I am the same way, always come back to WoW. No other game has ever been able to hold my attention for long. I started right around BC release. Never took more than a two week break.
I do feel differently about BFA as well. I don’t think it is as awful as some forum goers would have you believe but it definitely does feel different this time around. I only log into my main to do her chores for flying and any other free time I get is spent on older content.(leveling mainly or old raids)
I do this sometimes just because I hate time-gating content, and I’d rather wait until they nerf it down to be more accessible than to waste hours upon hours of my life mindlessly grinding rep.
