Just an example, you have to crank up the difficulty for approval all the way to max in order to have any challenge and not just spam Tier 2 upgrade, but it locks you into an incredibly specific, ugly ass build order in the first months. Things are even worse if you include hard food spoilage. You have to lock yourself into an infuriating early game to have any challenge at all later on. I hate it.
