The learning curve is annoying, but it scratches the itch.

That's the toughest balance to strike:

Make me feel like I've gained a skill to become a competent pilot/trader/whatever in a complex world...

...But also in a way that feels rewarding in the context of having a real mortal life to live, because in the end it's still a videogame.

Tangent example: I hate how badly I want to try and grokk Dwarf Fortress, but I can't make more time from nowhere lol.

But thankfully Rimworld is really cool. :)

Just wish we could have an eighth day of the week nobody else was allowed to know about!
