Players find the grinding aspect tedious, as the limited time for planning shots leads to a repetitive experience of dragging characters around with minimal action, reminiscent of a slow stop motion video.

“The grinding in this game is relentless; it feels like I'm just repeating the same tasks over and over without any real progress.”
