The narrow window where you have enough pawns to actually do things but not so many the game is constantly shitting huge raids on you.

>>2110013 (OP)
It won't ever be fun for you, play something else

>>2110013 (OP)
When you unpause

>>2110015
Actual answer. The scaling is a pain in the ass

>>2110013 (OP)
When you uninstall it and play Dwarf Fortress instead

>Spawn
>Make infinite food production
>Build a house
>Wait for raids
That's the WHOLE game. There is nothing else in it

>>2110013 (OP)
I'm struggling to beat anomaly because I get bored half way through the run every time. I have 15 masterwork assault rifles they can't throw anything at me that bothers me anymore.

>RV with built-in PD
>Powerful Faction Bases
there's your fun

>>2110013 (OP)
you need to spend a few dozen hours modding it first, not worth the bother unless you know full well what you want out of this game and are sure you'll find it there.

Aside from that, get yourself some cock and ball torture realistic mods.
A few from the top of my mind:
Realistic ranching, realsitic plant cycle, seeds please, materials expanded, yayo combat/combat extended.

The basegame survival itself gets extremely trivial once you have set up a farm and have more than one source of electricity, the only real danger to your colony is raids which are the weakest part of the game gameplay and roleplay wise.

Make up some backstories for your colonists in your head and play out their stories, that's the fun part

This

Plus consider the obvious option: deliberately damage the gear.
It doesn't matter one fucking bit if your rifle is at 100% or 49% of HP for its use, but it makes a difference for its value. And the lower the total value of your base, the better. It's not perfect, but damaging weapons and gear is a great way to prolong the point where raiders will just keep attacking you near non-stop.
Same with keeping things functional, but modest.
And never, ever hoarding money.

>MUH DF
>MUH FAILING IS FUN
>MUH NO GOAL AT ALL, MAKE YOUR OWN
Yeah, no. Watching paint dry is more stimulating than a session of DF
Also: I bet you play the shitty graphic mode and not ASCII, and actually think it helps

>>2110486
True, if a game doesn't have a goal - it's goyslop. Rimworld is shit imo but it's objectively better than DF because it has a goal

>>2110013 (OP)
After you've finished porting all of your mods over and updating.

>>2110477
It wasn't meant to be funny you low iq subhuman.

>if a virtual environment lets you craft your own story and creates a world that feels alive, it's goyslop
Braindamaged.

>>2110545
>Dood just make your own fun, am I right?

>>2110489
I haven't played DF but that game afaik actually simulates a ton of shit and that alone should make the world and the way you interact with it richer and more compelling, Rimworld is very very shallow in that sense and for that reason it gets stale quickly

>>2110558
Nothing happens in both DF and Rimworld but at least in Rimworld you have a goal so you are not just staring at the screen like a retard

I always get to the point where I have a decent rice farm and functioning "house" and then get bored because I don't know what to except watch my settlers survive forever with mild improvements here and there.

>>2110637
The new ship fuckery is pretty neat

>>2110545
People get mad as fuck when the developer doesn't tell them what to do even though at the end of the day you are still playing pretend in front of a screen in both cases. It's hypocritical and retarded, but what can you expect from people who are mentally slaves.

>>2110489

get the mod that scales raids off of your pawn count and their skills and not item value
yes you can pirate it too

>>2110013 (OP)
I understand the hate but after I got through the first hundred hours and found some good mods (vanilla expanded comes to mind) I'm having fun. I personally enjoy playing around with ideology and biotech

>oh cool rw thread
>it's random bitching
Cumskins and tribals the lot of you

all games like this follow the same flow
Early game most fun most engaging
mid game Boring as shit a slog
End game is only seen as good because it's no longer mid game

>>2110013 (OP)
Rimworld is one of those games where you're meant to make your own fun.
If you're one of those people who can't do that then you should just not bother with it.

>DF Doesn't have a goal.
>What is getting to Hell?
>What is developing your fort until it's the capital?
I'm not going to say "You can make your own goal", even if that's technically true. But those two listed above should be just as good as Rimworld's "build a ship & leave". Especially because no one wants to do any of these goals listed, instead wanting to mess around in each game.

>>2113186
You are literally just saying "Make your own fun". I payed for the game so that it might entertain me, not the other way around

>he didn't pirate
sucks to be you lol

>>2110015
This.

>video comparison to show speedrunning tactics
Speedrunners don't enjoy games.
>>2110486
Congratulations, you just described Rimworld
>but spaceship
Is not a goal. It's just something you can do to read the credits.
>>2113259

Learn English, thirdie.

>there is no goal
there is literally an end goal in building the ship and being able to fight off the raids so you can get escape the Rimworld

>>2113313
>the goal is something happens and then the game ends
this is barely any different than just deciding you're done
