I even got rocked trying to do the Sightseeing Log because I can't do jumping puzzles for crap it seems, and it's the first expansion where I actually failed parts of the MSQ and had to redo them, sometimes more than once. (Apparently I REALLY suck playing as other NPCs.)

I've also come to find out I'm really not that good at other side content like the Masked Carnivale (Stage 29) or Palace of the Dead (floor 20) and the less said about my attempt at Eureka the better. I can't even like, just solo unsync most of the Extreme trials of Stormblood for the cards because nearly all of them have mechanics that can't be done alone (or at least I'm not good enough to do them alone).

So I'm stuck between all these things I can't complete and not knowing what I'm going to get stuck on next/have to give up on it partway through after trying it.
Truth of the matter is that many simply watch a guide of Dungeons and Trials because they do not want to be the ones looking bad at the game, some want the enjoyment of finding it out themself others just want to get through it without issu, decide which fits you better.
I did the sight seeing logs too, some pf the Jumping puzzle feeled less like puzzle and more like glitching at times.
Playing as other NPCs can be a problem if the game do´s not give you the time to read through what the skills they have do.

Masked Carnival is a matter I loved but still hated, I hated the fakt that the fights are rather puzzle but you have no way of knowing what spells you even will need to begin with so you go in will faile because you did not have the spell you needet to solve the problem and then have to redo it. Puzzle are not fun if the puzzle pieces are deliberetly hidden from you.
Palace of the Dead can be really mean, Traps which can kill you really fast and thow you in mob swarms that you just cannot handle, that paired with the RNG of Silver chests the only way to really get stronger in that content... well I had my fair share of deathes in there.

Eureka... yeah... Eureka is rather special contentwise, It is very much build in a way which needs you to cooperate with other players. There are leveling guides on YouTube that may make you time in Eureka easyer should you even want to do it.
