But at this point in the story menial labor tasks like these are just insulting. And they only exist because of the modern MMO's love of "do 10000000 quests".

EverQuest Didn't have this many quests. And it was nice because when you DID do a quest

A. it was usually meaningful and
B. the reward was usually pretty nice.

There was rarely filler quests. But for some reason modern MMOs feel that 10 seconds without a quest is poor design and shove them anywhere they can.
Everquest 2 has 10x as many quests as FFXIV. Everquest 1 didn't because it was a sandbox MMO and not a themepark MMO.
