I tried it to see what it was like and didn’t like it, but it’s hard to deny the quality that it’s there. I liked the exploration better than the factory stuff. I know that it is called satisfactory and not satisexploring.
I liked the factory stuff until it got too complicated for me lol
I’ve built and destroyed and rebuilt everything like 5 times after unlocking new things and it just got too overwhelming the last time I felt like I had to destroy my stuff.
If you ever give it another shot, I’d highly recommend going vertical with your factories. You can do each step of a production chain in a different floor to keep your factories smaller. As the machines in the game are very large, verticality helps a lot with the space management. Another tip to make it less complicated would be to use the satisfactory tools website. There you can specify production per minute for an item and it lists you the whole production chain.
Ya I did go vertical in my last attempt, but I could only fit 24 smelters on the first floor and then got to tier 5 and unlocked more stuff which put me over the edge of needing more I needed to build a second factory or a new floor on top with more smelters and it just got super complicated for me, needing to send ore to two different spots and organizing the ingots going everywhere I needed. I also have a thing about organization, symmetry, and logic and I just could not find a “satisfactory” way to build it knowing once I unlocked a new tier, without knowing what I would need ahead of time, everything I built would probably need to be redone at some point again

Ever played No Man’s Sky?
No, I really dislike random generated stuff. I like stuff like subnautica, and this has similar vibes.
