Do you enjoy grinding in RPGs? What do you tend to grind for?
 
I enjoy grinding because it allows me to forget about the game. Doing chores in games still makes me feel accomplished, so much so that I think I might need help.

Games I used to grind in:
Pokemon HeartGold
Pokemon Sapphire
Devil Survivor Overclocked

Games I'd be willing to grind in:
Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time (to beat the final segment)
Still Pokemon (if necessary)
Pokemon TCGP (if you call mobile daily tasks grinding)
Animal Crossing: New Leaf (which I consider the whole game)

And... anything else I own that I want to sit down and enjoy like SMT5.
 
I enjoy grinding in RPGs like FF8 and Kingdom Hearts because It can be fun seeing all the different monsters I beat, and different levels while I am grinding.

It really depends on how much grinding I need to do. There’s some old games with ridiculous difficulty spikes and takes ages to grind. Those get agonizing.

No kidding. My friend and I were playing through Lost Odyssey and the sheer amount of grinding required to beat some of the bosses was ridiculous.
 
Sometimes I don't mind grinding, if I know I'm in for a long grinding session I listen to music in the background. I get lost in the music and those grinding sessions aren't much of a chore anymore lol.
 
I didn't mind grinding while growing up, I had lots of free time to do so. These days I rather not grind and just get through the game, which is why I enjoyed my save editors but that seems to be no longer a thing.
 
Definitely my least favorite part of games. Never really been a fan of it because I get bored doing it, and then that's when I start to lose interest for a while, but it's unfortunately a necessary evil. :( I try to avoid doing it during the story if possible and save it for once I've finished the game and I'm working towards maxing everything out or collecting everything I need to collect.
