I love leveling, but once I hit cap I get bored?

It's not just WoW, either. I love the leveling process in games; the reward feedback, the changing of talents, trying different builds and specializations. When the gameplay loop is centered around discovering the rotation that works for you, I'm hooked - and I feel as though WoW does this quite well with the Dragonflight expansion. As a new(ish) player, I quite enjoy it!

But after I hit cap, choose my main specialization and become reasonably good at my rotation, my interest in the game starts falling off. I understand that endgame has all kinds of content to keep players coming back, but for me, I begin to lose interest.

MMO's sense of scale, leveling, lore, and casual group content is what keeps me coming back. Community is very important to me, but most people playing typically don't respond to chat and appear eager to just finish another toon.

Does anyone else feel that way or is it just me? As I'm getting older I'm discovering that my tastes in video games is changing, and I'm relearning what it was I enjoyed about games in the first place.
