For real though, the subterranean animal people civ entity needs some much needed love.

Didn't Toady mention in a devlog/fotf reply that the subterranean animal people will have some kind of revamp for the Steam release? (Or maybe I'm just imagining?)

He did! I believe he implied that he is gonna add variables to make them appear more on the map, repopulate etc
along with some changes to forgotten beast behavior!


Also kobolds are best! They're just little guys going around stealing socks and trying to not get eaten
Truly the most enlightened race

I think, actually that the update to subt. Animal people will include them raiding the player fort, like underground ambushes.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

Dwarves are GIGA CHADS who don't mind dying.

My opinion for humans is differenced depending on its relations with me. Good Humans trade and respect, D**khead evil humans Launch sieges and try to kill me.

Elves are a Huge annoyance in any look of the game, trade, war, trees, wood trading...

Its just an example.
Dwarves are obviously the best.  This is, after all, Dwarf Fortress.

Kobolds definitely need to be fixed, though.  I am tired of them all dying in worldgen.

As for elves?  *spit*

I doubt I'm alone in that opinion, those knife-eared bastards.

Dwarfs are endearingly Stupid, Humans are a bit odd, Elfs are too pathetic to hate, and Our thoughts on Goblins are unprintable.
