So fucking true. And to be honest, the first game in which I grinded like a crazy motherfucker was the first Assassin's Creed. I don't remember what it was, the most expensive armor and sword...I guess...
But, wow... I sucked...I think I've spent 2-3 hours in it and kept dying only because I didn't know how to properly use the counter attack mechanic... But when I've mastered it, everything got SO FUCKING SATISFYING!
The combat in Shadow of Mordor and Witcher 3 for wasn't even about grinding. All about that satisfaction and those well made animations that make me feel like a bad ass.
Damn....I love video games... I'll day alone...
