Dwarf golems that take over all the jobs in the fort, work twice as fast and never eat, drink, sleep or take breaks for any reason. Dwarves hate this because they can't pay rent in the new economy if they don't work. Millions are homeless and starving

Dwarven tasks can be automated to the point that a UBI is necessary from the Overseer.

Dwarfs jobs need payment, in real life coinage.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

With ingame ads, product placement, cash shop, loot boxes and paid mods only . Modders have to acquire a modding pass to publish and get 5% of the revenue. It also installs at least ten additional tool bars in your browser each time you start it.

DF pops up in bonus-content ads in other apps.

(You know the kind. Exactly the same puzzles - just with different skins - being 'failed' to persuade you that you're smarter than the hypothetical user you're seeing a replay of.  Only in DF's case it's not so simple as to just drop the lava on the shark first, and it always starts and ends with the HFS being broken into by a totally unprepared miner.)

In common with some of those ads, the end of the ad doesn't feature the name, and because nobody every intentionally clicks on anything but the ad-closer when they're just 'watching' to get a speed-up feature, so it just annoys people and gets virtually no clicks.

These game ads fraudulently promise a reward for watching the ad, then proceed to show the ad with no ad-closer at the end.  This leaves the user with no way of getting out of the ad besides force-quitting the game, thus ensuring that the player will not receive the benefit that was fraudulently promised to them.  This causes the player to hate both the game they were playing, and DF.

The ad shows footage of some kind of Dig Dug clone and is not in any way representative of DF gameplay.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

DF is advertised with inane statements like "If you can reach level 3, you are legally skilled", along with a mobile game that is nothing like DF. In some ads, DF is advertised as a choose-your-own-adventure game, with situations like "If I betray my boss, I'll get killed!", along with the choices "Murder Boss" and "Seduce Boss".
