I'm definitely missing the whole story, because getting $4.2B back from $80B in funding is terrible ROI. Where is all of this money going?

Not to mention, for a naturally aspirated IC engine, you actually make more power in cold weather due to it being more thermodynamically efficient with a colder intake. (This is the reason why an intercooler increases the power output of a tuner car.)
Take what I say with a big grain of salt because I'm just an onlooker, but from what I've heard housing is incredibly unaffordable in the desireable cities like Beijing and Shanghai, like $600000 for a 2bdrm when the median salary is $20000. It's a speculative investment whose bubble has burst but prices are still super inflated.
This was before space age but I believe you can start with a max size starting area and nerf pollution spreading so you never deal with biters and only focus on production. Also increasing the size and richness of the ore patches helps so you never need to touch trains. I've also completed two vanilla runs and got significantly through Bob's and Angel's mods before attempting this.
With this I was able to launch a rocket in 6h52m on my first try.
Here are my steps:
- Make your basic furnace stacks, the start of a bus, and starter production of infrastructure (belts, inserters, etc.)
- Get oil and build in anticipation of advanced oil processing. Put fluid lines in their own bus lanes. Set up red circuits and blue science.
- Rush bots, but not much more than personal construction bots and perhaps a few logistics bots, but not more than a few. Use them for solar power. Nuclear is not necessary.
- Beeline for the rocket. Don't research unnecessary things. Build what's enough and don't plan for megabase expandability. Hopefully this will achieve the achievement.
I also just started on Gleba. Because iron and copper are incredibly slow I'm resorting to just dropping materials from Nauvis and Vulcanus with my standardized "Sportster" spaceship. Because significant production looks pretty much impossible I'm just gonna beeline for the rocket silo and agricultural science and go to Fulgora next.
I didn't have much trouble killing the small pentapods though:
Imported a tank, 500 red ammo, and 500 defender capsules, made quick work of the enemies lol.
True for bicyclists and motorcyclists.
Pro-developer never needs to be anti-consumer. They are staunchly both right now.
When was the last time you used it?
Also use Heroic launcher to bypass the bloat.
I'm gonna have to agree. It used to be about the most slow and bloated thing in existence, but they actually fixed a lot of performance issues last time I checked. It's still slow, but in the same time period Steam on Windows decided to add a pointless splash screen increasing the load time by 4x, letting Epic take the W by a wide margin in load times, while responsiveness is a draw.
Yes, I know that Steam is more feature complete and consumer friendly which is why I still prefer to buy from Steam when possible.
You forgot: The videos often have absurd challenges that most gamers would never try, like for example trying to beat Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire with only a physical attacking Abra.
