They're taking this whole "classic EQ experience" way too far, I agree with the other posters about how the old interface is crappy, I mean seriously...would you want to play this game with a 300x300 res view if you had an alternative like say....P99?

Well, to be fair. EQC was a huge success.

It brought a TON of people to EMU, and eventually... to Project 1999.

So don't cast stones too quickly. Keep in mind their project was a huge success....

just ummm... not for EQC.. /shrug.

Columbus was looking for a new trade route by sea to India. You could say he failed miserably in that particular objective. But he did somehow end up on American and get credit for discovering an entire continent that everyone but Eurasia had been visiting for centuries.. So there's that. Wow tangent.

You know Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains and imprisoned right?

At least in bumping this people have the incentive to tag the hell out of it now with the usual [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

We still need someone to tag it with a "young .... <something"

This actually looks like it has a ton of the elements I've been wanting in my ideal MMO over the last several years. But even if they pulled off everything that they want to per the FAQ and stuff... I still don't think I could play it.

"So, like, casters have never gotten to be excited about loot, in like, MMOs before. SO WE GOT RID OF SPELLCASTING AND MADE EVEN MORE PHAT LEWTZ TO GET!!!!!!"

WTF? Why not just make the entire system of spellcasting BETTER instead of making it into wannabe materia or something?

Of all my complaints with MMOs that have ever existed, including EQ, I get the most pissy when I think about how SPELLCASTERS are more excited about finding a new belt than getting a new spell.

Really wish an MMO would come out that does justice to the whole idea of magic users.

They tried making new spells loot and it caused a riot.

Which is a stupid argument, but it won out.

if you'll notice there's a link on that site to some autism awareness bullshit, which makes sense since everyone on that site is likely falls somewhere between aspergers and full blown autism.
