Agree, I did it back in the Wrath/Cata days, quests adventure, without a rush and lots of dungeon diving.

Fun.

Second I hit cap in Wrath I started realising what the heck gearscore was, did a raid or two, then called it. It wasn't fun to me, especially when I got abused for not being "optimised".

The adventures and the world were great though.

    Raiding community seems to be extremely toxic. I feel like the level of challenge Blizzard brings with raids doesn't resonate with casual players who just want to see the content of the expansion. If there could be levels like in dungeons, this could greatly alleviate it. Until then, the difficulty mechanic applied in raids (more players = more boss HP) will inevitably lead to conflicts once weaker players want to join the party.

    Somewhat similar issues appear with Mythic dungeons, but there at least they added a gradual increase of difficulty. Imagine going for, like, Mythic +5 right after Heroic, and this is what you get when you just want to see raiding content without grinding for hundreds and thousands of hours of the absolute same dungeons over and over again.
