I love this game so much! I bought it for myself and ended up getting my family hooked too. With my 200+ hours, I think its safe to say I've played it a ton lol.
One of my favorite things, but also most hated at the same time, is how quickly you can go from prosperous to destroyed. One raid or one winter and you can be just crawling by when you were plentiful.
Another one of my favorite things is the whole 'Health' system. How people can lose arms or legs, for example, in battle, and you can create these bionic or prosthetic pieces to replace it. I almost get excited when a colonist gets butchered!
I also love the replayability value. No two games are ever the same and it really keeps you on your toes, even with my surplus of hours I still see new things I need to learn how to handle.
Anyways, I love this game and truly recommend.

Update: still playing a over year later with 700+ hours. Still one of my favorites.
