I'm shelving this for now, but it couldn't be further from the truth to say I didn't like the time I spent with it so far. Dwarf Fortress seems like the time sink I needed a couple of years ago, but I just don't have the time currently. It's one of the coolest game concepts I've seen and I already spent a bunch of time in Rimworld, which is (i think safe to say) directly inspired by DF. If you like colony sims, city builders, strategy games of any kind.... you won't necessarily love DF, because it's so excessively complex you will have to study the game and spend hundres, if not thousands of hours in there to really have experienced it fully. I hope I will find the time to check it out more thoroughly, can't wait to do it actually. <3
