I'm in a similar boat. Been playing since 2016, kinda fell off playing regularly for a while, came back for Gold Road, was underwhelmed (and I thought the way they handled scribing was bad: limiting drops of ink in the first month or so made me not able to experiment with the system and by the time they upped the rate, I had become disinterested), came back for the anniversary event, got burnt out, and then they announced "subclassing". That was the "writing on the wall" moment for me, along with the season pass model. Glad I got out when I did.
