I dont get it

Why oh why do they continue to upgrade old zones that no one even uses anymore? couldn't this time be better spent making a whole new game ?

after all the time and money into that zone it will not make one more person use it.

Ramblings of a mad man? perhaps....

I agree completely. They should be spending their time making new content or just throw in the towel. The fact that this zone merely looks passable for what we might consider mediocre graphics of today, I don't seem to get it either. Especially considering that you zone to Steamfont from Ak'Anon and Lesser Faydark, zones that look "old." I haven't played the live game in a long time but I remember that when I did, they had redesigned ogres (which looked like crap might I add) and they were standing next to the guards, with the old models. I can't even attempt to understand what they are trying to do but it can't be good. I cry every time I think about what this game could have become. But we're doing something about it .

I'm not seeing anything there that couldn't be done just as well with OpenZone, with good enough modelers doing it. And all for a zone that, like people have said, hardly anyone uses.

They need to leave old zones alone. They've fucked up Freeport, the ocean of tears, the commons, the desert of ro/oasis and now they're moving on to Faydwer. I knew it would happen eventually, but with this coming expansion in november, I'm almost certain that they're going to revamp Greater Faydark, and I bet it will be a mushroom filled deciduous nightmare like it is in EQ2.

When they do redo them they should completely redo them with no map to know where your going so it is completely new, just like the ones we make with OpenZone. But alas I guess we are just like mothers with children and no matter how much they grow up we hate to see them get hurt and Sony is totally wailing on that baby lmao

If they want to redo stuff, they need to rehire all of the people that did the art for everquest back around the kunark era, have them redo the zones and stick to the original art style. They also need to rehire jay barbeau and have him do all of the music. <3 Jay Barbeau.
