also IMO way less effort than "break 3 different elements in the same fight" or "spend 30 AP on a shadow node" or "do a run of simulated universe/hall of memories" etc.

I don't care about the short stories and the alternatives are almost always faster so I just do those

today's daily quest was almost exactly the same as yesterday's - teach a robot about the internet and despair at the consequences of that decision you'd think i would get the option to teach it about literally anything else the second time around but no, "(teach robot all about the world)" was all I got to do

Is it just me or is there just simply too many ice characters?

there's like 5 or 6 ones that just loop endlessly and randomly, there's not individual ones for every day

I feel like half the time the game wants me to do something I don't want to that costs TP, or asks me to engage with synthesis or use supports so the daily mission is preferable to any of that.

Regarding the daily quests, there usually don't seem to be faster alternatives to reaching the 500 point threshold. There will generally be 2 or 3 100 point ones that are super easy (like synthesizing something or taking a photo), but then you have to choose between the daily and some battling thing, and the battling is often more time consuming than the daily.

presumably you're actually battling stuff every day instead of just letting your energy cap out and be wasted, though? like the battling stuff is usually things like "hit weakness breaks", which will just happen on its own when you auto battle

yeah I'll smash out the synthesize/photo stuff right away and finish off the rest auto battling my stamina away. Running back and forth for the quest may take about the same time but can't be automated and isn't multitaskable. If you like the vignettes that's cool but I doubt it's more time efficient.

once i hit EL3 i stopped really caring about time efficiency because apart from the daily chores i don't really have anything to do in the game. i need materials to build the right characters to do certain content and once you run out of side quests that stuff only comes in the long term. so whether the daily chores take 10 or 12 minutes doesn't matter much to me.

does it matter for rates if i do single pulls vs 10 pulls? i know some games like to give a bonus for doing 10 pulls.

Yeah I'm at the point where if I run out of trailblazer stamina I just log off I did all the quests, got all the chests, and did all the secret achievements. I could poopsock SU but I see no interest in beating my head against that wall until my dudes and girls are more upgraded. It's going to take several weeks to upgrade everyone's traces anyways

i liked some of the inazuma sidequests in genshin but after the third chain you realize every single one is going to end with the reveal that the female npc who was leading you around was a ghost the whole time

Endorph posted:eh a lot of good ones in star rail are about rando NPCs or just the world, i recommend them I did a few on the space station and lost interest. I kindof liked the tell a guy the chick he likes is lost to time dilation and sending him off on a quest to chase her through time, could be a chris nolan movie lol. The rest were bleh, but at least there are so many fast travel points in this it makes hopping around to do the quest so much better than genshin. Holy poo poo is the writing better/shorter/more to the point than genshin though, side quests over there are like ok, run around the overworld for 20 minutes during the quest, and spend 15 minutes smashing continue while waiting for three characters to finish nodding and slowly turning to look at each other, which hard locks dialogue continuing.

Hoyo's writers still like to get a bit overly verbose instead of getting to the point but on the whole Star Rail is still leagues better than Genshin in that regard. It probably helps that we don't have a Paimon repeating every other thing that was just said.

I'm just tired of every daily mission for the last week being following some actor around for a creepy stalker chick on bael. At least each day has been a different activity/location which gives me hope its a chain that will eventually end.

I think if you get a multi-stage daily quest it'll give you all the stages before it moves on to another one

Jabor posted:presumably you're actually battling stuff every day instead of just letting your energy cap out and be wasted, though? I am, but sometimes the battling stuff doesn't get automatically completed for some reason (even though I've definitely done the requisite number of Weakness Breaks or whatever). Or it'll be something like "do an Echo of War" at a time when I don't feel like doing a time-consuming fight like that. Qwertycoatl posted:I think if you get a multi-stage daily quest it'll give you all the stages before it moves on to another one I thought this was the case at first, but I don't think it is now. I've been sent away from people and then returned to them later. I'm pretty sure I haven't finished Wallace's "find me a friend" chain (only done 2 quests from it I think), but I've been given other stuff the last couple days.
