I just figured out why I need fish breeding and why its very efficient when I was in the shower
Oh my God, I cant stop thinking about playing more of it
Even my fiancée bought the base game and dlc and is addicted just like me
send help

also mods for this game in the future will be insane

Unique game where progression is mostly based on your skill.
Everything is falling. Every pixel is simulated. Embrace the chaos and die a lot.

easy anti cheat ? Is this an esport competitive shooter ?
I just want my mods fixing/adding things that should be added years ago.
Snail pace of development does not help.
For example there is a mod that adds subtitles to the media player automatically.
VRChat in their infinite wisdom said go fys instead.

Literally one of the best games I have ever played.
Thank you Valve Software.

Pass the whiskey!

This is the perfect example of early access done right.
Developers are working hard to regularly add meaningful and polished content while squashing bugs and supporting mods to this day.

Personally my favourite things about Factorio:
◘ Factorio teaches you how to organise and scale up
◘ Your decisions impact environment around you
◘ Strategic map allows you to plan ahead and build using automation
◘ Multiplayer works very well in this version and its breathtaking to see what other players have created
◘ Mods! So many Total Conversion mods and gamemodes, like one where all players spawn far away from each other and have to build roads or train tracks to cooperate or declare war against themselves
◘ Extensive keyboard shortcuts allows you to speedrun the game
◘ Graphics and sprites looks incredible and unique, made in late 90'ies style (reminds me of "3D Ultra Lionel Traintown")
◘ Factorio is a very polished and actually finished at this point (unlike that one epic games store exclusive I refunded)
◘ Unique feeling of satisfaction from what you accomplished
◘ You can launch fish into space

2019:
Perfect execution of adding another dimension to 2D game without drastically changing its unique feel and mechanics.

2024 edit:
Seekers of the storm update broke everything.
For some incomprehensible reason gearbox pushed the inferior console version and replaced the perfect moddable pc one
Now multiplayer is barely playable, ui is broken, everything combat related feels worse, they even removed post processing
Did they do this on purpose ?
WHY?

This is probably the best maintained early access game in history.
Every single update video to this point was fun and exciting to watch.
We got many new mechanics and content requested by community no mater how crazy or hard it was to implement.
Please support those amazing developers. We need more polished games like this.

Tell me, Valve (2016-2017), if you can: you have destroyed so much — what is it exactly that you have created? Can you name even one thing?... I thought not.

The most relaxing programming API there is.
Far from optimized and it is Source Engine spagetti we are talking about,
but its very well documented, powerfull and incredibly fun to use!
