Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

I played it about six months ago and sometimes get the craving too. Does Satisfactory scratch that itch or is it too different? (Haven’t played it but was thinking of picking it up next time it’s on sale – or the itch gets itchy enough…)

It did in good part for me but full disclosure I’ve only played a few hours on a free weekend but still intend to pick it up. I’d say it definitely will but there’s something to be said for the transition from top down to first person. There’s a specific feeling to setting up an entire block in factorio to be a nuclear power plant and block clearing artillery trains that I’m not sure exist in satisfactory. That said I largely haven’t picked up satisfactory yet because I strongly suspect it will consume a month of my life at least when I do.
