It does. I don't see the ASCII code anymore. Just dwarf beards in blond and brunette, there is a dog, here a plump helmet.

Joke aside, it really does get better. Usually when I start smoothing rock pathways, things really come together.

I need to squirrel myself away for a weekend and get stuck in. I know I'll love it because it's the kind of game I enjoy - the entry point feels a bit higher than I'd expected though!

Rock and stone! It got way easier for me, when I started to just rely on plump helmets. Dwarfs would eat them raw and drink them brewed. That got me over the first winters.
