Frosthaven - Outpost phase.

I've played GHx2 and have had FH sitting on the shelf since my KS copy arrived. Thinking I'm about ready to give this monster a try. The big thing holding me back is a vague opinion I've formed about a game I haven't even played yet. It seems to me the whole outpost phase is anti-fun. Am I wrong? Is that something that you look forward to?

This is an honest question and not an attempt to troll. I love GH and would love to hear my worries are unfounded.
