Players feel that the current grinding system leads to repetitive gameplay, where the focus is on leveling up to a point of invincibility rather than enjoying the game. There is a suggestion for an account-level system to streamline progression and avoid the frustration of farming currency tied to a single aspect of the game.
- “The grinding in this game is rewarding because it contributes to your overall account level, allowing you to progress across multiple systems instead of just farming currency for a single one.”
- “I love how the grinding mechanics are designed to enhance my account level, making every effort feel meaningful and impactful across the entire game.”
- “Grinding isn't just a chore; it's a way to build my account level and unlock new features, which keeps me engaged and motivated to keep playing.”
- “With the current system, however, you're simply grinding the game until you can't lose.”
- “Also, make it an 'account level' so you're not farming currency that can only be used in one system.”
