Dwarf Fortress

Dwarf Fortress

Adventure mode is so sick
I finally care about all the random stuff in dorf's profile pages, because I know what it's like to be that dwarf. My dwarf is unfettered after doing something exciting because I just revenged Obok Inethnakuth by slaughtering the cave crocodile that murdered him.

I get to hear all the absurd s*** dwarfs say to each other at parties... I overhear them talking to the cat

My dwarf dreams of creating a great work of art, and therefore so do I

Meanwhile I'm thinking, "I only knew it was a cave croc because I saw croc footprints on the rock floor these idiot dwarfs built in the cave system. With no floor it's just wrecked fungus and pools of Obok's blood." Lucky me. Also I discovered the dwarf combat art Kisat Dur LMAO

great to hear I can't wait to explore the world and hear legends about my fortress when adventure mode comes out of beta

I dunno to me currently adventure mode lacks content, There's really is very little content right now that you can possible do in adventure mode.

You have to select it as a beta on steam.

Most of us would not recommend buying the game just for the adventure mode.

I agree with both of you but I had already played Adventure Mode for so long for free with texture mods, it was a bunch of fun, for whatever reason it was garbage on steam version.... I refunded the game already glad I got that itch out the way. Will never play again.

Probably should wait till it has all the content of the ascii verisons.

It is lacking a lot of content, but I agree with the amount of fun it brought me.
Played adventure mode in ascii with texture pack too and was simply fascinated by beeing an individual in this massive world!

Something I wish for is more and better ways to heal. Like suturing your own wounds or buying/brewing healing potions. I know potions are in the game now and I'm looking forward to how mich more they will do!

Currently healing in steam adventurer mode is too easy
because they added an overbundance of healing potions that heal you like 3-5 times over a short period.

This post is pretty obviously a troll.

Are you talking to me?


BTW guys I got killed by a cave spider. How do I avoid this in the future?

Also how do I tell the difference between sites filled with hostile goblins and sites with non hostile goblins?

I read online that goblins are immortal so over time all forts become filled with dwarf-aligned goblins. Seems awkward.

I cant be bothered playing on that verison anymore due to liking mouse controls.
but there should be information on the sites as you enter them.
Fortresses might always be hostile
Goblins are evil always so assume they are bad.

I bought it mostly because the combat in adventure mode was so good in the old version. Wish a proper rpg could steal this system. So many are just attack! -5 hp
