Please let us return to that. It was a foundation for what great MMOs should have become. Ones that satisfy the niche of players who appreciate a real online interactive world where players have reputations and actions have consequences (social ones too).

Nostalgia level off the charts for old UI / night time if it came tomorrow.

That is a big part of the reason that I occasionally log into EQMac, because I can play with the old UI. Brings back so many good memories of just how awesome MMOs can be. Although that UI forces you to have such a small screen it is how the game was played in 1999 so I'm all for that implementation if it is possible.

I think this should definitely be a part of the much-rumored "timeline server", or maybe a future iteration thereof... make you have to really want that pre-nerf guise just a lil bit more than the next nerdy d-bag.

I started playing right after Kunark came out and don't remember being forced to use that UI. This is what I remember:

When did the ability to go fullscreen like this happen?

^ barb has velious armor graphic above, so, after Velious

That persona icon screams class identity. RIP class identity in MMOs.

Wow, I guess my memory pre-Velious is incredibly fuzzy.

Even in the Pre-Velious UI, you could always press F10 to toggle between (1) Opaque Mode (2) Transparent Mode and (3) No UI.

Opaque Mode:

AHHH!

That's it, then. I played in transparent mode in the old UI.

The opaque/transparent toggle did ship with the game. But the notable differences should be listed here in another thread.
