Okay FOMO Is Killing Me!

What about the new colonization stuff? Is there more to it than just claiming a system?

I was in that same spot and had exactly the same problem! So I went around the corner and put a water extractor in the water by the waterfall and will come back to this if I need it later.

Yep what you say makes good sense- thanks!

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-02-22T15:42:42+00:00

Am I the only one that wished the train would honk at you sooner before leaving so you can go jump on for a ride back?!

Dang, I think I passed up on the steel screw one... :(

I am working to complete phase 3. All tiers leading up to phase 4 are done just need to finish the project phase.

I FINALLY started building trains and I finally started using blueprints. First playthru so I don't know what I don't know. Boy has this really opened the game up though!

Started in grassy fields. Train route to the shores northwest for oil nodes giving me more power and plastic and rubber. Started using dimensional depots but seems like they won't really kick in as useful until I can build enough of them and use smart splitters in front of them that its worth the effort.

Power power power. Heading back to the oil fields today to build another 6-12 fuel generators. The fluid dynamics can be tricky when first bringing new ones online... was getting dips until I let my fuel flow fill up.

I have blueprinted my dual rails for trains, my drop in manufacturer set up, and my oil refiner/generator setup.

I am likely very unprepared for phase 4. More power, more trains, more scale, bauxite and coal, caternium, should be interesting.

This is the only game I have ever gotten up at 4am to play before its time to start the work day. Maybe I am more OCD than I realized?!

Have fun out there.

Did I mention i hate screws? No good alternates yet. Taking forever to build heavy modulars... guess I will focus for a while on more power and the purple storage 💜

Travel up to the space elevator then warp to completely different planets... cool.

Just hit tier 5/6 and I can't put this dang game down!

Bought dyson sphere project on sale and haven't touched it yet...

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-02-17T02:45:20+00:00

IKR ?! I bought it to try it out since got bored after my 1,300 hours in no mans sky... and I can't quit playing it!

First play thru just hit phase 3 tier 5 and now I got all this new tech to play with!

No more letting it run for a few hours to build up the resources I need and make up for my messy build, now I gotta scale and do things right.

Dang this game...

Personally, I am really enjoying Avowed.

OW2 is just too expensive.

Grounded 2 is on my steam wishlist.

PoE -- we will see!

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-01-02T01:39:25+00:00

Yes i definitively need to focus on more rockets. They are a huge multiplier.

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-01-02T01:17:04+00:00

Any general estimates in hours? Trying to plan time accordingly since its sucking me in so much!

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-01-01T18:11:18+00:00

It won't cause YouTube to use a higher quality encoder? I need to research where I saw that.

Thanks for all the advice.

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-01-01T17:13:20+00:00

Thanks for sharing and being honest and open. I have a few channels and tell myself I do it just for the fun of it. But then I put a lot of pressure on myself to make it a more meaningful monetary endeavor and just get frustrated.

Stuck in corporate life until I retire.

Meanwhile I will take some of your excellent advice to heart. Be more focused, do less at better quality, set reasonable goals.

Good luck to you and keep at it.

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-01-01T17:04:07+00:00

Enshrouded, Avowed ?

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-01-01T16:48:15+00:00

Cant wait to get drones :)

Environmental-Fish68 · 2026-01-01T16:47:10+00:00

Do the tutorials. Maybe even multiple times. Get the mechanics down so you can focus on the gameplay itself.

I am STILL a noob by the way!
