The Classic Experience - Death to Recharging

You don't decide what is wanted!

Do you often put yourself in the shoes of your opposition to voice their position?

Why does anyone post on a twenty-plus year old elf sim forum?

Fair enough.

The staff has always been about classic EverQuest: that hasn't changed, so there is nothing to mourn. The only thing that has changed is that their specific path to achieving classic EQ: that path has always involved a mix of classic and unclassic mechanics ... but now it veers slightly further away from classic mechanics.

So to answer your question, no: it truly does not bother me that the staff is working hard to re-create classic EQ here. Why should I care that this place went from 98% classic mechanics to 97.5% ... when it feels more classic overall, and it was never 100% in the first place?

Does that mean I <3 every exploit fix? Of course not: as I said, the SG glitch nerf has felt wrong to me ever since Velious was released, and I suspect it will always feel wrong. If we're going to let people bind in TD, I personally feel there should be a period of time where you can glitch through SG on Green.

But would I rather have a server where the straff prioritizes classic mechanics over everything else? God no! That's how we got single bards monopolizing Overthere, and AoE groups monopolizing Chardok, two things that no one alive remembers on live servers in 1999-2001 ... because it never happened.

I want the game from '99-'01 ... don't you?

Is this double think?

is that you John Wayne, is this me?

I really wish I could dev. I literally have the time on my hands but totally lack the ability to network and code and draw textures.

I would make elf heaven for you all in the vein of 1999.

RIP elf friends. RIP.

Its not the classic game though. When i played velious there was no yellow text when you aggrod a dragon and city leaders/tov was rotated between the two top guilds.

Sorry you’re not getting classic

Occasionally. Like Cazic Thule its more of a 'bring your own party' dungeon. No one sitting at the zone in LFG.

yeah what a hugely necessary change for people "to be able to experience Chardok"

Buttttt moooooncats.

Still interested in takp. It's the purest EQ aside from 99 and live and the community over on takp is actually like fun to interact with surprisingly.
