Comment on What is the next "grown up game" now that Minecraft only goes for children?

I do enjoy games like factorio, satisfactory, now jagged alliance 3, dyson sphere program, witcher (1+3, 2 not so much).
The thing that I liked about minecraft was that it was so tough to get into and the mechanics we‘re pretty obscure. if you didnt spoil it for yourself by looking it up you could really watch your brain working.
I made a server where players really needed to think to get going but most new players gave up frustrated because it was too hard.
And thats ultimately what bothers me. Minecraft in its infancy was cool for me for totally different reasons than for others (especially now) and I‘m probably just fed up with being the oddball all the time.
That make sense?

Yes, it does.
It sounds like the discovery of the mechanics was more rewarding for you as making progress and winning.
Don't be. It is the oddballs of the world that actually the agents of change.
Having read this I would suggest you have a look at Kerbal space program. On the surface it is a fairly simple game but the mechanics of actual space flight are very complex.
A good XKCD about Kerbal.

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually own that game. It’s a lot of fun, i agree.
