Peninsula of Power

[Roogle]

The Peninsula of Power and Hall of Giants were intentionally added by the dev team to reward exploration. It's not a cheat, you are meant to use it.

Was that stated in an interview? I am curious as I thought the Peninsula of Power was an oversight in development. I could see the Hall of Giants being passed off as a type of training place for players that wish to make their party stronger at that point in the game.

If you were pressing a button that said "gimme EXP and gold" over and over again, yeah, cheating. Fighting a load of high level monsters before getting those rewards? Not so much!

I think the idea is that fighting high level monsters keeps you on your toes and requires interaction with the game involving some level of skill. I think fighting high level monsters for exp is much further from time=exp than endlessly blowing through low level adversaries.
