    Okay. Which could have been incorporated into master recipes or similar.

    Meanwhile the FATEs are one-button numbers vaguely reminiscent of being an F1 monkey in EVE, but without the exploding spaceships.

    The crafting and gathering seem emotionally disconnected from the base progress. Like if we have a big bucket to fill with a specific ore, which crafters then use to make I-beams, that are then used to make a building it would have an engaging flow.

    Somehow SE has done something that must have absorbed a lot of resources that is less interesting than regular crafting and gathering.

    Yes it can be integrated into master recipes outside of cosmic, but I don’t think it’s a knock against cosmic that it tried it first

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess

    That's fair. Might have saved some time had they just done it without the whole moon-base thing though.
