The thing is, you remember a time where story did not move at a glacial pace, and people were willing to pew and RP for a chance of their ideas (and pixels) coming to life some day in the current decade.
You have to realise one thing:
Those days are long gone.
You will get your daily raid, perhaps an event or two if Story deems the system worthy of breaking the status quo... and that's it. With all meaningful progress depending on a couple of people you are bound to end up in an increasingly static and frozen universe.
Good for "quality"? Perhaps, but more likely to end up like the masterpieces of classic literature... We read them because we have to, but hardly anyone has the time - or the willpower to look for deeper meaning in them.
