Good Factorio overhauls? (feddit.dk)

I have been playing Factorio for some time now. I really want to get started playing one of the overhauls. But which one? I find it hard to get a good overview of the different options.

Which overhaul mods do you all play?

If you've been playing factorio vanilla for now I recommend Krastorio 2. Make sure to also install the recommended companion mods from that page. Krastorio is pretty much as easy to understand as vanilla but gives the whole game a different vibe, has some cooler end game gear and is more complex in some ways and easier in others. It's my favorite overhaul mod so far, but also the one that I've played most.

Space Exploration apparently takes like 200 hours to complete, which I find daunting. But I have started it and I think I like it, so far, but I haven't gotten to space yet ^^

If you're in for a different kind of challenge I can recommend warptorio as well, which has vanilla tech, but you end up on a different planet every 20 min - hour, and research unlocks a bigger platform etc. Make sure to always warp when the first biters come, you'll lose otherwise. Only in late game with flamethrowers it's not that dangerous. This mod is so cool and you will have so much spaghetti in the lower levels of your warp platform ^^
