Yeah I’m like this with World of Warcraft. Haven’t seriously played it since 2017 but still follow news about it. I’ve come to terms with the fact the game is now utterly uninteresting to me but it’s comforting to still keep up with it somewhat. Only really accepted this strange situation as fact recently
I do the tourist thing now with WoW but I’m still talking with players, especially since my duo partner never stops playing.
Less so now, though, since /r/wow was where I participated the most.
Same. I played a lot of WoW. I was a US top 5 raider in MoP/WoD. I wrote guides on icy-veins and WoWHead.
Then even though I quit at the start of Legion, I’ve stuck around in the community and occasionally still post/contribute, but it’s getting rarer and rarer the more the game moves on without me.
I feel you haha I also played a lot. (I was raiding at world top 50ish level though)
Also quit at the start of Legion. RNG legendaries screwed me twice (“bad luck prevention” gave me bad ones on two separate characters) and I was beginning my corporate career at the exact same time. I hear it got even worse with artifact power shortly after. Super unfun to be so far behind because RNGsus says “no, you in particular must spend a shitton more time grinding”
