Last I modded, they just plug in graphics using the hooks already in the code, there still isn't a way to make a graphical frontend that doesn't start with a non-graphical compiled binary. It's much, much better, and if you get a large graphics pack the zoom is beautiful, but it's still janky(see the "dirt" graphics used in sentences in place of periods, scroll through a list of names and see all the graphics for levers and such, then watch a screw pump work).
Also, I've played Nethack, and the graphics were not a problem for me, because Nethack and its graphics are nicely tuned together. DF and its graphics… are not.

Last I played, noone in DF ever gets drunk in the slightest. Even creatures that aren't [ALCOHOL_DEPENDENT]. To me the lack of alcohol looks more like "hung over" than Bad Temper(which makes no sense, but this is DF). Although, I'm a "nice boss" in these games… it's possible the Happiness effect is considerable, just not on par with the effect of a Legendary dining hall or a variety of Superior roasts. |
