I think this would be a good idea, only problem is people that are used to custom UIs at this point would probably hate this idea considering the server has been open for so long already.
Need to just rip off the Bandaid(R) brand bandage sometimes.

People have got too comfortable and lazy. They need to be reminded that this is called Project 1999 for a reason. If you do not want to play 1999-era Everquest, then this is not the right server for you. Nilbog has stated in the past that he will force a classic UI with a full-screen meditation book on all of us the exact moment he is able to code it to do so.

I agree with him.

Well awesome, so do I. Hopefully it can get worked out.

People should not get "used" to things that are not classic here as they are very likely to change. Hopefully night time vision and the UI can be done as icing on the cake along with the spells effects. Mechanics should always come first.

2. The proper "classic" darkness vision for Humans, Erudites, Barbarians cannot be recreated here because "darkness vision" was edited out of the Titanium client.

Defining EverQuest fear is running through Kithicor at night as a newb trying to get that 6th spot in a Highpass group.. Praying that the last few seconds of your SoW last as your run blindly up the wall..

Please let us return to that. It was a foundation for what great MMOs should have become. Ones that satisfy the niche of players who appreciate a real online interactive world where players have reputations and actions have consequences (social ones too).

Nostalgia level off the charts for old UI / night time if it came tomorrow.

That is a big part of the reason that I occasionally log into EQMac, because I can play with the old UI. Brings back so many good memories of just how awesome MMOs can be. Although that UI forces you to have such a small screen it is how the game was played in 1999 so I'm all for that implementation if it is possible.

I think this should definitely be a part of the much-rumored "timeline server", or maybe a future iteration thereof... make you have to really want that pre-nerf guise just a lil bit more than the next nerdy d-bag.
