The problem was Nexon makes them so horribly monotonous and repetitive that I just can't pretend it's fun - It takes so long for each milestone that there's no real sense of progress because the finish line never seems to move any closer for most tasks. Monster book for example , I can't say "Oh just five hundred more slimes and I'll get my next card", it could be 5, 500, or 5 million.
As an avid monster book collector, this was my biggest gripe with it. It should have been a random drop, but it also should have been a quest too, where you could select an empty slot in the book, select an option like "start hunting" and if you killed some predetermined number of the monster the card becomes yours. At least then even if you spent a four hour 2x drop card hunting for it and nothing dropped you'd at least have something achieved. But that's all gone now
