i love it so much. im a wizard.

Fun game, but do not play without an uninterruptible power supply. Why? Oh, because the game writes to your savefile with literally every action and makes zero backups. The result is that if you lose power at all while playing, your entire save is gone. Completely. Right now I am pissed because my savefile just vanished in a power outage. It's just gone. No "last time you exited" backup, no autosave every 20 minutes.

Not one feature needs to be added before such a critical problem is addressed. This is base-building game with character advancement over dozens of hours! Losing all of that because I didn't MANUALLY back up my saves is the worst feeling and makes me hate a game I love.

This is a very open game that you can play for a variety of reasons. I play in singleplayer (so far) and enjoy the slow progression of building better vehicles not because you have access to better materials but because you know more about how to design them. Crashing your car makes it tempting to reload a previous save, but I've found a lot of fun in salvaging wrecks and refitting them with new knowledge.

It's good. Get it if you like modded Minecraft, space games, alt-tabbing to the wiki, and can tolerate some weird physics issues.

3/10 it's acceptable with room for growth should the developers embrace it. I wouldn't buy it again, given the option

Wait, I thought this was No Man's Sky. I love this game.

(old review was "3/10 it's acceptable with room for growth should the developers embrace it. I wouldn't buy it again, given the option")

This game is not good. It is not fun, it is very slow moving. Its features are lacking and irritating. Progression is strictly linear. Quests are nonintuitive. Only purchase this game if you can cheat your way past the first hour or two of gameplay.

I really enjoy this game. It's my first 4X RTS in space, and what a way to introduce myself to the sub-subgenre. The game actually refuses to let you micromanage your empire to keep things running swiftly: you have to delegate to keep everything moving. Researching is fun and rewarding. I've already spent hours just designing races. Ship-designing is fast and simple.

The entire game seems built around one goal: Make sure the player is neither lacking nor indundated with things to do.

This game's goal is to increase the resources:time ratio. Progress is palpable and satisfying. Factorio keeps itself customizeable enough that replaying the game remains fun, and knowledge from previous playthroughs aids in starting up again.

I like this game and I think it's pretty good. The ship customization and starbase deployment are where it really shines, but it suffers from a lack of automation. Larger maps are fantastic but turns take a long while.

It's a really good game. A few negative points:
The story is lame and cliched.
The main villain is a cartoon.
Boomers are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
