I enjoy crafting a lot in this game too. I usually have my bags full of various items, and I always enjoy finding out what they craft into.

I did strangely enjoy the 1.0 crafting, when you had to craft a piece of armor and it required so many different parts to complete (shoulders, sleeves, etc). I thought if they kept the complexity of this system, with a faster ui and process I really would have enjoyed it. Although not sure it would please many others.
