DF kills processors because it doesn't know how to multi-thread and 'stuff' just builds up. Objects, filth, injuries. Cats. Sseth also is not adding weird details, game just works this way.
I think it just can't multithread because too many things depend on the status of many other things that themselves depend on others and so on. Even in other games, pathfinding as one example is always a single-thread work because it has to check for collisions not just with environment but with other entities paths
@@KibitoAkuya i also suspect that when DF was started, single thread was the standard, and it would be too much work to re-do everything to support multithreading.
@@thescottsman1996 TodayOne and ThreeToe have talked about upgrading to multi-threading among the other upgrades that the steam version is getting. They don't have a timeline on it, but it's now on the list of 'someday' things.
if DF does anything spectacularly, it is having hyper-specific stories happen. the wrestler absolutely flew into a murderous rage and murdered some poor goblin dancer with her own jawbone. that isn't even that weird in the scope of this game
Yeah Dwarf Fortress is heavy when you get into technical term. The 7 dwarfs are basically just pathfinders, they are just there to set up the basic foundation of a Fortress
One thing omitted is that your 7 dwarves are only a starter group to set up a fortress, and once properly established you get a regular influx of migrants wanting to join your colony (Your starter group is always tied to some main dwarven country and that's where the migrants usually come from), mostly dwarves but iirc at times other races can join your fortress too (you can even tame monsters and make them help around, depending on their personality)
@@anonymityaddictsanonymous5978 and apparently, i have the memory of a goldfish because I wrote that comment within minutes of watching that, holy shit
It is possible to get an extinct civilization. If theres no living dwarf nations in the world you can embark as one anyway. You get 7 dwarves, a few migrant waves because the first waves are generated. Then after that you get nothing ever again.
The elephant footage is most likely a reference to Boatmurdered, _the_ Dwarf Fortress let's play. It was played during an earlier build, when those pachyderms were far more hostile and regularly laid siege to the titular fortress, providing one of its core running motifs. Attempting to get rid of them would prove to be the local dwarves' undoing.
Actually wasnt a lets play, it was a succession game, but close enough, lets not split hairs. I listened to a dramatic reading of it with my spouse on a road trip across the country though, its special to me
Finally, one of the only TH-camrs I can watch for sudden rants about the infamous erotica author Chuck Tingle and his controversies sprouting from a Dwarf Fortress review. My night is made.
@@darkside2589 i mean you can in adventure mode (i think i don't know if that happened due to the mod or you can actually go to hell in adventure mode.) so i like to think at that moment all the demons are dead so no demons to control the goblins due to "vageta" wrestling match against the demons.
Most of the details that Sseth mentions, he likely didn't make them up. Dwarf Fortress is just that specific in details, having to rely after all quite a bit on describing what you are seeing with descriptive, specific text.
the wrestling system: "grab left leg with right hand" is the first step in a multi-step process that determines what you're actually doing. the next step having options like "put left leg in a hand-lock", and other stuff like that, which I don't remember anymore because I only played fortress mode for the past 3 or so years.
I remember one of my dwarves having his alpaca leather left shoe stolen by another dwarf. When he found out, he took the shoe and killed the thief with it, upon which the shoe became a legendary named weapon, and was subsequently used in defending against several sieges, in the end racking up something like 6 goblin kills on top of that 1 dwarven one.
thats no bug that kills all computer hardware in existence, its just because its a game with lots of complex mechanics and if you dont set limits in game to how much of every contributing factor you want then the game will happily attempt to simulate 5 million animals while your cpu goes up in flames. granted some other issues like bad usage of multi threadding and optimisation on how to handle the tasks probably contributes together with other factors but the main reason why even with a perfect code it would still happen is that the game has no limits if you dont set any and will run crazy if you let it happen. same reason why every other game has a population cap that dictates how many living creatures can be on the map at the same time to avoid grilling your pc.
@@Toskin i know, which makes it even worse, especially if they have injuries or any other modifications to the default which the game will have to process each individuelly
Mushroom are made mostly of chitin, which is made almost entirely of crosslinked sugars, so if you break down the mushrooms properly you will get sugar for fermentation
10:15 It’s more that it’s an indepth, intensive simulation that is also single threaded so it’s demanding due to computational demand. i.e. in the way that mining crypto is demanding, rather than due to “bugs”. 20:07 Yes the combat system exists to that detail. It selects body parts, tissue layers, and anatomical components (e.g. nerves, muscle, organs) to damage and injury. The hospital system does this except in reverse. There is no health bar except for undead and certain magical creatures otherwise they’d be unkillable.
