Seeing as the post is written by the person who made Space Exploration, it seems they're targeting entirely different niches here. Where Space Exploration is about challenge and increasing numbers of interdependencies, Space Age seems to be just the natural progression of vanilla Factorio, as in, just keep expanding. Having never played Space Exploration nor made it past Purple Science, I'm interested to see how this expansion will develop.
