Nov. 2024

This game taught me a lot about cultural acceptance, and the importance of working together to build something lasting, significant, and beautiful. Then it taught me to hate everything, and everyone.

Sept. 2024

After over 3500 hours of RimWorld, I can confidently say this game is less about colony management and more about watching my carefully laid plans disintegrate into chaos as I scream internally, 'WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS?!' Picture this: It’s mid-winter, your colonists are starving, the food stockpile is low, and your hunter just decided to wander into a grizzly bear's lunch zone. And instead of hauling food back, Karen the Crafting Goddess has decided to have a mental break because someone insulted her hat three months ago. So now, she’s walking around the colony naked, smashing furniture, and punching alpacas, while I’m left wondering if uninstalling the 'Twitchy Temperament' mod was a mistake. And let’s not forget Randy Random’s impeccable timing. Just as you’ve recovered from that toxic fallout, he’s graciously gifted you with a tribal raid… during a solar flare… while your freezer melts, and the colonist with the only decent weapon has food poisoning. Thanks, Randy, really keeping it spicy. Then there’s that one colonist who refuses to do anything useful. Can’t fight, won’t haul, allergic to manual labor. But the second a social fight breaks out, he’s front and center, breaking up relationships like he’s auditioning for RimWorld's next reality drama spin-off: "Raiders of Love Island." Meanwhile, your pet warg is eating raw potatoes in the middle of the hospital while your best doctor has gone berserk and is now fist-fighting the guy he just saved from malaria. Mods, you ask? Oh, I have mods. Hundreds of mods. I don't even know what the base game looks like anymore. I’ve added everything from lightsabers to genetically engineered supercows to a mod that lets me create an army of psychotic squirrels. But still, none of them can save me from the existential dread that is my colonists constantly forgetting how to use doors. In conclusion, RimWorld is the best nightmare you’ll ever willingly subject yourself to. If you’ve ever wanted to simulate the sensation of managing a daycare full of toddlers armed with flamethrowers, please, join me. Just be prepared to explain to your family why you yelled, ‘THE CORPSES NEED TO BE BURNED BEFORE THE COWS GET INFECTED!’ at 3 AM.

Two of my colonist got married at the beginning of my game They had a happy relationship for two years, but the wife then proceeded to cheat on her husband with another man Shortly after she divorces him This causes him to throw a tantrum He proceeds to go into our storage and start punching mortar shells They explode and horribly scar him and shred his manhood off Explosion destroys most of our medicine and gear too Goes into a long recovery process Made worse by the lack of medicine, but he is alive After he recovers, and his catharsis wears off, the pain from the scars causes him to go into a murderous rage Proceeds to kill his ex-wife, and fight her new lover They beat each other to near death, but the lover stands as the victor Almost immediately after the fight ends we are raided by a gang of 11 pirates Those three were are best fighters Now one is dead, and the other two are a strong gust of wind away from dying Pirates proceed to steam roll us After the raid the only people left alive are the husband, the lover, and our doctor (they hid) They spend a week in recovery with each other, and end up forming a great bond and become best friends Lover falls in love and tries to date husband, but husband is straight The pain from getting constantly rebuffed causes lover to start a drug binge He overdoses on coke and dies This causes the husband to go into another tantrum Guess what, he starts punching mortar shells again He does not survive this time, leaving the doctor as the only one left The resulting explosion starts a fire that burns ALL of our supplies Our doctor is only good at being a doctor With no food or other supplies he quickly starves to death The last thing he does before succumbing to starvation is visit the grave of the wife, the one who started this whole thing Collapses on her grave A passing hungry wolf then decides to eat his head off This is the best story game of all time 10/10 would commit adultery again

March 2024

After about 5,000 hours played I started to feel like the game was getting a little stale. That's about 1/2 a penny per hour of enjoyment. I would say Rimworld has been the most "value" purchase I've made in my entire life.

March 2024

Pawn gives birth, it is not a healthy birth, unfortunately the baby passes away. Another pawn has an extreme mental break which results in them digging up a corpse and wanting to show it to everyone. Guess which corpse she dug up and who she showed it to. 11/10
