I'm indecisive, so I'll let you be decisive for me.

The first option would require MUCH more time to play through several ~50 hour games and talk about them concisely, but would be broader. It might even take me two months. The second option would allow a more focused look in which I specifically compare Factorio and Satisfactory, which I could probably do in about a month.

But dosh, my 2 dimensional brain couldn't even comprehend the concept of a higher dimension

UpsideDownEye

You can’t hide from pYanodons forever dosh.

Stephen Kretz

I think if you're going to cover the topic, you should hit the whole genre. Unless you wanted to make multiple parts, then each game could be a video.

Crabulon

Satisfactory would be awesome

Unusual Danger

Satisfactory would be extremely interesting to see. With you having to explore and overcome vastly unique challenges. I will say that given how your bases aren’t bases without concrete; then SF bases aren’t factories unless they’re fully decorated.

BaneOfOrion

I have also been enjoying Oddspark. might be worth taking a look at.

Dragonspinner

From playing both Factorio and Satisfacory, I think a more in-depth comparison works better because of the different aspects of the games. Also doing multiple 50+ hour games seems quite overkill in the amount of playing/editing it would take.

Aaron Udall

Having played a lot of both, I find I prefer factorio over satisfactory, but I would absolutely love to watch you tackle satisfactory, Dosh.

Natthaporn Hongcharoen

I'm playing Py at 45 hours in. On one hand I want you to play it because I like it a lot. On the other hand I don't want the answers for the logistical challenges because solving them has been really fun. So, eventually but please not next month.

Charles Vaughn

Having played through a decent chunk of Py (on the 4th pack) I'm pretty sure there's no way to make even something like 8 hours of video. There's just too much shit

Natthaporn Hongcharoen

Although I got to train in 40 hours despite spending a lot of time just walking around on the pavements appriciating how fast the movespeed is. I think Dosh can finish it in about double the time of SE or Seablock.

Kerbwrks

yeah pys would be fun to watch, but seeing satisfactory from Dosh's POV would be interesting, as i have never really looked at it.

Yung

Satisfactory had too much of a "factorio streamlined to be accessible to modern audiences" vibe to it for me. You could kinda turn your brain off and expand without a lot of thought because belts can clip through stuff. I'm not sure if you'd get mad at it enough to make an 45-60 minute long video or get bored with it you'd have to pair it with the other games to make a 1 1/2 hour video.

Yung

(20hrs total playtime, 4 years ago)

yuriks

I think that doing several separate videos would keep more content ideas open, allow for more indepth comparisons/videos, and not require you to kill yourself playing vidya, so in that vein I'm voting for Satisfactory over a combined video. However I'd still be interested in hearing about the other ones eventually!

KalterJager

While I really want him to tackle py, I also think his normal video style would be really hard to make fit for it. But I bet a more relaxed, off the cuff video series would work.

Tehawa

Single topic, more in-depth video will be more informative than broad comparison. Though I'd love to throw Oxygen Not Included into the mix, but that might be for the future content ;)

Jake the Wolfie

Sending pulsating meat vibes to the pYanodons run

Bob Holland

I voted for the genre dive, but I wonder if it would make sense to do them separately? As in "Factorio expert plays DSP" then "Factorio expert plays COI" etc. But perhaps I'm thinking that because I gave up on Satisfactory, but really love DSP.

triple

I started replaying satisfactory after trying it in early access, and was just thinking about how it would be cool to see your opinions on games like that and dsp. I do think a stand alone video for them would do them better justice, but I personally find them to be rather boring when just “beating” the game, and it seems like other people here have the same sentiment.

Andrei Costescu

As someone who's voted for py almost every time it came up, I'm starting to think it wouldn't make such an interesting series. It would take for ever to finish and I can't imagine it'll be as entertaining as the last video or even SE. As for the next video, I would also rather see individual in-depth videos with Satisfactory and DSP.

Mattias Rutgersson

If I can pitch a suggestion, Tunic might need a video as suggested in your La mulana video 😁

James Taylor

We're breaking him down, Pyanodons is inevitable.

Heavy

considering a 50 hours playthrough is enough for Satisfactory i'm assuming not a lot of effort will go into the "make building pretty" and yes this is a challenge and I hope u do

Volkamar

I would like love to see both options, especially since a Satisfactory Standalone, will make things easier on the genre dive.

Wilhelm Screamer

I voted for a genre dive, but like the idea of doing so after covering satisfactory in a dedicated video more.

gavin kemp

I think it would be more interesting to do the automation game dive but over several videos. Although if I had to choose, I think Dyson sphere programme fits your style better.

Scorpius

I love the trolling of the Pyanodon supporters.

Jason Freidman

I'd love to what you'd build in Satisfactory and how you think about it! To me, if Factorio is a game about automation where you automate your automation, Satisfactory is a game about aesthetics --Building beautiful buildings in a beautiful world.

gavin kemp

I was thinking along those line too. I think Dyson sphere programme is more in line. You need to handle stellar and interstellar logistics and building the Dyson sphere is long.

Nicholas French

I'm a simple man, I see Pyanodons, I click. Even if he never plays it.

DerSpini

Whatever ends up in the top spot I win, and I am okay with that 😁. ... who am I kidding, Pyanodon finally needs to happen!

Dany Fabian

I really wanna see nullius before pY, just because pY may outlive us all ;P

Lishmael

Funny how it's "the eventual Pyanodons run" and not "the never happening Pyanodons run" now

Matya

Oh, he opened Pandora's box...

Crazy Ginger

I hope to see ya give fun mode a try eventually, was a bit disappointed to see it not win last vote. Eventually...

Andreu Nadal

I'd love to see a long-format Satisfactory video, and after some time a DSP video, and then a COI video, intertwined with other regular content. And all the while keeping the pyheads waiting

Noone Nowhere

I'm on the fence, I'd love to see what you can do with Py's, but Satisfactory looks like fun.

Robert oines

Py. Its waiting. There is no escape. Py will happen

A. Alkydere

Ah, darn, missed this but I would have voted for the winning option anyways. As much as I love COI (Nearly 2K hours and growing, member of the discord, involved in nearly all of the canary (beta) tests, etc. etc.) and would probably rewatch your run of it five times...it really would not suit itself to being an also ran in a bunch of other games. Honestly COI is a slow game, slow enough you can probably run it in the background while editing something else. And both Satisfactory and DSP deserve their own full videos themselves. That project sounds like something that suffered from scope creep before the sentence was finished. All of those games deserve their own full spotlight in between whatever beautiful indy insanity you find. That said, I do look forward to seeing your reaction to COI's "actually kind of smart...ish" signal-free train system when you do get to it.

Kones

Begging you to run Py instead of Satisfactory

Mike Litoris

Poll broken, no Lavablock available xD

Willcheat

I'm 2 months late with this reply, but I learned about lavablock because of you, and I thank you for it.

Octaeon

please play DSP, it's my second favourite automation game after Factorio. Pls do a video focused on it like you did with Satisfactory
