Factorio Space Age! It was Satisfactory 1.0, but I got distracted 😅

Same! I finally “beat” satisfactory by delivering all the project parts. In early access I unlocked all milestones but never delivered the final project part.

Starting space age, only got up to automating green science, working on military science now. Probably won’t be able to play much this week though.

My group is roughly about to head to space for the first time or launch our first rocket so that’s exciting

Just started Baldur’s Gate 3. Never played a CRPG before (does Disco Elysium count?) so it has been quite the learning curve for combat. Pretty stuck in the Underdark, it seems. Looks like I’ll have to help out a slavetrader Gekh in order to proceed because I don’t think I can defeat him and his buddies…

Disco Elysium absolutely counts.

I hope that you’re having so much fun with BG3, after I finished it’s definitely one of my favorites. The underdark is tough, I wish you good luck.

If you don’t want to help the slavers, here is a tip: you can destroy ladders.

I’ll add another one: get to them from the miconids village, do not engage them from the lower ground by the lake.

Once you’re done that, destroy the stairs first and push them down afterwards. You won’t believe how easy this fight gets.

Or you know, you could always lower the difficulty. No shame in doing so

I saw that it released but I haven’t checked it out yet, I’ll have to make sure I do

Completely agree. It’s utterly addictive, and the further you get, more and more fun tech gets unlocked. Been playing it with some friends, and we’re all hooked.

I’ve played a bit of Factorio and enjoyed it a little too much, but watching some video clips of Satisfactory a couple of years ago really didn’t grab me. Do you think it’s likely that either watching the game have a very poor sense of what it’s like (for someone already familiar with Factorio), or that the game has gotten a whole heap better over the last 2ish years?

Hmmmm, good question, bit of both, it has changed a lot, but there is also heavy focus on the building mechanics also if that’s your thing, rather than just straight up automation. So like you can make some very very impressive structures in the game. Saying that, you can mostly ignore the building for pretty and just go full on factory just grow mode.

I guess also depends how much you like/are comfortable with the fps view point vs top down? If you like automation and or crafting games, def worth giving it Whirl IMHO!

I always describe satisfactory as subnautica but about automating machinery like a tycoon game but with more reminiscent of portal. Needless to say its really fun!

Oh nice, I just replayed The Last Autumn since the trees are changing color, just waiting on the first snowfall to play the main game. Let me know if there’s anything especially challenging you want advice on!

Frostpunk has such weird balance. I found it to be an extremely difficult game until a few core loops clicked. Then it was suddenly completely trivial and I lost interest
