Eureka is extremely boring. How do I change that?

I'd be ok with kill grinding if the xp wasn't so terrible. Even with potions of harmony and the one buff from the sprite thingy, I just feel like what I am doing isn't worth the time invested. Like I do a whole set of logs and kill like 180 things, and I barely get two levels.

You would not have liked FF XI back in it's classic days. That would be more like, No logs at all, killing 180 things would get you, maybe, 1/10 of one level.

I quit 11 pretty fast. I think I made it to 20ish around there. At first, I quit it outright, but all my friends were playing it at the time, and I'm like oil and water when it comes to 11 fans. They hate my guts because I'm just honest about the whole process. I stand by it, but if I hadn't played better mmos, I would've stuck with 11. It's because I had played better, mmos I could see how bad it was.

It's all a matter of your own opinion. You'll find just as many or more people that will tell you that your "better MMO's" are hot garbage compared to FFXI. FFXI was an MMO that essentially penalized people for being stupid and/or lazy as those types of people would struggle to gain any progress. And penalized them further if they were also the type that refuse to ask questions or ask for help.

I play games to have fun. If it's not fun, I don't play them. If I wanted to play a game that penalized me, I would play a Soulslike game. At the end of the day, if what I'm doing isn't fun, I'm not going to keep doing it. In real life, I get paid for that, and it's called a job.

yeah, which is why it sucked. They basically copied EQ, so much for originality.
