How am I expected to put in 8 hours of efficient quality work, when I have to think all day about how badly I want to build a new factory? And then again on Tuesday, and then again on Wednesday and on Thursday until finally on Friday evening I can just dive in. I wanna start tomorrow and just keep building until sunday night. :o
That would have been so horrible that I simply took next week off from work :D

I can't! We have a company-wide certification and my employer relies on me being there. He won't approve any holiday requests for the next week 😭

Boi did some Youtubers find bugs with the game that would have been catastrophic on release. Glad those got fixed or else Vulcanus would not have had any Ores for some people, lol.

It was totally the youtubers, and not the trillion people diligently filing reports all that time :D
