indecisiveness

ysobelI keep vaguely wondering if I should wander back to GW. Not as a replacement for WoW, just as a ... supplement.
See, there are some things I like better about WoW. (A non-comprehensive list would include: mounts, especially flying ones; greater access to more spells/abilities; professions; hunters always having pets; jumping; and the vast amounts of non-PvP soloable endgame stuff, as well as mass PvP that you can do okay at even if you suck.)
But -- sometimes -- I still find myself missing GW. (Graphics; map travel; unlimited ammo; the BPA and boat crew; henches, even if they are mostly stupid, and heroes, who aren't much brighter but at least can be customizably stupid; dyeable armor; salvage kits; necros; better flexibility of skillsets, if one parallels secondary class to talent trees.)
Except ... part of that is the people, most of whom (at least on the boat crew side) probably don't remember me at all, and even if they did, it's been years. And my fingers and reflexes are attuned to WoW, not GW. And I had basically quit well before WoW came into the picture, and there's no guarantee I'd find it any more satisfying.
(I think what I miss is not so much GW as being really happy playing GW. which is a different and more elusive thing.)
