What does the remake change from the original version? I did not play the original because people said it was very grindy. Is the grind gone or at least significantly reduced in the remake?
Yes. I addressed the grinding. Lowered the level of enemies (Final boss level will be lowered from 420 to 75)
I also added a feature that automatically sets the stat points for you depending on what you do (If you study, you gain int, if you work out, you gain strength and if you run, you gain agi). Also got rid of the relationship stat (like talking to a girl multiple times to increase your relationship with them)
I also got rid of the RNG combat system. Lowered the ranking system from having to fight 100 to only 25. Fixed some bugs then changed the story a bit.
Is it wayyy less grindy? Yezzir. Is it not grindy anymore? I can't say.
