It is the difference between using a folding paper map on vacation and having a cellphone/GPS with Google Maps
norrath map has even less info on map than wiki maps does.. its simply a faster way to find your location and where you are trying to go.. sorry but i dont have fun taking more time off my day than needed to play a video game trying to find my way to do something productive.. if this was a modern mmo with good graphics I might take a moment to enjoy the scenery with my 2.5k dollar pc..

I'm here to group, xp, quest, gear up.. in other words to enjoy what everyone else loves about this game.. taking an extra 10-20 minutes lost trying to find a zone in a 15 year old elf sim, being a casual player with limited game time.. is not my cup of tea.. I don't have 23 hours a day to play like some of you "omgwtfnotclassic" people.
I have 4-5 hours to play a week, generally. But no maps is classic. This is the point where "there are other games" becomes a legit thing to say. There are other eqemus and EQLive itself that provide the experience you desire.

I didn't say this isn't the experience I want. Don't get me wrong, if I didn't love this game I would have simply left a long time ago. I just found norrath map to be a huge time saver getting around.. its not gonna make me quit or anything, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who would rather find their way quickly to what they want to do than spend an extra 10 minutes trying to remember where the hell guk entance was for example.

Yes, it was a huge time saver, along with many other things, like luclin travel, pok books, memorized gem presets, etc.

Classic is about not having a lot of those timesavers.

You call it time wasting, some of us call it immersion.
