I brought both steam version and DRM-free version of RimWorld without knowing you can transfer your DRM-free purchase to Steam.

Hi - I am new and I'm having trouble being able to comment on RimworldBase.com (disqus won't send me a confirmation email) or on Steam.  I'm looking for someone to upload a no-power mod(s) to rimworldbase.com for direct download.  I got my version of the game on GOG, so I rely on direct downloads.

I see a guy named sickboyWI has uploaded to Steam a mod "Medieval - Vanilla [1.1] but not for direct download.  I really want that.  Can someone talk to him about it, because I can't comment there either.  :)

Hello people!
happy to join to the forum ;D :D

Hello there folks. Doing the thing with introducing myself shortly after joining. Haven't used a forum in decades so this is feeling nostalgic,

-What introduced you to RimWorld? Or to this style of game in general?
I've been playing strategy/group managing/city-building games for as long as I can remember. Have some very fond memories of managing a bunch of Lemmings to build things, or a bunch of Age of Empire peasants to cut wood and hunt for food... yeah actually I will never forget the thrill of kiting an elephant to hunt it with my squad of peasants in AoE. Ofc I also had a very intense The Sims phase; keeping a family happy and alive was so exciting, I always picked the poor family to keep it on the level of survival. Then I found my first rogue-likes and survival games like Pixel Dungeon and Don't Starve and I was instantly hooked, and now Survival is by far my favorite game type. Rimworld specifically was something I found on a Steam sale, but it pushed all the right buttons in my brain.

-What's your favorite other game?
I'm not much of a favorites person... I also love adventure games like Legend of Zelda and pure building-puzzle games like Train Valley. But I'm inclined to say Don't Starve Together is my favorite. All it lacks is a proper base-building mechanic.

-Most embarrassing gaming-related story?
idk how to answer this. maybe that time I spent a whole month trying and failing to beat the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time, and when I had finally done it, my baby cousin came to visit and deleted my file, and so I've never managed to complete that game?

-What kind of breakfast cereal is the best?
I'm into granola with chocolate milk, a drop of coffee and bananas.

Aavak! The incredible Welsh guy on YouTube! I've been watching his channel for years now. I've seen all of his RimWorld LPs. I just got RimWorld a few days ago.
As far as this genre of game: Sim City 2000 and Roller Coaster Tycoon really hooked me as a kid. Though they are way different than RimWorld, the idea of building and managing is my idea of fun.

-What's your favorite other game?
I don't play any other games. I procrastinate enough as it is and I couldn't justify spending the money for a decent PC. I finally cracked and although I procrastinate even more, I don't feel the least bit bad about it.

-Most embarrassing gaming-related story?
The fact that I love playing PC games and I have not been allowing myself to enjoy them. I have been living vicariously though YouTube LPs.

-What kind of breakfast cereal is the best?
Raisin Bran with spoonfuls of peanut butter! Happiest of Days!
Go away or I shall taunt you again!

Hello all  :)
I'm Ann, a photographer and writer from Poland.

-What introduced you to RimWorld? Or to this style of game in general?

I think my husband gave me copy of Rimworld because I like building/with animals and plants/strategy games.

-What's your favorite other game?
My beloved games are all from Divinity series from Larian. But I also play sim games with collecting animals (like Flight Rising), some otome text games like Ninja Shadow, as well as Fallout and Overwatch as a sniper.

-Most embarrassing gaming-related story?
Well... not so long ago, when I was playing Rimworld with Real Ruins mod I found 100 fertilized turkey eggs... I was so happy to hatch them and I put them in my hospital where was my temporary place for hatching eggs. But I forgot that they won't be mine but wild xD And so 100 turkeys hatched and took the whole hospital.

-What kind of breakfast cereal is the best?
I do not eat cereal as breakfast but everyday before it I eat some sunflower seeds.Hello all  :)

Hey.  I'm Madame Hardy.  (It's the name of a rose.)  I've loved management games for years.  I finally decided that if Oxygen Not Included wasn't too intense for me (I find it hilaritragedous), I could probably tackle Rimworld.  I bought a copy yesterday to tide me through a migraine, and now I bumble on.

Hey friends I'm no Rim-expert but love the game either way! I've got about 200 hours logged on Steam and I've actually recently been hired to write a couple of articles about Rimworld for GamersDecide. I was instructed to share them on the community forums so I guess be on the lookout for my work lol.

I've had a blast ruining the lives of dozens of pawns in my time playing, and I've had the most fun with the game after I installed the multiplayer mod on steam. It's a special brand of chaos trying to coordinate a colony with very different play styles between more than one person. It's a ton of fun.

I look forward to participating in the Rim-community. It looks like all the experts gather here with what must be hundreds of thousands of hours collectively. If not much more.

Just want to say thanks for making a game that we love and play.

-What introduced you to RimWorld? Or to this style of game in general?
I saw it from a youtuber. Before that I would see the game and think "I probably wouldn't like this types of game" and now I have played the game for 100+ hours. I am addicted now.
-What's your favorite other game?
Hearts of Iron IV.
-Most embarrassing gaming-related story?
Don't remember.
-What kind of breakfast cereal is the best?
I don't eat cereal that much so I don't know.

Hello everyone  :), I joined the forum mainly because I'm experiencing a problem with Rimworld and I hope to find someone here who can give me a hand to solve it. I apologize in advance for the English but I don't write/speak it that well.

-What introduced you to RimWorld? Or to this style of game in general?
I love resource management games, survival games, and overall having fun. This is the perfect resource management that fits my needs.
-What's your favorite other game? I like to play pretty much any game honestly. I like Squad a lot as well.
-Most embarrassing gaming-related story? I used to try and download "VRAM" when I was 10 to make more FPS.
-What kind of breakfast cereal is the best? Any

A little about me, I am a US Army veteran who is getting into Law Enforcement. I love to do artwork, and I have been leaning code. I stopped playing RimWorld for a while but I am back and hopeful to release a new mod I am working on that will add a huge amount of appeal customization options in Modern Civilian settings. I am working on the mod by myself so it is such a learning experience. I love playing video games (obviously) and playing games with my wife (she has a better rig D:). Anyways thanks for having me I hope to be able to release my creative ideas soon! You can find all my official artwork in Rimworld Discord server!
