	Many reviews have complained that ideoligions nail you into a role and it's difficult to change.

If you want a vanilla experience you still can have that, or you can go full nihilist and have an ideoligion where literally any evil shit you can think of is ok or encouraged. A bigger issue with the DLC is that it buffs the fucking mechanoids [[RAGE\|yet again]], giving them a termite unit with thump cannon that knocks down the thickest of walls like they weren't there. It also gives tribals and pirates breach axes, as if their previous ways of breaking through walls weren't enough. <s>Git gud.</s>		Many reviews have complained that ideoligions nail you into a role and it's difficult to change.

	Things like blood loss, organ damage, paralysis, ageing dementia and Alzheimer's, and blinding are all handled (with variable levels of realism). Age is not just a number in Rimworld, and young pawns are often more valuable, if less skilled, than older ones. Losing a kidney may not have much effect until it comes to recovering from the [[Death_Guard\|plague]]. Sometimes you may be left with difficult choices, such as euthanising your colony's best crafter because they got brain damaged or their spine or pelvis shattered. It's about the story, remember!

	Enemy pawns are treated no differently by the game. A glance into any given Rimworld community will discuss frequently about the war crimes they perform on every playthrough, and with good reason. You can capture any person from any faction (either visitors or raiders) and they're completely at your mercy. Working them to death into labor camps is scratching the surface. Using them as guinea pigs for your fledgling surgeons to practice on is a common activity, as is harvesting their organs. Hell, a common tactic for pirate prisoners is to replace a hand or foot with a cheap prosthetic and let them go: in the event they come back, their movement is impaired and they're even more of a burden during an attack. And player can get real creative on how their living quarters are, such as [https://old.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/bbftio/does_locking_my_prisoners_in_the_same_room_as/ filling their prison cells with a hundred cats and oceans of beer], so they're constantly vomited on by inebriated felines, and the overall mess made of vomit, blood, and generic "dirt" will drive them insane several times over. Keep that door locked.		Enemy pawns are treated no differently by the game.

Keep that door locked. There is incentive for treating prisoners nicely though, as releasing a prisoner in good health will improve relations with the prisoner's faction once they leave the map, provided he isn't a pirate as they remain hostile to the bitter end. Alternatively, you can convince a prisoner to join your side, at the expense of a relations hit.

	Yup, a game like this isn't immune to skub. For a while it was banned in Australia, and could not bought there legally any more "due to depictions of matters of sex (btw only Rimjobworld mod has sex), [[drug]] misuse or addiction, crime, cruelty, violence or revolting or abhorrent phenomena in such a way that they offend against the standards of morality, decency and propriety generally accepted by reasonable adults." That's just how fucking <i>good</i> it is. Fortunately for us, the developers were able to negotiate with Australia and bring it back for sale.		Yup, a game like this isn't immune to skub.

	The most ''likely'' reason was the use of in-game drugs, which are pretty well modeled all things considered. In retrospect it's hard to see what the fuck the problem was: they ''do'' provide temporary bonuses but saddle your colonists with health and other issues (like tolerance and addiction) down the line. Use of hard and [[Dark_Eldar\|combat drugs]] can (and almost always will) make life nasty brutish and short. Even "Smokeleaf", the game's hybrid analogue to marijuana and tobacco, can potentially result in asthma or even lung cancer if smoked too often, and stoned pawns having piss-poor productivity, using too much food, [[FATAL\|fainting in really inopportune moments such as in a freezer or near a fire]] or during a raid, and even in rare cases [[What\|starve to death immediately]]. TLDR; If the game sees you using drugs to try to get around a shitty life for your colonists, it will punish you for it. Even if you're using drugs for noble reasons (namely boosting your best surgeon's dexterity with combat stims to increase the odds of pulling off a difficult surgery, or cheering up a really depressed patient with a joint or beer), you have to weigh the risk of complications down the line, ''especially'' if the colonist in question is quite old and/or missing an organ or two.

	Unfortunately, from Australia's perspective, the "temporary bonuses" bit caused them to jump the gun and kick the game out. This was not the first time Australia has complained over drug use in games, as [[Fallout#Fallout_3\|Fallout 3]] also came under fire in Oz for depicting Morphine usage, and was only granted access when the offending drug was relabeled Med-X prior to release, a name that stuck in later releases. In fact, the Rimworld community used the Fallout 3 example, among other games Australia blocked because of drug usage, to justify a re-classification. [[Just As Planned\|It worked]], and Rimworld went from RC (Refused Classification, a de facto ban) to R18+.
