We just can't have nice things can we. There's always a goddamn catch.
Higher density homes? No, no, no, we want to build our single family mini-mansions on wetlands and nature conserves. Get out of here with your logic and sensibility.
The real content in the comments.
The thing is, reservoirs only hold so much. Get all that moisture at once, they have to release the extra water and it effectively goes to waste. Snow pack melting slowly will add that moisture slowly over the course of a longer time. Snow pack is like a reservoir for the reservoir.
Compound that with hotter summers that have longer periods of little to no precipitation.
Gotta remember, publishers are basically car salesmen. They didn't build the car, they skim over the spec sheets and learn which trims give them the best cut of the profit. They'll say whatever bullshit they want to make a sale - and in a financial report, their target isn't gamers, it's investors.
Yes, they should drop everything else they are doing and have a singular focus on the one issue that matters to me!
Yup. That's exactly it. There a lot of people in the "no particular fandom" category that can determine a sales winner and loser.
Well then do that! Do fucking something!
Sitting on our hands and doing nothing also is not the answer.
Jail should include that rehabilitation. I don't care just don't leave them to reoffend over and fucking over!
Insert "alwayshasbeen.jpg" meme here... :/
From my understanding Omada is a really good for this - it gives you the choice. Cloud controller, self-hosted controller or no-controller mode with a good ol'web UI built into the device itself.
I can't speak to how good of a product it is, but I'm keeping my eye on this brand for future projects.
I've played DF off and on for years. The UI overhaul it had recently makes the game much easier to play, and get into and really enjoy. The learning curve is way softer. Previously, I'd load the game up once or twice a year, build a fort, get to the point where I'd be wiped out and be like, okay, that was fun and then not play it again for months, or years. With the updated UI... I've put in 700 hours since it came out.
It's still a game where you basically have the wiki on alt-tab, and you still have to google some crap to learn how to do intricate stuff. That said, I also find youtube is much easier to follow along with the new graphics set, so that helps too. TwistedLogic gaming, Blind, and few others have great tutorials on youtube. If you want to watch some fun stories, Kruggsmash and Hoodie Hair put up some fantastic videos as well - and they've honestly kind of inspired how I approach playing DF sometimes.
It's kind of nice to play, and it scratches the same itch for me that Cities: Skylines used to, wherein I can go "one more thing, need to do one more thing, one more thing, ooh a forgotten beast gotta deal with that, then one more thing" BUT if I have to, I can just hit pause and walk away for a bit, or, if my fort is in a good state with no monsters or armies running around, I can walk away with it running while the dorfs just do their thing for a bit.
About 8 months ago I finally started using DFHack, which despite the name is really just a collection of really awesome tools, while it has the potential to make the game very easy (and that's fine too!) it does include many quality of life things if some process is just too tedious. I'd say it's upped my enjoyment another notch because it's just so well implemented. When I feel like easy mode, I turn on things like fastdwarf, and when I'm ready to just challenge myself I can turn it off.
DF is very much a game of play at your own pace. Even without DFHack, if you're getting overrun by werewolves and goblin armies, just turn the settings for that stuff down or off. But the main thing to remember with this game: Losing is FUN!
