They kneejerk removed alot of stuff that was actually good in 1.0. Animations were alot better, gear was made with races in mind. Lighting was alot better. WHM/BLM had different drawn weapon poses depending if they used a wand or staff which is why they WHM drawn looks so bad now, they took the one-handed drawn pose from 1.0 and removed the two-handed pose despite them making WHM/BLM one-handed weapons non-existant past ARR.
