I love this idea, people who have played a lot of mods might find it it annoying to tab out of the game constantly just to find out how to make a simple item or block. Not using NEI is fine as long as you have something to compensate for obscure crafting recipes.

Here's the bottom line: Either have a recipe book(s) like Tinkers Construct & Witchery, or find some way to make the recipes intuitive. Granted most of the recipes in this mod are intuitive, but others are confusing such as crossbows, throwing axes, and some of the brews. I had a hard time trying to make dwarven tonic and thats because it needed a Mithril Nugget, something I would have never guessed.

Let me tell you there's nothing more irritating than having several recipes that you can't find out in-game, so your forced to tab out (or use your smartphone) to go the wiki several times just to look up a recipe. After playing the TerrafirmaCraft mod for a while, I can easily say that I have almost 0 tolerence to stuff like that.
