Keep in mind you're only going to get the most pessimistic of responses on an internet forum where people love to complain (misery loves company), but you should have made up your mind on whether or not you would pull trigger the nanosecond after you finished interviewing at xyz legacy. The worst place you can be is sitting exactly where you are, with an offer in hand, and not knowing what to do with it.
It is in my best interest for you to move on since you're senior to me, but I think at this point if you don't know what you want then you should stay.
I know it sounds harsh, but I say this as someone who came into adulthood as a very indecisive person. Luckily I had a highly successful mentor who sat me down and helped me get through it.
