    oh i’ve never uninstalled it i just keep becoming paralyzed with indecision over and over again because surely one of these days i’ll get over my executive dysfunction enough to build a small network of collective farms around an urban center with a food factory. surely.

      it takes me several real life weeks of prep just to get the construction industry and it’s support population up and running

      super rewarding if you power through eventually though. however long it takes.

      i will keep calling it the kerbal space program of city and factory games

          lol for me dwarf fortress is the prep game.

          way moreso though for rimworld since i intricately mod and balance the game and create characters/xenohumans and do a trans cyberpunk thing

          i haven’t figured out how to do that for dwarf fortress i have a feeling i will eventually

      But what if you make a bunch of collective farms around a fabric factory and a clothing manufacturer and they make some really pretty stuff. Oh, but people need bread with the roses and uhhhhhhhh.

        mostly not because i’m trying to skip past the worst of it and actually play the game. it’s weird, i can play dwarf fortress and make all the decisions i need to but when it comes to w&r i just can’t.
