    Default RimWorld

    Just picked this up. Apparently its popular enough that the developers never put it on sale which is interesting. Haven't tried it yet, but it looks fascinating. Sort of like Prison Architect in graphics but with more action than just building and maintaining a facility. And much more of a story with developed characters. Anyone else play it?

    I've seen a few youtube videos of it, and it looked fun. An interesting mix of elements, and things to do. I haven't bought it yet, but I'm definitely think it looks worthy of a purchase. Seems like it would have loads of entertainment value. Let me know what you think once you've played a bit of it, because I'm very interested in the game.

    Did the tutorial and then played a little bit more. Its pretty complicated starting out, lots of mechanics that the tutorial doesnt seem to explain, but I will keep at it.

    Aww what happened to Fragony's post?

    Anyway, in reply to him, definition of Rim:
    Noun: the upper or outer edge of an object, typically something circular or approximately circular.
    Verb: 1) form or act as an outer edge or rim for. 2) mark with an encircling stain or deposit.

    Yeah my bad, felt it was a bit too explicit for this sub.


    Anyways, Im a bit more into the game now. Its slow to start, but things are picking up. I have gotten a new colonist now, and I am expanding. Finally figured out how to make a refrigerator so all my food doesnt spoil. Making more crops than just rice and potatoes. Wish my colonists would be more useful instead of whining about every little thing. And one of my four colonists is apparently incapable of violence, and another a brawler and gets mad if I give her a ranged weapon. Thanks a lot, you useless hunter.
