I agree with OP.

I liked the realism that crafting brought by using materials that are true to making a real item. The same was with the repair system, I liked that you had to use a real item to repair and not generic dark matter. They could have made a repair bag or something that all repair mats would have gone in and only took one slot.

Stop removing the things that make this game unique, fun, and complex.

Please think of ways to fix the systems without making them bland, thankyou
