I've played a number of modpacks for Minecraft and some are way too primitive (anything involving primitive tech or whatever it is), and at some point you really do have to stop manually mining (which GTNH has well, eventually reaching void miners, where the real problem is power not minerals).

Factorio is more of a throughput optimizer as it really doesn't have that much in the way of tech, and nothing really becomes outdated beyond a few early game items.
