Personally I've never found grinding itself to be fun and chill past maybe the first hour if there's novelty in it.

What's fun and chill? Doing the grinding with friends as you chat, joke with each other, come up with crazy little competitions as you grind, etc.

If everything you want dropped in your lap first try (not to mention the same happening for everyone else), what would keep the game interesting in the long run? What would generate suspense and excitement to keep you engaged, give you memories and stories to share with others?

The game does have the point systems in place for things we need for character progression. There's nothing wrong with using RNG for the things we only want.

If the grinding isn't fun, bring friends with you the next time. Or ask yourself if the item is really worth the braincells you think you're losing.
