Very sad to see you didn't enjoy the new raid. I absolutely loved it. And the new raid gear has a tattered feel and look to it which I like, looks nice.
But if you don't enjoy it anymore, you shouldn't play it. Even if these guys make strong points for you to come back, bottom line is that it isn't fun for you anymore and it really is time to move on. There are plenty of games out there, as you've said.
I still look forward to reading your ppr on anything that makes you excited. Because that's what video games should do. Make you excited.
