So I tried the enhanced client finally. It runs good, and I love the "smooth" style of movement. For pvp purposes, the automatic avoidance of trees is wonderful and a bit overpowered. The backback is actually a nice change, and I like the chat interface (hitting Enter first really makes assigning macros to keys less painful.)
That being said:
My character looks stupid. Part of the joy of an MMO is popping open your profile and checking out your handiwork. "Damn that new artifact looks sweet" "That dye job goes perfectly!" etc etc. Don't deny it. It is a part of the UO joy. Right now, characters look so bad, it makes using the 2D worth it purely based on looks. This NEEDS to be looked at. Is it possible to integrate 2D profiles and characters with the other enhanced features? If they phase out the classic client for this, they will lose subscriptions.
