    Well deserved, it’s a truly wonderful game. For readers unfamiliar with the game, here’s a short funny showcase by Sseth.

      What a bunch of rubbish. Vegeta does in fact use a variation of destructo disc to cut off Gohan's tail when he's transformed.

    Rimworld is amazing, as well. Big update and expansion in a few days

    I really wish the gampad controls were better. Which I know is a dumb thing to want for a game as complex as this.

      I’m just glad there’s finally mouse support lol

        How'd you judge the Steam / GUI version?
        I did like one playthrough of the original a long time ago, maxed out at 200 dwarfs and then eventually stopped, just to never touch it again because I could not be arsed to learn the controls & UI again.
        I like the depth of DF but there's titles like Odd Realm or Songs of Syx that are much easier to get into after taking a break.

      Does Steam on Linux offer the same controller settings? You can basically map gamepad buttons to any action of the keyboard / mouse and save it as a layout that will be activated each time you launch the game.
