    I think this is the point of hard disagreement, I either make do with what villagers offer (by ignoring them entirely) or start exploiting, and neither feels satisfactory; I wouldn’t call it in-depth either, data miners and META pioneers dug all the depth out of the system.

    As for villager curing: the act of curing a villager is an intended mechanic, but what is not an intended mechanic is locking up a villager with a zombie, let the zombie eat the villager, cure the latter for a price reduction, rinse and repeat. Not required (like anything in the game, which is the point of it), but cuts some of the grind.

      Yeah i see your point honestly, and at some point there’s no debating either it does it for you or it doesn’t. I’m thinking maybe it’s not a game for you cause that’s a gameplay loop that’s generally enjoyed by players.

        Oh no I’ve spent at least 1000 hours on it, generally speaking the game is for me. I’ve just burned out and became familiar with what I consider to be its flaws.
