The few korean MMOs I've played were way less grindy than the average western one. Japanese MMOs are the real grindy ones.

depends on the game some games from Asia are very grindy with p2w items.. other's are also grindy but they keep the monetization higher than others still monetization is very very strong on Asia countries when it comes to games.

I admit I am mostly going on hearsay.
I only played the Korean mmo Aion, GW2 and Rift (not actually sure about the last two. Not an expert). And they were more grindy than WoW/SWTOR/Age Of Conan/TESO.

I still enjoyed them a lot. Especially GW2 which is overall my favourite MMO ever (not especially for the mmo part, but the game itself I find amazing). But they do feel a bit different.

Rift was a pretty good MMO before it was free to play, not grindy at all until they introduced Planar Attunement which was the beggining of the end for me.

I just want a AH it be nice if you log into game and you had sold shit while being offline then could take few days off to they fix all dam bugs.

the china auction house still sucks. you can't specifically search for items, you have to search for an item type then it gives you a list of every listed item. no asking for 20% fire resist or +80 health. GGG made sure even a forced AH in their game makes you work for your gear

imho that alone makes alt tabbing worth it. Honestly I'll often have a few searches going as I'm trying to figure out what I actually want. Being on a PC I don't mind to alt tab and have robust multiple searches.

So true, had great times in a good guild in Rift when it first released.
It is shit now.
