All the time. Killing biters isn't really my thing. I just like building factories.

This.

I play how I feel. The games works for me on many levels. Sometimes I like to focus on the build and not worry about the biters, other times, I wanna demonstrate my superiority over pixelated creatures (occasionally failing).
Oh so that's how blueprints work! OMG!

My first game I was so annoyed by biters, I quit it and played on peaceful. The first mod I installed was to get alien science from regular science packs.

I never beat that game, either, because I realized I wanted biters, just not quite so aggressive ones. I played a new game with the biters turned down so I had to pay attention to them, but not spend over half the game fighting them back.

And that' basically the way I play to this day.

I never played peaceful as it would make a lot of techs pointless, but I typically play on Railworld type settings where biter expansion is disabled.

I also tend to give myself a bigger starting area and increased richness because I like to "build it right" from the start and find that it is stupid to be forced to build disposable things in order to adapt to insufficient resources.

Basically, if I want conflict or struggle I play other games, Factorio does conflict and struggle very badly... so I can't motivate myself to do them in Factorio.

My first game was peaceful and I regretted if at late game. After that I have sometimes turned biter peaceful by commands during most tedious works when I have built large area railworlds. But I want that at stable situation there is resource sink to defense too and do not want to play continuously without biters. They make also early midgame more interesting. But I do not want to travel 10 km during intensive building to fight or repair damages and then back.

I always play peaceful, not even a single biter is left inside my territory when I'm done.
