Hmm what is that screenshot from? Those aren't the original sky graphics, but that looks like the original classic boat, and I don't think the new sky and old boat ever co-existed.

Neat, I'm glad somewhere in the beta phases they re-did the player models. The original ones where a little odd looking

A lot looked goof, but that dwarf body builder pose was 1337.

There was probably some debate as to showable/how much showable armor and stuff there would be and how much would change, and they probably just had the ones we see in the video as standins. They made the right call in the end giving them a little less realism, polish, and making them show all the stuff [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

pre-alpha video, low quality, but check the LIGHTING (probably pre-rendered static) but imagine EQ1 with raytracing holy moly [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Were the boats workin in PoP/GoD still? I think they were and the skybox had changed some by then.

You might be right, I can't quite remember. I first quit shortly after PoP came out, then re-subbed a couple times briefly over the next like ten years, it's all very hazy.