... hm. I wonder if whatever magic system is being planned for the Myth and Magic update will include a rework to how undead work to remove the HP bar, maybe make it so that the less parts they have the more upkeep their operation needs, until eventually they're damaged enough that they don't produce/possess enough energy to actually _move..._

The one thing that makes me watch this react channel, as opposed to others, is the meandering digressions that end up taking up more time than the reactions themselves. Almost as if the shared watching of a familiar piece of media is only an excuse for your personality to spill and talk about some fun trivia. It might be a relaxed format, but I can still notice the quality of it. As an audience member for a few months now, I just wanted to leave some words of appreciation, really liking the thing you do.
I now want chickens and a soil bed. Ssetth added nothing, if anything he left stuff out. It's not tedious, it's genuinely amazing. You don't do the civilization building and the adventuring at the same time. you build a city, when you've had enough you retire, then when you select adventure mode you have the option to play in the world you've just been civ building in. That's the point of the world building in the beginning all your saves on a world run concurrently.
My one and only big hurdle was understanding how stairs work. How you need both up and down stairs to meet up or the dwarves won't be able to walk on them.
It's not bacteria that makes alcohol. Yeast is a fungus. You possibly can make mushrooms in to wine, so long as you have some way to break the mushroom down into sugars. For plants, amylase enzyme is present in sprouted seeds and breaks the complex starches into simple sugars the yeast can consume. If you have a particularly starchy mushroom and a source of amylase, it would be doable.
Dwarf fortress I've been playing for years now its excellent. The steam version will be paid with better GUI and graphics. But modders have some nice packs. I've played other ascii games in the past such as Nethack, so I'm used to the style.
The two game modes in DF are not played at the same time. However, the genius of this game lays in allowing you to freely switch between them in the same game world, and you will be able to interact with everything you did before in that world.
I wouldn't be particularly surprised if I heard the highest tech and defense outfits of the world kept copies of Dwarf Fortress to stress-test their designs.
Let me rephrase the literally first statement: "Why does Sseth gravitate to good games with depth and long-term value instead of worthless yearly-copied sh*t they AAA studios are feeding us because they know most younger gamers have zero clue about a game's value beyond graphics?"
Paul, funghi contain chitin, which are sugar like and could be broken down with the right enzymes. so with some evolution or bio engineering it may very well be possible to brew from them
13:50 Has nothing to do with it. It comes down to readability for myself personally, I can look at everything on the ASCII tileset and know exactly what I am looking at down to the material composition of things with just a glance. Which is incredibly important when trying to build areas like magma safe zones.
7:14 I think combat has given this man brain damage.. The point of sci fi books is to sell books. The point of sci fi awards is to act as a signal that this is a book worth read and thus buying. If awards are given to books that most people that read scifi are unlikely to enjoy the award stops being a sign of quality. It was a dumb idea to give bad books that won't sell awards. Also a cult movie/game doesn't mean its literally a cult....
All the details that Sseth mentions are what the game actually simulates... for everyone and everything... all the time... That level of detail of the simulation is one of the main reasons why it kills CPUs.
ascii/letters/text and numbers is in alot of ways better than actual "graphics" its easier and faster for you to actually read things with your eyes (although admitedly takes longer to learn) + it encourages your brain to use imagination ofcourse its not the best way for everyone to play the game, but it is something you shouldnt just discount out of the idea the idea that you believe everyone who uses it see's themselves as superior when in reality, we just got used to it and enjoy it
The advantage of using the native graphics, over tilesets, I can look at the native graphics of any version and know what's going on. The tilesets are fan made and aren't always truely complete.... and juggling between them to find one that works for you is sometimes more effort than it's worth for me.
16:00 The population is around 50-100. 50 if you control who is mating with you and you explect at lest 4 to 7 kids to come out of a pairing. You would basically have to tell people who they are matched with and control so many rights to work. 100 would be better but not perfect. The main goal would be for people to have as many kids as possible to let the kids get enough population so by 4th gen they are at a low risk of naturally keeping it in the family. the 2nd gen would be the main problem of in breeding tbh.
