He, I think I might have 'slept' rather than 'lurked' :) Afair I tried it out first time 10-13y ago, but not sure really.
Anyway, too bad it wasn't also for the classic, but it looks really nice https://kitfoxgames.itch.io/dwarf-fortress If I may ask, Is the remastered version mainly a gfx/sfx layer on op of the classic version, or is it something completely new ? I guess the classic themes have gotten pretty good by now, so they'll have to do, but It would be neat to be able to later 'upgrade' to a more pro interface if I get hooked this time.
The controls are slightly different and there's little bits of QOL over the classic version too, but yeah it's basically the same game and the developers are working hard to keep them at pace with one another for people interested but not willing to commit to the $30. The remaster also has an ASCII mode which I like for whenever I wanna play a little old-school. :)
