Trials are the momentum killer, just the most unfun, tedious content you could ever imagine. I mentally checked out of the story already and probably wont finish it those trials are sooooo bad.

Duty roulette is a double edged sword playing with randoms is fun, but being thrown in a dungeon you don't remember can be pure suffering, ive been there.

whats keeps me playing idling and casual dungeon runs

tl:dr grit teeth through all of it since alot of content isnt really that enjoyable.

its not early 2ks anymore the groups that just wanna banter and chill dont exist anymore, I havent found any since then.
