Don't think i ever finished any, i usually get overwhelmed in the endgame i guess. What I have tried so far:
Lately we’ve been playing Satisfactory. I also have something like 1000 hours on Factorio. The first time I played Factorio I must have played it for two days straight.
haha cracktorio
There's a reason I have not played it yet. Not sure I can commit the right amount of (all of my) time to it.
Don't sweat it... 1 hour blocks are working as well. Sure it takes ages to make progress but on the plus side you probably won't dream of factorio if you keep the dosage low
Captain of Industry is pretty cool, shame performance takes a significant hit during late game
I literally just started a new game of Satisfactory. It's been awhile so I was excited to see some of the new content.
Also Dyson Sphere Program is very similar automation wise. What a great game!
Ayyy, same here w/ Satisfactory; I just decided to hop in after watching WAY too many factory videos on youtube. Only at tier 2, but I'm really hoping that I can somehow get a multi-entry storage container. I just want my production line to be a bit less horrifying.
I'm planning to finally get There Is No Spoon in Factorio, since I promised myself I wouldn't buy another game until I completed all achievements, haha.
I got Mindustry in an offer recently but it doesn't click for me, might give it another chance.
Many people here praise it, but I can't play Satisfactory since I get dizzy playing first person games 😭 I watched a Stream once and got sick in a minute.
About games I want to buy I have my eyes on they are Timberborn, Against the Storm and the Pharaoh remake. Damn, I loved Pharaoh.
I got my hands on a free version of Timberborn (cough) and I didn't enjoy it too much. The options you have are very limited and it felt like an old game.
Ooh, that's too bad. Then I'll keep enjoying KoS' let's poay series :)
I have ~250 hours in Satisfactory. It definitely lives up to its name.
Workers and resources: soviet republic. Not exactly factory builder, as you have to deal with population, but huge emphasize on industry and production chains. The most complex and hardest city builder i've ever played
Previously, Factorio, Dyson Sphere, and at the moment Satisfactory, but I can feel my interest wane in that a bit atm. Kinda tempted by Timberborn, though that's not quite the same
Timberborn is still pretty rough :/ Wasn't my kind of game.
Satisfactory for me.
Did play a little Mindustry and Factory Town.
shapez.io is easily my favourite. When I Start a new game, there are only a couple hours left, until my PC reaches about 15FPS. Then I usually never touch the game in the coming weeks, but when I'm coming back again, I will enjoy a fresh New Start.
Oxygen Not Included is my current vice. So much to automate!
Oh I've played that one, it was a bunch of fun!
I really enjoy Factorio, Shapez and Mindustry
I can recommend Surviving mars . Sure it's more of a economic balance game. But it is scratching the same problem solving itch for me.
