I'm glad you're finding content to your taste, but I kind of have the opposite problem: I find RPGs exhaustingly tedious and convoluted, and every genre is infected with its worst parts - grinding and levels and crafting and loot and fetchquests and equipment - because it's the "in" thing to do. everything feels so damn confused about what kind of game it's trying to be and ends up doing nothing well.
Boulders Gare 3 doesn't really even have a concept of grinding. There are no procedurally generated encounters and each battle can only happen once.
You could say doing all the side quests and exploring the side areas is a type of grinding but it's really just "content" IMO.
after watching a BG3 gameplay video, I'd rather grind. it looks horrible to play.
I think you are depressed :/
thanks doctor i'll take that into consideration
