(Gnome devs)

Kobold Desktop Environment just wasn't good enough for them

Is it okay to play Dwarf Fortress with a 3D visualizer? Or does that break some sort of commandment or something?

[-] axont@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

Dwarf Fortress is about having a good time in whichever way is best for you

All dwarf fortress mods and tools are cool and good. Nobody judges you for that

Only if it makes the dwarves look awesome

I didn't know this was a thing and now I gotta try Dwarf Fortress again. The steam release made it almost accessible to me and this will really help.

I hope this isn't based on a true story about the dwarf fortress devs D:

[-] context@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

can't be true, elvish is already implement in dwarf fortress

[-] Cromalin@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

i don't think it is, though afaik the game hasn't been translated on account of how complex it is

Anglos when a game/movie doesn't have english voiceovers.

nah, this isn't the same. dwarf fortress is a complex enough game when you understand the language, i imagine gnome fortress is much the same. playing it without being fluent is likely to end without you doing anything or having any fun

like, the interface isn't even in elvish, that's tough
