Don't mess with themI've been playing this game called Dwarf Fortress a lot lately. And I have no problem with saying that it's one of the very best games I've played, ever. Used to hate it because, well, it wouldn't work. But as I found (And by "found" I mean "was provided by a pal of mine." You know who you are) a modded download (graphics pack n' stuff), I instantly tried it and it was awesome. Even though I killed most of my dwarves instantly by accident. Woops.
If you like world simulator things, dwarves, hilarious deaths, and you like retro games and/or using your imagination, I suggest you give it a shot. Take notice that this game isn't "superfast incredible awesome shit flying everywhere action"-paced. You gotta take it slow and easy with this one. While knowing that your eventual defeat will be inevitable in this game. But in this game LOSING IS FUN. Better believe it!

Oh, almost forgot to mention.
Started a project related to this game alone as well, a small webcomic I'll try to be updating a few times a month. We'll see how long It'll take for me to lose patience or have no further ideas. The ideas I currently have will go past December, but I'm not that sure of my patience.
Check it out if you're intrested:
[link]I'm intending on putting the next strip up later today as long as I have the energy to finish it. I slept a bit over 3 hours last night and I'm off work at 3pm. I guess I'll sleep when I get home, play some borderlands and then finish the second strip.

PS. Turns out I have hit 50 watchers. THANK YOU, people. Yeah, even you who just go around clicking +watch on every single account you see and won't even read this. But if you did read this, I'll say that I mean it when I said thanks.
