<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

I have been what I would call a hardcore gamer since the NES. I absolutely loved (and still do) the Zelda franchise, Metroid, Sonic... Etc etc. When WoW came along I resisted the subscription based game like the plague, but as more and more of my friends started I just couldn't resist any more. Four years and 600 hours played later I quit ~2011, and was so burnt out on gaming that I just basically stopped all together. Now I really miss gaming but can't find a game that holds my interest. I think all that time playing WoW makes games that end seem almost like a waste of time.
<bot>: What non-MMO game would be best for me to jump back in that gives a good sense of accomplishment when you finish it?
