      Mindustry would be alchohol
      (Edit 3 : if you press read more, dont be surprised that a wall of text unveils before you.
      I warned you.) .
      (Edit 1 : For people who don't know, Mindustry is mostly a 2D sandbox/tower defense hybrid where you have to colmect resources to create defenses to destroy waves of robots before they they destroy the core (kind of equivalent to the hub). once you survived all the waves, the node (technically the map where you are) is captured and starts collecting resources that you can use to start capturing another node. there is a tech tree, but it gets very grindy very fast (kinda like satisfactory) Also inbuilt mod support :yippee;
      Edit 2 : i forgot to include why mindustry is relevant, so, you have to create factories to process certain ores/resources to make them into usable resources, these factories rely on power created by other factories which (two of the least energy producing factories) require coal (CLIMATE CHANGE :YIPPEE:) and stronger defenses have to be built because the DAMN CLANKERS scale in power/numbers following the wave order.
      Also there is oil.

    Humans aren’t like rats, you don’t need to dispense food or anything in a Skinner Box to get humans to press the lever. You just need to show a progress bar and the human will automatically begin pressing the lever to make the progress bar go up.
    In fact, if you leave a human bored, they will build their own Skinner Box so they can press the lever to make a progress bar move. If you leave them there even longer, they will then build an automated robot arm to press the lever and make the bar go up automatically.

    Decorating the factory though, that is just beyond me. My current main base is a 56x22 foundation tile monstrosity with a new layer for each stage of production where everything feeds out from and back into a single system of ups and downs with a line of containers at the bottom. Getting the design to work, building everything as tightly as possible while simultaneously minimizing the spaghetti and now (in my 5th major iteration) avoiding belt clipping by weaving and stacking is hard enough. If I spent one minute to think about the exterior aesthetics in terms of walls and roofs and pillars and shapes other than flat rectangles it would break me.

      This is the deal-breaker for me.
      Game has beautiful lush forests and neat alien plants, but negative ways to use them in a build. Most methods of clearing space will happily eat anything even vaguely nearby, as will bumping things with a vehicle. There are no regrowth mechanics.
      Game has really cool terrain and awesome cliffs, but no way to align anything anywhere but the grid, and even on the grid belts and pipes require you to develop a new mental illness to just place *consistently,* let alone _cleanly._
      Game has an awesome space elevator, but uses it like twice. Instead the vast majority of the factory's output is sent into a trash compactor and vanishes.
      Of all the power systems, Coal and Oil are objectively the cleanest, and Biofuel objectively the most destructive and limited. The radioactivity and amount of nuclear waste is also heavily exaggerated. WTF kind of fossil fuel lobby mechanics are those?
      TL;DR: Everything in this game makes me depressed. I just want some trees man.

      @@ADMNtek -- But none of this is because of capitalism! Coal is peak green energy because biomass is literally the only finite resource in the game and there's no pollution mechanic. Everything always feels so clean, even if you go the plant genocide route.
      Factorio doesn't even have capitalism eroding your values, and yet the dingy pollution will reduce any forest to a scarred mire of death, unless your swarm of bots don't efficiently wipe it out first. Even then, pollution can be managed, using actually green solar, efficient nuclear, and bio-capture to keep relatively blue waters and lush forests. But mining and production always make pollution, there's little advantage to live trees, and those forests are on valuable land, so the vast majority of players will destroy trees with prejudice and build more artillery as the thick could of pollution grows. It's a whole system that makes the death of the ecosystem more meaningful because of the possibility of saving it.
      In Satisfactory the death of every plant is inevitable. Not because it makes sense, but simply because they're fragile and very hard to work with. Coal power is the best power not despite the danger to the ecosystem, but exactly because there are no downsides. Green power doesn't exists because the devs don't want power to be free (ignoring space and storage problems) yet infinite mess-free coal is trivial to set up.
      And about that capitalism. FICSIT only wants a couple thousand early- to mid-tier items to finish a freaking space elevator, yet will only give you the production rewards if you trash the late-tier products. Send some scaffolding for the space station, sure, but make sure to pump a thousand advanced quantum computer directly into the magic landfill or we won't even acknowledge you. Feels more like a make-work project. And you can't even spruce it up with alien topiaries. :/

    Great script and editing. I've been mainlining the Satisfactory heroin for years now and I always enjoy seeing other players take on the game. It's the perfect sort of "find your own fun" game. My group of friends were thoroughly impressed with the absolute shenanigans I devised after Update 8 added all the new weapons and tools which I promptly used to make various quasi-PVP events and amusement park nonsense. That is my idea of true endgame in Satisfactory.

  • @SkaiaMechanic
    @SkaiaMechanic Місяць тому +16

    Ok, Satisfactory is my favorite factory-building game, and so for validation I have seen a lot of videos talking about it. This is easily one of the best. The amount of effort put in the video itself is monumental, from the character animations to the general pacing of the script. Well done.
    And I agree, there's no reason they want you to start in the Grass Fields except by wanting you to start over once you learn the basics. Which is something they could never ever advertise. Once you have those basics and start, well, basically anywhere else on close together pure nodes, you can truly appreciate the efficiency you can now run at.

