AtlasMinor. Thanks for your input.

I have now read the faq and according to that the years 1999-2001 are considered classic on this server.

"Shadows of Luclin was released in December 4th 2001, so almost everything from 1999 through 2001 is considered classic"

Now there is the word almost thrown in there, so im not sure what parts might not be considered classic, regarding UI and game-play and so on, but its nice to have a reference because classic seems to differ from person to person.

NP, glad to help .

Iv'e been one person lucky enough to see EQ live for almost all its years, different subs for different SOE games, but it was always a All-Access Pass back before it it is now, now All-Access pretty much allows every game not just the games owned, anyways.

If i wasn't on EQ is was on EQ2, if not EQ2 it SWG till closing/re-opening of SWGEmu [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] but always keeping up with all 3.

Tattered Notebook is hard to find, any original content from the past would be nice they have achieved / deleted most of the past Kind of like EQ forums now, not even a Class discussions thread.


NOTE Classic UI was still the Verent UI even during Velious, SOE broke it apart right before Luclin or a little sooner but it was that or there was a none-released patch with optional website download at first, SOE wasn't sure something like that but i definitely remember using the Old Solid Verent Design until Luclin. I always thought of Luclin the clear type UI, because it makes you feel like your in space, Just look at the Spell book, its defiantly Sci-Fi Kitty stuff. Clear UIl like staring out of a Astronaut helmet. I picture putting in a respirator when i use those type of UI's and when i look at the retail box i say to myself "Look at them moon boots"! Thats Luclin.

Only thing i liked about Luclin was introduction to bazaar and those Hoppy hopping little mushrooms that always trained the front door to the actual planet, and the funny noises they made when players smacked them, Ha.
