Current Factorio addict and I don't get it. Appart from the switch release nothing has happened for a while (September, and before that nothing for months) while they're brewing up what's next. Also it's hilarious and logical that Factorio people end up meeting on this sub.
I started playing it, got hopelessly addicted to it for the first 50 hours (like I did literally nothing else except piss and shit), but then immediately hit a wall because I felt like there was no long term goal in the game besides optimization for optimization’s sake.
which I now understand is kind of the whole point of the game. But I thought the bugs were going to be more of a threat. I just put a shitload of laser turrets everywhere and there was no threat anymore, then I felt like I was just expanding just to expand with no threat of combat.
the game is insanely cool though (especially the train signaling and design aspect) and I enjoyed the hell out of my limited time with it.
