yeah, first char i ever made in 99' was a ranger and i couldn't see shit in the tunnel so i'd end up zoning out and re-zoning into surefall and it would take like 5 minutes each load so i deleted him and made a wood elf next and promptly fell out a tree.

true story.
I made a de necro and could not get out of neriak. So I rolled a human warrior for some reason. Ended up with a wood elf Druid and never looked back

Even with the fantastically detailed maps in the manual I had the same experience with a dark elf. I think there may have been a labelling issue in the maps that caused a confusion - maybe the zone names in game not quite aligning with how they were portrayed in game? Idk.

Either way, I phoned a more experienced friend to ask how to get out of neriak quickly. He told me to target a guard and press ‘a’…

Well it worked… on live did you respawn with a new dagger* if you died on a necro before level 4?

I literally knew nothing about the game. I remember reading pc magazine and learning about the classes. Sucks because if I was a de necro I would have steamrolled late content with the fs dagger bug. Druid was fun and I was able to do lots of content but not to the ability of the old school necro.

Not fully knowing the stat meta for each class was fun too. I had points in Charisma on my warrior because it seemed like being able to buy and sell for better prices would be important.

Unless you rolled a human warrior like me lol. Thankfully I only got him to 25 before I rolled a druid

I distinctly remember mino axes being all the rage during super early vanilla. They are such trash lol. Not even magic.

Also, I bought a crafted bracer for 60 dollars on ebay, using money I made from selling my ultima online account, also on ebay. Before ebay banned those kinds of auctions it was like a money launderer's dream
