If you play this you will never lose virginity

it killed it's development already.

One of the best parts about DF is the UI, the game itself is only fun for so many hours.

Thought this was a creeper world thread from the catalog.
One of the all time great flash games.

toady already added tranny dwarves, what do you think?

Ive played this and lost my virginity. Go fuck yourself

That you are obsessed but mildly correct, they should've finished legends modes and more endgame content first.

Neither

can you fuck me instead i dont want to be a virgin anymore

Quickstart guide dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Quickstart_guide
In the LazyNewbPack launcher, you'll need to use the utility, Dwarf Therapist. This tool makes changing your dwarves' jobs easy. You start by generating a world. World size Small, history Short, Mineral Occurrence Frequent. You want a somewhat flat site with trees and plants, a river, multiple shallow and deep metals, flux stone, soil, and no aquifer. Purple stuff is evil, so stay away from purple. Prepare for the journey carefully. I take 2 Miners, a Stonecutter, a Crossbowman, a Doctor, a Trade Broker/Record Keeper, go wild with your 7th, I take a 3rd Miner for speed, a Gemcutter would be good too. Make sure you have enough copper picks. Copper battle axes are used to chop trees. 1 anvil. Swap in cheaper thread, cloth, bags, ropes. Bring a quiver. Wooden items can be crafted early, so you don't need those. You'll craft wooden bolts immediately for ammo. Use those points to bring animals. I bring dogs, 1 hunting dog, cats, sheep, and turkeys. Extra seeds or booze are good too.

When you start the game, [d]esignate to chop trees, gather plants, and start digging. - and + on the num pad while designating will change priority. Holding shift will move your cursor faster. < and > moves up and down layers. [o] to "Set Order", [F]orbid, [p] to "Claim used ammunition". Your dwarves won't do anything unless they have been assigned jobs in Dwarf Therapist. In DT, hit the "Commit Changes" button or you won't change anything. DT is very customizable visually. You'll want to [b]uild [w]orkshops as soon as you've got wood. Carpenter's workshop, Butcher, Tanner, Craftsdwarf, Still, Kitchen to start. A Mason inside near stone. A raised bridge linked to a lever makes a good front door. Good luck.

>having no sense of virtue
The year 1990 was a mistake

People keep saying this. He added gay dwarves, but I've never seen any tranny dorfs.

proof?

Dorf has been dead since the economy got removed

>play
DF is not a game.

Isn't it a bit late when Rimworld largely dominates that niche?

simulate
bruh.... you are comparing a puddle vs the ocean

>niche
Dwarf Fortress is the niche. Rimworld is for the normalfag audience that never would've played it to start with.

>He added gay
Is there a grooming feature to make more gays?

Rimworld is a video game.
Dwarf Fortress is a world simulator for redditors who like to read leftist memes.

Pretty sure no. I think the only issue with the gay dorfs is that they appear too often, adding them isn't unexpected for a world simulation but they should be a rarity.

could you at least use the different OP pictures, fox shill

>adding them isn't unexpected for a world simulation
There should be no open faggots. They should all get married and have baby dwarves with females like fags did before 1950s. Then you could have cool emergent gameplay where you catch 2 dwarves engaging in sodomy and then sick the hammerdwarf on them. With a steel hammer equipped.

hopefully the steam release will make the game playable without requiring autism

If Toady can puzzle out how to optimize it and provide more robust modding tools, it could slap Tynan's unbalanced "story generator" right in the testicles. If not, it'll maintain its levels of meme cultism indefinitely.

How is RimWorld unbalanced? Are you making shit up?

Patch it!

I do agree. Wonder if you could mod in open gay activity as a crime.

Hopefully it makes you kill yourself

If you don't already know RW's dogshit balancing, you either haven't played it enough or have succumbed to blind fanaticism.

>No answer
Thanks for wasting my time.

>he wants an actual argument for a self-evident phenomenon
Why would I? It'd be like trying to describe a color to a blind person.

Looks like a bargain bin Rimworld clone, and trannies don't actually play games.

Dwarf Fortress being hard is a meme. It's fairly trivial to break the game unless you severely handicap yourself.

>>self-evident
There's that word.

You tried.

rimworld is the better game.
despite having more "content", most of the content in dwarf fortress is nothing more than just reskins of each other.

there aren't tranny dwarves in the game and you know it. Stop repeating this retarded myth

Lmao 2sneed

user it’s a free game. The developer is too much of a real guy to shill his game and that’s the first picture from the steam version.

You need to go inside and touch stone

Good, women are sluts

Rimworld is a good game but when rimworld fags go out of their way to seethe about DF it's so obvious they're just mad they got filtered by it

I hate this site so much. Rip DF threads

Dorf Fort is unironically very fair, once you get past the initial learning curve. The only times you can really get fucked by circumstances outside of your control are if you get attacked by a diamond-blob FB, get caught in husk weather early, or are attacked by a surprise necromancer ambush.

Everything else has very clear triggers, can be planned against, and will subscribe to the logic of the world when they do happen (i.e. every goblin banging at your door had to have been born and grown up, and you can drive them to extinction through self-defense).

second that

>spend years after years shitting on rimworld and praising df in rimworld threads
>swedish_fail.jpg when the same happens to you
kek, you fuckers deserve this and more
It's not fair, it's both extremely unforgiving and extremely easy at the same time because a forgotten beast made out of steel can show up at the beginning of your fort and it' literally unkillable, but it doesn't matter because you raised a 2-tile bridge made out of a couple of wood and are now forever safe from a colony-ending threat.

I've never even entered a rimworld thread but no one is getting filtered by rimworld. It's a complete normie game

What level of midwittery are you operating on where you genuinely rate a game by how many normalfags it filters?
If you're 110+ IQ you should be able to learn and play DF in a couple of days.

>Mineral scarcity ; everywhere
>Aquifer; no
>Deep minerals; abundant
>Shallow minerals; abundant
>Temperate woodland w river

"Oh man dwarf is so easy I can literally just copy-paste my playstyle every fortress"

you're the one who said DF players were doing the same bitching that rimworld players do. I'm saying it's not the same because DF players just think their game is better whereas rimworld payers are just angry that they're too retarded to interpret ascii graphics and keyboard menus

Browsing the wiki and reading the creature descriptions is much more fun than actually playing the game.

I quit dwarf fortress when they nerfed dwarves hauling mechanics and implemented minecarts and that autistic shit
Is it still a thing?

DF doesn't even have exploration. You can't take your dwarves on adventures, what a boring game.

why are rimjobbers so insecure? us DF chads don't care if you prefer your roblox version of our game. go sit in the corner and play it. quietly. the grownups are talking.

Yes, but minecarts are alright.

Anything that funnels money to Toady is good, I can imagine streamers and their zoomer sycophants will give it a try at least.

The Villains update allows you to send out squads on missions to other sites, establish outposts, gain territory, etc. It doesn't have Rimworld's base-raiding mechanics, combat is resolved mostly off-screen, but the actual overworld mechanics involved are more complex.

You can send them out on missions. Or play a dwarf in adventure mode.

rimworld is just a shitty tower defence game with some light rpg elements, it doesn't compare to DF even slightly

what a retard

>Implying I play easy mode
If I weren't already playing on an evil desert, I'd pick something harder.

An evil glacier?
