I was consumed by df for about six months to the detriment of everything else.

I’ve never been able to go back, but I always remember it as the best gaming I ever did.

Df is a piece of art comparable to anything created by mankind to date. In a 1000 years I believe df will be compared with Mozart and the Mona Lisa.

And hopefully they’ve improved the efficiency... I want my descendants to be able to build that 1000 dwarf fortress!

> 1000 dwarf fortress!

What did the sons of today’s processors ever do to you, for you to hate them so?
