I know it's my decision and no one else can make it for me but it doesn't hurt to get some perspective.
I quit playing WoW roughly a year ago and before that till the end I was a very active player and didn't take any breaks for at least 3 years.. maybe a little more. The reason for quitting was just boredom. I realized that I was forcing myself to log on to get the chores done each day and because of my guild so one day I just decided to to take a few days off, then it grew into a few weeks off, a few months .. until now.
So why am I considering return then? I guess the main reasons are nostalgia, most of my old guild still playing and I kind of miss the BGs and the atmosphere too a little.
So questions for those who still play it
-Does WoW still reward team play and playing with others? I'm mostly interested in small scale group play (5-10 people) where everyone is more or less casual. I wouldn't want to be "forced" to PuG because it's just less hassle and easier that way..
-How is PvP? I hated it in Cata when it took like 15 minutes to kill one player and usually they just got healed up or escaped before they died. One of the main reason I got bored was that I couldn't do BGs any more.
-I liked it when the numbers were small and clear. I immediately knew that a shadowbolt that hit for 2000 was good in TBC.. later it just became "some big number" and I didn't even notice it any more. I know they didn't do the big crunch already but how disruptive is it for someone who doesn't like big numbers? Has it already made the gear unintelligible as well.. like 45535 int chest or a weapon that gives 108000 spellpower.
-And the biggest one of them Ive heard disturbing things about MoP, that it's childish or asian or just bad or grindy. Now it will most likely not end well but how about and objective opinion? I liked the themes of all WoW expansions well enough. I liked the lore and everything, so will I like MoP as well? Provided that I like WoW and not some parody or pop culture reference? I usually try to keep an open mind but if it's like the Indiana Jones zone in Cata, it will probably not be for me and it might be best to wait for a new expansion.
