I have some downtime between jobs and I was wondering which of these two games you would all recommend if I only had time for one?

I’ve only played satis but it’s great. Although most of my hours are spent just making aesthetics for train stations, its gameplay is also very good.

btw, satisfactory has an amazing community manager team, probably one of if not the best in the games industry. you should watch some of their videos, like the update 5 one.

Never played DSP but I’ve got a lot of hours into Satisfactory. The only issue I’ve had with it is that it’s not procedurally generated. There’s a few maps and they’re always the same every time.

However it’s a long game. Even knowing where everything is it’ll still take hundreds of hours to setup a nice starter base, never mind a giga factory producing end game items.

There is exactly one map, and that veteran players with dozens or hundreds of hours of playtime frequently think there are several ones (as when starting the game, you choose the starting area from a couple of possible ones) shows that there hardly is a reason to worry about the map being always the same - there are so many corners to explore anyway.

I recommend Satisfactory (I have 200 hrs in the game) vs Dyson Sphere (I have 10 hrs in the game).

I like the 3D gameplay, it feels more immersive to me.
