Within 3 in-game years my fortress was:
1. In a war with birds.
2. Infiltrated by a vampire who waited a whole year before striking so he wouldn't be suspicious.
3. Haunted by not one but TWO dwarven babies fell into a deep quarry water drain
4. In a lot more trouble than I would or could ever ask for.

10/10 I'm not even mad. That ♥♥♥♥ wild.

I'm super jealous then. I haven't even reached 30 hours of game time over the past month.

And so many other reviews are very similar, so I apologize if didn't interpret yours in the way you intended. Sure, they don't have the exact same story, but these reviews (re: retellings) are a near collection of like random occurrences, and they don't make the uninitiated excited about playing the game.

It's like you are writing a "positive review" for other people who have already bought and played a lot of DF, and not people who have never tried it and are thinking of giving it a whirl. And honestly, what's the point of that?

Yeah I do have job but my sched is pretty free and I do like the game so I don't mind using that time to do something I actually like.

The review being what has happened in a single run shows just how unpredictable the game is in a good way. If you couldn't read the lines like that, I don't think you should be commenting on other people's reviews.

But hey, that's just me :steambored:

163,4 hours in last 2 weeks? You spent half your life over last 2 weeks playing this game? Do you have a job?

And why are so many of the positive reviews just stories of what happened? Read like diaries and not reviews.
