Just bought it, going in blind. Can't wait to waste hundreds of hours on this like I did in factorio!

I bought it a few years back but never got that far into it but have seen some YouTube plays of it at the time so I'm curious what's new. I spent like 400 hours in factorio before bothering to launch a rocket so need fewer games going before starting one of these types. Hopefully Captain of Industry isn't planning a full release anytime soon.

I'm 300 hours into factorio without launching a rocket. The factory must grow and I want to see full belts of every item in the game. I also bought satisfactory way back and had a lot of fun with it for like 70 hours but then just stopped. A few days ago I had just started it back up and made a new world. Now I hear the announcement about 1.0. Maybe it's worth revisiting. I like the build system in satisfactory (in particular the conveyor belts) in comparison to factorio, but early game is very grindy with the biomass generators and all.

Belt-fed Biomass Generators and automating Solid Biofuel from wood & leaves really helps with the initial power grind, I’ve been pleasantly surprised with that part of 1.0. I fed the system ~250 wood and the leaves that came with it, and not only found 25 tickets in my Awesome Sink the next morning (sinking half my Concrete production), but the power grid was still up and had ~20min of run time left!
