I'll bottom post, as is the convention here.

If you will re-read, you will see that I said "From what I saw of the
screenshots". That is a subjective observation on my part based on
what was offered on the official UXO Web site. I am sorry if you do
not like my impression of the graphics they are using to sell the game
to me.... That's why we are two different individuals. And No, I do
not play Unreal Tournament. That genere` game holds no particular
interest for me what-so-ever so I cannot form an opinion on that
basis. Who's to say that the Unreal Tourney MIGHT not be based on the
EQ engine anyway?

You will also not, upon second reading, that I said "I wonder". These
are experiences every one of the seasoned veterans in this group can
relate to. Ganking and PKing were, at one time, not just condoned
practices in this game... They were almost encouraged! To the point
that it caused a huge upheavel in the game and the creation of
Trammel.  

Nearly every person that contributes to this group on a regular basis,
Not just when somebody says something that is disliked, can tell you
of the pathetic customer service that has pretty well become the
trademark of UO and can vouch for OSI's reputation for ignoring the
plight of the individual customer.

I don't think either question is unwarrented. Nor do I think the
history of this game can override the need to ask such questions.
