I started playing back in September, and I probably would have played/enjoyed it more if the events/character progression expecting you to be at the end of the current content hadn't soured my experience so much. Nothing more frustrating than your shiny first 5* lagging behind in levels because she requires Inazuma mats that I can't get to ascend, as well as time-gated events that depend on you being there to do. I refuse to be rushed by games, so I'm more inclined to just play something else than feel like I have to grind through the story for hours.

Yeah I started mid August so I felt this, although the September events were a bit more lax to get to. There's just a weird tension with the new player progression in the game. The story honestly isn't that long if you focus on it, but that means you aren't exploring the map as much which is the fun part. But taking your time and exploring ranks up your AR, which means now you have to grind mid-story plus don't have Inazuma materials. You can put off the grind by sitting at one of the World Ascension gates but that also feels bad. Probably still better than rushing because it keeps your characters from falling off.

Since most of next patch's events are centered around Dragonspine, hopefully the prereqs aren't too bad and don't require Archon Quest progress. Not sure if we know them yet but I'd expect to have to do the main world quest there and maybe a character quest or two.
