Then Satisfactory is in the corner with a hooded cloak calling them both amateurs.

Satisfactory is just frustrating because of having to do manual work around the clunky mechanics.

[–] Minnels@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 weeks ago

I had the same feeling about it. I just got angry playing it.

Factorio is just frustrating because of having your own creations in the way all the time. adding another floor above it is much less clunky. and you can make it pretty ❤️

real talk: did you ever get to blueprints?

[–] Melonpoly@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Ah, but blueprints and drones make it easy to move said creations especially with things being top down :p

Not yet, I got frustrated by combination of little things. But the idea of nuclear is keeping interested in coming back.

i guess both games become a different beasts once blueprints come into play

its where satisfactory also takes off in the architectural department... to a point where getting into Minecraft again is harder after

if you just want to make raw factories without any decorations i assume a top down game is better

Oh yeah, the game where you end up blueprinting entire sub-bases and copy-pasting them is "amateur" compared to Satisfactory 🙄

I like Satisfactory but it’s so much more shallow than factorio, especially when mods get involved. It’s also poorly optimized (at least compared to factorio, which I don’t think any game has come close to in that regard). It’s a fun game to play once or twice, or for people who don’t have much time to sink into it, but it gets boring pretty quickly imo. Factorio on the other hand has some of it’s most popular mods take 100+ hours to complete.
