i would do that if i were you

i knew literally nothing about the game when i was gifted it for helping write some discord bot stuff for the goon discord network so i'm super happy with it as it is, but i think it's mostly because i never saw all the promises and frankly idk what those promises even were

does anyone have a fun, chillout game I can play while watching stupid poo poo on TV? something fun that CAN have depth, but doesn't always need to

i'm gonna play some Tetris Online Poland now to fill that niche, i've played starbound, terraria, binding of isaac in the past. but i'd love more recs :)

I enjoy civ5 greatly but I just don't devote the time to it that it deserves anymore. All my 6 hour gaming sessions go to stellaris or board games now.

Speaking of which, stellaris is good, but sometimes I can just feel my blood pressure spike when 4 events come in all at once and I'm trying to play without pausing.

There was once a game called Hammerfight, where you played as a Russian helicopter that swung hammers at other Russian helicopters and sometimes alien beasts in steampunk junkyard arenas.

The guy that made it is working on annew game it looks rad

stardew valley is a pretty fun game thats like harvest moon and has a little bit of depth to it.

also strangely, i find playing MGSV is a fun game to chillout and zone out to at least just doing the open world side ops stuff.

its just the UI that's very hostile and you need to run through the tutorial and watch a youtube video of someone playing it before it clicks that the game game is true sandbox

Noticed one of my dwarves got a legendary name a while back after a megabeast attack, but hadn't actually looked at him until he was thrown in jail recently.



"Fakod Minedance,The Mechanical Iron of Burying", pretty great title considering it randomly generates them.

So is that as easy to learn as rimworld? Last time I tried that game it was ascii and I literally had no idea what I was looking at.

FutonForensic

it's still ascii unless you use a graphic set, like the ones that come with lazy newb pack. doesn't make the game any more intuitive

depending on the graphic pack it does at least help some people make more sense of what is going on... in the raw ascii (which I use to play exclusively back before I remember graphic sets being around) everything's got an abstract symbol and can be confusing sometimes remembering the difference between some of them, things look nicer. navigating the menus is still something you have to learn, but honestly with a little practice you can navigate them faster than with rimworld, using shift + arrow keys and such for designation and slowly memorizing the steps to press like b -> w -> c for a carpenter's workshop, b -> w -> u for a kitchen, b -> h for a container, b -> f for a cabinet... all the buildables are under b, designating tiles for actions is under d, and most of the other keyboard keys do something (r shows you reports; text line-by-line breakdowns of things like combat etc that the game doesn't normally bother with spamming you with, so you can watch in full gory detail as a dwarf snaps a goblin's neck after establishing a firm grip on its front teeth or w/e, or like when a forgotten beast runs up to your squad of 40 and drops dead, you can figure out that the first dwarf in the line slapped it in the skull with a *steel war hammer*, rupturing the brain! etc. The combat is really something else in this game.

highly recommend the lazy newb pack if you want to give it a shot, makes it as easy as it can. go for phoebus or ironhand graphic sets in the options.

Up to six captured giant cave spiders now... has to be something fun to do with those guys, they're absolutely brutal on civilian dwarves.
