641: You know that his 'Real Life' thing everyone seems to talk about is just some flashy game with boring old 3D graphics and that DF is way superior to it in every single way, including graphics.

Twenty seconds after the collapse, 14 dwarves hit the ground simultaneously.
EDIT: make that 15. Not sure what took that last one so long.

It is dwarf fortress but without fps slowdown (unless you suffer from occasional epilepsy, that really feels weird.).

645. You know this:
bag is male. kidney is female.
(I didn't before since I don't use tilesets, but I'm not likely to forget now that it has been pointed out!)

I've tried "Real Life". It's a lot like DF: highly complex, wide-open sandbox-style gameplay, no documentation, completely free. I'm not sure, but I think it's also in alpha. Sure it has these weird 3d graphics, but you get used to it. There's one really big problem though--it's not nearly as easy to modify the raws.

So it turns out that dumping magma on skeletons is either a really bad idea or maybe like the best idea ever.

646 And you keep trying to modify the raws to RL

649: your boss/teacher/parent/significant other knows the specific three minute timeslots between the 3 hour breaks to ask you when to do something

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.
