Players feel that the game's story lacks depth, with many quests serving merely as tutorials rather than offering engaging narratives or challenges. There is a strong desire for more substantial quests, including unique personal storylines for each character, as the current offerings leave players wanting more after the initial tutorial phase.
“It seems once you complete the tutorial quests, aside from the optional extra (side) quests, there's really nothing to do.”
“Missing real quests - the current ones just show you how the game works.”
“Individual personal quests per character?”
