Good job, guys... :\

You have succeeded in essentially ending my life.

My name is Shaq, and I'm addicted to Dwarf Fortress.

I've been trying to play the game for so long but quit because nothing is really explained in full detail and I wasn't really sure how to play. But lately everybody has been posting with SOMETHING about DF in their blog, and I found a tutorial to start me off and let me begin to understand the basics, so now I'm hooked.

I hate you all.

:'(

Also, tutorial's here if any other DF Noobs want to sell yourself to dwarf slavery.

Dwarf Fortress is almost as cool as Minecraft. Almost.

Was it me that posted about it? It was me, wasn't it. Yeah, it was me. :<

Dwarf Fortress seems to be the new World of Warcraft.

Now we compare crack to DF (DwarfFox DesertFortress) instead of WoW.

I'm not sure if I could just stare at symbols for that long, I think I'll just stick to minecraft.
There are texture packs for DF that make the game look tons better.

Texture packs? Heresy! A true dwarfer knows that texture packs are only good for pantywaist-ed foppish dandies! A true dwarfer uses ASCII chars if he knows what's good for him!

This is awesome. I was in the same position at the beginning of this summer but I got distracted by NetHack. Haven't really played since then.

On the other hand, I went on to ascend nethack for the first time ever. Took me two years but I finally made it! So I guess what I'm saying is I'm glad I quit DF but I'd like to get back into it soon

Nethack is really fun but I can never play it for too long until my attention span is ripped away. I'll try minecraft after I'm done getting dwarf-raped. :P
