Re: Soapbox: Grinding Is Poor Gameplay Design That Doesn’t Respect Your Time

I personally like grinding because it makes me feel more invested in a game's story. If I sink a ton of time and effort into my party then it helps create a sense that we've really gone on a long journey together. But if a game is really short and hardly requires any time or effort, I can't really get into the story as much because it makes me feel like the game is trying to create these high stakes without really giving me a reason to care about the outcome.
