This lives in my brain, what a philosophy:
There is no internal end point, single goal, final Easter egg or "You Win!" announcement in roam:Dwarf Fortress . Therefore, eventually, almost every fortress will fall. The only ones that don't tend to be very conservative and very boring—and what fun is that? Thus, DF = losing ∧ DF = fun ⇒ losing = fun, and that's okay! It's a game philosophy , so embrace it, own it, and have fun with it!
Dwarf Fortress is Type 2 Fun , Making Mistakes can be good if you enjoy it and learn from it.
