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.
Yeah, and I'm pretty sure they know levels would have been nice because they added them (with strong limitations). They added bunkers and caves that are below ground and have multiple layers. You can freely build them, or even freely travel through them (it acts like a new map), but they exist. Hopefully the next game they're working on has levels, if it's a colony manager, because it adds a lot more variety to how you can build things.
