LineAge 2 - Give me back my childhood!

How long have I been familiar with the world of Lineage 2 Essence - I’m scared to even remember. For more than a decade now, I’ve known what a pre-pro nuke among magicians is called, I know the difference between a Blunt and a Sword, and when a heavy weapon for a shooting range is crap.
I started playing Lineage 2 Classic, on a server with C4 chronicles, where the magicians still had an unnerfed slip and everyone was sharpening darkscreamer, grinding sharpenings in cementori. Not like now on the classic version...
The once beloved MMORPG lineage 2 feels different, because time has also battered you. If earlier you could sit for an extra 20 minutes with the clan, now your wife is yelling from the room that you are a nerd, or even after work you only have the strength to sleep.
