Experts often have more wrong ideas about their field than normal people.
It's because they need to justify their job, so they can't just give the obvious answers that everyone knows.
They need hard-to-understand ideas, and nothing is harder to understand than nonsense.
This issue arises with ethicists, art critics, sociologists about society, literature professors, food critics, psychologists, fashion experts, historians, and so on.
This happens in fields where the experts don't produce results which are obviously objectively better or worse.
Academics, moralists, and fashion - not engineers or commercial media makers or pianists.
This is a problem with accepting the judgment of any group of experts. They have an inherent conflict of interest.
A thoughful outsider may have less detailed knowledge, but also may be more directly seeking the truth - and that can matter more.
So apparently this is what someone at Valve thinks RimWorld is about... http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FlMda1oaMAAp7uo.jpg
@Pardnerrr I wouldn't say *wrong* exactly... :p
We considered it! It would be bugged if we didn't do some tweaks to make this work cleanly, I think.
We could possibly make the situation a bit more explicit though.
Rimworld does not save log files indefinitely, but every once in a while mods or game bugs out and log file keeps growing. Generally you don't need to worry about it.
The game has protection to prevent oversized log files. Mods have to circumvent the protection to produce logs this size.
@wobbier I've never said it would never go on sale; quite the opposite in fact! Here I am 6 years ago:

@wobbier Yes it's one of those mythical paraphrased quotes from me that someone made up and just gets passed around endlessly now.
Ho ho ho, merry RimWorld Christmas to all!
It's been a wonderful year and I'm thankful for everyone's support - fans, modders, and the great devs I get to work with.
I am wishing the best to everyone, especially those who are lonely or sick this Christmas. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fky0Ks3acAA7GIk.jpg
RimWorld has begun its first 20% off sale on Steam!
The first two expansions are also 10% off each.

@mrbubxd @LudeonStudios Hey there, it is localized, you can see the discount is 62% right now. See the list at:
https://steamdb.info/app/294100/
Our localized prices are actually lower than what Valve officially recommends!
Congrats to @Bay12Games and @KitfoxGames for the Dwarf Fortress release!
Can't wait to dive in and strike the earth. Hoping for an entertaining tantrum spiral or similar.
One way Ludeon attracts capable game creators is by making a game that's really fing cool to work on.
Super interesting and open-ended game systems, very high ratio of creative output to dev effort.
Fun interview https://twitter.com/SuweyStreams/status/1598537272898752513Did you miss it when I interviewed @TynanSylvester with @FG_squared for two hours during the Hot Potato Charity Event finale??? You can check it out here: https://t.co/YCuTy7IWBm

Hey guys. We investigated this issue today and found that it seems to be caused by the mod HugsLib. The related error message is

I tweeted this to Tynan and he said that they will look into it - tbh idk where bug reports actually go lol
See my root-level comment on the cause.
Hi, thanks for buying from us.
Are you running on Steam or are you running the DRM-free download? If you're comfortable with it, it would be best to register all your products on Steam via rimworldgame.com/getmygame - then, just install and play on Steam as usual.
Sometimes Steam breaks files and fails to fix them even on verify. In these cases you need to go into the actual file explorer and delete all the game files and files for all expansions to force it to re-download everything.
You can email [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) for help.
