So, hello and welcome to Dwarf Fortress for my "I try to learn how to play this game" series. I've been trying to figure out how to play Dwarf Fortress basically forever but the UI and visuals of the old text based version pre-steam really just threw me off. With steam, I can understand how to control things with relative ease so it's the mechanics that I struggle with now and not the interface. Which is really what I prefer.

For this series, I'm going to try and not keep too much of a backlog so you have time to give advice and I can follow it in short order so I'll try not to record more than a week in advance. If you're familiar with DF though, I really would appreciate any advice or "how to play" suggestions you can give. So, I hope you enjoy and hopefully I can learn the game okay through this series.

Thanks for watching!
