gollark: Mekanism's got cool 5x processing which is at least complex to set up in some ways.
gollark: Not really.
gollark: The NuclearCraft chemical processing may be annoying, but at least I have to think about the process and not just plonk down a single block.
gollark: Moving a bit beyond that, and applying to the previous version too, the way it just provides simple oneblock solutions to everything, *and then no more complex better ones*.
gollark: - useless first tiers- microcrafting requiring random components- requires being in overworld for grains of infinity^ my main criticisms of EIO 5.
