DF General Discussion / Could we see a sly Dwarf Fortress-Dota "crossover"? (sortof)
« on: September 21, 2012, 01:48:34 pm »
So, when I was browsin' various things about Dota (I'm not gonna explain you what Dota is right now, it's not the point), and I found out that...
One of the heroes (that some of you might know under the name of Omniknight) is actually named Purist Thunderwrath.

Sounds familiar?
Yes?

Guess what I did after quickly jumping into DF and creating a new character in Adv. Mode.
Urist Amudakith, also known as Urist Thunderwrath
(pardon the really small resolution)

Now, imagine Urist (dwarf, fyi) and compare him to Purist (left)
Isn't that SORTA familiar?


Why did I post this, you may ask?
Frankly, I don't know why, and equally frankly, I don't care, either.

Maybe for fun (not for Fun, Fun is another thing), but...
OFF TO MAKE SOME BITCHIN' ARMOR AND A WARHAMMER!

DF General Discussion / Anyone else has a tendency to do THIS?
« on: September 20, 2012, 02:00:53 pm »
By THIS, I mean...

Collecting enemy skulls/bones/whatever and carry them around as trophies? (or store in your stockpile)
I know it sounds pretty unpretty, but...

It can't be just me, right?

Once you harvest it all (and it didn't rot halfway to the fortress), chances of finding any other kind of meat across the region are slim.
Am I right?

Hopefully rescuing prisoners will be added to the list of quests people can offer you. It would be great to finally have a quest that isn't "Go there, kill that guy."
You forgot " Go thataway, this guy there will tell you to go someplace else and kill someone.

Meanwhile in 2050...

Ask about any further details and you best hope God/Armok blessed you.

See title.
That thing...

Slim chances, but theoretically, enormous reward.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Re: What's going on in your adventure?
« on: September 18, 2012, 10:53:49 am »
In a world of mine (that shall remain nameless), of the possibly worst ever settings (very small, very short history, only two civs, very high savagery, extremely rare minerals etc.), with one of the worst possible options (human outsider), I've ventured out into the mountains, and slaughtered a goat (also saw a herd o' buffaloes) which, as you might expect, ended up as my only source of food (bar the blood I had to drink, like a vampire).
The reason I am just mountain dwelling is pretty simple - I want to avoid Boogeymen (can't stress enough how many times they got me killed in the past) and if I saw correctly, I may find the only dwarf civ deep in there.

Nothing special, but works for me.
(screw names, even if they're epic, they're just too hard to write sometimes, if we're talking Dwarven here)

Just a humble question, but...
Remember those good ol' (or not) games where you had to do quests for the kings/monarchs alike?

Well, will there ever be a chance of players being on the other end, giving "quests" to others while being some important guy oneself?
Those pesky karpz...

Anyone wanna to suggest me what to do now? I am now the king in my adventure world.
I assasinated the king of my original civ, ordered everyone to forge the sh!t out of weapons, and conquered every other civ out there.

And now I'm bored, because apparently, all the megabeasts opened the subquantum portals and left my world.

What should I do?

Most realistic: no devlogs. Slaves to Armok: God of Blood Chapter II: Dwarf Fortress project is long ago dead.

Not dead, but finished, safer to say.
Since 1.0.0 (afaik) is planned to come out in 20-30 years...

Then it's...
Slaves to Armok: God of Blood - Chapter III: Dwarven Supercruiser.

Featuring real-time multiverse generation, four-dimensional virtual reality, everything in retro-style, hyperHD* quality.

* - the game uses now long-outdated Unreal Engine 4.0, for true retro feel.

DF General Discussion / What is YOUR most wanted feature?
« on: September 08, 2012, 02:39:10 pm »
(anyone remembers me? no? f***)

While we wait another ninety years until we reach 0.4.0, what is the feature you always wanted to see in the world of lil' drunken beardmen?

Because, well, I am genuinely (and patiently) waiting for Counties - ability to build your own civilization outside your original embark zone, and therefore, making whole new civ (and actively shaping the world in Fortress mode).

I know I will wait a long time for that one, but...
It's not like I'm going anywhere.

What about you?

- Fixed a bug where dwarves could breath indefinitely underlava if they had certain genes combinations.
- Moons now properly generate with Urist Legweak footprints.
- Megabeasts should no longer grab onto nearby planets if they were close enough.
- Tweaked antmen bone durability to make them more durable against weirdly shaped hammer heads.

Your freshness is blinding in its magnitude.

Suddenly, I don't know to take it as an insult or compliment...
Damn my barely-any-fluent English speaking, writing and understanding skills.
