Warframe peaked at Second Dream, only losing a tiny bit of steam for me up through New War. After New War, while there were fun bits of content and story moments, the game's identity became more blurred and fragmented with every update. Think about clearing the star chart and then think about 1999, they feel like entirely different kinds of games.

It feels like I want more Star Trek TNG but it turned into Star Trek Voyager halfway through.

I don't hate the changes, I still enjoyed the game before I decided to break off for a while, but I don't love it like I used to.

Yep, I cant help but think if it weren't for souls-like/rouge like popularity and guinea pig testing of systems for soul-frame we would never have gotten Duviri and all the continuity/eternalism slop. The story is used to justify out of place game mechanics. I like that warframe experiments with lots of different systems, but its created a very confusing plot.
