In SB, there's really no "breathing" room so you'll have more fun.

Disagree, but to each their own.
ARR did have a lot more of the pointless "Go talk to X, then come back so I can send you back to verify what X said, so you can then come back and confirm/deny what was previously reported, etc." thing going on, especially considering linkpearls are a thing*, but SB relishes the "It's a new village! Ingratiate yourself via mundane tasks!" trope.

*Find it especially amusing they eventually started just going with "Linkpearl communications can be intercepted, so we can't use those!" as a justification to avoid that argument going forward...
