Guess I'll have to wait until DF launches on Steam with a decent fucking interface and graphics that don't force me to pause and inspect every sprite on the field.
Rimworld has better lewd mods, or it used to until the modding scene fell apart. Dwarf Fortress has z-levels, and is thus automatically the superior game purely on that fact alone. Anyway, dorf fort is easy to learn and easy to play. You just need to get used to controlling it.

>There isn't much to do. Know how I know you've never played Rimworld? There's literally thousands of mods tbat can change the game drastically.

I just want a Dwarf Fortress themed Rimworld. I like the fantasy theme and setting, but I dislike how badly designed DF is. Rimworld games I play end with disaster or "full automation", DF games I play end with me getting mad over the game not doing what I am ordering it to do, or the UI fucking me, or it just crashing randomly.

DF will probably never release on Steam. The learning curve (read: cliff) isn't that bad. It flatlines once you get over the initial hurdle. The wiki is really good.
Honestly DF interface isn't that bad, with the exception of certain things like military management and getting complete listings of items in your fort. Once you learn it it's actually smooth to use, so it's not inherently cumbersome.

Imagine being so crippled with hate that the moment someone criticizes your favorite game, you jump to its defense to make the argument "there is PLENTY to do, you just have to MOD it and ADD IN lots of other stuff people have made!"
Fuck off, retard, I'm talking about the base game.

You do know it's literally releasing on Steam, right? Like, it has a page and everything?
Daniel Cox
There's something like that in the works. If you google "Games like Rimworld" there's some page that lists a bunch of fantasy-themed games and a few of them are about dwarves.
