Your friend is right. The world needs to know about Chinese "dark factories" where workers are forced to assemble products 24 hrs a day without breaks.

Spoilers: "dark" because they're so automated you could run them with the lights off.

You see, the joke here is in HOI4 you literally sell your factories for trade goods.

In Factorio you also have to defend yourself against a horde of NPCs who are very mad at you for building a factory.

Well you crash land on a planet and use up their resources to build factories only to fuck off back home
