>Insults dev on their forums (where they're rather beloved) because player has apparently never played a roguelike before. And also because the player is too lazy to search for the readily available mod that converts pretty much everything to a mouse-based interface.

There's a mod for that?

[TealNinja]

considering the level of detail.

Complete lack thereof is considered a level now?

Yeah, I recall one that moves all functionality to a radial menu. Trying to find it.

ed: I believe this is it.

Considering the maker can't even figure out how to make a mouse useful

And that's how you effectively kill your own thread.

The thread was still useful for a WTF moment, though.

[DungeonJerk]

This about sums it up.

If the game gave us feedback it would be things like "Jesus God, you just made your miner dig himself a hole he can't get out of, and then designated a stairway that doesn't reach him. Are you a complete idiot?" and "You forgot that there are not one, not two, but five entrances to your fort and the three you didn't line with traps are closest to the most recent goblin ambush. You're a total retard."

Also, "If you don't make them cut trees, you won't have charcoal, and you won't be able to make any metal goods. Dumbass."

The quality of the feedback in the game absolutely reflects the nature of the game and the way it is meant to be played. Remember, losing is fun, and the best way to lose is to learn by doing.

Your dude is clearly unable to path to food that is not forbidden.

*cough alpha game cough

People still use this crappy excuse of excuse?

[Masta Crouton]

yeah, an unfinished game having some issues is totally unheard of.

>Complains about it on forums without looking for an answer on the wiki or in the bug reports.

No.

>Systematically denies every suggestion given, even though clearly not knowing what they're talking about.

No. I said "No" to those as in "No, this did not solve it," rather than "No, HERP DERP I WILL NOT TRY THIS LOLZ." Try applying a modicum of thought before your knee-jerk defensive reaction.

>player has apparently never played a roguelike before.

Wrong again.

And also because the player is too lazy to search for the readily available mod that converts pretty much everything to a mouse-based interface.

No. I was not talking about the mod.

Your dude is clearly unable to path to food that is not forbidden.

Wow, try reading at least the first post. No.

So do you actually have any intention of telling us how your fortress is designed, what burrows you have set, what jobs you have set, and what mechanisms are in place that would prevent any movement so we can have even a miniscule ability of actually troubleshooting your specific issue, instead of being forced to rely on a set of fixes that work for most people who have this problem?

[Kofthefens]

You complain about the game not giving you enough feedback, then you don't give us enough feedback to help?
