As the game progressed, the grind throughout the Illusion Realm was visibly intensifying.
At first, the only materials were wood, stone, paldium, and iron ore.
Every ten levels brought new materials and new equipment.
For a better gaming experience, players had to gather huge quantities of new resources to craft new equipment and Pal Spheres.
The whole game grew grindier and grindier.
A single grinding session could last an entire day.
In any other game, the players would have long since raised a chorus of complaints.
But Palworld was different. The harder the players ground, the happier they became.
Lu Ze had not understood it before, either. Now that he had a god's-eye view, he understood.
Because no matter how hard the players ground, the Pals at their bases ground even harder.
The capitalists only had to move their fingers and assign tasks. The Pals on the front lines of production had far more to worry about.
Exploiting Pals was one of the game's pleasures. Watching the Pals work with furrowed brows and tearful whimpers, the players found peace with even the most exhausting grind.
Sure enough, people never got tired when they were doing bad things.
It was just like when Lu Ze created an Illusion Realm. Building a world through intensive use of his Spiritual Sense could easily take ten days or half a month, but the thought of the players howling to heaven and earth, along with those lovely gains in demonic value, made much of his exhaustion vanish at once.
Most importantly, cultivators were still cultivators. Once their cultivation rose high enough, they could go without sleep or rest.
They could readily grind hard through one sleepless night after another.
Of course, that only applied to high-level cultivators.
