I been there Breh just spent Monday-Friday leveling up And the weekend taking the fight to the boss...the worst leveling was in this game I had called blue dragon seems like I was leveling for over a month and don't bring up the mmrpg smdh a lot of time brehs

Funny you should say that because once you get certain ablilities you can fight gold and platinum poos until you hit level 99 and all the bosses are cake.


Level grinding inn NES era was wayyyyy worse.

Around 27% of the world population suffer from some form of obsessive compulsive disorder (and most go undiagnosed.) That is the target audience for these games.

Yea these people overdo this level grinding shyt.

I get that they are trying to imitate long training but that is a really poor way to do it.

Level grinding isnt fun and if you find it fun then you have issues that need to be diagnosed by a professional.

IMO, you're really not supposed to be 'grinding'. it's usually an exploit of some ingame mechanic that people use to artificially increase their level

:yeshrug:I like level grinding. I don't do it in insane amounts, but I do enough to have my character a lil overpowered later on.

But yeah, it's not for everybody.

I hate that shyt.

I was playing Ragnarok Online on my phone, and I been stuck at Level 30 for over a month :why:

I feel like you should only have to grind if you're new to RPGs. Strategy should play a much bigger role in succeeding than just wasting mad man-hours grinding enemies.

I never finished Dragon Quest 8 for that very reason

It really depends on the game...if the game itself is actually fun, I don't mind a certain amount of level grinding (within reason).

But if it's a mediocre game or a game where only the boss fights are fun, then:camby:.



So I don't mind the concept of level grinding, it's more that it's often used as a very cheap way to make the game longer.
