Which TWO post Velious expansions would you most like to see added to p99 and why?

[myriverse]

I think the low population might be the most objective argument against further expansions.

Luclin and PoP if they removed PoK, Nexus, Bazaar, Vah Shir, and aliens.

[kagrobb]

They can add aa's without adding Luclin. PoP via the hole or kedge or posky or the fire wall in fear or maybe inny found a way to pop or the Eurds found a way to POK ... There are so many ways to add pop and aa without adding Luclin.

However in hindsight after playing EQ live for years and years the gates of discord was where it really started to jump the shark. Mudflation took an epic turn for the worse and even then GoD was still enjoyable with good content and good playability. The epic 2.0 quest line was done nicely as well. The biggest downside is that aa's were then becoming a large hurdle to get over for most newer players.

I felt that LOY and LDON had a couple things in each expansion that were vital, mounts illusion potions augments .... everything else was kinda fluff and timsink ... troll pirates sheesh.

SoL/PoP without all the stuff like nexus, bazaar and PoK books. For me GoD was the expansion that broke EQ for me..

Exactly this.

[Lagaidh]

GoD was the expansion where I finally said enough... my guild did have fun with Dragons of Norrath, but that was later. GoD and the relentless bullshit flagging... ugh.

Love that Klandicar raid.

PoK was incredible. It's the best mobilizing zone for any group or raid to go out and adventure. PoK books let you take the adventuring into your own hands.

Nexus is really such a non issue I find it hilarious people include it. You do realize that nexus only provides transport between 5 zones, on a 15min recharge, meaning your trips typically have 15 minute travel time for a North Karana to Greater Faydark port. Most P99 players would revolt if their porter took 15 minutes to port them between those locations.

Bazaar again incredible, sell while you sleep, pay and get what you want, never have to deal with low ballers, hagglers or resellers.

Vah Shir, yea they look dumb. Whatever.

What are the aliens but a different version of a goblin or a ghoul.

I don't understand the bazaar hate. Yes people sold while afk but I also remember tons of people treating the bazaar just like EC.

On my servers, that attitude didn't last long. Some hagglers held out a while, but it just became "the way" to afk sell.

I missed the one-on-one interaction of a trade.

Yes the one on one trading we have now is nice but I loved the fact that I could go to the bazaar search to see if anyone is selling the item I want. I have spent days on p99 trying to buy an item waiting around EC or trying to use the forums.

My favorite expansion and the peak of EQ felt like PoP to me. So much to do, so many items, so many raids, solo/group/money making/questing potential. Improvements to AA's and mudflation was still manageable.

SoL would be my next favorite. Yes, boohoo fast travel and the bazaar but they made the game more playable. No one that isn't a poopsocker likes sitting around in EC in the dead of night with 30 people online as people try to high ball things with low trade volume, my interactions have consisted of offering .85 - .90 of the list price and meeting someone at T1, no exceptions except staring at chat for 4 hours as nothing I need is listed in between bone chip and spiderling silk spam. The bazaar felt more like an actual market even if social interaction suffered. Fast travel was already trivialized with the existence of dial-a-port except for a few out of the way places in Kunark or Velious (which were still a PITA to run with PoK books). AA's were an amazing addition to the game.

What came next was unabashed garbage except Lost Dungeons which I enjoyed.
