If Dwarf Fortress was the real world...
« on: May 22, 2009, 07:28:07 am »

Let's play a little game. It's pretty simple. You simply finish the sentence "If Dwarf Fortress was the real world..."
Example:

... Magikarp would be the strongest Pokémon.

if dwarf fortress was real

... we'd cancel all of our jobs, including eating and drinking and going to sleep, just because one small bird came into our LoS

... We'd use the perpetual motion machine to launch Earth into SPACE and colonizing Alpha Centauri in 7 years, with 7 short, beardy men dwarves JUST BECAUSE WE CAN.

If Dwarf Fortress as the real world.. I would have the best excuse to escape reality by playing videogames all day long, when not at work.

...I would have a beard and drink booze.

...all colonizations would be done by 7 people.

...rats and mice would randomly teleport.

...the planet would collapse from digging too much ground out.

...we would have mined out the core for easy glass.

...bauxite would be the single most expensive mineral.

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.
