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.

Fernbhoy! I didn't know you played Rimworld! I've seen you on the streams. I am TheColinGaming on twitch. I've played with you in attack on titan and such. ShivCom, all that snaz. Awesome to see you on the forums!

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
He also has a podcast with Brady Haran (Numberphile, Sixty Symbols etc) called Hello Internet.
Both are good friends with Derek Muller (Veritasium), Destin Sandlin (SmarterEveryDay) and Henry Reich (MinutePhysics, MinuteEarth). I really hope one of those rings a bell.
