I think the time has come for Shadows of Lucin

Honestly love all of the QoL and don't mind soloing. So I'll probably focus there until Tormax for an alt. Then alternate between the two.

Quarm is great. Amazing community. Don't have the time to grind skills and find groups anyway. I play for nostalgia. And one day I want to do some expansions past GoD.

I started playing this game late and was caught between the latest months of Velious before Luclin, so things went from bad to very easy in some ways, because I could evolve my character faster, even without gear, through AAs.

I didn't hate Luclin too much, because it opened up a lot of opportunities, but it also had some real issues for me, such as:

1) New player models looked so terrible, I considered quitting until I found out you could toggle them off.

2) The theme jumping into a blend of sci-fi and fantasy was not ideal. There was more lore to be explored in Norrath. There was no need to move to the moon yet. The themes didn't transition well because of that.

3) New class, new race and so on, while most classes needed to be tweaked before introducing the spaghetti linguini that was beastlord.

Why have a cat brace btw? Was it not enough to have lizards? I guess they went from exotic pet to a normal pet theme here. Not a playable race still.

4) The Bazaar and Spires were good QOL tools. It could be implemented in the existing world just by waving some technicalities and introducing some more evolved humans who can teleport and buy/sell fast through a network.

In the end, Luclin tried to introduce some much needed things, such as AAs, Bazaar and Spires, but made everyone look ugly and created a new race that was not needed, while also introducing a new class when there were many classes that needed to be fixed.

It was a way to keep people subbed, but hell, not the best way to do it.

I feel like people didn't really digest content that fast. I remember questioning why I even bought Velious because for the first year or so it was out, I never even went there [You must be logged in to view images.

Also a developer said in an interview that the reason they made Luclin a space expansion is because SOE was also developing Star Wars Galaxies at the time and was inspired by that, but also because the same devs were working on SWG, Luclin ended up being a more low quality expansion in terms of actual content.

I remember when the new models came out, I actually had to upgrade my graphics card. I think I got a Geforce 2 but it's kind of hazy now.

[Trexller]

Yeah lists were long, but not long enough for ppl like castle2.0 to get a dozen of them

Everyone should not have equal access to everything anytime anywhere, unless it's a for-profit model
