QoL improvements are the slippery slope into the current mmorpg failstate, listening to what players want was a disaster, it's like that Steve Jobs quote about customers not knowing what they want.

this place is a nostalgia simulator for a terribly designed video game in hindsight and if you don't actually have nostalgia for things you didn't get to experience of course things like Quarm and Everquest live for that matter will be enjoyable to you.

It's not even about custom features; they could simply fix the silly change that broke Damage Over Time. It used to work as intended, and now you can't even see the damage in the window, and the damage is also broken and i bet a lot of people to the date doesn't even know that as of today.

They could also make the camera much smoother than it currently is; this was one of the common complaints in Quarm, and now Quarm's camera is significantly better than P1999's. These adjustments aren't game-breaking nor are they custom features; they are just elements that used to exist and weren't broken.

For instance, being able to use the sit/stand button to interrupt your spellcasting instead of having to crouch, or standing up while sitting without needing to press the sit button. These features didn't break the game and were part of the experience here.
