Dwarf Fortress

[Zen]

Hey guys,
I lurked around for a bit lookin for a dwarf fortress thread and all i found were some mentioning it, so i decided to make this one.
All things dwarf fortress. If anyone would like to play a succession game or something id love for some of the community to get in on it!

Also ive put together the lastest build with a new graphic tileset and uploaded it to rapidshare. here is the link. http://rapidshare.com/files/77568050/DFwtihGFX33f.rar

  graphical tilesets

I've never tried a succession game, and probably don't really have the time for it, unfortunately.

its not realy time consuming i mean ya just play a month or two in the game or whatever we decide and then email the save or post it here for the next person. not alot of pressure

We could come up with some challenges to try and complete like building a tower so high or not using certain things, stuff like that.

I tried to get into Dwarf Fortress, but just couldn't seem to grasp at it :/ It was almost comical though, in how it seemed to stem from Rogue, to the more strategical rounded type of game

Once ya get past the learning curve its alot of fun to play

Sounds like most Rogue games. I highly recommend Nethack and ADOM. :3

Dwarf Fortress is worth more time than those. It gives much more of a tangible reward...as far as any game does :p

Well Gerbil i guess your my only Diggan Gaem friend =(

I'm up for this too   I'm Rusted, and I've been a dwarf addict on and off for one year.  The hardest part was for me to quit playing until the new version came out, and now I'm happily addicted once again.  Hello everyone.

Excellent! the Diggan Gaem addicts are emerging!
Anyone have any idea what kinda challenges or goals they would like to complete/reach?

I was thinking maybe we'd just create stories of our own for entertainment.   Stories that just may hinder us could possibly happen.. on purpose.

Unfortunately it's less of a learning curve and more of a learning wall. I'm going to keep trying, I've got nothing else to do now that school's ended.
