Not sure how relatable this is but when I first started playing and I was a complete noob cooking awful spaghetti, I was ADDICTED to factorio. I pulled all nighters multiple times a week to play while doing college classes. At one point i was doing close to 80 hours a week on top of classes. Now that I am much better at the game, I feel like I get caught in 'analysis paralysis' much more and it leads to me only playing a couple hours a week. For instance, I'm doing a K2SO run and the task of making a real (non bot-based) fulgora base basically haulted all of my progress for like 2 IRL weeks.

Anyone else experience this and have gotten over it?
