Luclin Models Blocked

[wormed]

As I've said before, if you actually prefer Luclin models, you need to get your eyes checked, head examined, or both. They're eye cancer inducing disgusting models that look like they were designed by my 1 year old nephew. They've got worse animations than the original models, which is already laughable, and they made everyone look like garbage.

Now, for the people who want them, I really don't care, but know that I look down on you. And I'm pretty awesome, so that's very insulting.

EDIT:

LOOK HOW AWESOME THESE HELMS ARE. FU Luclin models.

Just code it so that if you have luclin models on, you also get a sparkly tail of rainbow particle effects and a unicorn's horn, and your surname gets changed to "Mylittlepony"

Everybody wins.

What's so bad about liking better looking avatars?

You really think that avatars that look like they were built with legos are better looking than the Luclin models? I will agree, the Luclin combat animations lack any wow factor, but the over all appearance of the Luclin model is far superior to the older models.

'Better Looking' is a matter of opinion. Luclin models look retarded. Yes classic models are older but that doesnt make them not as good.

Yes, it is an opinion. Look the word up.

The new models also move retarded. Classic eq models may be old but they are great for what they are. They did great with what they had. The new models...not so much. For being new they sure screwed them up. They could have been awesome.

Something else i wasnt crazy about with the new graphics was how every breastplate had etching all over it. What happened to regular Plate mail?

My issue with Luclin models was mainly to do with consistency; back in the Luclin days especially, you'd have to pick just a few races to 'upgrade' and they would look wrong surrounded by the pre-Luclin races and the fixed-model NPCs.

On the other hand, I don't much care what models other people have. Knowing that there are some model-related exploits makes me a little less apathetic, but I still can't say I am that upset...

* Trolls & Ogres lost all of the interesting character to them. Original models were fun & the ass-scratching idle animation was a great feature. Luclin models look like retarded football players who're gonna die slowly and painfully from some horrible steroid-induced malady.
* Iksars went from cool looking lizardman warriors to really stupid-looking juiced bodybuilders with spray-on scales & rubber masks & tails.
* Gnomes... wtf? seriously?? put down the mirror and the coke and back away slowly from the mouse and keyboard, don't come back
* Dwarves went from ugly with character to just ugly
* Halflings... never cared enough to notice how they were changed
* Erudites... lost their unique character, much prefer the original big dome dudes & the most graceful female outline in the game
* Animations so so so bad on the new models
* Half-elf plate helm graphic on the new model is so incredibly horrible that my paladin refused to get a mount specifically to avoid having to look like that on my screen

I could've gotten past most of that, human and elf models in general do look better and I play mostly human & elf chars, but those funky animations and the ultimate horror of the half-elf plate helm were fatal flaws that cannot ever be forgiven.

I know you're technically on my side when it comes to Luclin models but... yo bro, Dwarf model is awesome as fuck!!!!
