I prefer having the 8-man raids back and unnerfing the bosses, with the only change being the removal of player requirements to start the raid (such as Colru). Most of the raids, you could have chosen to do without a full party. Many of the best players were already soloing them. So it's not like everyyone was forced to wait for 8 people (other than Colru). And at least on the US East server, it was really easy for me to fill parties even when I hosted a few days before the Rise update. We could choose if we wanted a big or small of a party, and we could choose to make the raids easier or harder. A lot of people still had fun with it.
Now you're forced to go easy mode. They nerfed the already heavily nerfed enemies, took out the options of Hard/Hero modes until you're max level, took out oaths (especially Season of Macha, the rest you can kind of do on your own if you really want). I can start a new character and progress through most of the game naked, and I could still facetank pretty much everything. There's no incentive to party because everything's so easy that it's just faster to solo rather than wait for people to join the party. They might as well just take out all the content before level 90. The people who were bored of the content before will still be bored of it. The people that weren't bored of the content before will be bored of it now. So why waste time and energy going through something so tedious and pointless?
