I've noticed a lot of people advertising that require crafting or emphasize that their games have excellent crafting. I've tried playing some with crafting, but uh get bored with the mud before raising a char to the point of really being able to craft. It just seems to me so pointless to spend gametime doing repetitive tasks for something I could easily pick up as a hobby in real life.
But obviously a lot of people really love crafting, so why why why?
Is it just as a general grouping of non-combative professions, so that it displays the game as being more than hack and slash?
Or is it the ability to create custom items and equipment (the end result, rather than the act of crafting)?
Or is there something else to it that makes it really fun that I'm totally missing?
I'm not trying to criticize crafting or people who like it. I'm just curious about it.
