If that is truly the case then "the modern MMO way" sucks in a major way and is a big fail.

As a new player I will be most displeased if it turns out that there are significant parts of the game that I will not be able to run/experience just because the old players no longer feel a need to run it.
You're in for a ride then. From vanilla to this expansion, it has been 2 years and they added 3x 24 man raids, 3x hard 8 man raid, around 8 extreme versions of the bosses you will have fought in the story mode (they drop stuff, story bosses generally don't). All obsolete. You know the 'CT' on this thread's topic? That's one of the 24 man raids.

No, as a new player reaching to lvl 60 after this point, you spam TWO 4man dungeons until you can buy starting endgame gear and then you have two things to do: spam those two dungeons some more for your 2nd highest max gear or do the easy 8 man raid for your 3rd best gear to fill out your gear slots. Then you can think about doing the hardest raid for the best gears, which is basically just the hard version of that simple 8 man raid you just did. Oh I suppose I should mention that the expansion added 2 new primal boss battles but they're obsolete at this point too! Did I forget to mention that the majority of the next content updates will be the same structure and they're all instanced? Good times ahead.
