Are there any other Dwarf Fortress players here? Surely there must be at least one other person here besides me who plays it.

I dabble in it every now and then, but I'm terrible at management :P


As soon as I get my fortress to a reasonable size, it all falls apart. Whether by vampire or food shortage, its always bittersweet

Most people think artists are weird.

For me the tough part has always been getting my military up and running. Thankfully I finally figured it out. The interface for it can be really onerous for a beginner. I did get lucky though in that I am in an area where goblins can't reach me, so maybe that is part of it.

I play it with a friend on adventure mode occasionally. Its probably the most hilariously difficult game I've played since darksouls 2.
To heal, your scars
 I will give you everything I can
 (whoa)
 This war, of hearts
 We will rise again and take a stand
 (whoa)

 I can lead you to salvation
 Yet I am just a man

 I'm a loaded gun,
 An only son,
 But I'm nobody's hero
 I've come undone
 I'm on the run
 Yeah, I'm nobody's hero

Saw the fallout 4 trailer a few days ago... SO ****ING EXCITED!!

I got back in yesterday after a bit of a hiatus. Trying to catch up with a fortress that was already running is always a daunting prospect.

yeah it's great! i forgot how adventure mode was and decided to play it again!

when you toss a decapitated lion's head at a heavily armored elf and the head tears though him and kills a gopher behind him you definitely have found a good game. XD
