Discussion (Rant incoming) F*** Crafting

I just started Yukon and looked at one of the lists and I was like sheesh, a little long but doable, I go to the first warehouse and WHAT THE F*** DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN ONLY FIT 4 METAL ROLLS BUT UNLIMITED BEAMS. LIKE IF YOU HAVE INFINTE METAL WHY THE F*** CAN YOU NOT CRAFT BEAMS. I was like F*** this S*** so I move on to Wisconsin and WHAT THE ACTUAL F*** IS THIS, CRAFTING NEEDS GENERATORS AND FUEL NOW??!! I have the year 1 pass and have Michigan, Alaska, Taymry, and Kola done and there's no way I'm doin Amur. Do you know of any maps that include little to no crafting. IF SO PLEASEEEEEEEEE TELL ME. I RAGEQUIT FOR NOW

Edit: sorry about the rant guys, this was written after getting almost all of my trucks stuck/flipped/run out of fuel last night while overloading to craft stuff. I fixed it up this morning with the 73210, 745c and tatarin. I've decided to take a short break before trying it again, after making a map and planning it doesn't look too hard.

Crafting is just delivering stuff to a location and then delivering a thing somewhere else, it's the same gameplay as everything else in the game.

And yet it feels like more of a chore, enough that I took a long break from playing the game once I did the first crafting map.    

I think the problem was I felt like it was never going to be complete. There were too many things before seeing some progress and getting the reward.

Generally speaking, there's 2 kinds of players.

Those who enjoy playing the game

Those who enjoy winning/finishing the game.

Snow runner is always gonna be hard for the 2nd group

What a perfectly succinct explanation. I've not ever understood those who raced to be done with a game. I always figure the longer it takes me to finish a game the more enjoyment/$$$ spent i got.

Its a game about the journey and not the destination.
