  I’ve tried the game a few times and it doesn’t click with me. What’s is it that you find so appealing?

    Emergent gameplay is what appeals to me

    I like that each pawn builds up a personality overtime and grows as a character. I pretty much just play Rimworld as a doll house simulator

      I feel this way about XCOM. I’ll give this a shot.

        When someone does a heroic move I elevate them to hero status in the colony and they get a better bedroom, better armour and the best weapon.

    For me a lot of it is in trying to maximize efficiencies. Setting up task duties and resources where you have plenty enough but not overloading your storage. Defensive position designs to counter any possible situation. Layouts to the base to allow free movement.

    Lot of others try for specific artistic ideas or scenario goals, but I’m something of engineer minded player.

      I’m not efficiency oriented at all. Which I dislike because I wish I was, but simply not. I do like base building games, and enjoyed Banished a lot.

      I imagine you’ve played Satisfactory.
