dont make me spend HOURS just because you cant make it fun and or want to force me to play the game longer. i play less or dont buy the game at all if certain mechanics are in it, simply because that one thing could outweigh all the positives, NO MATTER HOW GOOD THEY MAY BE.

TLDR:
Myself and others hate when they wast our time by using ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and miserable mechanics. make them engaging so we can enjoy the game. I PLAY MORE WHEN ITS FUN, NOT BECAUSE YOU MAKE THINGS TAKE LONGER.

Holy wall of nonsense. Don't play it if you find it boring. It's a survival sandbox game, not a MMO. You make your own fun in these games.

Have you played a survival game you like? Or is this your first go at it? They all tend to hit a plateau eventually where progression slows way down.
