But grinding and leveling up gives me a sense of progression and accomplishment. I think it becomes a problem with modern games that reduce xp rates in favor of customers purchasing microtransactions to make things faster. A good balance of grinding in rpg's is welcome imo as long as it's not ridiculous to the point of you not being able to continue parts of the game and making you play tedious side missions before you can progress *cough* assassins creed *cough*
