"Classic" feeling shifting?

They've basically answered this question, if you go back and look at their posts. The gist of it is:

1. They'll implement all of the patches up to (but not including) Luclin
2. After that's done (2020? 2025?) they will release a true progression server, ie. a server that starts out in an "EQ with no patches whatsoever" state, and then applies patches and expansions at exactly the same (relative) time as they were applied on live. In fact, if I understand correctly the point of P99 wasn't even to make Blue/Red; in some sense both servers are just test beds for making the progression server.
3. They will implement their own custom content on Blue (and I guess Red too?). The custom content will NOT be just "Luclin zones re-purposed and attached to the old world." Instead, they will be completely new/custom zones, because apparently it's easier for the devs to make new content than it is to re-implement existing content.

Of course none of that is a guarantee or promise to the community, it's just (my interpretation of) their stated ambitions. They could decide not to do any of it ... but I for one certainly hope to someday see both the progression server and the custom content. I'm sure both will be amazing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'd love to see what the devs can come up with in terms of custom zones in the spirit of trilogy. Or even a stand-alone game for that matter.
