Loss of creativity

[Jeff]

I've always loved Satisfactory because I can start with nothing but a beautiful landscape and create an empire from what resources I discover. Of course once I create this empire and finish the game, it's no longer fun anymore so I have to start another save from scratch again. I use different mods to make the experience different for every save I create, yet other players look down at that and say vanilla is the only way to go.

Then I read that these "vanilla" players are using MegaPrints. Copying and Pasting stuff they did on a pre 1.0 save and putting it into their 1.0 world. Then going to a library and taking MegaPrints from there and adding into their save.

So much for creativity and turning nothing into an empire. Their vanilla save is completely fake, A combination of different player's work. You call mods cheating and then you do this? At least I built it myself. Who cares if the "bean" and the flying moth aren't there anymore.

They are only cheating themselves.

No one cares Jeff, it’s their game, and anyone with a half working brain doesn’t consider mods cheating.

Jeff claims to be disabled by having his brain injured in Vietnam.

But then again he claims he was a truck driver for decades. These two assertions are mutually exclusive.

heck, my train empire is mainly made with 5x5 blurprint (too lazy to do 6x6) ;)

I'm more curious about who Jeff's culprit is. Who are all these people using mega prints bragging about vanilla and insisting vanilla is the only way!?

Who are "they"? This reads like a conspiracy theory. You got a source for these claims?

oh oh, Jeff, the noose gets tighter ...

Maybe try to not invent problems to get artificially upset about, that usually works.

Troll thread of the day it seems.

Jeff I dont see why this is a problem for you or anyone else. Who cares what others say. Make your own rules and respect other people in same way they should respect your game play choices of what mods or AGS features to use.
If you got somsone who doesnt agree with you then fine...that not your problem...its not even their problem. its just proof we all have different opinions but at the same time we are free to have different opinions and rules we play the game by,

Is there a r/Satisfactory on Reddit?
This sounds like something that would be on Reddit… maybe even Facebook or Twitter/X… any of those, don’t listen to those people.

[Huren Ogeko]

There is a reddit for this game as well as everything else under the sun. and yes I though for a moment I was reading reddit today.

This is why I dont even have a reddit account because all I would be responding to is stuff like this.

[Jeff]

I don't use or like Reddit

[Doc✪Hollywood]

It's good our generation doesn't have to care about tik tok, twitter and all this garbage

OP would like to mark this as the correct answer to the thread.

jeff i shelved this game last month after stalling at completing the final stage. staying blind to what happens one day i will finish it but trying to complete Ficsmas this year I log in and find little enthusiasm to do anything. I'd imagine if I started over and messed with those mods you mentioned I'd get really bored with it in a couple days.
