I must be the only one who likes a grind sprinked into my games, Unpopular opinion but VN's are kinda boring. too much reading, kinda zone out because lets be honest 80% of the games on here are awfully uninteresting.
I'm so happy to hear someone else say that. I think that grinding brings some realism into a game. It creates the illusion that you have to work for something, and not just ride along in the VN current. It makes unlocking achievements more rewarding. There is a point where it is too much though, and it's been a challenge for me to figure out the right balance. I think I have erred on the side of too much earlier on in development, so I've tried to make some changes to fix some of that. I'm trying to be more aware of it going forward, and hopefully I can figure out that sweet spot.

in my hands and feet and it makes clicking a mouse over and over very hard. Also, after just a couple of minutes of the grinding I have numbing pain in both hands. Again, I understand that this my only affect a few people who play this game. I like the game and just wish I could play it longer without the pain.
One thing that may help you, is that in ren'py, instead of advancing scenes with the mouse, you can advance by using the "Enter" button. Even when there are menu choices in the game you can use the mouse to hover over the choice, and then push the "Enter" button to select it. To most, that probably doesn't make much of a difference, but if keeping your hand in a single position on the mouse causes pain, then having that "Enter" button at the bottom right of the keyboard, and easy to push no matter what position your hand is in, might make a difference for you.
