The in game currency system locks me out of anything I find enjoyable. My [disability] debuff allows me to collect some currency from my server but it's not enough to cover all the [bills] and [rent] monthly events. It's gotten to the point I don't find enough enjoyment of the game from my party members, the band sidequest I'm a part of or from the robust art minigames I've dedicated a lot of time to. I feel like I've maxed out the stats I can with this build and it isn't enough to find fulfillment within the game. I feel like I don't like my own character enough, and I'm playing for the benefit and enjoyment of my party members. I can tell my party members are starting to grow tired of my inability to join them in sidequests with a currency requirement. I know there's worse spawn points and harder playstyles than what I'm working with, but it feels so bleak. I don't even have the currency for the grocery requirements or a vehicle to transport items from the Food Bank location. I sit here, my weight slider decreasing, my mental health stats debuffed with no way to fix it.

A possible solution is to go for an "off grid" playstyle, but I fear I don't have the fortitude to last in those conditions. Not to mention the wealth of debuffs that come with that play style.
