Well, I had a reasonable amount of hours on 2k1 back in the day. (I dunno, 200 maybe?) But I wasn't a hardcore player because I only had p2p for one stint and it wasn't until maybe 6 months - 1 year after 2k1 was released. (I was an avid opponent to the release of p2p in general, free servers 4 lyfe!) So this is coming from a player who was interested in seeing the server opened but wasn't super hardcore.

The new 2k1 was too Hard! I spent about 3 hours collecting gralat and ended up with a net of like....12. First of all, the people who knew everything about the server had sprinted from the opening and got swords and would pk incessantly. So in my wandering attempts to remember where things were, I would inevitably be sucked dry of whatever precious gralat I had collected. A server I was looking forward to opening and had been jockying and contemplating kingdoms and RP for for months lost my interest within about 5 hours of gameplay.

That was the fault of this rerelease. In my opinion at least.
