Just started playing Graveyard Keeper and it's interesting but it seems really grindy. Hopefully it starts picking up a bit as I play. I'm also wondering if I should get any of the DLC now or wait a bit. The DLC is on pretty good sale right now on Steam so that might be something good to pick up.

Currently slogging my way though the late game (or at least I was until more pressing things came up), there's some slight automation towards the mid game that helps a bit, but the grind doesn't really go away. Mostly due to the fact that you end up spending Faith/ corpses/ gold way faster than you can get them. I find myself in a waiting pattern fairly often- there's still things to do, but progress on major quests feels super slow (and almost unrewarding). The DLC is mostly regarded as filler, but if you're a completionist (or like what they offer), it's not awful at the current sale price.

Note: there are achievements that are gated behind having the DLCs if that's your thing.

It's not strictly a bad game, but I'd almost rather play Stardew for the farming/ story or Factorio for the automation.
