I didn't like the concept of the expansion at all. Cats on the moon, little ugly ass aliens everywhere, and the interaction needed to play the game (travel/buy/sell) was diminished slightly. I can't remember when the "luclin" ui was introduced but that also upset me at the time.
I think the large, fantasy themed zones of classic EverQuest were lost and done away with during Luclin. The world started to get less connected as the content left norrath. Velious/Kunark were connected via boats in actual ocean zones whereas to access PoP/Luclin there was just sort of one "hub" zone you magically transported to in order to access the rest of the expansion. I didn't really like that aspect of the expansion as it was a disconnect for me. The single biggest problem though is that I can't recall there being a single dragon in the entire expansion. Just cats, snakes, and aliens. Really unfortunate.
I enjoyed AA's a lot and think that character development beyond reaching max level was a great call.
