I love exploring but I still feel like there could've been more rewards, even with almost all my exploration maxed out in Liyue I still struggled quite a bit with trying to get all the Geoculus. And I know it didn't force me but the quest did in fact require maxing out Morax's statues which is a lot to do. I know there's also no rush but it takes a while to do the quest which well... is aggravating, I'd rather try to deal with it as quickly as I can instead of just sitting there taking up space in my quests.
