Grind is in the eye of the beholder (Destiny)

There is no 'one' answer to your questions - it depends on the game, the day, the events that led to the activity, the enjoyment experienced the last time a similar activity was attempted... in the end, the doing of the thing that first time is just a single time, regardless of whether it was done with or without help, and the enjoyment that activity brings (over the life of the game) is overwhelmingly decided by the mechanics of the activity, because that first experience is completely drowned out by the dozens, or hundreds, of runs that come AFTER that first one.

That's like, the complete opposite in my experience. I vividly remember the first time for each, and all the subsequent runs get drowned out unless they are somehow special (such as flawless raider).
