I guess I'm the only person that just can't get into the gameplay loop of building things to make things that allow you to build more things to make things...etc.

I've tried. I guess it's just not for me.

If the concept is appealing to you it could also mean that Factorio itself doesn't suit you. For example I find the concept appealing and I did put a fair bit of time into Factorio, but in the end it just didn't click. But I loved playing through Satisfactory and I'm currently playing through Techtonica which I'm also enjoying. Maybe one day I'll learn to love Factorio but in the mean time there are other factory builders that I'm enjoying.

Dyson sphere program is another one I play when I'm not quite feeling Factorio.

I play for the alien carnage. My factory grows so more xenos may die. If it didn't have the aliens, I would probably get bored, too. Right around the time you need the 3rd tier research packs, it gets slow as shit with nothing else going on.

And that’s perfectly fine, life would be dull if we all liked and disliked the same things.
