well, people are making tutorials and guides to solve this.
those unintuitive examples you pointed out are, hard for gamers who are used to other kinds of MMOs, especially those who think they are so good at finding out how things work, when the truth is actually that many other MMOs work the same or similar way while this doesnt, and it must be reallly annoying for them to learn they cant solve it in this game. so, yeah, i feel for you. i remember how i struggled making a fire a few yrs ago.
(btw, haven players may be able to figure things out a bit more easily than others, but not too "naturally". this is much more complicated than haven is, and i know many haven players who didnt continue playing.)
you do have a point, but im not sure what kind of solutions other than some good tutorials you are looking for here.
btw, check my sig, that is one of the most unintuitive feature of this game
