That is a long way to say that you dont like the food change O.o
From the store page
"A brutal exploration and survival game for 1-10 players, set in a procedurally-generated purgatory inspired by viking culture. Battle, build, and conquer your way to a saga worthy of Odin’s patronage!"
Game is hardly brutal and the survival part is very tame, in most survival games you need to spend ages to craft food so your avatar doesn't die, in this game food is a buff.
Players get upset as they 'farm' tonnes of food, make huge farms, massive boar operations... you dont NEED to do that to get anywhere, you can if you want but all this massive farming is not a requirement to progress.
You can just have a small farm, enough to craft some good food to buff your HP and/or Stamina, you can hunt enough to keep up.
Part of the issue is the way the food system was at launch, too simple, just use BIS and off you go... then sit in the forums and complain about lack of content :P
Other than the food system, I dont see any change that was made more complicate than previous... some mechanics added to help players, like the puke berries and the obliterator, to get rid of food so you can change up and to destroy unwanted items.
