I've tried P4G and I just can't stand the required grind, nor the 3h bossfights, otherwise good game

Persona 4 Golden, though it may have been a result of me just pushing through the dungeon without any grind

Like most JRPGs, the Persona and mainline SMT series have a battle system that resembles a complex game of rock/paper/scissors. You're either strong, weak, or neutral against a foe depending on what Persona/Demon you have out. You generally don't have to grind for levels ever in JRPGs outside of the battles you invariably encounter on your way to objective x.

I have to object - to this day I've played a few turn based jRPGs - FF X, EBF 5, aforementioned P4G, and Trails in the Sky 1 come to my mind, maybe there was one or two more - and some bosses and areas pose a level gap too wide to ignore with just strategy and consumables

Watch a speedrun. They avoid almost all encounters and still nuke bosses in a few turns.

Then skill issue, I guess

the required grind

JRPG moment 😭

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

I can't think of a single remotely modern JRPG with required grinding. It's usually that you have the choice between learning how the game works or overleveling to brute force everything. People then do the latter and don't even realize the former was an option.
