WAY WAY over complex. The time it takes to craft anything is bonkers

The ♥♥♥♥ I go to a bench hit D and pick how many and it tells me if I am lacking anything in storage or not. How could that be any easier? This one those "I skipped tutorial and N button teaching me the basics, because I know what I am doing, but you really don't posts?" Feels like it tutorial shows how to do work orders and have a tribe member NPC craft it all for you...

It is super easy, so perhaps you are missing something.

You have a tribe. So once you assign them to crafting stations, you just hit D, select the quantity then your minions will find the materials in whatever chest you stashed them in and then craft it for you. How much simpler do you want it?

They really thought out on the crafting system. I really love it. So if crafting really isn't your style then get your tribies to do all your crafting for you. I have all mine gathering and I do most of the crafting. ^_^

You forgot the 9 before the 5 . Get it right 95% agrees you not the majority you are the minority again play the tutorial learn the basics, this isn't even a skill issue this is a simple you don't know what you are talking about issue. You get a frew pawn jsut for starting a base and even like a level 2 outcast has better skill caps then the player. Its so easy to set up your first base crafters. I got 2 doing all the work right now But as I am going I can make one pawn do all leatherworking jobs, one just do cooking and planting etc etc I mean the defualt is 3 then by 15 you got 6 cap and it goes all the way up to 20 npcs you can cantrol.

And again they do everything i just tell them make me 200 planks, then another I need 50 leather, then when I put in work order for new chest or stairs what ever they just grab the mats and make it. And again it tells me after I hit D to make a work order "You misisng hardwood handles" and I go oh my bad ok craft 20 hardood handles ok fixed..."

Like it cant' get any ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ easier minsu going SE style where I set up conveyer belts and it has abilty to tell other stations to make the mats as well as pull any first from storage lol. But this isn't a scifi so there is magic computer to do that I just craft basic mats in builk, like planks I don't bother setting up a que for less then a 100 any more. Then again it will say latter "no planks found in nearby boxes" and I go oh my bad make 100 more planks...

I think at bare minimum it should show you the exact amount of said resources you have in storage. So you can at least plan for it, like restocking.

It's comlex but it's also give feel of acomplishment when you Finnaly do the thing.

If you manage every crafting station yourself, everything takes ages, true.
but a) you aren't supposed to do everything with your MC, get some NPC's to work for you and b) if that still feels to slow to you, you are free to change your server settings in case you're playing local or look for a server that has settings that favor you more. It's not like the devs are forcing you to play with vanilla settings.

The crafting system requires a little thought for the setup but afterwards it feels, at least for me, way better than conan or ark.

Why? Though what computer is doing this for you in game? You in damn rainforest using stone and bone weapons early game and you guys are like "I shoudl have a cortona at every bench going "you have 242 planks left in reserve, this needs 10 planks you will have 232 planks after making this." Its like the ♥♥♥♥. I could see setting up a "build to X work order" in future that woudl make sense its pretty common thing but a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ammo counter at each work bench for mats I never got that one much, and people acting like its normal.

Its like in games where you toss a mag only firing 3 bullets and some how you keep the other 17 rounds in the mag, that teleport back into your other mags even you clearly just threw it on the ground. But I got autism so that kind wierds me out unles again its SE or another scie its like oh yeah this computer in the work station and its connected via system to it, so yeah it would know what I got, and display that. But a wooden bench in rainforest for making bone wepaons shouldn't have a magic counter on it telling me how many handles I got in storage lol.

The ♥♥♥♥ its bare bones basic... Complex is that minecraft liek game forgot the name where I got hand chizel tool parts from a slab, and do the same with molds and things. needing to make planks and handles to craft isn't that complex and again they go into storage and the worker pulls them out as needed, so if you gonna have npcs do everything you lose that excuse you need to just turn sticks into a handle for your 2h steal sword in like 72 seconds lol.

Basic inventory could be done by a tribe person with a piece of charcoal. No computer needed. Stores used to keep inventory before the 1970's you know.

Game is dog water bad even the dev's are starting to change the game and admitting that playing as the stupid mask was a mistake. Game needs to just die in a fire,
