Khanstant posted:When did the first Minecraft merch happen? I played MC when it was first just a browser based dealio and for a bit after it became a standalone client, like when lighting a tree on fire meant the whole world might burn forever and not sure how much of the current basics of today's version were in yet. Then was busy with school and poo poo for years, didn't mess with it or hear much, and suddenly little kids have minecraft toys and stuff, noticed they had legos and all this other stuff, full blown publicly known normal franchise now. i liked dwarf fortress before a) a ui b) z levels c) audio

Eric the Mauve posted:I need a Fangamer Dwarf Fortress guide An updated version of that one by Peter Tyson from back in the day would be great. Still have it on hand to leaf through for its explanations of certain Z-level concepts like the 'floors' between levels and pumping liquids that refuse to actually take root in my brain on occasions when I pick the game back up.

This is a cotton fabric t-shirt. The fabric is dyed black. On the front of the item is printed an image containing text, a dwarf, and several demons. The text reads Dwarf Fortress. The dwarf is surrounded by skeletons. The dwarf is screaming. The demons are screaming. The skeletons menace with spikes of bone.

Is fangamer worth it? I bought one thing from them in 2012, a toque/beanie and it fell apart after two wears.

Anno posted:It was in the blog post they put up on Steam (and I assume elsewhere) the day of the release date announcement. Google still has the $20 price point prominently displayed as the first result, which is what they said would be the price a couple years ago. Not a huge increase but it caught me by surprise and will probably surprise others too.

It's worse than you think, I saw them using WASD on one of the tutorial vids (It'll be fine, I'm sure, but who knows what key you pick for designating now)

Dwarf fortress releasing in a week on steam feels weird, like it should be one of those projects that's in limbo forever with no release date in sight with small teases along the way like a dev blog about implementing dog saliva or nose hair color which is separate from head hair color.

I'm actually pretty excited for a new version of Adventure mode. Feels like something I'd enjoy, but my dumb rear end can't make heads or tails of the navigation in the version that exists today. Combining 3D space with text just confuses the heck out of me in roguelikes

I'm torn on whether I want to buy it honestly. I could never really stick with the game and I dunno how much of that is the interface and how much is just that it isn't really a game as much as a simulator you can play with. I could never get the military to work so I ended up spending a lot of time just walled up, digging out places for the sake of it. I dunno, I feel like it would be hard to go back to dwarf fortress having played a lot of rimworld and gotten very attached to the far more refined game aspect.

I likely will. I like watching kruggsmash's videos. I have played DF a fair bit, as I said I just never really got away with it. I would like to utilize the 3d space to build big grand fortifications but I could never actually see a mechanical reason to do so and I was never able to get the military to fight anything properly, it was all extremely opaque. And as far as I can tell there is very limited opportunity for actually commanding them, they mostly do their own thing in a fairly disorganized fashion. That and the myriad bizzare threats that do not seem at all concerned about balance like were creatures and forgotten beasts just made games feel very difficult to enjoy, as I have no idea how dangerous anything is or whether I should expect to be able to fight it (other than almost invariably "no" because the military always died to everything I tried to send them to fight)

You get what you get and it’s what you make of it - half through effort and half through changing your expectations as you go. I think. Idek anymore, dwarf fortress is an enigma I can’t escape.

I wonder what the onboarding process is like for new devs. Do they turn them loose in the code base then lock them in a padded room until they recover their sanity after staring into an eldritch abyss?

I think Tarn waits until one is seized by a strange mood, then locks them in a room with a laptop and git branch. If they fail to complete their task, they simply throw themselves out the window. If they succeed, Tarn devours them and grows in skill and lifeforce.

Quick question, is there a way to make or acquire a large number of loincloths for Dwarves? I've got a booming fashion industry now and my lil goobers are fully decked out in masterwork clothes but they've all got tattered undies because I don't see a way to make loincloths anywhere. edit : I didn't know artifacts could be asymmetrical!
