    People say putting 1000s of hours in a game means you don't have a life. We have all different hobbies and interest and if you don't have kids or commitments and are able to and want to constantly play games then you are the lucky one by being able to do what you love. If spending that much time on games makes you happy then you have it made. So what if other people don't agree. Enjoy it. I had kids, so my gaming time as greatly reduced, I'd love to play games more again but I'm still happy and wouldn't change a thing. On another note I'm going to look up that shipbreaker game that was mentioned in this video. Stay safe everyone.

      @Jonathan-kraai 3 роки тому +2

      never seen a game that is in such a great state in early access already. i saw many AAA titles that were in a worse condition when released.
      what satisfactory misses in its erly access state are some late-late-lategame implementations (reached after like 100-200 game hours) and the story line. they will also tweak some production lines, implement more research and discovery options, hand-craft map-areas that are still a bit empty, work on even better performanec and graphics, dedicated multiplayer servers and things like that.

    • @bobbyc1120
      @bobbyc1120 3 роки тому +2

      It's in early access because it's still improving and the story isn't quite done, but it's mostly free of glitches and everything is already more polished and better balanced than almost any other similar game. Compared to something like Subnautica, it's already way ahead.

    i see what youre saying with the robotic arms but then the factories in satisfactory would not be as compact and while it might make storage easier it would make the machine placing tetris a whole nother level of headache
    plus with the mergers and spliters you have in the game you kinda can have several materials in a belt, becouse they ad in components to belts in a pretictable manner, youd have to plan ahead but its possible.

  • @Phillylove100
    @Phillylove100 2 роки тому +1

    I think there is one huge problem that makes satisfactory broken in a way that factorio isn't. It makes factorio a smarter more involved game because of it. Satisfactory has infinite ore deposits. Sure I could be more efficient to make everything go smoother and faster or.....I could leave the game on for hours on end and then come back to tons of materials dug out. I can thoughtlessly make every resource have some sort of funnel into a plethora of storage crates. I can't just leave the game on and get infinite of whatever I want in factorio because copper, coal, and iron deposits are limited. I don't get rewarded and have to put in less effort by disengaging with the game like I would with Satisfactory.

    • @NthReview
      @NthReview  2 роки тому

      I can understand that perspective, absolutely, but I think it's both technical and intentional. Obviously, technically it is much harder to generate more space in Satisfactory (since it is one curated 3D space) to introduce more resources in a perpetual treadmill. It's hard to chase new resources when you're out of land. Factorio can obviously do that much easier. And then, intentionally, it removes the pressure to not just build out your machine, but seek out new resources as well especially when the landscape isn't as easy and plains-like as Factorio's is. I genuinely enjoyed Rise of Nation's infinite resource pits, even if those matches were time limited anyway, because you could set up your economy and then kinda just leave it be to focus on building your military machine. Ditto Satisfactory with its focus on building the machine rather than surveying for new stuff.
      I'm not saying either one is wrong, I think they're just different ways of approaching the idea. If you're cool with letting the game collect for hours and hours, eh, I mean, whatever?

      @@NthReview The White Tiger server is basically the place where some of the more experienced ECO players gather in larger numbers and lasts a bit longer than some of the other official servers since it's a bit more difficult to reach the end goal (shooting down the meteor), which encourages people to keep playing longer since the economy needs them.

    Satisfactory also has the whole aesthetic element not really present in Factorio...more like Minecraft.
    So once you build that 100 base you can then spend another 20 hours making it look good to you, if you want to.
    So take all the hours you spent in Factorio then add the number of hours you spent in Minecraft, round up and multiply by Pi. That is about the number of hours you can easily spend in Satisfactory.
    In the UA-cam community you are pretty amateur if you have less than 1000 hours in the game. And those at 1000 hours seem like they have lots of play left to do everything they want to do.
