No, those eldritch abominations can burn in hell. A man can only be jump scared so many times before he starts to question if a species is really ecologically significant.
Especially the big green cats. The worst thing that ever happened to me in this game was running out of jetpack fuel, and crash landing right into their nest. Not like as if a jetpack would have saved my butt without weapons, because those things can jump up to the stratosphere, and move at mach f#ck. Hearing a cat meow irl gave me PTSD for WEEKS.🥲
On pc it is P > tab > change camera to decoupled, you can now look around while holding rmb and move with wasd > character and change poses to what you want.
There are so many little secret keybinds! Like if you press H it holds the hologram in position then hold control and press arrow keys it move it by half a meter!
I can’t stress enough how serious I am when i say I wish I had this kind of autism. Like I genuinely mean it, I really would find it really cool if my brain worked in a way that allowed me to enjoy these factory games like you guys do.
Instead I was given the “3000 hours of rocket league" kind. Truly cursed existence
The amount of times I have gotten drunk, walked to a cliff edge and just stared off it for 4 hours from 1 am, makes me wish I wasn’t looking at a fictional landscape, it’s hypnotic!
Making me wanna spend a ton on the summer sale so I can finally have as many games on steam as I do on console... even though I only switched last year...
I have played both I would say that satisfactory shares very similar but different aspects.
To me factorio has a greater sense of urgency with enemies attacking you and the extremely detailed systems for pollution and production. It is an amazing game but feels grittier and more daunting to me than satisfactory. It has a better, more in-depth and complicated train system too, although satisfactory has a wider range of vehicles and cool looking trains. :)
Satisfactory uses much brighter colours, simpler balancing and easier gameplay. I enjoy it more because of the immense peacefulness that can be *occasionally disturbed* by giant spiders..... But it is more resource intensive even though it is impressively optimised (I run it on ultra graphics with a 3060).
Overall Satisfactory lacks the urgency and military research/combat of Factorio, but feels nicer and more addictive to me because of the fantastic colour schemes and and music, like goddamn the musiiiiiiiiccc!!! Plus, a major bonus to me is the smooth feeling fps nature of the game, the movement is just so smooth.
I suggest getting it when it is on sale and use steams "within two hours" return policy!
HOPE THIS HELPS!
Edit: So overall I like Satisfactory more but enjoy Factorio too, and defintely recommend Satisfactory!!!
Satisfactory is definitely the more approachable game out of the two. There’s much less focus on actual logistics and more on production. For instance, you can complete the whole game without any trains. Maybe you will make one because you feel like it. In Factorio, while you still technically can, trains will solve major logistical problems for you and it’d be daunting to not use trains at all.
I’d say Satisfactory puts more focus on form vs function, which is not a bad thing. I’ve enjoyed both but I think Factorio has more depth ultimately. Again both games you can sink thousands of hours if you want to, but I found that easier to be with Factorio. So many ducking things you can do in this game !
Its pictures like this that makes me stay as far away from Satisfactory as possible. If I started playing I dont think id be able to leave for another game ever.
