I'm 130hrs in but I'm still pre-Moonrise Towers, currently wandering around a poisonous bog of some sort, so no spoilers please

I'm finding the game repetitive and I think it's my own fault? Am I taking the game way too slowly by following every narrative thread and opening every crate etc?

Should I skip some narrative beats?

Should I change my team's subclasses to mix up combat?

Any advice appreciated

and opening every crate etc?

Unless you're really hurting for camping supplies, this definitely wasting your time. In my playthroughs I've ended up with soooooooooooooooooo much excess camping supplies by the end of the game.

It's not a bad idea early game to pick up the supplies, but Act I is just chock full of camping supplies. Act II has far fewer because of the Shadow Curse. Nobody is living there and all the food is rotten.

a poisonous bog of some sort

I do not remember a poisonous bog, I just remember the Shadow Curse, which sort of acts like poison and slowly kills you if you don't have a type of protective spell.

Poisonous bog is likely where the green hag is, and the uhh.. 'sheep'

Could be around the hag, but idk how you could be 130 hrs in and still be there.
