Unironically what ended up happening.

A solid story, and despite the COVID delay Bozja, Delubrum Reginae, and Zadnor ended up keeping me entertained along with the EX trials having dragon mounts which I liked to farm.

And now we're at the story having 800+ pages of criticisms levied at it, a Deep Dungeon that no one needs because people levelled to max earlier thanks to extended patch cycles, terrible trial weapons and mounts, and no unique relic content. Exploratory zones for this expansion being sacrificed at the feet of dead on arrival Island Sanctuary and Criterion Dungeons will come to be regarded as one of the darkest moments in this game's history.

Assuming 7.0 and 7.X don't somehow manage to be worse. As much as I want to see the game do well, how can I hope for any improvements when all of my confidence is gone?
