!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I always hear about Dwarf Fortress being the spiritual progenitor of Rimworld; "It walked so Rimworld could Run" kind of thing. But honestly everything I'm reading in the comments makes it sound even MORE fucked up than Rimworld (in the best kind of way).

The simulation is more insane and deep, but the game itself isn't as fun imo

Yup. You constantly fight the UI and some of the mechanics are very unintuitive.

it's also super ugly. I couldn't bring myself to play very long it's so unpleasant to look at
