Course, you also have everyone's personal definitions of fun to work with. One person's grueling slog through getting your butt kicked is another person's fun. Whereas I find restrictions and and hindrances a fun obstacle to work around, others find it an undue obstruction to the flow of the game.

Pulling things was nerfed so as to promote the alternative methods of transporting things - not a decision I agree with, but I can understand the reasoning and see how that might make things more interesting in theory. Nerfing basic stuff that makes traversing a dangerous, often airless and freezing station tolerable or even possible mostly promotes the alternative to travelling around - I.e. holing up in your own safe department and not interacting with people, which doesn't make for a very fun round.

I'm of the opinion that the Captain's suit should be better because they're the captain.
Why not roll the captains armor and the suit into one thing though?
RE: Captain's space suit now slows you down - Roomba - 04-25-2017
I like them being two separate items so you get moments like 'Oh hey cap, what're you doing out here? I just saw you walk into the armor - oh.'

There's far fewer of them on cogmap1 than cogmap2 anyhow, so I suppose people might go back to stealing the janitor's galoshes. We can only hope.
Could we get a button to toggle th magboots on/off: similar to flashlights? I can't begin to tell you how many times I've forgotten I had them equiped and jump into space expecting to float safely across a breach only to stop after one tile and have that "oh, shit" moment of recollection.
It would be a simple quality of life feature to flip a little switch and be swept away in the space winds.
I know I can just physically remove them but it would help with those situations where you're injured and need a person to drag you.
