Dorf is superior

What makes Dwarf Fortress superior?

Is it the madness?

rimworld is fun, there's just like 1% of the content compared to DF. DF has been in development so much longer.

Lot more variety in events, and having events affect dwarves can lead to some hilarious shit. Dorf isn't really that much harder than any of its clones but it has a lot more to do and what can happen.

yeah, the ui is clearly superior

I was trying to get into dorf but I just can't. I've started playing this after playing gnomoria for a wile. Rim world is pretty great. Maybe I'll give dorf another chance though.

What mods should I download for rimworld

Find a video of someone going through the ui and the quick binds. It's a ton of fun but it does have a hefty learning curve.

One of my colonists is a high level craftsman and artist. Mastercrafted weapons, clothes, and sculptures. Make at least 5k silver from selling whenever traders pass by.

I've had to restart 4 times already and I've never had more than 5 or 6 colonists. I suck

They all died horribly cause I'm kinda shit at the game. I'm having silly amount of fun with it

Fluffy's UI mods on the workshop are great and I'd recommend everyone get them. Other than that it's personal preference.

>forget about hunter hunting
>raided by club man and charge rifle dude.
>hunter manages to kill club dude
>hunter and charge rifle dude square off.
>both shoot out each others eye
>Each get various body parts shot off
>ends in a draw with both going inot shock.
>respect
>keep charge rifle dude as prisoner.
>save hunter
>fast forward 2 years and they are married to each other

i am enjoying it so far. pacing is good, events keep things interest. I just hope they don't fuck it up with updates.

>Can never get past the fourth or fifth bandit attack
>Enough food, heat, crops, medicine, everything, but just shit at defence

Why go on?

Are there any mods that will make it easier to pick better colonist's at the start without having to spam the randomize button for 30min

The game is pretty hard. When I start thinking I'm doing good everyome dies.

you have to make a choke point with sandbag cover. Then when attacked have everyone with a gun wait at the choke point.

If I do that, they just attack a wall nowhere near the base and breach into a different room. And as soon as they start using frag grenades or incendiaries I just watch my world burn to ashes.

Make a funnel

But they don't go in the funnel, they attack exterior walls instead.

>Colonist gets stomach worms.

ree

if you layer your walls they won't attack them.

I get maybe one trader a month, too. Shit is rough.

tried it last night

hooked up a solar panel, battery, electric stove, and cooler inside proper shelter

but before it was fully online i was 2 steel short so i was 2 electric wires short of it actually functioning

and i couldn't find more steel to finish it off so i'm just screwed in the forest with no steel to build with

this game is too hard i don't like it

Thanks user, I'll give it a go.

Steel litteraly falls from the sky just wait.

relationship debuff need patching hard. I have had characters with marriage rejection despite being married to the person they were rejected by.

mine like crazy and get an electric forge up so you can get steel from slag.

I felt the same way until i got the electric forge now i am swimming in steel and need more components.

huh, that was the one place i was pretty sure it would not come from... i'll check that out

i started in the jungle and there's like nothing to mine except a big pile of gold which doesn't really help me.... is that a bad place to start?

Heavy mountains all season farm is the easiest and best to start in.

less mountain is harder

Snow and dessert are hardest.

kek

fucking normies get out of my niche genre

You can go right back to dorf fort. No one is stopping you.

It's the beginning of the end.
