I'd like anything that would give lv 60 chars something to do after 60 besides raid or farm. AAs + LDoN would be amazing

I friggin loved Umbral Plains. Some of the trains were hilarious, even though they killed you - one minute everything was nice and peaceful, decent xp and next just a mass of dead bodies and flailing caveman arms... loading please wait [You must be logged in to view images.

Wait for "after Velious" content... I think some custom LDON style challenges would be a welcome addition to keep P99 fresh [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

well..
I liked richness of new graphics, but it was poorly used - outdoors were just plain rectangular boxes with too few land features, elevations etc. They could have been designed better. Too many low/mid level zones in general, made world too bloated. Paludals stole newbies from everywhere with its insane ZEM. Zone level ranges were poorly thought out- some low level zones were encircled by higher level zones on both sides, preventing proper lev people from reaching them. Some zones were so out of the way and so little content - they were always empty - Scarlet Desert, Moons Letalis.
Umbral Plains - this zone always looked weird to me- its Umbral Plains - means Shadow Plains, yet it was bright as day there - the zone was suppose to be dark, or at least covered with mist. Really broke my immersion.

Dungeon wise:
Akheva and Acrylia were OK, but not really grandeur.
Griegs End - yeah was probably nice.
Vex Thal was amazing architecture wise, but ultra boring raid implementation, design as MEGA TIME SINK, rather than entertainment.

The people who invented the first space ships were brilliant. That doesn't mean anybody should actually want to use them 200 years later. Ideas are limited by means of execution. Everquest has amazing ideas that need to be completely reworked in their execution, in order for classic Everquest as it was envisioned to actually exist and continue to be relevant as things have evolved.

Fishing for treasure maps and then doing said treasure maps in Shards of Dalaya was really fun

maybe when the classic project is finished somebody can put in the work to develop luclin on a new server. Maybe even include /movelog from p99?

I wouldn't count on it. Anyone could make an EQ emulator server that has Luclin, but it would be "modern EQ minus some expansions" not "classic EQ + Luclin." To get the latter you'd need the P99 source, and as AFAIK the P99 staff hasn't shared that with anyone.

(But at least the P99 staff has expressed interest in custom content post-Velious, and that custom content would likely leverage zones from Luclin, PoP, etc.)

Actually, on Sirken's stream it was kicked around that custom content wasn't something off the table completely - once all of Velious content up to pre Luclin was finished and bug free on the server.

Veksar, Stonebrunt Mountains, Warrens, and a few other pieces of content could be fair game in being installed with a judicious eye towards the existing classic content of the game.

All of the dungeon settings introduced with LDoN? I'd say - go for it. As long as they are NOT instanced. If they were added as persistent dungeons with altered content to meet the server's needs, let 'er rip. That fake Zone wall in Oasis could end up going somewhere.
