Once you understand the basics of constructions/designations/rooms and memorize some hotkeys, you can get shit done pretty quickly. It takes some getting used to but you play roguelikes, don't you? Man up! The only area I'd say the interface is unusable is labor preferences. Actually, I wouldn't call it unusable, I'd call it an inadequate, downright useless pile of shit!!!! Going to each individual dwarf and scrolling through 30+ plus jobs to enable or disable particular labors in a 100+ dwarf fortress is absurd. Dwarf Foreman is necessary. (FoK! If you're not using this, you should be!)
The current to-do list is pretty exciting. In addition general improvements to the military command structure, wounds, underground features etc. you'll eventually be able to take an army out and explore the massive randomly generated world that, as of now, you really only see like 0.0001% of. Kill some cannibal elves! |

It's playable right now. o__o NT by Fullofkittens 10/09/2008, 7:42pm PDT 
It's like a box of porn and razors, could be real fun but not worth the effort NT by pinback 10/09/2008, 8:00pm PDT 
Ok, that's interesting. NT by Fullofkittens 10/09/2008, 8:43pm PDT
