What is your favorite planet, and why?

[sweet lemonade]

Gleba because it made my brain hurt and the music is great.

Fulgora for now since it has that reverse engineering mechanic with recyclers which are essential to make a lot of good items and solve a lot of troubles, I like the atmosphere and music there as well. Cannot wait to unlock universal land coverage to connect those islands properly and organize there something big.

Actually gleba,
I really disliked it in the beginning but once k got the hang of a lot of things do I really start to enjoy it.
Only thing I dislike about gleba is that my base keeps having alerts because I don’t want to build a wall and a randomly placed turret is not enough

Purely from what you gain from it, Vulcanus. Miners and smelting are the foundation of all production, and Vulcanus makes your resources functionally infinite. Plus molten metals are infinitely better than plates on the bus.

[Maltsi]

Aquilo, because it makes the best looking factories.

The space platform has become my new favourite place to challenge myself. At the moment I am attempting to build a full ship without supplies being sent from a planet and only starting with the 10 platforms that it starts with, 10 solar panels, 1 crusher, 1 smelter, 1 assembler, 1 tentacle nightmare, and a few inserters. Now I have thousands of platform placed and when I get home from work plan on starting to set up production of things I need like belts. Stone and planet specific resources will have to be imported though if I need them.

Nauvis, because I don't have any other planets

[god bless you]

Gleba.
No need to find new mines. small factory can produce massive and infinite resource.
Can produce high quality items automatically.
Recycling everything which is not epic/legendary without any concern.

Nauvis, because i can't stand any of the plants I've been to yet.

Vulcanus rules. It's got the best music, best mechanics (in every respect), best aesthetics. I love just looking at everything, hanging out, running around being chased by worms and collecting rocks with my personal robots. Clearing a zone feels like a real accomplishment, even if the worm combat itself is not so tough. I'm currently on Vulcanus throwing thousands of iron sticks into lava every second just to produce enough stone as a byproduct to make purple science there, because I'd rather make purple science there and ship it back to Nauvis than make purple science on Nauvis. I had fun designing that exact build, and working out the number of inserters I'd need to toss stuff into lava.

Vulcanus has awesome rewards and these immediately make everything better everywhere. Fulgora's rewards are actually better. The EM plant is the best single item in the entire game. Fulgora science is best science. But Vulcanus' big mining drill is a game changer. Literally changes the game, and getting them up to epic quality ASAP is the best thing you can possibly do for your in-game time management. The foundry also makes you reconsider how to do everything. The foundry makes you build calcite platforms in orbit of your planets. If you haven't yet, do it, even a basic non-advanced crusher platform will instantly make you better at the game, and combined with the big mining drills and a modest amount of productivity and you will basically never need to move your mining ever again.

Gleba, because you dont need anything, you just can scale up, not limited by aquilo stuff (like foundations), ofc you want to use the buildings you get from the other planets too :)

[Lordly Cinder]

Which planet is best to restart at? A new Nauvi? Somewhere you can produce all the normal science packs and make it your base? Also if I do that and come back to Nauvi will it be overrun? I could just land in huge biter bases and die lol?