If you start with 7 people. 3/4 male to female split would be best. Then each female would have to have at lest 8 or more living kids. Other wise there wont be enough population to spread out the gens. Also in breeding will happen. How ever 3rd cousins are better then first cousins. Even in the USA 2nd is legal how ever you would be aiming for 3 and you would get kicked from the group if you refused to have kids. Where at 50ish you could easily stay to help do tasks even if you refuse to have kids at all. With it not being as important if males refused.
Every time I hear about this I'm reminded of a movie "The Philosophers". A teacher at University tells his students that they have to choose 10 people to bring into a nuclear bunker to "reboot" humanity. They get all bogged down in various reasonings and personal drama, and I'm just sitting there thinking that 10 people is nowhere near enough people to rebuild civilization, so why even bother? Also, you probably caught this, but this is 7 pioneers, they are later getting migrants sent by the Fortress they came from.
16:10 the point here, that 7 dwarfs are going to create an outpost. And then, it's prosperity will attract already existing dwarf population to that place. It's not like there is 7 dwarfs that are creating new civilization only with themselves.
When you're making wine you can just add sugar, the base product doesn't need to have any on its own Now, why you'd WANT to make mushroom wine is a different story
50 unrelated individuals for short term, 500 for long term, and 5,000 for indefinite viability. That said if the colony is doing well you receive a regular influx of migrants from your dwarves home nation.
14:05 I dislike tilesets because the resolution on each tile is so low, it's impossible to get nice-looking pixel representations of things. The ASCII is a lot more comprehensible. Incidentally, the steam version doesn't have this problem, and is amazing.
14:08 to be frank... traditional roguelikes use ASCII graphics, or at least it used to be most common. It's just that Dwarf Fortress is such a dense game that ASCII graphics might make it more difficult to learn even for someone who generally knows their way around traditional roguelikes. There's one strong point of ASCII when making roguelikes - you don't need ANY art skills if you are making that game alone. 34:31 it is NOT THAT bad... but it's close.
You might check out a Let's Read of Boatmurdered. I don't know if you could make a reaction video to it, but it's an entertaining listen, at the minimum.
15:30 Sseth just said that migrants arrive at the fortress. You are not making a civilization with just 7 people. You are STARTING civilization with 7 people.
hey Mhgr there is a series that i want you to react to its called tf2 the scratched universe its a great sfm series and i think you should try to watch it its really good and episode 6 of it has been released today now
Yup. It isn't overworking your PC because of errors. (Not that there aren't errors from time to time.) It's because the game tries to simulate so much of its universe that things can get out of control - and cats happen to be a lifeform that due to life cycle, being able to easily survive in a dwarf home, and breeding rate, can easily get out of control. This is actually something that's become counterintuitive, due to decades of people working out ways to cheat realistic-looking graphics and physics and embedding their results into computer infrastructure. We simultaneously overestimate how powerful the computer systems are and underestimate how complex what we're trying to do is. Just by taking a decent stab at trying to keep track of things like fluid mechanics and tissue layers, Dwarf Fortress starts doing far more work to update its universe than most games would attempt.
For good/bad zombie stuff I'd recommend Patient Zero by Jonathan Maberry, the depcition of zombie stuff is a nice change of pace, though I think the military stuff is a bit off.
4:30 "Centaurs and ogres don't even exist so you won't see any p*rn of it" Oh ye of little faith I mean most of it is drawn or 3d but there's some bizarre special effects stuff out there
24:14 well... it could just be a mushroom with some sugar naturaly grown its fantasy world surely a mushroom with some sugar in it isnt too crazy . or you could just throw some mushrooms in the vine for flawor i dont know
btwe about the rabbit thing you talk about, the thing is you can indeed make a fuck ton of them with just two of them and be stabel. because they breed so many of them in just a few years that the DNA won't overlap that much at all.
My friend is an ultralight backpacker, and we all like to make jokes about him cutting a three inch toothbrush In half or something.

But on a camping trip where the hike is only a few miles, I have a far better life in camp

You start with seven people and then immigrants join you. *5 min rant that seven people aren't enough genetic diversity without mentioning immigration 🤣
The wrestling system is a placeholder. It describes the sort of actions the Dwarves would do automatically and lets you do them in the same detail. Note that this game is still and will probably forever be an alpha version. At some point they'll make some sort of fighting system based on wrestling moves instead, but internally the PC will still connect body part A to enemy body part B.
None of what Seth told here is a dramatic flourish. The game is just that detailed. It simulates *everything*. That's why it'll melt any processor you can possibly buy and install in your home pc.
