The game was very much fun, but with events like that I feel it is not worth investing another 12 hours in the next round if it can end so fast even on reasonable difficulty levels.
Have you tried The Sims?

Congrats. Rimworld may not be the best game I've ever played, but- oh wait yes it is.

I say we just call it Star Craft 3 and crowd-fund the money needed for legal fees.

A high amount of sexual innuendo correlations in things which have zero sexual innuendos is a signal of anxiety. I'd say this can be safely related to pathological levels.

I see your point, but "Jim's World" doesn't really give off the vibe I think they're going for.
You're on the edge of known space, so maybe instead how about EDGING?
World of Edging?

Nah you are just normal and not some sexually deficient incel.
I don't think incels are either giving or receiving many rimmings. A priori, they are not.

My friends who don't play Rimworld call it World of Rimming and assume it's some kind of erotic theme park management game.

mods can start to come across as almost part of the game
"Hey there CEO of Ford, I painted my car lime green and showed some other people how to paint their cars lime green and now I demand a say in the colour of the next car you make."

I'm not going to try and speak for Tynan, but I fail to see how this could be interpreted as disrespectful to modders.
Someone much smarter than me said it like this;
Imagine if a guy owned a hotel and I came every day and cleaned for free. So people like his hotel and pay him more. I do this for years. Now the hotel owner comes and tells me I'm cleaning wrong and please clean more of the rooms? For free. Just bc he said so.
I'd like to add that the hotel owner also did so without thanking me for my labour, or asking me for my opinion. Does that seem right? I never asked nor expected to be paid, and I don't need any thanks - but this is just rubbing me the wrong way.
Oh, one more thing, for those out there that are worried about save games getting broken, there's a much better solution: create local copies of Workshop mods. You can do this manually, or use a mod for it to do it in-game; Mod Switch or my own Mod Manager.
I guess the question really is: why are you "working" for free in the first place? If that's how you view it then I think you messed up somewhere along the line. Modding is a hobby, not some kind of internship. I don't see why a game maker should be grateful to people for voluntarily messing around with his game, or why you feel entitled to a seat on the board. Go make your own game maybe? You might even get paid. And your analogy is bogus anyway because nobody wants to stay in a dirty hotel but very large numbers of people want to play vanilla Rimworld. If a hotel is dirty people will go stay in a different one, whereas if Rimworld had no mods it would still be better than similar games. The number of people who wouldn't be playing Rimworld if there were no mods is very small and vocal, as is usually the case with such thing.

If you played 3000 hours of RimWorld, I'd say you squeezed as much value out of it as you can and should let dead dogs lie.
Or take living dogs for a walk.
Seriously, go outside.

This reminds me of when the guy who plays Sam in Game of Thrones was talking to someone who said it seems weird that Sam stays fat while living at the Wall, and the actor says there are dragons and magic and zombies but my still being fat is the thing you find unrealistic?
I hope he does a good job playing the character, because as a person he's an idiot. Game of thrones is one of the most realistic fantasy settings ever. So-called "low fantasy". Yes, it has dragons and zombies but it has its own internal consistency and - at least in the books - characters are often very rational. Fantasy and sci-fi often make a substitution at some fundamental level by changing some rules, but they tend to be logical from that point (esp. sci-fi). People who like Game of Thrones often do so because it's one of the more convincing fantasy settings, and it's largely because of its rationality and pragmatism.
Yes, rational, pragmatic dragons.

With 3000h I would say maybe you shouldn't play Rimworld any more anyway. Go for a walk.

Hi all.
Something has bothered me since playing through this game a few times.
There is no water required for survival.
A fundamental aspect to most survival games is missing.
Not that it's game breaking but seems a little strange to not have water as a functional requirement to your survival.

General Discussion / Re: placing trees infront of sandbags worth it?

ive see it happen, if you have like 5 sand bags you will see that after a gun fight that the middle ones will be damaged, sometimes bullets will hit trees instead of flying through them.
I think this is just bullets which have missed anyway damaging things around the target.
