Is the game very grindy? I saw reviews saying that it is very grindy.
I have finally finished the game , clocking at 100 hours ~ how they manage to squeeze so much content into one game continue to amaze me . Quality content that is .
There are a lot of buzz around the micro-transaction where Ubisoft is trying to make their booster items more appealing . There are indeed some truth in this .
Early game , this isn't a very big deal as you still gain a large amount of experience from quests , but you will have to do some side quests for sure . Not a very big problem , for me at least . Most them are fascinating enough with some quirks and humors to keep you entertained .
After level 40++ , that's when things starting to become really grindy . The game will start to force regions below your level , stay under-leveled . This will effectively cut down EXP earning rate from these region by a portion , which means you will need to do some serious planning on where to quest .
If you are like me , someone who like to do / see everything in the game , this shouldn't be much of a concern at all . To be fair , I didn't finish any of the contract & bounties filler quests , maybe about 80% of the side quests. If you are one of those who just wanted to go through the story as fast as possible , that ain't going to happen in this game .
P/S : I am level 47 atm (50 is the max) with 2 continent remains unexplored, relatively .
