Factorio unironically teaches you to adopt an abundance mindset.
The answer is never "make do with less of something".
It is always "make more of it" or "make it more efficiently".

I've heard good things DSP. Sometimes if I want something very easy mode I boot up factory town for 5 hours and throw away all my progress after I finish playing

dsp is my favorite factory game to recommend to others! satisfactory is my personal #1 but it's like a much harder drug, much more addictive but also harder to get into, id only recommend it to a fellow junkie, the game doesn't even really start until you're 100h+ deep, whereas DSP is fun from the first minute and a full game takes about 80-120h on the first play thru. lemme know if you have any questions about it, i love preaching DSP gospel! and check out Nilaus on YouTube, he'll elevate your whole flow.

when i say it starts at hour 100+ (realistically maybe 50-70h actually), i mean trains change EVERYTHING, suddenly you are building things 50x bigger and planning globally. i had a homie show me the first 2h and been solo from there, i wish i had a crew to roll with; i did one playthru 300h on 0.8 and started a new game in 1.0 that's currently about 150h (but i left it on a few times overnight which i normally don't believe in). im using 1/4 of the map and just unlocked nuclear, now my favorite phase begins - mega building architecture, skyline design, and city planning! forgive this dogshit photo, im on vacation and this is all i can find in my camera rn.

I found satisfactory fun / bearable early game with other ppl, I had a playthrough with my friend a few versions ago over the space of like 3 weeks and finally getting the tube transport was a game changer. I couldn't imagine doing it solo though
