But dungeon-finder PuGs with even the dread and fearful HoR weren't as grindy and miserable as Cata dungeons. HoR was HARD in the early days before you mindlessly outgeared it, and a blast to do with random people (I purely pugged, never was in a good guild). I never had that consistent experience in Cata.

I think part of the difference is motivation. The series of Icecrown Dungeons were quite simply incredible. Just the sheer dread excitement of HoR, of knowing that THE FRICKING LICH KING is marching towards you was a kick in the butt to play like crazy and take the dungeon seriously that I just don't think was equaled in the Cata dungeons.
