Meta for players with little time? - English

First of all : if you only play video games for 15-30 minutes a day, it's because you're tired of playing video games, it has nothing to do with Ryzom. Like your real life takes over your virtual life, doesn't it make sense ?
Ryzom is not designed to play only 15 minutes a day, just like most video games.

Obviously there *are* games where I can actually spend little time and still get some fun; it's just that Ryzom fails to be one. ETS2 springs to mind because I actually play it exactly like this: start game, do a (short) haul, quit game. Heck, even a Dota game with bots can go under 30 minutes. Various dungeon crawlers allow the same.

I am acutely aware that Ryzom was designed with the "long haul" in mind, and with immersion. But, pardon my language, not all of us want an hour-long foreplay session just to get started; some prefer quicker action. Even if I had an empty three-hour slot in front of me, I'd still rather game for half an hour, and then go do something IRL; never said I'm a "gamer".

Hence the question here.

Ryzom, like most other comparable games (I know, Ryzom is not comparable to any other game :-) ) is not designed to really make fun with only little time to play.

I have a friend that plays ESO. In a similar timeframe, she could log in and do daily missions, except those are actually somewhat fun, and the reward is somewhat useful to you. This is not the only example, but one.
