May 2025

Download 500 mods, try to use them, complain it loads slow, play anyways, 10/10

March 2025

RimWorld stands as humanity's most sophisticated empathy simulator—not because it creates empathy, but because it systematically erodes it. You begin caring about your colonists as people and end seeing them as walking resource containers. The game's genius isn't in its mechanics but in how it transforms you into exactly the kind of ruthless survivor it simulates.

March 2025

The game is worth waiting 30 minutes each time you open it because of all the mods you enabled.

Nov. 2024

This game taught me a lot about cultural acceptance, and the importance of working together to build something lasting, significant, and beautiful. Then it taught me to hate everything, and everyone.

Oct. 2024

a good game if you want something quick and easy, but the replayability is a bit lackluster, becoming a bit boring after only 1300 hours
