Title: How did you find out about Rimworld?
Post by: SpasticRabbit on August 22, 2015, 09:31:55 PM
As the title says, how did you find out about Rimworld? I found out about this amazing game through a nifty youtuber called Enter Elysium. I've been around since the Pre-Alpha, as has he. Here is a link to his channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/EnterElysium?&ab_channel=EnterElysium

I found out about it in a thread on I think Gnomoria on Steam forums asking for similar games.

Dang a lot of people learned about it through youtube. I can never bring myself to watch someone else play a game as I would rather just play it myself. I have never understood peoples desire to do that and laugh when my son does it lol. Times change I guess I am an old man. The only time I ever watch youtube is to learn something.

Watched a series about it on Youtube by Etalyx https://www.youtube.com/user/GamersDissent

Looked interesting enough so I figured I would check it out.

I got interested when CGPGrey said that he plays it. He uploaded a gameplay of his and it looked like something I would like as well. He is a youtuber (former teacher) making educational and entertaining videos. His most popular:
The Difference between the United Kingdom, Great Britain and England Explained (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNu8XDBSn10)
He also has a podcast with Brady Haran (Numberphile (https://www.youtube.com/user/numberphile), Sixty Symbols (https://www.youtube.com/user/sixtysymbols) etc) called Hello Internet (http://www.hellointernet.fm/).
Both are good friends with Derek Muller (Veritasium (https://www.youtube.com/user/1veritasium)), Destin Sandlin (SmarterEveryDay (https://www.youtube.com/user/destinws2)) and Henry Reich (MinutePhysics (https://www.youtube.com/user/minutephysics), MinuteEarth (https://www.youtube.com/user/minuteearth)). I really hope one of those rings a bell.
