Played on it for about 15 minutes. It's hilarious how an emulated version of the 12 year old Everquest is such a superior gameplay experience.
The modern client runs like complete shit with wild frame rate drops in newbie zones without much on screen. It is ridiculously obnoxious just to turn your camera around because it will slow down so much when looking at distant terrain and then speed way up when looking at the ground/walls. The revamped zones all look like bad Luclin zones too.
Then I attack level one mobs. Trivial kills, of course -- until I pull this level one mob which for some reason has something like two or three times the hitpoints and hit way harder, and promptly die to the not-killable-at-level-one white con mob. Nice tuning there.
Respawn with items on death. Start with mediate. Start with maxed sense heading. Start with all your skills capped for your first level. Start with a backpack. A server with even more powerful pets, retarded monk damage, retarded HT damage, more powerful jewelry, marketplace bought +exp potions, and god knows what else. No thanks.
Thank you Project 1999 devs for making the best MMORPG currently online.
