My two cents.
The only thing I personally hate about chemistry is the secret chems system. I get the history, I THINK- the formulas used to be a bit more intuitive, but because of the code leak they had to be shuffled and unfortunately (to me) now they're a bit more random.
To me it feels like it's just gated against newer players, though. For a long time I was afraid to even ask, "in character" (like, co-scientists in round, I mean) for advice because I wasn't sure if I'd be violating a rule. I don't really have any good ideas HOW to change this, I don't even know if it SHOULD be changed, but it's super frustrating to me. *shrug* I don't want to have to spend a dozen rounds dumping random stuff into an artbeaker just on the off chance I get something interesting.
Maybe I'm just bad at the mindset for chemistry, I've considered that possibility.
