Why is race and nationality ignored so much in the lore? (why does the lore fail)

Further i'm saying that the -average- person's brain is not designed to get pleasure from monotonous boring tasks such as walking from one city to another along identical looking pathways without agro mobs. UNLESS its their first time. So if the quests had you explore new areas then there might be a benefit to them. But the fact that they have you walk to places you would normally go makes them fail.

If you enjoy meaninglessly sitting in front of a computer and walking through repetitive terrain over and over again it probably means your brain didn't properly develop or you have some sort of mental difference from the average person like an autism spectrum disorder or OCD.
Or you are just a very boring person with a lack of a drive to do anything useful

However if its cities with landmarks, if your doing something else like talking in linkshells while you do it, etc, then none of that holds.

Put another way, the human brain is not designed to enjoy monotonous repetitive tasks that take no skill (so the average person would enjoy a repetitive activity like knitting which takes coordination and thus uses your brain, but not hitting the same button over and over and over and over and over again).
Thats why all modern educational science points to interactivity as the best way to educate someone and not making them mindlessly solve problems on a sheet.

note: everything i said here is -very- simplified so don't take it the wrong way.

Rude.

Oh, well I guess that makes it OK.
