Satisfactory's a great game & Coffe Stain has put out quite a few big updates along the way, with lots of transparency. Kudos to the whole team!

FYI: if you like Satisfactory and/or Factorio, you may want to check out Dyson Sphere Program - it's another factory-building/automation game, but you've got a whole star cluster and hundreds of planets to build an interstellar factory.

I lov Dyson sphere program but I think that blueprints (the QoL feature which let you build full sets of factories etc are just too powerful, transforming the endgame into just running around placing mining rigs as your giga factory can basically handle however many resources you throw at it.

It might just be that were missing true endgame content, but currently it feels very unsatisfying at the end compared to the beginning of a game

I think that's a common problem for most games - at least it is for me.

The cool thing about Dyson Sphere Program is there is so much to do in it, you can create your own end game scenarios.

Also just because the blueprints are there, you don't have to use them. It does feel like cheating sometimes!

I wish DSP had multiplayer built in. I know their is a mod to add it, but it seems like such a great candidate for a multiplayer game at the core.
