Unsure about a second play through (sh.itjust.works)

A few months ago, I finished Satisfactory, including all the achievements. I really enjoyed the game, and though it felt really good to finally complete it and see everything I had built, I also was sad I would no longer be in the world.

I’m thinking of doing a new run, but I’m daunted by having to get all the collectibles again. In the first run, it was nice to explore the world and take a break from building things, but I’ve really seen the world now, so that’s less appealing.

Curious if there are others who feel similar. I’m wondering if I should just start a new game with all recipes unlocked and give myself all the spheres and sloops up front.

What have others done for a second run?

There are two easy ways to tweak the game without needing mods. You can kind custom craft a pseudo new game+ that way.

  • Game settings/advanced game settings - can allow you to start with tech unlocked, hostiles set to passive, and a variety of other settings
  • SCIM can let you easily edit your save game, including, but not limited to unlocking recipes, unlocked research etc.

I've been debating tweaking some settings for my second go (when 1.1 drops) myself. I think giving myself Manual Depot Uploader from the start of the game will really make the play though more fun without really altering the need to go exploring. I've been waffling on setting all the critters to retaliate only. I think I want to redo all of the crash sites to explore the new breakdown mechanic, but that's just me. I do want to see if there are new achievements with 1.1 before i tweak an advanced setting, but I guess I could spin up an old save for that if I cared enough.

Your game, make it play how you want to make it play.
