I did quest "Noise in the woods" and you know it gave me 70 k xp. That's a LOT.
I'd say screw these new quests and do only old grind quests but most of these do not exist anymore.
Same goes for starter quests like "What women want" in EV.
Almost all new... that's supposed to be classic?
The only way to feel old-style gameplay is to not take those new quests actually.
