Why I like the direction of development of URW I compared it to other RogueLike development team DCSS (Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup),
Notoriously for bad development direction.

As I wrote down the list, I was pleasantly surprised that he was not mentally twisted during 30 years of development,
and keep making good old URW for us. Thank you Sami!



Unreal world Sami :
1. I deleted chain mail because it was historically incorrect.
2. Player not going to eat human corpse unless they are in fetal situation.
3. I overhauled most of rituals so they are like real rituals rather than instant magic.
4. Sauna! Because it's just a bestest of all



DCSS team :
1. I want to pretend that I participated in the project, so I deleted a hunger meter and such.
2. I've never been beyond 3 runes and never made it with Orb of Zot, but I know Pandemonium needs to be overhauled.
3. Seldom used transmutation magics before, but I know hydra-form is better than Statue-form. (This instantly became a meme in Korean community)
4. I want to play as Pepe so I made frogkinds.
5. Centaurs are boring, so I replace them my Mary Sue species PaLeNtOnGa
6. So many male characters, so I "sterilized" them into female. Take that patriarchy.

↑ Includes an exaggeration, but it's all true.

Re: What's Going On In Your Unreal World? Moment of silliness:
Eagle owl hits capercaillie

(Didn't have anything on me except sword, broad knife, waterskin and the recently killed bird to chuck at the capercaillie.. the spot was too good to go scrounge for sticks or rocks)

Re: Getting food long term Spirits can be little finicky.
But if you keep up on daily sacrifices, of fresh fish, it can be sustainable. Just remember that cooked or preserved fish doesn’t count as fresh fish to appease Ahti or other keepers of watery game.

If you can hunt down a bear or an elk, trading roasted cuts for smoked or dried meat or fish is good way to preserve your “catch” longer.
If you do a spring start, collecting some withes at initial camp will let you dry any caught game outside of the shelter if done before end of Swidden.
If Seedtime rolls in, and you catch large game during first year: head over to village and smoke meat there. Hang around and visit every other day. Load up the fireplace with couple slender trunks or 3-4 blocks of wood.

If you struggle getting any game, then consider making crafts to trade for food. Bowls and ropes used to be pretty decent, but in last few versions/years, I feel that new characters should first trade for some yarn, then make loop snares, and most definitely fishing rods (wooden fish hooks work great)

If you can’t get game or can’t find a village, then… Well, start a new character, and use “C” during world gen to see that your starting location is close-ish to cultural area.
