There is still a lot of fun to be had!
Driver support for packet injection in Kali Linux is fantastic now, making it easy to spray de-auth packets with most hardware and capture your auth packets without having to wait.
I tested out Hashcat recently with my GTX 1060 (a modest card), and could burn through 170k WPA2 hashes a second. That's a long way from brute force, but doable for most wordlist attacks.
