Pretty much. I’m watching Frieren and they spend a lot of time waiting around for the weather to die down, or for specific events. Often times, they do menial tasks for the townsfolk, train, or read a book.
The last JRPG I played, I was teleporting to grind monsters, play at the casino, trying to woo a NPC, and explore random dungeons, while ignoring all the optional fetch quests.
I think I’d be bored as hell (or connected digitally) if I had to do a 6 month walk.
