It's weak - It's a glorified tutorial as is the rest of the game leading up to end-game. It wasn't "bad", it just wasn't what I'd expect. Never have I played a FF game that sent me on pointless fetch quests and grind quests that wasn't relevant to anything - Even the broken VII's sidequests were relevant to at least characters/the world.

Slaying 5 marmots doesn't teach me about Dalamud nor did fetching laundry.
