Yes! let's completely change the armor system.

Let's Include a speed stat too.

While we're at it, That Magic system is unweildy. Let's completely rewrite it.

And those different races are just plain silly. Toss 'em out and make new ones.

What's the deal with having a mostly water planet? New setting entirely!

And AdventureQuest? What a silly name. We should come up with something else.

My point, people, is that if you change the game too much, it ain't what 
the creators of the game originally conceived. In case you haven't noticed,
the majority of the players are those who have been playing the game for
several years, and they far outnumber the newbies. Making such radical
changes alters the flavor of the game that they, and I, have enjoyed all 
these years.

It's one thing to administer antibiotics, quite another to do a transplant.

Final point. Why hasn't there been any progress in technology on Jaern in
the past 2000+ years? Aside from the dominating oppression from a nigh-
omnipotent theocratic oligarchy that does not wish it's subject humans to 
progress beyond a certaion technological level, there isn't a reason.

The big difference between Earth and Jaern is that Earth hasn't had gods
meddling since the ancient Greeks and Norse.
