Oooh addicting little diversion there. I got up to painting and decided I needed to actually do something today

EDIT: Oops I went back to it.

While some are indeed just copying mechanics and designs, it is interesting to look at what doesn't get copied in general.
If the idea is stolen by lots of people it is the best compliment for the idea imo. LoL and WoW are the best games ever in my opinion!julitj wrote: ↑Tue Jun 16, 2020 12:40 amIndeed, it brings popularity that someone begins to imitate this. But it’s sad that the idea is stolen by pieces and profit from it. Btw my top game is League of Legends, one of the most popular games out there. If it happens too difficult to pass or you lack time to upgrade the char visit https://skycoach.gg/lol-boost.

Competition, as always. If there are multiple similar games, people may sometimes choose to buy only one of them.
Looks intriguing, added to the wish list, will see how the reviews look!
Erm, yes, I think I understand the principle. That isn't the point. You're assuming that sales of allegedly similar games will hurt Factorio sales, but a game isn't practically identical to another game in the way that, say, store-brand peanut butter is the same as name-brand peanut butter.Ranakastrasz wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 6:10 pmCompetition, as always.

There are other games inspired by factorio, and such people buy a different one, and not factorio. should that game not exist, or not be known, they would have bought factorio instead, as Factorio-like games are what they wanted to buy, Factorio sells less, meaning less income for The company. This is normal and how companies, sales, competition, and so on work. More or less.
