an adventure through my valley of retired fortresses (Dwarf Fortress)

This might be my last adventure for a while depending on how long it takes for it to come to the steam version. This was a pretty cool adventure to go out on though.

Watching this while new to the channel and not having seen any of the previous videos has a special sort of comedy. The casual tone with which Hoodie explains each new, bizarre situation just adds to the absurdity, and what a brilliant absurdity is is. Subbed for sure

[@laurelindeep5394]

btw, having been watching Kruggsmash today following the steam release, your nazush video showed up on my front page (how I found the channel). Hooray for the algorithm!

[@retnuhretnuh]

This is a nice way to say goodbye. I'm super stoked for the Premium release!

[@Mel-mu8ox]

By the time Adventure Mode comes to steam. you will have another set of stories to tell as you adventure for the first time to all the forgotten forts :D I'm looking forward to doing this myself :)

[@peaceanquiet4528]

"and I could see all of it, because I had the walls removed during renovations" ahhhhh a true project man, never finish a project.

[@Gonzakoable]

This video has seriously made me reconsider how I want to aproach dwarf fortress worlds. I normally one and done most of them and I delete them after a single fortress

[@nil.thokit]

I should really stop making new worlds every time I want to make a new fortress...

[@madmarshman]

I struggle to retire a fort, I think if I keep it running in the save, I might play it again ..... I never do.

[@skronixmetox3909]

I just learned last month about the game, through a video that popped up on my KZbin feed. It's the one of the developer describing the "bug" of cats dieing jn the tavern. I thought oh I'll wait till the release of the steam version, but I got so into watching and reading the stories that I had to try it out myself now. I'm so hyped for the steam version!

[@Alphabass121]

Nice to see a retrospective

[@mikelezhnin8601]

"haunted house", "rollercoaster", "fortress of mandatory happiness"... This guy is a madman.

4 more days!

[@mburzzzawa]

Nice one Hoodie. Small neat bundle of nostalgia;) Let's go!

[@rustyfisher2081]

I like to imagine the dwarves moved to the steam version too

[@svennevs5740]

I just found this and I gotta say, I'm into this content.

[@tofu_u]

Ohhh snap I’m so excited to see your steam edition fortresses! We’re so close!!

[@commentarytalk1446]

"The Valley Of Dead Bodies." - A sight for sore eyes!

[@Ancusohm]

It's fun to check in on the previous forts.

[@augustinpaladinesbernstein5076]

amazing work, you'll find great success with the new steam release public if you keep steady with these, I guarantee it ! cheers from Paris France !

[@Jokervision744]

"Is this this an attack!" - Omg I'm laughing. I love it. I'm reminded of fallout by this.

[@user-iv3ui6cc9v]

Steam edition, let's go!

[@HierisLars]

Really liked this video, I have been messing around with Dwarf Fortress adventure mode a bit myself, but I figured it was best to wait for Steam release. I have almost zero knowledge of the game but I really want to get better at it and understand it. I'm really stoked for adventure mode on steam version, I just want to roam the lands with a fellowship.

[@josegc9802]

I heard there will not be adventure mode on steam release

[@HierisLars]

@@josegc9802 No it will be released later on.

[@ClownyCobalt]

Excellent send off hoodie! I should really rush my current fort that I haven't really done much in, give it a proper send off myself!

[@Joe-lr7nn]

Yessss, longer video, great stuff

[@towrofterra]

Great stuff :) I'm really looking forward to the steam release!

[@josegc9802]

I love this game, no more or less words, just that

[@MassiveBreaker]

Can't wait for Adventure mode next year in premium!

[@Ben-rq2ei]

I believe they said your worlds will be transferable to the steam version. Just drag it into the save folder for the steam version. Edit: Mishear/read stuff; pretty much, you can still use the old versions of dwarf fortress from their website.

[@jendart5409]

This is amazing

[@meneither3834]

It's somewhat ironic how a human made dwarves make their civilisations in a river valley.

[@pojzintheplace112]

The kobold is an intelligent undead capable of using magic. The thing is both kobolds and int undead don't speak

[@pojzintheplace112]

Also there's a good chance you have a Necromancer in you fort

[@plushie946]

Kobolds can't speak in a way that dwarves understand regardless. Only other creatures with the UTTERANCES tag can communicate with them. I don't remember how this works in adventure mode because I haven't run into a Kobold on it in years (primarily because as other races get updates they essentially power creep, meanwhile Kobolds have been relatively untouched for like 6 years and as such their civilizations get wiped out even faster than they used to).

[@SerGeon1606]

are we gonna get more content once the steam version is out? please i need it

[@hoodiehair]

I'll definitely be making at least the same amount of videos, maybe more depending on how busy I am with exam stuff

[@ker0356]

@@hoodiehair can't wait

[@tritoner1221]

the only differences between df classic and the steam version are ui tweaks, a new tileset, and a new soundtrack. maybe it'd be possible to import your current world into the steam version when it comes out?

[@plushie946]

this isn't true, there's numerous changes. A lot of things had to change in order to add clickable UI and mouse controls. Also just loads of bug fixing and new minor things.

[@sparta117corza]

No adventure mode yet

[@tpsSurvivoR]

Didn't you have that bug where upon switching from one gamemode to another, the majority of buildings and items in your fort would be put in random locations?

[@hoodiehair]

I think that was because that fort got conquered, not retired. decided not to take my adventure to that fort on the opposite side of the world.

[@emmettbrown3463]

what tileset are/were you using? love the vids

[@hoodiehair]

this is the spacefox tileset!

[@spockbetter]

could you not take the savefile and put it in the steam version?

[@hoodiehair]

no they changed the file structure or something and they aren't cross compatible

[@spockbetter]

@@hoodiehair ah that sucks i see

[@dntbther9298]

A world died but a new one will soon be born. less buggy, faster and with better UX.
