    • @Bill_Garthright
      @Bill_Garthright 4 роки тому +2

      Aurora 4x is more Dwarf Fortress than Dwarf Fortress is. :) At least, that's the case if you're talking about the difficulty of learning it. I love the idea behind it, but I just can't manage the incredibly detailed ship construction.
      But yeah, when he said that Distant Worlds was the Dwarf Fortress of space, I was going to say that's why I love the game. (The economic system is rather silly - like libertarianism on steroids, only it actually _works_ - but that's a minor issue I can easily overlook. It makes a great game, at least.)
      I bought Stellaris when it was first released, but I was never able to get into it. I know there have been a lot of changes, though, so maybe I should try again.

    I tried the Shattered Ring as an origin, kinda disappointing tbh...you literally can't do anything with it unless you get lucky and find a lot of minerals + the correct rare resource to allow upgrading. Otherwise it's a lot like the Doomsday start in that you have to expand to another world ASAP to be able to do anything.
