I've been meaning to try Factorio for years. But I'm worried that as soon as I do, I'm never going to get round to playing all the other games in my backlog...

  • Usually when I pick it up it's only for about two weeks. Then I get back to my job and leave the house again.

  • One of the nice things about Factorio is that you can finish a level and put it down and come back later. That's harder to do with an RPG like Expedition 33 or Dragon Age. Not a ton of plot. It's mostly just a building sim.

    I just played it recently for the first time. Took me about 50 hours from start to rocket launch (the win condition) in the default, recommended free-play campaign + a few more hours before that to go through the tutorial stages. Haven't tried the Space Age expansion yet, so not sure what to expect there on time commitment.

  • The Devs have stated the game will not be on sale. The price is what they felt a fair price is for their game. Its in a blog post somewhere

    I did this with Rimworld. Started a few months ago, approaching 400 hours, and I was totally correct.

  • Missing out on one of the best video games ever made out of fear of the backlog is ridiculous. Play it.
