dwarf fortress is still kinda unplayble at times without dfhack scripts. spend too much time down in the caverns and the nature aggro system kicks in and pretty soon there's hundreds of invisible enemies dragging down your fps to a painfully slow crawl because the game just has to keep track of their sightlines, a calculation that also inevitably grows more complicated as the map fills up with trees.

also the farming system is a bit silly, you only need like half a hectare of land to feed a small city.
