    I’m returning to Baldur’s Gate 3 after a long break. I made it to the third act months ago then set it aside.

    Last month didn’t play anything but was playing Factorio before that. I was trying to build a 1k SPM mega base before the new expansion dropped but didn’t get close. Was too much of a learning curve scaling up a rail block base with my own blueprints and I tried to switch to it too early so most of my time was getting production back up with the new base build. Learned a lot though. Enough changed with the 2.0 update it’s not worth trying to continue my save.

    I’ll probably pick up the expansion and dive into it again after I finish BG3. Unless I play through BG3 again as a sorcerer which I just might do. My monk is fun but I’ve gravitated toward spellcasters in RPGs the past several years for some reason.

      You should finish Baldur’s Gate 3. It’s great. And yeah, I guess Paradox finally updated Factorio, but what about the new one?

        The Paradox published factory builder is Foundry, which is more of a satisfactory style first person joint. Wube makes Factorio I believe.

        I’m not sure which new one you mean, sorry. Factorio got a big 2.0 update but also its first expansion. I believe they’re planning on making a new game next in a different genre.
