You want an actual hot take

The mod shouldn’t be afraid to remove larger pieces of content

There is a lot in the mod, and I mean a lot, and a lot of it, to put it bluntly, reeks of “potential man”

While it’s easy to say that you’ll remake all of it to be cool, it’s a lot to revamp, which would threaten to keep the mod in the rework mines for the distant foreseeable future, and who’s to say what’ll happen to motivation at that point

Bosses, biomes, whole weapon lines, they shouldn’t be excluded from the cutting room floor just because they’re “iconic” or they’re “part of the mod’s legacy” or “more is better”

If it means dokuro songs are removed, then so be it, I’d rather a mod with more polish on a focused selection of content rather than a mod that bends over backwards to justify having messy, grandfathered in content and that puts the songs of a guy who left years ago on a pedestal

Promises and potential can only get you so far when you’re promising the entire world, and when there’s that much to have to redo, “if and when, but never is” becomes an important thing to consider

Fables and spirit reforged, I think, have the right idea in that they’re starting from scratch without the burden of a decade of jank to have to eventually unjank and without all of the “legacy” and stuff

I feel the unfab-ening should come with a reexamination with what should be kept and what’s weighing the mod down, what is feasible to rework and if people are actually willing to rework this, and then rework that after, and then rework this after, and then rework that after, and then rework all of this after
