Games with a LOT of crafting ingredients, recipes and steps.

I like having a LOT of items to hoard, a lot of crafting recipes with intermediate crafting steps, recipes in recipes in recipes.

Ideally, it's a survivalcraft kind of game where I explore, collect items, take them back to my base, have a little farm, etc. Build a big room with tons of chests to hoard all the items in.

Example: in the game Staxel, you had to use several workbenches to prepare food: a chopping board to cut up the potatoes, a pan to fry them in, etc.

Minecraft with mods is a possible answer but I'm a tad bored with Minecraft.
