    It’s so extremely intimidating but if you put it on peaceful mode and solve one problem at a time you eventually get there. That’s the way to do it. Solve the immediate problem, figure out what new problem that caused, solve that one, do that until you win

      I gotta be honest, i have hundreds of hours in factorio and I personally just like it way better without the tower defense stuff and play on peaceful. I just think it’s more fun that way, the constant interruptions are stressful.

      I’m a huge overthinker so when I play Factorio my problem is spending too much time planning and organizing but not as much time iterating and actually building stuff. So I just don’t progress very quickly and get bored. Last time I did get to space science in Space Exploration though, maybe one day I’ll actually check out what’s going on with the other planets.

      FUNNY enough I clicked very quickly with dwarf fortress (the steam edition with gfx) like found dwarf fortress pretty chill , even though I wouldnt call it easy…even after watching a bunch of tutorials.

      EDIT : Like it took me 10h of Dwarf Fortress and I felt like YEAH I got it. Even though I still suck at it

        Factorio is the same. Except losing is less fun but also you don’t have to lose. I find factorio chill as fuck in peaceful mode, I just put on some music and plan shit out and slowly chip away at it
