Dwarf Fortress

Dwarf Fortress

I'm feeling the game very easy
ok, you can go live with a necromancer or go down to you know where, but in general the sieges and the beasts are laughable. i want more fun :s

i paid old version a few hours, around 2000 to rimworld an 50 to the steam version

I never thought I would say this, but it frustrates me that it seems so easy for me xd


To those of you who have been playing for many hours, does the same thing happen to you?

The game is as difficult as you want it to be. If you think it's too easy, dig deeper, dig faster, and raid on the world map.

Have you ever considered maybe you are just better at the game now?

Yeah, if you hermit up, Dwarf Fortress is, and has been, pretty easy. Unless you setup your game to be difficult or take some chances, you won't have quite the fun.

you can mess with the settings to increase the difficulty or use my mod.

It is easy, it was never a hard game; as much as the cringe vets like to bleat about it being "complex" or "hard".

You build smart, and read the wiki, move at a semi moderate pace, and you got it beat.

@ShugoTheRipper

To be fair that's why the community coined the term "!FUN!" .
Not dying is easy and boring, doing something entertaining and dangerous get's you killed in amusing ways.

Also most of the difficulty came from the obtuse controls which are not really a problem anymore.

I see Dwarf Fortress as a sandbox game: you make it as easy or hard as you want.

things can be easy if you just 'go with the flow'

try setting a goal. one the game does 'not' want you to succeed with.

take a look as some youtubers to get some inspiration.

I think I might do a playthrough where I give one dwarf everything,
and another nothing they want...
cant wait to see the second dwarf vomit on the sun XD

I started a vulcano forttress run, more easy than regular fortress xd.

vulcano is the best place to build a fortress

Is true. Not only will the lava make a good defense but it lets you run a highly efficient metalworking industry.

RimWorld and likewise games are Very easy if you chose an easy location and meta strats.

If the game is too easy then your not really challenging yourself or trying anything new.

I feel that rimworld is considerably more difficult than DF, I have like 2k hours played or more and there are situations that get complicated.

With the dwarfs I haven't even been 100 and I already feel like I'm immortal
