I had to turn on peaceful mode from the console because it felt exhausting and not fun anymore. Didn't finish just yet, I'm trying to build my first moveable spaceship

Edit: I for some reason had the impression it can be done in a week or two, but months seems reasonable to me haha (especially if you've got to work irl)

I just managed to win my first game on Saturday! That said I was very hyped about the expansion and even took a week off work when it released. In my mind it was an all week play and complete. I was so wrong. This Saturday I sat down, built the last spaceship and finished. 330 hours or something from start to finish.

I love the game but the spaceships was just not fun to build. Every time it is the same thing over and over again a s it really burned me out to the extent that I needed months to just build the last one I needed. Everything else (not the first 10 hours of gleba) was great. Next project is going to be the mod where everything is on Nauvis unless I find some other mod to play around with.

Do you dislike using blueprints that much?
I think it's fine to use external blueprints for builds that you don't enjoy.

No, I use blueprints. Mostly my own but I wanted to complete this without any help. That said I did use a couple of external blueprints but only spaceships. It is the design phase I like the most in the game which is strange that the spaceships is so boring :(
