What was with the sudden change in art style from full bara to full David Bowie around midway through Jojo part 4? I got through like 15 chapters of part 5 before I realized Buccellati was supposed to be a boy.

life is suffering

886 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-7905 16:46

It's true: to live is to suffer. Ask anyone! Rich, poor, young, old, worldly or insular, they all have their own little demons on their backs. Perhaps they'll force a smile and tell you that it's worth it for the sake of something/one else. Perhaps they'll lower their eyebrows and tell you it's all someone else's fault. Or perhaps they'll wave their arms and say it would all be perfect if only such-and-such magic condition were the case instead. But nobody will tell you they're totally happy.

Which brings us on to the obvious question, why do we suffer? Is it as simple as the hedonic treadmill and how reward schemes in the brain evolved, or is there some deeper philosophical reason? Many would have you believe it's a universal truth of one sort or another, but I can't help but feel the problem is more complicated and nuanced than anyone cares to admit.

Suffering can bring about positive change. For instance, studying is not particularly fun, but the sense of bettering oneself through learning can give a sense of satisfaction and understanding that lasts far longer than any temporary discomfort. Similarly, an agoraphobe may find it painful to have to force themselves outside, but overcoming this frees them from the subtler pain of being trapped in their own home.

Some people suffer more than others. How does one minimise suffering? Buddhist philosophy seems to advocate not suffering by simply not being attached to things in the first place (though I'm aware that's a rather crude interpretation). I'm quite sure that's true, but surely to give up attachment to what you love is a form of suffering in itself.

So what, then? Should we tolerate our suffering as an unavoidable unpleasantry? Should we seek to escape it at all costs? Or should we embrace it as something that ties us to the world, and a force of change? I'm not sure either.

Those succession games seem fun. I've read Boatmurdered and a couple of others before. It tempted me to try Dorf Fortress, but all those characters proved too much. I also spent too much time looking through the history of the world.

There was a dark fortress full of goblins who apparently never worked. There were a lot of children snatchers who kidnapped humans and dwarves alike, and exploited them and used them for entertainment: every year there was a wave of murders, young adults were killing each other in Battle Royale.

I suppose it was actually just the way sorting of events works, but it looked pretty damn impressive, because this happened for centuries. However, the tradition was slowly dying out as the list of deaths became shorter towards the end of world generation.

You should definitely give Dwarf Fortress another chance, it's well worth it! Honestly, the first time I tried it I was overwhelmed and gave up as well; it was only when I came back to it a few months later that I managed to get a fortress off the ground (or into the ground?) at all.

Though it has a very steep learning curve, it's actually not that difficult once you know how to do things. In fact, it's quite easy to just make a fortress completely sealed off from the surface, and be self-sufficient on farming produce. But it isn't fun. That's why players tend to deliberately go to war with the elves, send untrained soldiers to kill horrifying monsters in the deeps, flood the world with lava and so on.

As for the dark fortress, if I recall, goblins choose their leaders based on whoever kills all the other candidates. Kidnapped children from other civilisations, once they grow up, become members of the goblin civilisation and can compete for leadership. I've heard occasionally they actually wipe out the goblins in the fighting, so you end up with a goblin fortress inhabited entirely by humans and dwarves. It's still nowhere near the craziest thing I've seen happen in world generation.

Anyway, if you're feeling tempted, there's some tutorials here, and the forums are always very helpful to beginners. Have fun, and don't read anything marked "massive spoilers"!

I've tried DF a couple of times. But I felt like pseudographics coupled with a new (to me) management system were a high wall — and I wasn't patient enough to climb over it. I used to play telnet://nethack.alt.org before, so I tried the adventure mode. But I couldn't find an exit from a dwarven fortress where I spawned. Stole some decent looking gear from rooms, took a bit more in case I can sell it, got slowed down and gave up.
