A lot of video gaming today but I honestly don't remember much of it. Got almost to the end of the monthly IS5 rewards in Arknights, which is what I wanted; level 138 specifically, because it has a material I need for skill mastery. And why craft it when it's right there for free? I've built that exploration factory in Satisfactory too, and I've reached a point where it feels like I'm at the end game now even if I'm really not. From an exploration perspective, the only thing I'm missing is radiation protection; from a progress perspective, I don't even have aluminum yet, much less the tier 9 stuff. I need to set up a bunch of factories for random components too, my main progression-related focus up until now was on completing milestones. I still don't have any oil products automated besides turbofuel and fucking empty containers, and I do really need to fix that.
