I occasionally feel the urge to return to GI but

>Sold my old account so I'd have to start from 0
>Have 6 regions+ worth of story and unskipabble paimon slop
>Missed the last 2 years of non-archived events with lore and character development and shit
>Remember character building takes ages and that gearing is a pain there
>Realize I'll never be able to pull my old waifus + the new ones
>The current meta is apparently catering to day 1 players and whales who have 15+ fully functional teams built around all the reactions

I'll just watch the aq cutscenes on YT someday