    • @douglasw0
      @douglasw0 9 днів тому

      So all 4 of the starting areas actually have some benefits and determents and honestly I don't think the game is really "intended" to have "one big factory" in the one starting area you made. Oh, it works, I've played it more than enough to know you can "big factory" your way to success without a problem, but realistically there are great places for great things on the map.
      For instance the lake in the pink area to the north and east of the "intro zone" starting zone...that is the best oil production place outside the far north seaboard which is the absolute best location period, hands down, nothing said. One area has a metric TON of copper, another a huge amount of iron. Even the intro starting area they absolutely don't want you to start in has a huge amount of resources if you expand across that area instead of just have one big base...there are many pure iron and copper nodes to abuse and my curent world is shipping iron to one area and copper to another and then merging a bunch of the resources there into another factor that's producing tier 1 - 4 goods which are being shipped out.
      My all time favorite thing I've done so far is created a global shipping base that trucks bring all produced goods into, they get auto-sorted into bins for each item (with all overflow going to a trasher) and then I can feed those bins into trains to ship any item I want out to any other place on the planet (once I built the road/train rails across the entire globe).
      Spread out your bases. Look at your resource groupings and make bases that do things in those groupings...the initial starting zone is phenominal for tier 1 - 2 materials...and eventuallyh there's enough merged resources in the area to produce most mid-tier stuff. If you notice, the north east of the map is REDICULOUS with the number of iron nodes, while the north central is oil heaven. Power comes from just along the central area of the map which is where the uranium, coal and some oil resources are, while the south map has a goodly amount of mixed resources for making the alloyed stuff. And then you notice the utterly godly area to the north along the coast just north of a pure caterium node the grouping of copper, iron and limestone all pure quality with easy access to the caterium materials across the water, coal to the east, and oil to the north...
      Create many bases, move your resources around, make use of trains and trucks and drones...you'll be happier you did.

    • @nbboxhead3866
      @nbboxhead3866 Місяць тому +1

      I'm guilty of that exact thing, and I did a lot of hand-crafting in my first save. Like, an unhealthy amount to the point where I had very few machines producing complex parts and I was handcrafting most of what I could until tier 8. Good thing my friend told me about using space when I was around tier 5 or so. (Yes, I've started a new save with healthier practices. Yes, it feels way better than handcrafting)
      About the double clicking, shift-clicking does the same thing and control-click moves as many stacks of that type of item as possible, so you can do stuff like deposit 15 stacks of cable ready to be sunk for coupons in one click. I haven't tried it on the rocket/space elevator, though.

    • @neonte13
      @neonte13 Місяць тому +1

      You used to be able to hold space to bench-craft, then click away to another window/screen, and it would keep crafting, but then they fixed it... I mean I can put heavy crap on the spacebar, but at that point, I have to start asking myself what I'm doing.
      Also, I didn't remember the double click, but I do use shift left click to do the same thing, and ctrl left click to move all stacks of that type. Also, just a right click alone splits the stack in half, but holding right click opens a slider for precise splitting.
      I opened the game to check, but I remembered everything accurately... So, I have all this muscle memory, yet I've still never made a proper factory. 🤦

    I entered Satisfactory with an already existing knowledge of these kinds of games thanks to Factorio. But the game still does feel very different in both good and bad ways. The game is much more pretty, but the belts always devolve into at least partial spaghetti if you want to be space efficient and is much slower than a game like Factorio.
    Perhaps because of my prior knowledge of the genre, I did not really have to tear any of my previous buildings down. Whenever I created a new production line, I always made a factory to produce have 1 or 2 constructors/assemblies etc to work at full efficiency at the final production and that worked fine. When I needed new ore, I found them somewhere else or used the increased ore production inherent in power slugs or better miners. This fragmented design worked pretty well, but I hit something of a roadblock around the final tier (60 hours in), simply because of how much stuff you needed. I could have probably completed it slowly, but I wound up completely making a new central base (My starting location was the jungle, which wasn't a bad place for this) where I trained all resource deposits in and refined them. After every production step, I placed containers with displays denoting (input-output)/minute. It was exhausting work, and I had to stop for months at a time multiple times, but wow, it felt great to make 10s of super advanced products every minute. (Or simply to look at the stack of hundreds of iron ore smelters which created 9600 Iron ingots per minute which was basically 75% of the output of the desert with mark III and full power cells.
    I am not really sure where I wanted to go with this, but eh, I agree, the game is addicting yo. (The new base is still only producing some end-game items and still I have spent half of my playtime on that alone.)

    • @leotheliongames

      @LeDoctorBones Місяць тому +3

      @@leotheliongames Tbf, they don't feel punishingly high, especially for the last tier. It was simply at a point where tech debt in my base caught up to me.
      My new base creates around 12.5 turbo motors per minute. If I were to use all those for thermal propulsion rockets, I'd only need less than 2 hours to finish that part. Which shows that I have greatly overbuilt my new base if it was just because I wanted to finish the last space elevator task.
      It really isn't that bad as a final challenge if you don't build your base to create more than those final ingredients.

    • @apawhite
      @apawhite Місяць тому +6

      Ah, but when you made the base to use the maximum of your mined ore at full efficiency, that was with level 1 (or at most 2) miners, and probably not with the benefit of alternate recipes. When you reached a new tech level, suddenly you can fuel twice as many bases with your miners, and if you just include a foundry step first thing, you can make everything out of steel parts! You know what, you should really just tear it all down and rebuild it. It'll only take, what, twenty minutes?

    In my opinion, the big addiction with these games if that the only failure condition is giving up. You are given a problem with an infinite ways to solve it and get the reward chemicals in your brain that encourage you to try the next problem.
    Then some time later when you understand more of the mechanics you are working on a problem and you realize the solution you came up with will be so much better if you go back to that old problem and solve it again but better. Now completing one game planned puzzle gives you 2 doses of reward chemicals which feels even better.
    Repeat step by step until the entire factory has been replaced and instead of rebuilding again you decide to make a whole new factory with everything properly ratioed and spaced apart. You just got a dozen doses of reward chemicals from completing 0 game assigned puzzles. You are now properly addicted and have no hope of recovery.
