- Factorio as a metaphor for being a consciousness in a control system hierarchy
- (ooh this dovetails with the PCT "consciousness as the twiddler")
- this is why your character doesn't need to eat — the character isn't so much a person as a manifestation of awareness and agency
- the factory just keeps doing what it was set up to do, you don't have to DO the factory
- but then if something's not working, you'll notice, because it'll be not working
- (I bet you could make a game even more like being a consciousness in a control system hierarchy.... but it would be hard for it to be a better game)
- I wonder if more control systems could be added to factorio... like you can currently make some logic using circuits and so on..... hm
