Satisfactory is a better game, anyway.

    this is an overt and explicit part of satisfactory, the company you work for is portrayed as a heartless extraction machine.

      Satisfactory kinda fails to show this by not including any pollution or making you feel bad about murdering animals, so you have a fully-automated megafactory that's surrounded by a living paradise.

        Factorio's gameplay forms this kind of Papers, Please -style incentive system, where you are mechanically encouraged to play the role of unfeeling sociopath. It's very easy to read the game as a biting satire on industrial growth for industrial growth's sake. What's extra funny is that the dev accomplished this by accident.

        I mean, :gamer-gulag: gonna :gamer-gulag:, but I like factorio and satisfactory, though I'm too dumb to progress in the latter very far

          Dyson Sphere Program is an interesting factory game by a Chinese dev if that's your vibe. The goal is to build a Dyson swarm in order to help power and propagate a FALGSC human civilization.

            DSP is pretty good but it also permanently damaged my vision, 6/10.

            I tried to get into DSP, but the version I played had serious translation issues. Has that been fixed?

              There's a number of grammatical mistakes, but because it's not a very text-based game, it doesn't seem like a problem to me. You can usually figure out what things do easily enough and the game has a good wiki, so I can only recommend it.

            I put a couple dozen hours into that game, I really like it a lot. I should go back to it.
