Grind is found in a great many games these days, so much so that one could be convinced that it's all a part of the fun. But is that really true?

As a long time Dragon Quest fan, the answer is yes. Grinding is a lot of fun.

I also like grinding in rpgs. I get it it's not everyone's tea but when I see level caps and things of that nature it turns me off. I'll come home from work and just be beat, so I just run around grinding. I'm using dq11 as my example because it was brought up.

The article brought up persona 3 reloaded. Idk what to tell you. I'm glad it's like that.

Not when the grind exceeds 15hrs a day then it’s worse than a full time job

If the results in the end are good and it isn't insane then yes. Although persona 3 reload could...use a money reward boost lol.

Just get the rare enemy fortune before you go to Tartarus. Haven't ever struggled for money because of it.

depends how it's done. If it offers you the chance to enjoy the combat for longer than the campaign does without wearing it down, then the grind is fun asf

If the combat has enough variety yes. Like P3R or LaD Infinite Wealth

I used to buy cheap games thinking I’d play them later, but I always ended up returning to my favorites. Now I skip the deals unless I know I’ll play the game soon.

This is very true, my nephews grew up on these two games and whenever I introduce them a AAA game whether old or new, it's like seeing an alien try to make sense of it and then quickly lose interest in it.

Can’t really expect a 8 year old Roblox kid to go buy resident evil 9 lol

Gaming trends are so weird to me now. Like, I’m old school and games were consumed essentially how movies were. You play through a title and look forward to the sequel or other things that came out. Now, that is so not the norm.
