DF has only one ending:

Losing

It's Fun.

Not to be a smartass but one of the reasons I like DF is because when it ends, it's in a diffrent way.

"Hmm...was that bauxite or what...?"
"Nope..it wasn't bauxite"
-Everything dies to very slow moving magma.-
Etc...it's one of the things I like about the game.
Event driven games < Dwarf Fortress

When you quote, don't remove the person that actually said it

But yes DF have different ways of getting to the same end of Fun.

Yeah, it messed up...I didn't know who made the quote so i just removed one of the names (Couldn't be stuffed fixing ) It's late here.

That is technically 7 more endings that DF has....

Death by magma
Death by goblin invasion
Death by goblin ambush
Death by human invasion
Death by drowning
Death by wildlife
Death by skeletal wildlife
Death by zombies
Death by fish
Death by tantrum spiral
Death from old age/no migrants
Death from berserk champion
Death from mass cave-in
Death by hidden Fun(3 versions)

And the more embarrassing

Death by elf invasion
Death by kobold raid

Don't say DF has just one ending, just because they all mean the game is over it doesn't mean it's the same ending..And even then it's not the true end, you can start a new fort..Even reclaim your old fort,

 DF doesn't need a sequel, DF is it's own sequel.

I think you missed my point

I think you missed his maybeeee.
I thought he didn't mean it like that, more a "It's a never-ending story." if you want it to be.

That is what I assumed he meant

-is confuzzled-
I was allso going to say that I may have confused what you said, but i'm to tired at this moment.
Well..this is a pointless argument..
You can end DF, but every-time is most likely going to be a different way...it's not scripted...where as Bioshock 2 is. Argh now I've forgotten the original point and everything. Time to sleep...

When I turn on the computer in the morning, DF turns on. It dosn't turn off until 2PM at night. DF is the bane of my life, like cocaine for a drug-addict. Except, much more deadly.

Plus, I just noticed I'm viewer 1337. . .that has got to be an omen.

[XSI]

Just to clarify, I mean that a game/world of DF can last as long as you want it to if you want, and fort 2 can be the sequel to fort 1. Just like Silent hill 1 is one story(fort), Silent hill 2 was another story(Second fort after the first ended), and then Silent hill 3 continued with the original story(Reclaimed fort 1)


So, yeah, I admit it was also late at night when I wrote that, so I might not have made/make a lot of sense.

DF forums are addicting too, making me post past midnight.

Dwarf Fortress: Losing is fun, Evil is good, and the first hit is free... Actually, all the hits are free... Dang, no wonder it's so addicting.

sigg'd for great justice

Edit: or not, stupid line span limit ;-;

Yeah, I haven't played other games much since I found Dwarf Fortress a few weeks ago.  I've still got my unfinished save of Dragon Age, which is currently in the Dwarf Fortress.

DF eats up most of my time. It's nearly as bad as the Sims was for me about devouring time. I still play other games, when I'm frustrated with DF because my fortress exploded into an orgy of violence and death, with a sprinkling of fire and magma, but I always come back. It's almost like an abusive boyfriend sort of thing, except he's only violent when he drinks, and he only drinks when he's angry.... I lost my point somewhere in there....
