Doing some research for my current side project, what game has some good crafting?

@YetAnotherGame The Atelier series (~25 games over about as many years, long predating the Minecraft era) are JRPGs with a heavy focus on gathering materials and crafting equipment and consumable use combat items (bombs, potions, etc). The exact mechanics vary game to game but are always complex and puzzle-y and allow for tons of customization in applying stat boosts and special effects.

@squipo Thanks, I'll have a look, that's the kind of mechanism I was looking for!
