I haven't done the TLP train like a lot have, but I can easily say that GoD and OoW are my favorite expansions thus far (at OoW on Mangler). People who never see those expansions are doing themselves a disservice.

GoD basically was the deathknell of EQ for many players, me included, due to SOE's greed at trying to sell GoD and OoW as two seperate expansions instead of one level-appropriate one. GoD content was initially tuned to level 70 which wasn't available until OoW. Needless to say the shitstorm on the forums and the subsequent nerfing in difficulty levels did nothing to improve SOE's already turd-like reputation.

It doesn't help that you do three months of PoP and then two more months of PoP with LDoN added on.

LDoN always felt like an experimental expansion.

Can we make instanced content work kinda thing.

They all get a bit blurry around that time. I hardly remember anything about LoY.

LoY didn’t have a ton of end game content but had armor dyes and a bunch of cool (imo) leveling zones like Dulak / Gunthak. Lotta undead/pirate type mobs on a beach and some docks with boats full of mobs.

LDON had the same soulless computer generated dungeons that were just random square rooms joined together, same as that vampire add on pack for EQ2. Almost like an intern was in charge of the whole thing when compared to hand crafted dungeons with character (Guk, SolA even Velks :p )

It was probably the same goddamn intern that said 'Yep, this new Freeport is much better!'

I liked LDoN in concept although the execution wasn't great. Coming from an EQ with no pickzones, having a dungeon specifically for your group and a points rewards system where you were (if you didn't get a drop) at least working towards a reward was a decent motivator.

It could have been really great if the dungeons had been more inspired, some storytelling opportunities were left unused there. Some minibosses and visual progress through a dungeon (think Deadmines) could have made it a standout expansion. As it was, the "dungeon" expansion had the least interesting dungeons of all EQ expansions.

I remember when it came out at the time the loot was ok unless you were in the top guilds, most of it was upgrades.

Yeah, and sharing the same zone for raids hurt the raids too. There never was any sense of awe or uniqueness to the raids because you'd seen everything before. It'd been like if Seb just had a bunch of frogs milling about in Trak's area 90% of the time or something.

I have aspirations to go back and actually play for GOD and OOW and a few of those. Hasn't happened on a TLP yet -- I usually end up touching the sun and burning out due to RL reqs.

I'm a bit short on "DB cash" to do a name change, but don't wanna tie a CC to this account. Suggestions? I cannot remember a way to avoid that other than through the Steam install.
