Well, when the company is literally called "Grinding Gear Games", that might just be what you're in for.

I hope game designers will take it into account more as bots and AI progresses, giving the games more depth and making them more interesting. Games should be designed for humans, not machines. |
But not all games are purely about depth in every aspect. Games can be just as much about reward-induced dopamine releases as they can be about new information and adapting to it.
Path of Exile offers a tremendous amount of
depth in character building, whereas the late game grinding process and combat is not as decision-laden.
