I'm in a similar boat here. It takes a lot to get motivated to grind knowing howl ong it'll take, especially with some rarer items/LEing if nessecary. I only spend so much time on the game, and ot make matters worse, it makes me just want to RP -- but not a ton happens in RP without events, which I can't do without grinding first.

To boot, the loot rates are so low it's not fun to grind for items -- I do miss the cores, and other things too. It feels similar to G6, just slightly less satisfying to grind for things -- and it takes longer. For someone with limited time, that's not really an improvement for me- - the sentiment was more grind was needed to make the journey more enjoyable, but its not long enough to be a journey, and nobody is designing events for the low level characters (or at least, I assume not -- I could be wrong). So it's a tough place.
