Length of beard is irrelevant. Make it a living beard. Like, a colony of living creatures that live symbiotically with the dwarf creature. Functionally it wouldn't be much different than just being a beard... except, when standing still, it still squirms.

There's also been speculation that DF-dwarf beards function as their tools in all actions. Fishing, smoothing, smelting, cooking, brewing, etc. Except mining and woodcutting, I guess. This is why tools have not yet been implemented. I guess I must have read that on the forum somewhere because I can't find a 'D' article on the wiki about it.

(This isn't actually a big deal for me, just depends on how much the team is willing to reference DF/Bay12 subculture if they implement dwarves.)

Ores were leaked!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It doesn't look complete, but I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. Seems like the ores are divided into precious ores in the first column, fuel ores in the second, and crafting ores/alloys in the third. Yes, alloys seem to be in too!

I wonder what the little color bars are for and why they are only in the third column.

No no, see, this is the far more obtainable Obtainium. It's so obtainable, in fact, that it no longer has any value!

It looks like it might be a colour pallette, maybe fore items etc. made with those materials?

Ores also might be slightly different shades on different planets maybe?

Shit, you better seal that hole fast!

EDIT: Also, hilariously... "Obtainium". Isn't that by definition any substance that you can get?

By that logic, Unobtainium would be a substance you couldn't aquire. But Hollywood proves this to be false. Therefore Obtainium must be unobtainable, hence its name. Q.E.D.



Also now that I won a copy of this game I am looking considerably more forward to its release.

Obtainium is basically a parody of unobtainium for the same reasons Alexandertnt said. You cannot obtain Unobtainium.

No dude, all of the unobtanium that humans have found in in a submarine that's stuck at the bottom of the sea after exploding nuclear bombs in the mantle of the Earth.
