What else am I missing? *possible spoilers*
« on: July 09, 2014, 12:18:13 pm »

1. Don't talk to deity, game crashes.
2. Don't block, game crashes.
3. People are fun to talk to.
4. People are generally too fearful, and state things rather bluntly, and frequently.
5. Trying to change topics while being robbed doesn't work.
6. Avoid trees, many things fall from them.
7. Necromancers and their undead are much more social.
8. Goblins have become civilized.
9. Baby snatchers carry large sacks of babies from around the world.
10. Vaults are where Gods have their generated soldiers holding 'pale' weapons.
11. You can only claim certain sites, otherwise your person will simply state severe memory loss.
12. Sometimes murdering people lets you talk to yourself.
13. Sneaking is much easier.
14. Don't generate a world larger than small otherwise my computer dies.
15. Twisting weapons out of bodies doesn't work the way it used to.
16. Large piles of people congregate in rooms.
17. Starting as a dwarf means trying to escape a multilayered boredom maze.

Any other things I should look out for?

while  starting as a dwarf adventurer, you can spawn in dwarf fortresses is a gigantic multi-level maze that will take a lot of time to find an exit, you can also spawn in one in which there is no exit at all

Key word here is CAN, you can also be a hill dwarf.

Didn't had that choice on my small world unfortunately.

It wasn't an option, it just dropped me in a hill dwarf settlement.

I have been able to cycle through and had the option of selecting both. Hillocks are much easier to get out of. I took a long time wandering around and eventually travelled to a different site to get out of a fortress. I almost gave up on it.

If you spawn in an underground dwarf site, try fast-travelling, it usually works for me. If you get to the underground travel map, look for a "fortress" site, which links the underground to the surface.

The World Without Knifebear — A much safer world indeed.
regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

Ha, that's the "peasant" start, i didn't thought it would load you into a different place.
Good to know.

Dont ask about the positions of a group's forces, it seems. Anyone encountered this?

Don't retire your adventurer outside the building you started in and then unretire. If you do, you'll constantly toggle between two locations and be unable to do anything.

Goblin siegers in fortress mode are quite peaceful now. They almost don't fight back, when attacked by war dogs they just kept breaking grips, instead of trying to deal damage.

They also completely ignored a dwarf sleeping outside. Whole goblin squad walked one tile from him without disturbing him at all.
