After 15 years of busted marksdwarves, Dwarf Fortress creator Tarn Adams says archers will finally refill their ammo 'instead of leaping over walls and clubbing people with their crossbows'

Just trust me when I say this is a really big deal.
I highly recommend the noclip documentaries on YouTube about Dwarf Fortress. It is a highly wholesome and insightful series.
For less insightful stuff, may I recommend Boatmurdered, the chronicle of a succession game (one person plays a year and then passes the same file to someone else) of Dwarf Fortress:

This has no bearing on my life whatsoever but a developer releasing a QoL update after 15 years is pretty cool and great marketing.
This doesn't invalidate your point, but DF is still under active development. The game has been worked on consistently since the early aughts.
Check out Nethack. Been worked on since the 80’s.
Nethack is open source and maintained by the community though, unlike DF which is still under Tarn the original dev.
I dunno, I kinda wish he'd fixed it at some point ten years ago
Can I still employ a blind marksdwarf to Vayne ult behind enemy lines?
