Players find the grinding aspect in the final area to be tedious and frustrating, particularly due to the mechanics involving enemies locking crystals in a vault that requires waiting for keys to drop, which can take over a minute. This design choice is seen as unnecessary and detracts from the overall experience.
- “In the final area, the enemies become more irritating as some of them put your crystals in a vault that you have to open by getting a code from clicking on keys. It doesn't make much sense, and it's quite tedious since you can spend over a minute just waiting for three keys to drop.”
- “The grinding in this game feels endless and repetitive, making it hard to stay engaged with the story.”
- “I found myself spending hours just farming for resources, which quickly became a chore rather than an enjoyable part of the game.”
