Literally every time I've tried to play Kenshi it's just been trying to mine enough rocks to afford a single meal and then getting slaughtered by the first thing with hostile intent that passes by, beating my entire crew unconscious and then continuing to beat them until they're dead.
I'm told characters get better at fighting by fighting but there seems to be no organic way to do it and you have to refer to the wiki and cheese it and use meta-knowledge to get anywhere
Maybe I approached the game wrong but I found it to be very disappointing
Nah, if it's not for you, that's fine; definitely not the kind of thing that appeals to everyone. It might have a harder fun/difficulty curve than dwarf fortress. But it's the same kind of vibe, it's only gonna appeal if you can get fun out of that suffering.
Same. It feels similar to Caves of Qud where it's basically designed as a sandbox for That Guy in your D&D campaign who can't get it up unless he's rules lawyering some obscure magic item combo that spawns infinite prawns to drown a dragon or something.
Caves of Qud at least lets me be a psychic mutant proselytizer who enslaves people with his mind and in the name of some unnamed deity
