The whole Xenosaga series is some pretty good sci-fi rpg. Just get ready for long ass cut scenes. The main appeal of these games is the futuristic scifi setting and atmosphere, which is has in spades. It's not the sort of thing you'd play if you want to have fun though. Considering /sci/ is 1000% autistic generally, that shouldn't be a problem.

I don't want to spoil the game for you but, yes, this game gets better once you stalk pixie back to her hideout. You really need that hacking tool though. Once you get the modifier thing(it allows you to re-script objects) you can do some pretty amusing things with a little bit of creativity.

The only thing I will say is this:
The main character is a disgusting cuck

Played the demo, probably won't buy the game. Most of the more complex puzzles boil down to the same thing: figuring out the timing so that the two halves don't collide.

Actually, SpaceChem and Shenzen I/O are quite similar in that regard: figuring out how to synchronise things which (deliberately) lack appropriate synchronisation primitives.

After a while, it gets rather mundane.

> The Witness
Apart from the half hour or so I spent eating lunch, I spent the whole of xmas day playing this.

It's basically distilled Myst. More puzzles, none of the going around the same area twenty times until you notice the bit you can click on.

Also, Antichamber is a pretty good first-person puzzle game (and quite cheap on Steam right now).

The optimization in factorio is pretty trivial though, isnt it? All the inputs and outputs are deterministic. What would make it really interesting is if objects output based on some kind of distribution/stochastic process

this is why I loved it so much. You get the same sense of exploration and discovery but without the retarded 90's adventure game logic and random clicking. The puzzles are pretty good but the best part is trying to learn a new symbol/puzzle type
