So what would make a good Let’s Play? I could do Dwarf Fortress; It’s been a while and I wouldn’t mind some FUN! I’ve got X-com 2, but I’ve barely scratched the surface… That said a clueless ironman run could be entertaining… Though it’d probably end up getting all of my friends killed before I get the chance to included them all. Another possibility is Rimworld, which is kind of like Dwarf Fortress, but in space, and more firmly 2d.
Some outliers:
- Tropico 4 (I’ve played the first few, but haven’t tried this version yet)
- Cities: Skylines (this could be interesting if I can find a nice map of bburg, or import one?)
- Banished (somewhere between Cities and Dwarf Fort)
- Massive Chalice (the “genetics/bloodline” nature of this game makes me kind of uncomfortable)
Alternatively instead of Let’s Play I could do Choose Your Own Post and either start a new adventure, or revive the stories where they stalled out. I’m also open to other suggestions if you’ve got ’em.

The only one of these I’ve played is Cities: Skylines, and doing a map based on here would be iffy. The game really wants you to work toward a metropolis, not a small town with a lot of government property. I found that citizens started demanding more and more features and amenities I couldn’t manage without making things bigger and bigger, and their happiness fell as their expectations rose. It’s a fine challenge if you want to take the current town as a base and expand from there, but if this is your end goal I think you’ll be disappointed.
Well, I’m not too worried about the “city” outgrowing bburg in size… in fact it might be kind of interesting to see what happens with unmitigated growth.
