I stumbled upon Factorio only after the graphics and gameplay of Dyson Sphere Project hooked me! Both are fantastic games with similar mechanics but different challenges; DSP has modern quality of life conveniences (like cleaner/simpler use of pickers from conveyer belts), but Factorio has a ton of depth and great mods.

I don't mind the look of Factorio, personally, but being able to rotate stuff around and see different angles of the factory was very helpful for routing in DSP. Then of course you can take it to a first person view too, like Satisfactory, but then I spent too much time trying to move myself (the player) through my maze of conveyer belts.

Dyson Sphere is great for 3d. Or at least 2.5d bordering on 3d.

Satisfactory shows the pros/ cons of a full 3d world vs a 2d factorio.
