Reasons:
- Mobs should be incorporated into the world through new game mechanics, like for example how Smallbirds hatch from Tallbirds or Glommer travels for the flower. These details give life to world. Crafting animals into existence just ruins the immersion for me, and its just cheap and lacks creativity.
- There's no challenge to it. Recipes are incredibly simple and once you get them you don't even have to feed them. Extra-Adorable Lavae and Smallbirds are engaging because they are difficult to obtain.
- Also the idea that this is the only way we can get skins is ridiculous. But anyway, NEW MECHANICS > SKINS. Skins are nice and all, but they don't make the game.
I really feel like this game is loosing sight on what's important.
