This is the most fun I've had playing a video game in a long, long time. Playing successive fortresses on the same world and watching it change with time and the process of growing attached to the world is like nothing I've ever really experienced in a video game before. Add to that the ability to also play as an adventurer in this world, which is unique to my game and has been changed by my actions, and this a completely unique experience. Sometimes I just boot up Legends mode and read about the world. I could go on for hours about it.

It's hard to learn, absolutely. More complicated that RimWorld and the UI seems frustrating on purpose when you first start. But the investment is worth it.
