Luclin

[mwatt]

I have to agree with many that said PoP was the real beginning of the end. I personally think that the customer base was bifurcated into those that could spend hours and hours raiding and keying and those that could not. Yes this exists in Kunark but the gear disparity is not that bad. Granted, some VP gear is pretty damn good but it is only the elite that get that not a significant percentage of the majority, so the bifurcation has less impact. With increased gear disparity it requires double content in every release - this is one of the unrecognized downfalls to the SOE approach back then.

I also agree with those who say that "Cats on the Moon" suck. I always thought so, I am not just parroting Nilbog's stance like some others. It was disrespectful to the genre to do this.

Finally I will also agree with some that I could probably stand Luclin here, because there is more good than bad. AAs are great. Some of the Luclin zones are great. Level 65 is great (that IS Luclin is it not?). Perhaps if we had a Luclin with no cats and no bazaar, that might fly. I would vote for making the models optional.
