      I personally couldn’t get into the game until the steam release. I just watched other runesmiths carve runes into a computer and make dwarves happen.

      Even the better tile sets pale in comparison to the steam release. I just wish the steam release hadn’t happened under such dire pretenses

        Out of curiosity, what do you mean by “dire pretenses”? I remember the steam release, but wasn’t heavily into DF before that, so maybe I wasn’t aware of things going on in the community? Or is that more about the state of the game on initial release?

      It does. I don’t see the ASCII code anymore. Just dwarf beards in blond and brunette, there is a dog, here a plump helmet.

      Joke aside, it really does get better. Usually when I start smoothing rock pathways, things really come together.
