Rimworld

I played it for a while and i had a lot of fun with it. It is less complicated than DF, so also less deep.
It's definitly overprices, though, and rely on mods to add what the game miss.

If there would be a way to give it a try without pay the full price, it could be worth it.

[Forungi]

The game has barely made any progress these past few years and it's definitely NOT worth the pricetag.

meh, I tried it out for a little bit, but didn't much like it. If you want a graphics-heavy DF, gnomoria is the way to go IMO.
Nothing will ever beat DF itself, though. Plenty of decent graphics packs available for that and the depth of that game is simply stupendous.

The graphics were borrowed from Prison Architect, with its creator's acceptance. Last time I heard they were supposed to be replaced "soon"

[Inotdead]

I think it's gonna be pretty neat in like 5-6 years? Assuming the development continues as is.
Not that it is bad right now, but the big chunk of fun for me personally was defined by mods, like hospitality or combat realism. The core itself felt lacking.

Then again we can have DF 2021 in 5 years and not some inferior single layer wannabe. So there is that.

if someone wants to play DF with graphics there is a graphics pack for that

[Rifmaster]

Jesus christ it costs 30$?
I pirated both it and prison architect so I didn't know

As far as I see this dwarf fortress game that I've never heard of because I'm a pleb is pretty much text based. There's a thin line between cool retro graphics and just **** graphics. And dwarf fortress seems to not even have **** graphics, it practically doesnt have graphics, it just looks like a game for these folks --> Needless to say most people who play games aren't huge nerds like Dallane.

So if you want to just grow potatoes and make a spaceship, take my hand and let's play Rimworld together.

for the plebs who can't into ascii game

I only like the ascii stuff because I grew up playing zork, nethack and such.

Also, holy ***** do not post about pirating games.

[DarkNacht]

The graphics work as a filter anyway, because if you can't put up with ascii symbols instead of graphics you are probably not going to be willing to use its archaic interface.

That's kinda harsh, saying only a 'nerd' is capable of having an actual imagination.
