That must have been really early, I bought the game right at the start of 2016.... and now I just realised my 2111.8 hours equates to over an hour a day since then. In that time, I've been a single dad the entire time time and studied an entire undergraduate degree while working full time and still squeezed in that much Cracktorio

Early 2016 was the initial Steam early-access release. I bought in late 2014, pre-steam. I also have a late 2013 email referencing Factorio - a RimWorld project update giving a nod to "Other interesting games you might want to check out"! Early 2013 was the initial Indiegogo campaign. While the sprites looked much different then, many of the machines and mechanics appear to have been fundamentally in place even way back then - from robots to cars to inserters to belts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1qOCAM9Syw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1qOCAM9Syw

  I decided to check when I did. Apparently 2014-09-09. Well worth it to get my name into the game. https://i.imgur.com/RftBXWG.png https://i.imgur.com/RftBXWG.png

    Nice. Probably the most commented on name in the game, I don't remember most of them but have seen this one referenced in reddit threads etc.

      I think the "is on fire" is more commented upon. (which is the one that inspired me to choose the bees)

  One of the very few games I bought somewhere else that gave me a free steam key when it moved to steam. Still gives me warm fuzzies a half decade later. Can't say the same about satisfactory.

Wow. And I thought my 800+ hours was a lot :)
