    I play it once a year for like 2-3 weeks playing nothing else (with maybe a few extra plays here and there).

    But I like doing it as if it’s some engineering project. Like in my current world the biggest thing right now is making a road from spawn to where I’ll put the base. But it’ s survival in an amplified world, and I’m forcing my self to make the road like it would be in real life, first I did a survey so find the route with the least need for (in order of priority) tunnels, bridges, and “blasting”/rock cutting. Then I clear cut the “right of way” then constructed the road from the tree farm and quary/mine to the first bridge location and make a nice looking bridge with a stone brick retaining wall and staircase down to the lake. Also I’m adding in retaining walls and supports where realistic. It’s kinda fun and so far has resulted in a lot more scenic and impressive looking road than the usual strategy of boring a straight line to the destination and treating bridges and tunnels like they are free.

    I should play it again…
