AAs were nice at first, but they lead to content being tuned for AAs instead of the opposite. I.e. you had to have clerics and druids with MGB up to raid in PoP. That's shitty. And if you missed an expansion, well, sucks for you, because now you are so far behind in AA that you are useless.

Luclin wasn't as bad as people make it out to be. Ssra was awesome. There was some raids for lower-tier guilds like VaDyn, THO and IV. Vex Thal shards were not much worse than VP medallions. Most of the zones were useless (Mons Letalis, Tenebrous Mountains, etc), but overall it wasn't that bad.

Unfortunately, it's definitely not for everyone. However, you can get used to it, and once you do the community and prospect for a vast amount of raid content (more than enough for everyone) will keep you there.
I just recently started a character (or 3). Can't mouse scroll for third person. Immersed.

I would be ok with skipping Luclin and going straight to PoP. Love me some PoValor.

I'm cool with things staying Velious. The thing about classic is that, as a casual gamer, I never really felt like I "caught up" with everyone else due to the speed in which expansions came out. Here, it feels like I can make progress towards the end game... eventually.

The only single thing I miss having is the auction house. Because I hate playing TunnelQuest. TunnelQuest is the game you play while doing something else because who wants to sit there and stare at the screen for so many hours.

You don't think the dev's would be willing to put in an auction house and leave out the rest of Luclin, would they?

The zones were great. Lots of tradable stuff and the Bazaar zone the old fashioned way pretty much rings classic to my ears!

That client is far better than ours for classic play.

Real enchanter's CC'd without using cycle targeting and real kiters kept track of their kites in F9 views not scrolled out 3rd person.

You also couldn't see your mana value in that client so you don't know exactly when you have barely enough mana to cast a spell, you have to stand and try it out.

Running forward doesn't get you out of spell book or sitting, you had to stand first before you ran.

Etc. etc.

The lack of a lot of these features is what made the game more challenging in classic, coupled with worse UIs and slower internet.

Nah, the big thing was just the servers weren't as old....so people weren't as insanely equipped.
