<3 <3 <3 thanks mate for the feedback. I'm kind of in an early stage of online presence, like, deciding what exactly I want 'nijinsky df' to produce.. I might make a discord for purposes of tutorials and succession games / save file sharing. you should stop by one of my twitch streams so we can connect.

​@@nijinskiydf >I'm kind of in an early stage of online presence, like, deciding what exactly I want 'nijinsky df' to produce.. eh, who cares? Don't take it too seriously, just have fun with it and make stuff you'd like to watch (the process of doing this may not be fun but you like !FUN! don't you?) >I might make a discord for purposes of tutorials and succession games / save file sharing. Sounds reasonable. I run my own social media thing, do you want an account on that too? We have very large upload limits. >you should stop by one of my twitch streams so we can connect. I work too much to have the time for that. I'll try to though

absolutely stunning fort by the way. Maybe you could make a video on how to build aesthetic fortresses in the furure? Or something about best practices for building good-looking fortresses? Because this is really really good.

also also please share the save file with us if possible.

@@Esoteric_5075ism hmm I think I can bring up the file later today, I will edit the description of this video. thanks for the compliments I appreciate you even watched this lazy compilation haha .. all I can say is for aesthetics in DF is that you must have understanding of aesthetics OUTSIDE DF to properly apply them in-game. if only because generating specific colors / textures / shapes from the game engine can be obtuse, frustrating, or straight up impossible. so this is perhaps why I find designing in DF so compelling. This meta-game of acquiring the proper materials for your constructions, will all the heroic violence and social drama involved, and then applying that material in a certain way.. my first tip is to have a clear vision of what you want to create, and try to make that creation fit into the existing environment, in a somewhat realistic way. essentially, design in DF is about aesthetically reproducing the impression of a physical reality such that the viewer might interpret the various blocks and items as having a greater meaning. you literally build a story into the brickwork, yeah?

@@nijinskiydf >you need to have a sense of aesthetics outside of dwarf fortress damn. Well there goes that. Guess I'll just build a dwarven calculator instead. Thanks for the tips though. I honestly struggle the most with just getting a solid idea of what I want to build. Most of my forts just degenerate into vertical circular bedrooms and lots of winding maze-like pathways through more blobby rooms. Lots of multi-story overlooks aswell. Then I give up halfway through digging the spaghetti out and start anew lol. One must imagine Sisyphus happy I suppose.

my soliution to this problem was forcing myself to endure 1x1 or 1x2 embarks until i was capable of making aesthetically pleasing compact functional bases when you go back to 3x3 embarks it feels better​@Esoteric_5075ism

thx I scribble notes as I play, its a habit from all the succession games I used to play on the bay12forums. re: sticky notes, having that additional narrative is what makes this game amazing!! you should share your concepts

I will definitely keep this in mind next time I play a colony sim!

RIP. well, there's always the next fortress~

good job fighting the elven menace.

hell yeah you should!! writing on the side really brings the life out of the simulation. thanks for watching

thanks seb! i'm experimenting with journaling more. <3<3

what are the other 4

​@@moquette28541-don't throw your last flask 2-play safe, not greedy 3-item Radar finds hearts 4-Total Steve death, kill Steve, behead Steve, roubdhouse kick a dummy statue into Steve, anger steve with acid, defecate on Steve's cadaver

i expected true love and all i got was horrible dis-figuration and death

steam, or its free at bay12games

hey thanks! yeah I play a lot... been playing since like 2007. hopefully my megalomaniacal projects inspire you

Or am I just blind? XD

This is the steam/premium version of DF. Came out last December

hey! yeah this is premium. you can find my older videos with ASCII - the new graphics are alright but I'm honestly missing the aesthetics of previous versions. thanks for the comment :]

thanks for watching. yeah i dunno the terrain just sorta looked like a squid so i felt compelled by the gods. its like pareidolia but for cephalopods haha

thanks! i bet u could

i cut trees, bugs (birds) attack, i see no difference

thanks mate! love the support.

nice

sure! whisper me on twitch. I used Vherid's "Ash" color set for this stream. It was actually our conversation that inspired me to try this one out, so thank you. I want to do more tileset review esque things in the future.

@@nijinskiydf Woohoo! I'm inspirational :)
