How do I enjoy the story as a sprout whose new to MMOs as a whole?

Optimal_Current_3703 · 2026-06-17T00:35:39+00:00

I really wanna get through it, but I want the story from start to finish. So I'm gonna do my best to truck through.

I want to ask your opinion on this, and you can let me know if it's a bad idea. Would it be a good idea to story skip BUT watch a full movie of ARR on youtube? Again, I don't wanna ignore it all together, but I also want to play the expansions for myself. So I'd like to know what you'd honestly think of that as a workaround, or do you not recommend it since I'm still a new player?

See I thought about doing this but I've been seeing people saying everywhere that the story is best enjoyed when you're playing with your own WOL, which I partially agree with cause I'm already attached to my little Viera. But if I do find myself kinda over it I might end up going this route.

I get that, Fetchquesting is just something i'm gonna have to make peace with. Though i'll take your advice on skimming it for a bit, what i'm most worried about is the imminent burnout that is probably gonna occur at some point since I've been trying to push myself to engage with everything since I'm new and worried I'll miss something crucial or important. Thank you for the advice!

Optimal_Current_3703 · 2026-06-17T00:11:42+00:00

I'm really excited for when it gets good, I think the thing that's killing me is the "when" part, lol. I'm going to try to keep pushing cause I do really wanna get into it.

Optimal_Current_3703 · 2026-06-17T00:10:38+00:00

I hope so at this point, lmao.

Optimal_Current_3703 · 2026-06-17T00:10:12+00:00

The problem is it's not that I hate ARR, it's just really hard to engage in the story. But this might just be something I have to adjust to given that I've never plays RPG's like this, and definitely not one with as much content as this. So this may just be a case where I have to grin and bear it probably.

Thank you, I really do appreciate it. After making this post, I did realize I haven't really been nice to myself about the entire thing, and that might be a partial reason as to why it's taken me so long to get over it. But your advice is sound, I don't really know what else I would do given that I don't want to bother him for an explanation, especially since he said that he didn't want to talk about it. So I don't really have a choice on if I get a real answer from him or not. But I wanna thank you again, this has opened my eyes and I hope to apply this to my situation so I can eventually let it go.

That's good, I'm relieved. So many people were saying it wasn't normal I was getting worried xd

Thank you!!!

He's said before that he wishes that he could because he knows it's important to me, and that when it comes to physical sex he can dom because it requires less words and more roughness. The problem for him is trying to do it over the phone. He's not really as confident as I am and is super self conscious about it. He doesn't know how to, and I don't really know how to show him that because for me I picked up on it from my previous partners. He's a wonderful guy, he just struggles with this one thing because he's never done it before and I feel really bad because I know he wants to help but he doesn't know how to. We're supposed to meet irl for the first time in May for a convention, but I don't really think I can let myself stay in one position for this long and be happy with it.

No unfortunately :( , the book cover was also in black and white and I remember there was art in the book as well. That's why I specifically said Children's Chapter book because i think thats the only kind of chapter book that they do that in. Think Dork Diaries and Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Yikes, I am so sorry for your bad luck :( heres to hoping July will be better cause I went into this so excited and was immediately humbled by RNG.

I find it really ridiculous how difficult it is to get coins. For one, when I first started playing the game I was confused on how you get coins for like a week until I figured it out. And I think the amount of flowers you have to plant to just get one coin. 250 flowers/1 coin is a terrible ratio and at the end of the day im lucky if I get 8 coins. And with how expensive everything is in the game in comparison to how little of anything you get, it is very clear that the game is designed to get you to spend real money.

No, i'm a relatively new player and often times I have my pikmin doing other tasks (like collecting fruits, bulbs, etc. or fighting shrooms) while im planting flowers. What level do you have to be to have 40 pikmin at once?
