  • Factorio. The game automatically adjusts difficulty based on your speed and familiarity. Pros scaling rapidly are going to have a harder time with biters than a noob learning the ropes on the exact same difficulty settings. Difficulty settings can be scaled up for a true challenge. Mods are supported damn near as much as first party devs. It’s a very well optimized game. It’s just technically impressive, psychologically fun, and fundamentally well balanced.




  • I think you could argue downloading movies from the internet is the only true mistake, but again internet speeds weren’t great then, Redbox was doing well, and even YouTube was still young. The iPhone complaints are about first gen, and wii was great , but imo was a bit over hyped.

    For a “calm your asses down 2008 will not be known as the Golden year of computing” the takes are all reasonable.
