I unfortunately think you need to do more than just to remove 6 fights.I'll take a look for sure.
I don't want to make the game easy, because at the end, with all summons and runes and spells, the game already become that. I don't want the game to become spam attack only.
What I think I'll do is to remove the fights with the mercenaries a bit. reduce from 5 to 3 per cave/hideout.
This will be a total of 6 long fights less.
The core issue is that combat right now is pretty boring but takes up a lot of gameplay time.
It took me 7.5 hours to beat (mind you i cheated in 35k after the first hour cause the grind was so bad). So it would have taken me even longer to beat the game naturally.
The 35k didnt even change that much because the upgrades barely make a difference anyways.
The only part of grinding that a player enjoys is the reward that they get at the end (buying an expensive item in this case)
But the reward as it is right now is pretty lackluster.
And the large majority of the game was spent doing the same combat encounter over and over.
Combat = unfun right now
Sexy scenes and story = very fun
If you want your game to be good the player should spend the most amount of time doing stuff that the player finds fun.
Again, it would be totally fine if a large majority of playtime in WS is spent in combat if the combat actually required thought.
But you can just do the same thing over and over. So essentially 80% of the game is just waiting until i get to the fun parts.
Just grinding by fighting the same enemy over and over is more like a job than a fun game lol.
Removing 6 mandatory fights already is an improvement but the main problem is still the huge grind you have to do.
Sorry if im being a bit blunt here but I feel like the game needs some more major changes.
In Succubus Covenant i never really had to grind. I just progressed from area to area. In the areas themselves I avoided combat and only fought against the succubi which was fun cause they are the main focus of the game.
Avoiding combat is its own little mechanic since you need to outmaneuver the enemies. Which is also fun.
