OK - call me childish, but Factorio is a one-off payment of £35. There's no danger of spending more money than that, so the only thing you'll be wasting is your own time playing it. It's an over-reaction to characterise it as posing some kind of life-threatening danger.

Play a lot of Factorio and yep - you've wasted a bunch of your time (ask me how I know :-) ).
