I actually feel like AA's ruined the game for me (despite the fact that I miss many of the AA abilities I had).

My reasoning:

I quite enjoy leveling up all sorts of different characters. Once AA's were introduced, (especially after POP AA's) every time I decided to play an alt instead of my main I was essentially letting my main character fall behind the curve and it felt like shit.

The thought of essentially leveling up forever makes me sick. When I hear about people playing today with 5000+ AA's I literally want to barf and am so glad I quit the game when I did.

I enjoy having a high cap on things.
I like being able to semi-retire a character.
Save it for raids, helping out guildies, exploring new quests or whatever.
I enjoy having the time to play a different character and not feel like I'm gimping my main by doing so.

Luckily a couple years ago SOE realized what this curve was like so now it is much easier to get AA.

Your first 750aa now are on a curve where you get them extremely fast, after that it levels out to normal speed.

However, with how much XP you gain per kill at max level now, you can easily gain 8-16aa an hour with a good group, and this was 1.5years ago when I quit. Or maybe that was even in a 1/2 hour...hard to remember exactly.

Luclin - AAs -- I love them. I love focusing on one character and it was a way to advance your character and not level ahead of friends too.

also....KEI!

I love the beastlord class as well

I quit EQ late Luclin, but did get to see my brother do quite a few PoP encounters; I liked some things, but was very against other things (below). Beyond PoP, every single piece of new info I get about live EQ makes me throw up in my mouth a little.

Luclin Pros:
The zones! So much fun!
The items & spells - new stuff to play with and think about, not REALLY gamebreaking.
The concept of EQ on the moon.
The concept of a bazaar.
The concept of an AA system.
The concept of mounts.
The concept of mooninites as a playable race.

PoP Pros:
All I really got to see was a couple raids, which looked like a lot of fun and half made me want to play again, until I remembered:

Luclin Cons (manifold and wondrous):
The implementation of every single new non-gear/spell mechanic bit ass, whether it had a good concept or not.
The Nexxus was dogshit. Easily in the top 3 reasons I quit.
The bazaar should have been in the EC tunnel and SOE is fucktarded.
The AA system was idiotic, and starting from scratch, I bet Goobles and Mythoxxus could collaboratively come up with a better system.
New model females made me want to be gay until I saw new model males. What fucking idiot was in charge? What fucking idiot approved that guy? This is one of the main reasons I quit.
What "Short & Yellow" busser gave the go ahead on those horses? Seriously, those were like the worst models I've ever seen.
FURRIES. Need I say more? #1 reason I quit.
Lol if you quit because of Vah Shir, I got news for you...
