An upcoming update for RimWorld changes its engine from Unity to the devs' in-house Waylith Engine, speeding the game up without breaking community mods.
I’ve gotten some good mileage out of it with no DLCs, just wish it had layers like Dwarf Fortress, doesn’t even have to be as many but it’s weird that you can’t at least build vertically for a few levels. I believe it’s possible to pirate the DLCs as well, but I don’t really know enough about pirating software safely to try that. I’m certainly not paying another $60 to get them.

Rimworld is literally one of the easiest games to pirate, especially for how expensive it is.
It’s just a directory, and it’s only a couple hundred megabytes compressed.
And despite all that, I still bought it in the end. All of it. It’s just that good.
And here I am, a living Rimworld commercial. And all because I pirated something.
