Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious, particularly when attempting to achieve all endings and complete achievements, often requiring multiple playthroughs. While some note that it isn't as grind-heavy as other titles, the repetitive nature of certain missions and the inability to skip dialogue can make the experience feel like a slog.

- “It isn't as grindy as other games, but there are a few achievements that will take you a lot of time and may affect your vision of the game.”
- “The only thing I did not like about the game was related to getting all the achievements; it was very tedious because it forces you to play the whole game again multiple times to get the different endings. I wish you could skip scenes of the characters chatting or something to speed up scenes you've already seen.”
- “Personally, I went for the Risu ending and the most complicated harem ending (which was a complete disappointment for all that effort) and couldn't stomach a second playthrough even though there's a New Game+ that lets you carry over your weapon levels, as the lag spikes and absolute slog of most missions due to the introduction of mini-demons was just too tedious.”
- “That being said, it's an okay game for one playthrough, but it's pretty tedious to max out.”
