The fact is that the Artemis suit has no need for the other tools that come with it (outside of the gene sampler). Instead, the suit should come with some kind of Laser Scalpel (for collecting physical plant and geological samples) & some kind of gas/soil sampling device. All 3 tools should require some kind of FUN & APPROPRIATE mini-game that will allow you to successfully collect worthwhile samples (akin to the mini-games we use for scanning systems and planets from our ships).
Also, there should be a module you can buy for your ship that lets you convert physical specimens into materials and commodities-using some kind of mini-game functionality.
Sadly, it seems that FDev were far too focused on making Odyssey into an FPS to be overly concerned with making exploration a fun activity.
