Got into Rimworld for the first time and I've gone down such a rabbit hole that I don't know if I can ever stop. I've never played such a completely engrossing game before.

I’ve finally caved and got it. I think I’ve made a terrible mistake…

I've been meaning to pick up Rimworld for years, but it never seems to go on sale for more than 15% off. Consequently, I haven't been able to justify buying it. Suppose I'll eventually get to play a very polished version.

I just picked up all the DLC in the last steam sale so I'm getting back into it. I've played a lot of dwarf fortress so the QoL improvements Rimworld brings are awesome (though I still prefer DF's simulation granularity).

My Prophet and Leader got married and have 2 children so I'm trying to decide how exactly I want to develop my ideology into a cult centered around that family. Though it's rough going right now because I embarked without a good builder so I can't build AC units.

Haven't used much of the Royalty/psychic powers other than building a throne, though.
