I LOVE grinding so I really can't empathize with your situation here. Not much of a Final Fantasy guy (I only played like two of their games [but starting the third/sixth soon]) but I grind in pretty much every game that allows it. Final Fantasy Tactics I grinded quite a bit, Xenosaga I grind quite a bit, Disgaea games I obviously grind on (Disgaea 4 has a level cap of 9999 after all [Disgaea 4 is awesome]), grinded quite a bit on Super Mario RPG and hell, I even grind on Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 (I also grind on the actual DBZ RPG for the SNES). So yeah, my point is grinding is really fun for me.
