       I have an overwhelming urge to buy Factorio. I've never played it, but it looks like it would be good fun. I have a good 200+ hours in Satisfactory, which some describe as a 3D alternative, although there comes a point where building becomes a little tiresome in that game. I'm led to believe that this isn't the case in Factorio, which introduces mechanisms to help create larger factories more easily, meaning you can concentrate on what makes the game so addictive.

       @jumboshrimp it's a good game, I was playing it last night. I think mastering it is beyond my reach though. I've never played satisfactory though so I can't make a comparison

       @stardot I don't think I would have the time to master it either, but it might scratch that itch to create, discover, automate for the time being.

       @jumboshrimp if you like patterns and orderliness then it is right up your street. It definitely appeals to the ND part of my personality.

       @stardot I do indeed, and I think that’s why I have issues with Satisfactory at a certain point, when it becomes almost impossible to create an orderly factory.

       @jumboshrimp It was nice knowing you. We'll never see you again. :)

       @grueproof So it lives up to its name ‘Cracktorio’?
