I really should stop playing Satisfactory, but well the factories aren't gonna build themselves now are they? Please send help.

Sounds like fun. πŸ™‚> Satisfactory

What help do you need? Remember, follow the veins to the altar and chant

That was evil lol.

Joking aside, for the past week and a half I've been playing between 8 and 18 hours a day ever day. I knew this game would be both bad and brilliant for my maths loving ADHD brain. Any ways, am awake, therefore must open game.

As I also have ADHD, and am also an Engineering student, I am get that. I'd be playing more but one, end of sem is here, and Ive been on my bimonthly Terraria binge.

Harmonize with us. Listen to the rhythm. Live Laugh Consume.

End of the semester is the perfect time to play! Those assignments can wait, you'll definitely be able to smash them out the night before the deadline! You got this <3

Terraria is fun, I prefer Starbound though. Also "Planet Crafter" is incredibly fun if you want something more casual, that game holds a special place in our hearts (we played co-op).

Have you dabbled in Factorio?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Once.

I opened Factorio in the morning and then the following morning when my partner got up we agreed that I should never open that game again. At least with Satisfactory I've managed to rope my partner in to playing too :D

I looked at it but didn’t purchase it.

It scares me just looking at it, hearing your stories of Satisfactory doesn’t fill me with much hope.

Factorio is far more intense with it being 2D and having regular attacks whilst managing your monstrosity.

Satisfactory is far more chill and 3D so you can enjoy just exploring, I found a power slug cavern recently and we're playing spoiler free and learning as we go.

Planet Crafter is pure chill but the same vibes. That game did more for my mental health than my psychologist haha.

They're all really fun and addictive games, and if you can do co-op with someone they're even better. I'm happy to buy you one of those if you throw me your steam ID so you can at least give one of them a go :)

Oh that’s so kind of you.

My Pc’s a potato so I really play games on it anymore and certainly haven’t purchased anything to use on it for a long time.

I’m mainly a console gamer at the moment due to that.

I don’t think it’s be right to accept the offer unless I could do justice to it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No worries! Let me know if you ever change your mind, I've already added the funds to my steam wallet and I'll only spend it on loot boxes otherwise haha.

Console gaming is fun too, I actually prefer it for open world RPGs. Whatcha playing atm?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Im mainly playing Metaphor:Refantazio at the moment.

Im casually playing Wingspan at the moment through Asynchronous play and in shorter bursts a couple of rougelike stuff depending on my mood. (Balatro, Shogun Showdown).

I have a work laptop is that actually handle stuff better but I don’t think I can play multiplayer with it because the network settings are locked down pretty hard on it.
