Dwarf Fortress is the only game in the world that fully emulates an entity on the very brink of complete insanity.
DF as a game is the equivalent of sitting down and having a conversation with the homeless guy in the park who screams about flying children trying to rip his skin off.

Can I sig :D

"DF as a game is the equivalent of sitting down and having a conversation with the homeless guy in the park who screams about flying children trying to rip his skin off. "

I'm fine with it, but I don't know if there is some ethical code where only one person can sig the same phrase. Supposing ordak doesn't mind, I don't see why not.  :D

I once heard DF described along the lines of "like The Sims, except instead of buying a couch, everyone dies."

On the item is an image of Ngom Fishsin the goblin and a alligator in mountain goat leather. The alligator is striking down Ngom Fishsin. The artwork relates to the killing of the goblin Ngom Fishsin by a alligator in Crueljoy in The Mechanical Spine in the late autumn of 11 during Kaguskok, "The Crazy Assault".

Dwarf Fortress... defining it could well be a small gamemode.

Isn't that the definition of the Sims anyway?
