Stagnant. What's the server population hitting at peak?

Stagnant apparently.

Wrong answer.

Live Everquest is on expansion #20 or something like that. The numbers get bigger. You get more things to click. In-game life gets a little easier in some ways and harder in others. Certain classes get relatively stronger while others get relatively weaker.

In the end you're just taking a percentage bar from 100% to 0% ad nauseum, navigating the world and bullshitting with other humans. Kunark is a pretty cool expansion.

Damnit I think I just convinced myself to start the one class I've never played: a druid. Worthless scum. Port me.

the only people that seem to want to wait are the people that just found the server.

I'm currently one of those people! But if Velious came out tomorrow, I would be f'ing stoked.

Even people that just started should want Velious if they ever want to see Kunark content.

And I wouldn't worry about stagnation after Velious. The devs aren't just going to let a project they invested so much time into die off slowly. There will be years to think of a creative solution to keep people around.

If they don't shut it down on the eve of Luclin release it'll be deemed "not classic" and self destruct.

Plus server maintenance times (often 9 hours or more) should be mirrored if an "exact timeline" is what people are craving. To do otherwise would offend those bent on keeping to that timeline.

I wouldn't rule out non classic, post Velious content in some form when the time comes. Or custom content. They aren't just going to let stuff die. It may be 3-4 years from now but they'll think of something (with community input I'm sure).

Putting in PoP without the hub...basically make the planes a zone in from the existing classic world or as a wizard port (like existing planes are) with custom tuned mobs/bosses/loot or something. Just thinking out loud on that one but I could see something like that happening.
