Multi-floor “enemy guantlet” sidequests. They’re always terrible. Every single one.

If you want to make me fight a bunch of enemies, just put me in a single room with a bunch of enemies. Don’t make me go inside a cave, kill the easiest enemy in the game, watch a cutscene of me going to the next floor, kill the second easiest enemy in the game, watch another cutscene, rinse and repeat for an hour and a half.

I’ve already gotten this far into the game. Clearly I am capable of killing baby enemies. Stop making me spend ages just to get to the actual challenge. The easiest way to make me not want to 100% a game is to tell me that theres an enemy guantlet side quest.
I feel like this is more a failure of the quest design. It's easy for quest to string a narrative together that isn't just go to location and kick five babies.
