Mainly, hope.
Hope for what? New updates?

For all those goddamn bugs to be fixed. For the ability to put armor on armorstands. For the day when DF will multithread. For the glorious day when DF 1.0 is released and Toady gets crowned as the god of the gaming industry as he rightfully deserves.

Don't trust this toaster that much, it could be a villain in disguise.
Mostly phone-posting, sorry for any typos or autocorrect hijinks.

DF is a story generation engine like few games (if any) get to be.

Sometimes I simply play like I would play the sims, to get happy people in fancy houses getting married.

Sometimes the roleplaying and the stories it creates, specially since I discovered Legends Viewer.

But I realized some time ago it's my confort game nowadays, so ¿maybe I just got old?
