New dwarven thoughts
« on: February 11, 2010, 12:32:07 am »

Going over the new updates, it makes me wonder what kind of new thoughts are going to exist in the game now. Will dwarves get unhappy thoughts from watching a particularly queasy operation in the new healthcare system? Will they get happy thoughts for watching Gobs get slaughtered in the arena?

List the new thoughts you think will be in the next update.

Not that kind of arena, unforunately. It's a separate "mode" enabled in the init which lets you test various creatures against each other without having to gen a world/etc.

Toady, how much of DF is inspired by Labyrinth? Is Armok actually David Bowie? Because that would simultaneously be disturbing and awesome.

I'm imagining a benign creature what's shaped like a tube with fluffy crab legs and the snout of a cow.   It radiates an aura of apathy.

"Was worried about being treated by inexperienced physician lately".
Might also have gradations like "very inexperienced" and "totally inexperienced".
