I'd have to agree. This game very much reminds me of a cross between Command and Conquer ('90s version) and Transport Tycoon, and the complexity is along those lines. Those are the reasons why I was drawn to it :). Very big fan of TT/TTD/TTDPatch/OpenTTD :D . I don't think it'll become as popular a...

I think with games like Factorio, where things get complex easily and you cant really just derp around, its far less likely that trolls will stick around because the people who troll dont have the attention span and lose interest in a complex game very quickly.

For last 5ish days or so, Ive had the Factorio website as a pinned tab in my browser, and i refresh the tab a...
