On the way back from Japan, ask me anything part 2

What do you think makes a good buildcrafting system?

nodding nodding

Once the player knows whats needed for an upcoming situation, and their pants are full of the crafting materials needed to make it, a crafting system is just busywork that pads out the game's runtime - especially if they can only be made one at a time. Like just have the drops be the item already??

My solution to this is to have the player never know what the fuck they're doing - it's easily circumvented by looking stuff up online but that's part of why I think the whole system is flawed
