For some other people without the grind makes the game boring.

I used cheats before hearth and home and it ruined the game for me.

Now playing the game again with no cheats or mods it just feels better. Every time I get a trophy it feels more valuable and all the items you need to build with it doesn't feel like your wasting your time as much.

if you can just build whatever you want without having to collect resources theirs better games for building but I actually enjoy having to gather everything myself and having to earn all the trophies, it gives just a bit more of an achievement feel.
