  • grinding10 mentions

    • “An overly long and repetitively tedious tutorial leads into what can best be described as a waiting game in which the player is expected to wait and play only when the game suits itself — unless, of course, the gamer decides to invest some real money, though for the life of me, I can't imagine why anyone would want to.”
    • “It was so infuriatingly tedious that I honestly couldn't be bothered to try any further.”
