I was pondering how to make software engineering feel more fun.

Not every gamer is opposed to grinding or side quests. It really depends on the game. I used to hate games that had crafting mechanics but in Neptunia I don't mind crafting items being primary to winning and improving weapons. In most games I am so glad to get a drop, but in Diablo 3 I dread it because it means I'm going to have to clean out my inventory again soon.
