Fallen London – Benefits of Playing Red Opportunity Cards

fallen-london

I realize that in Fallen London, a red bordered opportunity card means that once clicked, it is immediately played, and cannot be ignored.

But it seems that every red opportunity card I play leads to bad dreams and regrets.

It appears to be one of the more benign cards I've encountered, but this an example of what I always seem to find (probably contains some minor spoilers):

Red Bordered Card
This is the card and initial description.

Result
And this is the result.

Am I missing a deeper purpose to these items, or are they just a waste of my time?

Do red Opportunity cards ever lead to positive results, or should I just avoid them?

While most of these cards are dream cards that cause nightmares, even nightmares can be... educational if you manage to follow them all the way to the end of the dream. In general you will find them pretty annoying until you have some way of reliably removing nightmares, then you can make better use of them.
