Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and boring, as it lacks the challenge to engage them while also not being easy enough to complete quickly. The inclusion of trading cards and achievements offers some incentive, but it doesn't alleviate the overall monotony of the experience.
“The game's got trading cards and achievements, so that's a plus, but the game is so dreadfully boring. It's not challenging enough to test my brain, but it's not easy enough that I can just speed through it in a few minutes, so it just becomes tedious and boring.”
