Some people really do just like the repetition. I have a couple friends that regularly log into multiple games to do their dailies. Like it's a chore that just has to be done. But like completing chores in real life, it may not feel satisfying in the moment, but there's a certain kind of satisfaction you get from completing a task, marking it off the to-do list. If that sense of satisfaction can be granted and wrapped in a pretty package with maybe even a reward that will finally net you that thing you've been eyeing in the cosmetic shop and saving up your gold to buy.

I don't get that sort of thing. But I'm also shit at IRL chores.
