I would comment, but the game's pacing was so bad that I forgot what the smurf the game was even about.
Only if you distract yourself with all the exploration and side quests the game provides!
I didn't a whole lot of hunts throughout the main quest. Usually only when beating a dungeon or something. Even without that the dungeons and fields are so long without hardly any cutscenes to keep you up on the happening in the story as well.
