grinding
12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive and frustrating, often feeling that it is designed to encourage microtransactions for quicker progress.

While some players enjoy the game despite its grindy nature, the consensus leans towards it being unnecessarily time-consuming and pay-to-win.
- “The game is very hard since the upgrades on weapons don't do much (at least the early ones) and finding new ones means grinding a level many times since drops are very random.”
- “Various missions are hugely tedious, most are unrewarding; basically, the game relies on you constantly pumping real money into it (and not small amounts either - who are the losers with more money than sense?!?!).”
- “Very grindy game loop that is just simply unfair how much time it would take you to actually get to the good gear over time.”
