I'm pretty sure getting Materials is one of the Main Benefits of the Grimoire Dungeon.

They are a fun time sink and convenient way to finish some quests without ever leaving town. Pretty much the only efficient way to farm for scores as well.

There is a Sigil that drops or you can find it as a Search Point called Level Up 5. It levels up the Monster Level in your dungeon, so for me when I used two it went from 30 to 40.

Sh*t man, you actually love grinding? Hunting down crafting materials are one of my most hated features in any game.

The crafting system in THIS game is fun. They have certain items that make force abilities function differently.

I don't love grinding, I love the rewards for my effort in grinding like when someone gets a new skill or I leveled up a tuning and that unlocked more tunings with different functions.

......What's so different about the crafting system in this game compared in other games? All you do is get materials from defeating monsters over and over again or from search points, which are purely based on RNG.

What's so fun about that when it's literally like any other crafting system? I can understand if it's like in any Atelier games (especially the older ones where there's always a short cutscene every time you craft a new item) but I really don't see the...... "fun"..... factor you're talking about.

In Monster Hunter, you kill the same monsters over and over to get materials to craft new weapons or armor or skills. and it's fun doing that. No difference between doing it in that game than doing it in this one besides flashier attacks and other things in this game compared to Monster Hunter. A better story too

If you can't see the fun in that then this and Monster Hunter really isn't' for you.

I very rarely plays grinding games. So, I don't mind to grind in this game. It is quite fun too because I can try out and play as different characters during the grinding process.

MH is superior in regards of grinding materials since the challenge lies on beating big*ss monsters for the materials. What does this game offer in terms of grinding? Go through the exact same dungeons over and over again, HOPING you get the thing you wanted. That's not fun, that's tedious.

But hey, you do you. Don't let me stop you from doing what you enjoy doing.

Again, you doing the same thing in Monster Hunter, going thru the same areas over and over again hoping to get the materials you need to craft what you want.

Monsters can be cheesed so bad that there really isn't a challenge in Monster Hunter games.

I don't see how doing the same thing as another game offers any kind of superiority over the other. If doing the same thing is fun on one game, it'll be fun on the other game. If it's boring on one game that does the same thing, then it'll be boring on the other game.

It seems to me like you're just looking for an excuse to not like the game and have some kind of buyer's remorse thing going on.

Definitely buyers remorse. I bought this game because it's "technically" another entry of the "Shining" series. It's not. It's watered down for newer generations to play. Not saying the previous games were masterpieces but the generation gap between this game and the others are way too wide for me. No, I still don't enjoy grinding for crafting materials.

........This logic is flawed, considering the various factors involved. I'm guessing our generation gap is also too wide.
