population to always find pick up groups(i never had that problem though). They won't replace a group and you definitely wont replace a human healer/tank with one since they are extremely stupid. I do hate that they took out most traveling, but again its just a time sink anyways and doesn't add a challenge to the game. I hate station cash and refuse to support it(haven't even spent the free points that they gave everyone yet). They MOSTLY sell stuff that doesn't affect gameplay, but it is one of the worst things that happened to eq. btw I think they gave everyone 3 free days to play for their 11th anniversary today.
I absolutely agree with you in the fact that so much of the game is time sink related as opposed to adding a challenge. And let's face it, when the max level is 85 and there are others running around with 4k AA's, you don't really need any other time sink.
