Very unintuitive to understand or learn how to play, the UI is somewhat cumbersome and there's many complex systems to understand which can be difficult for new players. With that being said, if you're able to overcome the steep learning curve or perhaps desire that sort of challenge, this is one of the best simulation games I've ever played. I spent probably my first 50-100 hours of gameplay just learning mechanics and how to properly optimise my fort, but after getting past that phase I now have real goals and objectives when I play which makes for interesting stories that tell themselves. The game is never really going to tell you exactly what to do, that's something you have to figure out on your own, which makes playing as much of an artistic endeavour as it is a colony sim. I can still see myself putting many more hours into Dwarf Fortress, (especially with the recent full release of Adventure Mode,) despite my current playtime of around 600 hours it still feels as though there are many things in the game I have yet to see or experience.

drank a few sodas, not gonna lie

Pretty cool, I guess. Might turn you gay tho.

I genuinely can't wait to see what they do with this in the future. The game is a lot of fun, but currently lacks a whole lot of things to do. Keeping in mind that it is still very early access, I would still recommend it in hopes that in the future there will be more features and I have a lot of hopes for this game.