As much as I like and appreciate your analysis on cults... well, that was an unexpected commentary when I started watching reaction video on a silly review. Cheers!

its easier and faster for you to actually read things with your eyes (although admitedly takes longer to learn) + it encourages your brain to use imagination
ofcourse its not the best way for everyone to play the game, but it is something you shouldnt just discount out of the idea the idea that you believe everyone who uses it see's themselves as superior
when in reality, we just got used to it and enjoy it
The advantage of using the native graphics, over tilesets, I can look at the native graphics of any version and know what's going on. The tilesets are fan made and aren't always truely complete.... and juggling between them to find one that works for you is sometimes more effort than it's worth for me.
16:00 The population is around 50-100. 50 if you control who is mating with you and you explect at lest 4 to 7 kids to come out of a pairing. You would basically have to tell people who they are matched with and control so many rights to work. 100 would be better but not perfect. The main goal would be for people to have as many kids as possible to let the kids get enough population so by 4th gen they are at a low risk of naturally keeping it in the family. the 2nd gen would be the main problem of in breeding tbh.
If you start with 7 people. 3/4 male to female split would be best. Then each female would have to have at lest 8 or more living kids. Other wise there wont be enough population to spread out the gens. Also in breeding will happen. How ever 3rd cousins are better then first cousins. Even in the USA 2nd is legal how ever you would be aiming for 3 and you would get kicked from the group if you refused to have kids. Where at 50ish you could easily stay to help do tasks even if you refuse to have kids at all. With it not being as important if males refused.
Every time I hear about this I'm reminded of a movie "The Philosophers". A teacher at University tells his students that they have to choose 10 people to bring into a nuclear bunker to "reboot" humanity. They get all bogged down in various reasonings and personal drama, and I'm just sitting there thinking that 10 people is nowhere near enough people to rebuild civilization, so why even bother?
Also, you probably caught this, but this is 7 pioneers, they are later getting migrants sent by the Fortress they came from.
Sseth followers prefer not to be called a cult. We prefer the term "Merchant Guild Members"
16:10 the point here, that 7 dwarfs are going to create an outpost. And then, it's prosperity will attract already existing dwarf population to that place. It's not like there is 7 dwarfs that are creating new civilization only with themselves.
plump helmet shrooms probably have some base sugar because some times those can be creatures and creatures need sugar to live at some baseline.
cult classic means something that has a small but strong fanbase NOT literal cults.
It is not a Ai generated it’s what’s actually happening every single part of the dwarf is being kept track of
Thumb up for self published erotica trivia. I really needed it in my life.
I was waiting for a Dwarf Fortress review
When you're making wine you can just add sugar, the base product doesn't need to have any on its own
Now, why you'd WANT to make mushroom wine is a different story
Did I hear Dwarf Fortress?!
Seth has added no extra detail in this case do not worry
50 unrelated individuals for short term, 500 for long term, and 5,000 for indefinite viability. That said if the colony is doing well you receive a regular influx of migrants from your dwarves home nation.
14:05 I dislike tilesets because the resolution on each tile is so low, it's impossible to get nice-looking pixel representations of things. The ASCII is a lot more comprehensible.
Incidentally, the steam version doesn't have this problem, and is amazing.
14:08 to be frank... traditional roguelikes use ASCII graphics, or at least it used to be most common. It's just that Dwarf Fortress is such a dense game that ASCII graphics might make it more difficult to learn even for someone who generally knows their way around traditional roguelikes.
There's one strong point of ASCII when making roguelikes - you don't need ANY art skills if you are making that game alone.
34:31 it is NOT THAT bad... but it's close.
Now I want to see Paul react to accursed farms game dungeon cult tycoon simulator
You might check out a Let's Read of Boatmurdered. I don't know if you could make a reaction video to it, but it's an entertaining listen, at the minimum.
YOU can't make mushroom wine. Dwarves can make booze out of ANYTHING
15:30 Sseth just said that migrants arrive at the fortress. You are not making a civilization with just 7 people. You are STARTING civilization with 7 people.
hey Mhgr there is a series that i want you to react to its called tf2 the scratched universe its a great sfm series and i think you should try to watch it its really good and episode 6 of it has been released today now
Yup. It isn't overworking your PC because of errors. (Not that there aren't errors from time to time.) It's because the game tries to simulate so much of its universe that things can get out of control - and cats happen to be a lifeform that due to life cycle, being able to easily survive in a dwarf home, and breeding rate, can easily get out of control.
