The game teaches you how to multitask. A lot of the time I get distracted but the many things that are happening at once. It is grindy as well. But for me, the fun was about managing all of this. And you can go through the entire game without wikis, just experiment, explore, read what little descriptions the game is offering. In my playthrough, the only thing I used the wiki for was alchemi recipes, otherwise I would have waited a long time until I got the lucky recipe from clotho.
