The new party-finder system for instances/raids actually helps a fuck-ton. I like the direction they are taking the game. It still has a lot of characteristics i love about it, and some not so much. I don't mind paying for it when I feel like playing it, but right now it's cancelled. And if I feel the need to start up again [get that ITCH bitch], all I have to do is re-enter my card and BAM. after a quick update, back right where I left off. Play for a month or two or however long the stint goes for, and cancel it again.
The only reason I do it like this is because I don't have a regular group of people to go raid/instance with. If I had a good steady consistent group or guild, I'd hop back on. Playing WoW by yourself, while possible, just doesn't do it for me
