Fort of 4 in game years destroyed
« on: October 17, 2019, 10:14:58 am »

It wasn't much, but it was honest work.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The mayor and Urist McGeneric ended up surviving but were stuck in bed immobile and starving with no one to take care of them, so I abandoned the fort.
I know the game doesn't have the same following as it used to, but I've had a good time with this game.

hey now, the following is there I just think the majority of old players are mostly silent types. There is less of the youthful enthusiasm present on these forums, but damn if some of the same names are still around from the days of yore. . .

You are ancient Salmeuk. You've been here before I even started lurking.

Hmm. I lost a fort about the same age yesterday, but just due to forgetting to save and an ill-timed crash. Much less dramatic.

The following is still here. I found this game in 2004 and while I've taken breaks and never registered till way later I've played since before we had z levels when carp ruled and thru all the years it is still my #1 #2 #3 and #4 favorite game. (Rise of the mushroom kingdom mid is AMAZING)

Can't add anything new to the whole "Fandom's still here" statement, but can definitely agree. There's still work being done on add-ons. I'm getting into filming YouTube vids to post on my channel, just keep running into new troubles with my equipment and having to start over.  ::)

Steam release will bring in all kinds of little baby dorfs that need to be violently corrupted to the true path of Armok, so that we might fea delicately shepherded into our wonderful fandom.

Like people carefully shepherded SpiralDementia into the fandom by telling them to pull a candy sword out of the ground and get swarmed by the HFS?
