Are you seeing a lot of new players because of EJ?

Yes, tons. And many have subscribed too. I've probably spoken to 20 or so who subscribed while starting on EJ. I've seen many more than the ones I spoke to run around.

I subbed 3 days ago to check it out. Not sure how I feel bout it.......haven't played OSI since 1998-2004 and there's a huge learning curve not knowing what the modern templates are with the new skills.  Seems like they made the game more gear based than it used to be.

I made a bard thinking that's how I usually make money on a server but it seems really grindy as a new player. The normal places I'd go are dead or different mobs than I remember.  Even raising stats is completely different, I macroed herding for Str and it only raised int/dex, Used to start with 1 herding and macro until stats were set, then train, not anymore.

But the biggest thing that will probably make me quit is lack of Razor/UOSteam utilities, even sheering wool from sheep, targeting, double clicking doors, training characters, etc is giving me carpel tunnel for no reason in a 20 year old game.

Macroing using a screen clicker means my client has to be in focus, can't do anything else on the computer. I installed the enhanced client and quickly closed it, not the game I remember. I hate to say this but I've had a lot more fun on the private servers...
