In my lab, preparing and meeting with our PI is like getting to the (reoccurring) final boss of the game.
You grind by doing research and gathering results.
You form your party members, ie your lab advisor, the associate professor that helps you a lot, and one or two graduate students that have work related to yours.
You try to find the best and rarest equipment - your presentation slides and what pictures you can put in them.
You finally make the encounter and you get floored - losing some valuable items in the process. Like your opportunity to go to Hong Kong.
...Well, the last part hasn't happened yet. HOPE I GRINDED ENOUGH.
Of course, the one thing this has and RPGs usually don't is a time limit in which you have to present yourself to the boss by (otherwise you could grind forever right?).
...HEY, IT'S LIKE A REALLY HARD ATELIER GAME. Atelier Cube, lets go! :V

Well, be glad it's Atelier and not Dark Souls. If it was, you'd be working alone with absolutely no resources or references aside from your pen, and if you do find someone, he might kill the cafeteria cook when you're not looking.
And your prof would be a demon bat with a huge spear that shoots fire.
