That's the toughest balance to strike:
Make me feel like I've gained a skill to become a competent pilot/trader/whatever in a complex world...
...But also in a way that feels rewarding in the context of having a real mortal life to live, because in the end it's still a videogame.
Tangent example: I hate how badly I want to try and grokk Dwarf Fortress, but I can't make more time from nowhere lol.
But thankfully Rimworld is really cool. :)
Just wish we could have an eighth day of the week nobody else was allowed to know about!
Dude that's like a month of any Autodesk software! :O
And yes it's utterly ridiculous, and I just wanted to take a shot at Autodesk because screw them lol.
