Hahaha! Congrats! If you like the flight, you have to get the reward from Liesel 2nd affinity quest. As I mentioned, it totally changes the experience and gives traversingng the world a complete new dimension. It's plain fun just to go here and there for the joy of it! Specially if, like me, you like to "challenge" yourselve with things like passing through arcs, under big enemies, across gorges... It's awesome!
Regarding the boring/repetitive side quest, it wouldn't be an issue for me if it weren't for the absurd amount of them. With just the good ones you would already have dozens, maybe hundreds, of quality side missions. But since you have so many of them, going through the less brilliant ones sometimes becomes a tedious chore more than a joy =P
In any case, the game remains brilliant for me. It has become one of my all time favourites. Althoug I'll always be disappointed with the way they tried to close the story in the new ending... Not only for the implications themselves but for all the still unanswered questions that are left...
Good that at least, despite having invested 160 hours already, I have several hundred hours of post-game content and enternainment!
