I think another one of the glaring faults in Eureka is something many of us can agree on. The quest is just so bland it's almost unenjoyable.

When I first heard that the quest line would focus on finally seeing the isle Val after it disappeared in ARR, I was ecstatic. I was looking forward to a rather good sidequest story. But coming to it, so far, it's just meaningless. Most of it is just us having to walk off into an area with enemies that are sure to curb stomp us so we can get a magicite. And in Pagos, so far, none of them were actually useful. We only get a few tidbits of story here and there but really, it's just not a good quest.
