This is not a rant or bashing of DE. However, some of the new crafting mechanisms and the nerfing have left me disappointed. It seems DE caved to the vocal minority hollering about it being OP, then went on to gregtech the crafting, specifically the injectors which are reminiscent of lasers from another mod. I'm still exploring the mod, and still enjoying it despite the changes I find disagreeable, but it seems that DE has eliminated the ritual experience many of us enjoyed in favor of crafting/tech. This has basically turned DE into a pure tech mod instead fantasy/ritual/enchanting with some tech that many of us enjoyed. I'm definitely not feeling the little laser beams all over the place as well. It seems DE has left its Tolkiencraft roots entirely.
