Oh man, that takes me back. I wanted to like 1.0 so badly, but so much just seemed so baffling with why it was designed that way. Like they were proud of ignoring the innovations in mmos that made them better, for some reason.

I do miss the mini-games in gathering, while the new system is easier and faster. The boat rides too, but i don't miss that clunky menu system, control scheme, and lack of auction.
