  • picked up rimworld after participating (in name) in a discord event where one person fed us all into his game and shared our activities to much hilarity.

    totally overwhelming to start. but found the wiki site which outlines lots of things you need to do.

    last night my colony was going really well, took in a band of stragglers who got everything looking spotless and filled my warehouse with wood and steel as cutters and haulers for a week at the cost of a massive increase to my food expenditure, then out of nowhere they betrayed us (like they'd planned all along!), but not before I locked them in their barracks and put everyone with weapons outside the door. they lost their shit and smashed the place up and one plucky ne'er do well broke through a wall and just made it off the map before i could stab him. this meant we had a bunch of new mess, not much food and a couple of injured colonists so I tended the sick, buried the dead but had no one to clean up, which is when the self-tamed lynx decided to un-self tame itself but stay in my camp chilling. I manage to get back on an even keel but about a week later having just locked up one of my colonists for burning down half our crops because she's a pyromaniac the lynx decides to start hunting 2 of our colonists, the ensuing fight is pretty brutal, our medic gets injured and ends up on the verge of a breakdown, another colonist (the one who tends our crops AND cooks) quickly dies from bloodloss. then driven mad by grief, her dog turns into a manhunter and eats our prisoner then attacks our non-violent colonist who dies after I kite him around trying to pick off the dog with an injured doctor and his wife who both have a shooting skill of 1, so he of course dies, but so does the dog, while this is happening another prisoner we were looking after for a quest gets picked up and we get a new colonist join as the reward... except his doesn't like to do ANYTHING and was close to a major break within days due to how fucked up things were. and now I'll be starting over...

    I have too much stuff I want to get done IRL so picking this up was a bad move.
