Although the change to Louise Hill is not only welcome, but desperately needed, the fact you added in numerous extra steps on top of the base for questing has created yet another avenue for too much clicking. The rewards are also disproportionate to what is required to earn them--namely in the case of alchemizing items or purchasing from the trade market--and shows what (seems like) a lack of awareness on how expensive the market has become and what even IS available from it to begin with. It has also made the game far more difficult for new players and those who may be returning--the latter often lacking a stockpile of items/currency due to liquidating thanks to the broken quest system in the first place.
