    I don’t think Factorio ever goes on sale but imo it’s worth full price.

    If you like Satisfactory, there’s an extremely high chance you’ll like Factorio. The main differences are the obvious 2D top-down vs 3D 1st person and Factorio has a robust military/combat system with base defense while Satisfactory is mostly peaceful unless you’re exploring.

      Oh I don’t doubt that I’d enjoy it, I just rarely pay full price for games anymore. It gives me StarCraft vibes.

      Perhaps when I’ve tired myself of Satisfactory, I’ll pick it up, if it still hasn’t gone on sale by then.

      In the meantime though, I also have Mindustry.

      You can turn off combat in both games if you just want factory building. Shapez and Shapez2 are all solid entries in the factory game genre.
