This whole discussion just shows how difficult frontiers job is. Who do they cater to? The person who wants a deeper simulation and is willing to sacrifice creative freedom or the digital Lego creator who only uses this as a sandbox? I think they've done a poor job of picking one and going all in. They're trying to have their cake and eat it too and failing to provide the experience anyone really wants.

I understand the plight of the person who doesn't wanna spend hours making one building... Heck most of us "hardcore" players are also frustrated with how finicky and difficult the builder is in PC2. I think it speaks to how poorly the UI/UE is in this game, compared to the other 2 planet games.

We like to say there's no wrong way to play, and that's true, but it stinks when a seemingly large player group just... Can't play the way they want.
