Dwarf Fortress- Adventure Mode Announcement Trailer
Eventually I’ll get around to trying Dwarf Fortress, right now it’s just a little intimidating lol
The best time to start dwarf fortress was 6 years ago.
The second best time is in a few weeks, I dunno, Im just kinda busy this weekend but Ill probably have free time after the holidays, surely.
I bought the game when it was released but actually haven’t really played it yet. I just wanted to support this type of game because the gaming world needs more games that provide extremely high replay value and are complex at the same time.
The steam version is actually pretty approachable. You can mostly learn all of the systems on your own time. You don’t have to interact with everything at first.
Exciting. Been playing DF for many years but never tried adventure mode because I didn't want to learn another Byzantine set of controls.
it's really fun to go explore a ruin of a fort you put a bit of effort into!
DF Adventure Mode is by far the single best Rogue-like game I have ever played in my entire life. Highly recommended.
A close second would be CataclysmDDA.
I played CDDA for a while about 5 years ago. I really enjoyed it for a while, but after a certain point it seemed like the devs just got more interested in simulating fiddly minutiae to micromanage in excruciating detail over actually developing interesting new content or fixing existing broken systems.
NPCs were an absolute mess around that time, but the devs were messing around with implementing individual vitamin and mineral meters and making installing bionics more fiddly.
Is it Linux only? What an interesting change of pace, if so
Edit: DDA, I mean
Here's the link to download on Android & Windows.
You can get it on Windows, runs just fine.
At least, I didn't have to jump through any hoops to get it running on my machine, outside of deciding which tileset I wanted to go with.
As a dwarf fortress lover, I was never interested in either of those because you can't "win". For me the entire point of the hardship of a rogue like is to overcome the difficulty and reach the goal. I don't want an endless roguelike sandbox, I want a challenge with a carrot at the specifically defined end.
You love to see it.
Can't wait. Fortress now has been a blast so far. Such a good game.
A new version of a game where it's still frowned upon by most players to use even the simplest graphics in place of a mess of ascii?
I smell a future game of the year!
You're behind on your info on this one
