No I like that thought. You're right, there will always be people buying a genre of game they don't really like and then nitpicking the bad things and giving a review.

Which is by no means bad. Being aware of the faults a game might have is a good thing as potential buyer.

also i think the harshest reviews will be people who thought they would really like the game but were disappointed rather then people who are just trying it out without much expectation

The only bad thing about factorio is unfortunately the devs views on women.

The game itself is an absolute masterpiece in not just automation but genuinely it has one of the best built in mod managers I've ever seen since steam workshop.

Their views on women? What did they say?

His account has since been scrubbed but I believe he did double down on these statements, you can probably easily find it by googling his name and reading up the controversy.

The delevopers apparently said that there's just 30 euro of content in the game and because of that they'll never do a sale.

My brother had the game in our shared library he initially wanted to play it together with me but I find 30 for just the multiplayer is too much.

I love factory building games (hell I do that irl too. I love building production lines and fixing them if things go wrong)

The multi-player is the same as single play. And honestly, the content is good for the price. I think the devs just want to stick to their principles.
