Question about server direction

Aa's and Instancing were both ripped out of the client though so don't ever expect to see them in a custom form.

Thats not accurate, they haven't changed the client... they could implement AAs and instanced content if the future expansions warranted them, it's still in the core eqemu code.

They are going to need to add AAs at some point. People need a reason to keep grinding. No AAs = no longevity.

Longevity? This server has already been around for many years and frankly, who cares about longevity? This server is free and exists for no reason other than for the love of the game that was.

It's players like you who have ruined your own games. You'll not ruin mine!

Devs has stated they have considered custom content, such as adding the PoP planes in places in the old world, could maybe have Ssra connect to Kunark and edit the lore slightly - could add in Veksar as a custom zone, etc.

veksar would be awesome, i would also enjoy a re-tuned loy

however both would change the dynamics of what the project is striving to be

3 years of kunark would like to have a word with you

I think the problem that SOE/Verant had was that hey kept pushing out sub-par content too quickly. I mean, Humans were supposed to have the EXP bonus, not halflings, stupid high numbers of broken quests and items, late implementation of things that they planned for in the beginning, etc. Kunark has been out here for 3 years and people still raid it and enjoy it. About the only thing AA grinds might do is decrease the speed of twink creation as more people keep playing on their mains to get those AA's rather than leveling up a new toon.

I don't think AA's are necessary for longevity on this server. People here are here because they want to be, and have an EQ itch that's been there for years already. Don't think they're going to quit from a lack of new content.

Just my 2cp.

Even on Live people were still trudging through Velious content on a first attempt 5-6 years later. And people have been cycling on Kunark for 3 years. Expect P99 to be here for another decade, as long as there's a Dev team to work it.

I'd like to see a global reset back to classic. Preferably leaving in all the items that Verant lamely took out for no good reason, like rubicite.
