That’s how it always starts with mmos. You take a little break for a day, turns into a couple of days, then a week, then a month and what mmo was it again? Pretty sure that isn’t the intention when they develop an expansion.
It just reminds me of when I played rift a few years back. It was just plain boring, took a break, waited for an update, nothing exciting happened. Haven’t returned to the game since and I never will because I left unhappy.
