After playing Satisfactory I thought I'd love factorio too, but somehow never really got into it.
I played Factorio first and since my friends are "done with Factorio" (not sure what's wrong with them but I think I need new friends) I agreed to play satisfactory with them. It was fun for a couple of hours then it just started tobuild up rage inside of me because of so many strange or stupid design decisions the devs made. When we got to trains and I started building that was when I hit my rage limit and boiled over. My god those stations are huge and the unloading was the most stupid shit ever. Then all the small finicky tricks you can do to slim your builds... And this you want to learn/do since blueprints are small. Don't get me started... Never started the game again after we were done but have a couple of hundred more hours in Factorio since then :)
I had the same experience, but the other way around. I started losing interest in Satisfactory after I found out the map was static.
Honestly, the good thing about that is that everything is hand crafted. So exploring is really rewarding IMO. A good example is an area where you find tons of power slugs.
I can appreciate that. Maybe Iโll revisit my spaghetti base one day and try to finish.
Maybe try again? I played satisfactory at first and thought factorio looked stupid, but having a roboport network for the first time felt soo goooooood
My friend was the same way, largely due Factorio being in 2D. He was able to get into Satisfactory due to it's 3D nature.
Oh I don't care about the graphics at all, as long as I know what I'm looking at. I should try again.
Think they mean 2d as in your basically walking on a map whereas in satisfactory it's a 1st person world with height.
