Dwarf Fortress update cuts food prices and brings dwarves back into the mine

"Dwarf Fortress" is a management game, which is about operating an underground fortress full of dwarfs.You might think that the best way to make money in a game like this is to dig out gems and metals and forge high-quality weapons and jewelry, but that is not the case – the real wealth comes from food production.Game developers have just slashed the value of food and have apologized (quite jokingly) for destroying everyone’s food-based economic system.

Version 51.06 was launched this week and, among other changes, “reduces the value of the foods that have been made”.In other words, food made by dwarf chefs no longer sells for a lot of money as before."We also apologize for undermining your food-based economic system in this update. I didn't expect so many of you to run this way," Kitfox Games, a publisher who helped the graphical version of Dwarf Fortress to land on the Steam platform.

In the comments on Steam about this patch notes, some people were disappointed that the food prices were getting lower, but overall, the community seemed to think it was a good change.The value of a prepared food is based on the value of a single ingredient and the quality of the production, and these factors combined can lead to an outrageously high price.The relevant forums of "Dwarf Fortress" are full of interesting stories, such as the value of a pile of roasted vegetables accounts for 10% of the fortress's wealth, or the value of a roasted crocodile egg is comparable to the ransom of a king.

For some time, some players have been calling for lowering food prices.Many Dwarf Fortress hardcore players have vowed not to sell food at all, believing that making money by selling food is a cheating act that undermines the balance of the game and undermines the challenge of making money.The long-term impact of this weakening remains to be seen, but hopefully this will bring business-minded dwarves back where they should go: in the mine, not in the kitchen.
