LMAO I bought Factorio a few years ago, fully intending to play it, after multiple people said “it is right up your alley”
Your comment, and the replies are to it, have made me very happy I never got around to it. I probably would have loved/hated it. For like 5 years of my life.
That’s pretty funny to me. I read the start of a King novel when I was probably too young for it (pretty sure it was It?), and just got bored with it. Never tried reading another for years. A decade or two later I tried the Dark Tower series and ended up binge-reading the first 5 books.
I really love those books, although I absolutely see their flaws and understand why people wouldn’t like them.
Either way, I definitely don’t think you need to be a Stephen King fan to enjoy them. I mean, I’m certainly not and I certainly did. Still haven’t read any of his other works…
