Hahaha, how bad does your anticheat have to be that it bans people who haven’t even played the game yet? Or maybe its so good that it bans people BEFORE they cheat. “Good news, we dropped the cheating rate to 0%! We only had to ban the entire playerbase to do it!”
I honestly didn’t like factorio, which is odd because I’m pretty much the exact target audience (autistic). I bought it after buying Mindustry, played it for about 20 hours and then put it down and didn’t pick it back up again because I realized that it just felt like work. I think the reason I didn’t like it was that you spent 5 minutes coming up with a solution to some problem, and then spend 50 minutes implementing it, which bogs down the gameplay with monotonous block-placing.
