Yes. You'll need to write a replacement that iterates through 64-bit pointers (8 bytes) and address spaces (no longer limited to 4GB)

ROFL.
It's going to be hilarious to see how many "totally not botting" folks disappear for a while.

It’s not the same because the spell effect trick doesn’t make it trail properly in the character hands like it used to.

For about a few hours, maybe a few days at most. I'd be extremely surprised if someone doesn't have a build that works on day one.
MySEQ I can imagine will be updated within hours.
The 64 bits in the Nintendo 64 were seldom used. It was more of a marketing gimmick.
The memory bus was only 9 bits wide, for example. So you'd be bottlenecked elsewhere, not even considering the low clock speed.
It won't fix shit like that. The only two things it fixes are things that aren't actually ingame.
You have a better chance at the MQ2 developers fixing shit like that than the Daybreak devs at this point.

Maybe it's wishful thinking but I was assuming that the 64 bit architecture was part of a general rework of the client to bring it more in line with modern games. The UI not scaling to 4k being one particular sore spot.
Microsoft is dropping support for 32 bit CPUs with Windows 11 (although not for 32 bit software) although you had to try really hard to build a 32-bit-only PC in the last 15 years.

It doesn't level up correctly either if I recall. It was so badass when at level 1 your Skin like wood was just a feeble green, and then at level 14 it had some tiny bits of blue in it, and then some orange, and then some gold and then finally it was a firework of badass.

If I remember correctly, the new spell effects system was part of the Legacy of Ykesha expansion. At the time, we thought it was cool, but in hind sight, we lost a lot of really coolness that was the original EQ with that change. Cleric heals and buffs used to be so impressive before they changed it.
