![]() In my opinion, it's not even the main sticking point. It would improve the visual understanding of users, but that's not the whole of the problem. ![]() If Toady integrated Stonesense directly into DF and made the game playable from that view, that's a complete game right there.Įh, not really. Oh well, maybe one day Dwarf Fortress, I will feel like I get to access more than just watching the embarking dwarves go mad from the neglect of my confused or lack of instructions as to what they should do with their new found base of operations other than starve/sober up or be eaten by the local wildlife or unlife. Oh man, if you add up all the money I have spent on (It doesn't add up to much to be honest, Steam and Desura sales are awesome on my limited budget) or plan to spend on things that remind me of Dwarf Fortress, had Dwarf Fortress just been more accessible, I think I would rather have sent that Toady's way - at least from my point of view, even if something is feature incomplete and buggy as hell, if it is accessible I am willing to wait for those features and bugs to get fixed. Its more or less a game I am watching from the outside with interest because it recalled it referencing DF as inspiration and it does remind me of DF. But I have yet to purchase my copy of this early version, so I don't know if there are more towns. Having watched its videos, it does make me think of Dwarf Fortress as well. Sorry I didn't find a quote directly from the developers, I'm being lazy in that regard. The gameplay is like DF Lite (If it existed), which is not coincidental because the developers said they had Toady's masterwork in mind while working on this game." I'm just going on sources like this review I found on Desura where it mentions: Am I getting this right that there are more towns all over the game world and you can connect them like in SimCity 4 or even in a more advanced way? I should fire up the alpha again some time, last time I did SoR wasn't even really a game in my estimation it was such an early build but I am fine with that, I remember the early days of Minecraft, I am fine with something actually being in a alpha state when I pitch in for a copy.Īnd that, while being pretty far from DF (at least at first) looks neat on its own. But I could totally see why it would remind you of Terraria at first glance. Remember when DF was just a 2D thing to dig into, not the 3D it is now? Perhaps that is what this is referencing. Losing is a fundamental core aspect of design." ![]() Manage, create, and survive through dynamic and deadly worlds. "Survivors of Ragnarök is a city-building-management-survival game inspired by Dwarf Fortress. I was just going from what it reminded me of in addition to who I recalled the Devs said they were influenced by, like what it says in their summary on Desura: Haven't heard of Diggers before, I'll have to google that. However, as far as this one goes, I believe that an old strategy game called "Diggers" had more to do with it than DF. Heh, I confused this one with Terraria, both are 2D and allow all those funky things with blocks. It also reminds me, part of the appeal of Minecraft was the aspect that it could get crazy detailed in the future (when I pitched in for my copy of the Alpha and future versions) like Dwarf Fortress. I'll be the first to admit as well, I did purchase a few of these games and plan to purchase the rest that were inspired by DF: Video gives more details than the screenshots did īut I want to be clear on something, A Game of Dwarves isn't the only title to have found some inspiration from Dwarf Fortress (or has claimed to). I just came across that, nice trailer that shows that they are close enough to the gameplay of DF for it to appeal to those of who desperately wanted in on the crazy stories DF help generate but found the UI to much a flight sim-esque hurdle to surmount. ![]() Dwarfin" jokes aside, it looks like it'll be complex and fun at the same time, and it will have dwarves and their fortresses. From Paradox, the publisher of Magicka and Europa Universalis, comes: "A Game Of Dwarves". ![]()
