Sky Factory 4 has been out for a while, what are your thoughts?
There are a couple things that I feel were oversights. The reliance on autocrafting, then being limited on autocrafting options to some that are quite lag-inducing being one of the worst.
The unbalanced drop rates from resource trees leading to the 'acornageddon' is another that is kind of disappointing. I would like to see the drop rates of resin increased to keep pace with acorns, and the drop rates of leaves reduced by a massive amount.
Aside from specifically mechanical issues, it doesn't feel like there is a particular goal in mind. For example, in Sky Odyssey there was the Dimension X portal. It was something defined to work toward. I don't see an equivalent here, so it's like "ok, now what?"

I am interested in your opinion on Sky Factory 4 so far, because I am not sure if I like it as much as I did SF3.
After playing SF3 several times, I don't really see myself playing SF4 equally often. I wanna try a compact world start, but other than that I feel like SF4 is pretty bare bones.
SF4 has a lot going for it. The tree ressources are interesting, a lot of (for me) new mods were added that are fun to explore and it runs like a charm.
But I also feel like it is pretty empty. SF3 had lots of fun mods that I feel are missing in SF4, e.g. Decocraft. SF4 feels a bit limited and you can get to the end pretty quickly (apart from the last quest tab, which feels like busy work).
I also wish there were a few more quests to go along with the more complicated mods (e.g. Nuclearcraft). I am not complaining, it is a free mod that is a lot of fun and I hope they add even more content so we can play it for several years to come as with SF3.

It was alot of fun early game, but the pack is lacking a good midgame/endgame....
For example - We are producing millions of RF/t but there is absolutly nothing to spend it on.
