I usually have similar stress playing management games but honestly, of all of them factorio really lets you do it at your own pace, especially if you torn off biter expansion. I’d often just say something like “ok this afternoon I’m redesigning the oil refineries because they are a mess” while everything else is just standing by waiting for me. Ticking these things off one by one is kind of the main attraction of games like these tbh
I must have a thousand hours in this game by now; just try it without the biters. I don’t bother them anymore, either. It’s literally just stress, they add nothing else.
Yeah, I’ve had fun too, but on playthrough 4+ they don’t add anything. It’s just stress. I’m good enough at this game to not worry much about it, but it’s still a net negative. If they are very susceptible to this kind of stress, I’m saying they can just turn them off. They don’t add anything to the core gameplay except time stress and that’s good for some and bad for others. One of the major strengths of Factorio is how expansive the vanilla options are.
I really wanted to like this game, but having to manage all the things gave me anxiety.

Well sometimes the stress is part of the fun, some of my playthroughs I remember best, is the deathworld playthroughs

Same. Every time I’ve tried I just can’t get past the tutorial. Maybe if I take the other person’s advice and turn off enemies at first…
