Do you think he's wrong about the grind? I would even wager he is not going far enough with that statement.

I enjoy "the grind" but that's because I play at a much slower place than most around here. I don't enjoy playing for the sake of unlocking something, I prefer getting rewarded with something because I've completed the task.

Our household is divided regarding this issue. Rellekh is against the feeling like she's getting behind because it makes her feel like she can't play when she wants to. I've kind of hit the place where I play enough that it is fun, but I never really get burned out and I don't feel like I'm falling behind. Destiny also got a lot more friendly towards the end in terms of opening up different routes to level up. It was incredibly rare for me to catch myself doing something I didn't want to do.

I can see why people would feel like it's a grind, but it never felt that way to me.
