    I’ve started Dward Fortress a bunch of times but I always feel like I’m messing something up and want to restart - never managed to play long enough to lose on it.

      So I play both Rimworld and DF pretty often and I always tell people to play Rimworld first. Get used to the type of game itself and then step up to the big boy that is DF.

      Both are very much worth your time, and I figure it’s a good introduction without being overwhelmed.

        Man, I’ve been wanting to pick up Rimworld forever, but I’m pretty scrupulous about only buying games at a steep discount (making exceptions for supporting indie devs I like), and I’ve never seen it more than 20% off. I guess we’ll see who blinks first.

        I tried both and I just couldn’t get past the initial complexity wall. After the tutorials the game kind of just leaves you like”good luck, figure it out.” And I still don’t even know what I’m supposed to be doing.