This is actually something that's become counterintuitive, due to decades of people working out ways to cheat realistic-looking graphics and physics and embedding their results into computer infrastructure. We simultaneously overestimate how powerful the computer systems are and underestimate how complex what we're trying to do is. Just by taking a decent stab at trying to keep track of things like fluid mechanics and tissue layers, Dwarf Fortress starts doing far more work to update its universe than most games would attempt.
dwarth fortress
Just so we’re clear
Sseth adds 0 detail to the stories, what happened is verbatim
Ultra light back packers? More weight means a better work out. Now saying light for camping is a different story because your already carrying a lot
More weight means more knee pain too
Paul give us a chicken live stream
Paul's mocking of elitist backpackers at 15:00 - based AF
For good/bad zombie stuff I'd recommend Patient Zero by Jonathan Maberry, the depcition of zombie stuff is a nice change of pace, though I think the military stuff is a bit off.
I'm pretty sure the word "cult" in Sseth's video has a different meaning.
7 grows to 100 and then some because of the waves of new dwarfs through out the building proses.
I noticed your channel from ukraine coverage; I like ur other stuff too!
4:30 "Centaurs and ogres don't even exist so you won't see any p*rn of it"
Oh ye of little faith
I mean most of it is drawn or 3d but there's some bizarre special effects stuff out there
24:14 well... it could just be a mushroom with some sugar naturaly grown its fantasy world surely a mushroom with some sugar in it isnt too crazy . or you could just throw some mushrooms in the vine for flawor i dont know
btwe about the rabbit thing you talk about, the thing is you can indeed make a fuck ton of them with just two of them and be stabel. because they breed so many of them in just a few years that the DNA won't overlap that much at all.
most really good things inspire devotion.
Nah see, besides the memes, that bit at 8:25 is literally the intro video of Dwarf Fortress
My friend is an ultralight backpacker, and we all like to make jokes about him cutting a three inch toothbrush In half or something. But, to be fair, he carried 25 pounds last time we hiked, and I carried fifty with water. He had a way better time of it. But on a camping trip where the hike is only a few miles, I have a far better life in camp
"ultra-lite backpackers" have a place in games too. They are the ones who die early because your not playing the game THEIR way....
Try out the RTS game of ants, it's called empires of the undergrowth
Can recommend, its actually easy to get into if you use peridexants lazy newb pack. Ther should be an old video on how to on my channel but i also recommend DasTactic for new players. Try it, its free

I wish I had just watched the original video
You start with seven people and then immigrants join you.
*5 min rant that seven people aren't enough genetic diversity without mentioning immigration 🤣
The wrestling system is a placeholder. It describes the sort of actions the Dwarves would do automatically and lets you do them in the same detail. Note that this game is still and will probably forever be an alpha version.
At some point they'll make some sort of fighting system based on wrestling moves instead, but internally the PC will still connect body part A to enemy body part B.
None of what Seth told here is a dramatic flourish. The game is just that detailed. It simulates *everything*. That's why it'll melt any processor you can possibly buy and install in your home pc.
Some random chicken rolling in dirt 🐔
"You can't get p0rn of Centaurs." I see you have not yet had the displeasure of coming across hentai.

As much as I like and appreciate your analysis on cults... well, that was an unexpected commentary when I started watching reaction video on a silly review. Cheers!
Well, not totally true if you take fire ants into account. Their super-world-wide-colony is basically one genoma, if was different they would be fighting for territory instead of cooperating.
4:30 Centaurs don't exist YET.
Steam version out Dec 6th with UI update
Nope, the cats just have hundreds of kittens that all have to be simulated.
Wow “ethnic cleansing” my hatred for the word has just skyrocketed.
How did this mans get talking about stock and cult in a dwarf fortress review lmao
I love how nicely you dance around the Armenian Genocide
a minute in and already going straight into cults
bad takes in cults this video i thing set refer to it like a cannon in thelitterary sense, but that aside, i would like to see more remakes of your first videos, i love the real world pararels u make with things that only are put in videos as a gag and how you expand on it with truly interesting comentary or annecdotes
is there a specific or academic term for the spiral of suspicion and hostility in a community?
I think it's called imposter syndrome
no that's thinking yourself an imposter or unworthy of praise and affection. though thank you, that was a good guess!@@icantthinkofagoodusername5564
