CoX is NOT becoming a "raiding game". This game just celebrated 7 years about two months ago. Of that time, only about the last year has had these incarnates show up. There is still SIX YEARS of team and solo play available to everyone right now, and once Freedom hits STILL available for everyone.
The three current trials/raids DOES NOT mean the end is near, cats and dogs living together, or human sacrifice. As I said, SIX YEARS of small team and solo development, and three larger group trials will NOT kill the game. Just because there has been, of late, a greater concentration on I guess you would call it "end game content" does not mean that the rest of the game is being ignored and thrown by the wayside. Hardly. In fact, it means the opposite, with greater depth being explored.
:O I usually take the meaning of "end-game contents" as contents you may experience once you hit the maximum level. Don't be too serious, pal. you are playing a game, not one of the days your life pursues.
