I have more time in rimworld but play both. Sometimes DF is nice when you can’t be arsed to care about the people you manage and don’t want to micromanage the way you really have to in rimworld sometimes. Plus there is no storyteller in the rimworld sense. You get more raids if you live near people who don’t like you and I feel like that makes a lot of sense.
Its not like hitting the fleshy mass of your body or even an appendage though, it pretty much pierced the ear instantly then had nothing to transfer it’s energy into
