Hello, Is it me you're looking for?
I can't think of developers I'd trust more than the Factorio devs.
Same, if they made a Kickstarter and only said that they made Factorio I'd give them money without even knowing what the project was.
Factorio DLC will be the first thing I ever preorder (If there will be preorders).
