I was so close to resubbing the other week, but then I remembered the reason I quit hasn’t changed, I want an mmo that doesn’t fundamentally change every major patch or expansion, I want my progress from a year ago to matter.
If I decide to take a break for a few months I want to resume with what I was doing, not basically have to restart an entire new chain of quests/dungeons/raids because the latest patch has invalidated all previous content and no one is running it anymore.
May I recommend Guild Wars 2 or Elder Scrolls Online. Neither have really increased the numbers so gear from years ago are still up to date. May not be meta but still up to date. GW2 for example has the Berserker stat combination and it has been the go-to for direct damage builds since launch. 10+ year old gear still does its job!
I played ESO for awhile, it’s really good, but I just miss the feel of WoW 😭
I’m planning on playing Season of Discovery, hoping they won’t fall back into the same pattern of progression. Well hoping but not holding my breath, I don’t think I have any faith in blizzard anymore, I’m just going to try enjoy it while it lasts
