If EA had the rights to dwarf fortress the focus of developement would turn to graphics, wich would mean all important ui features that are deemed to complicated get hidden behind shiny graphics.
After this the game features would be streamlined, or in other words anything then isn't easy to use or poses significant challenge to the player will be scrapped.
At this point DF would be shiny graphics with no game features as all of them have been scrapped. From this point on new features would be implementned more in line with the casual player EA mentality.
When the game would be finished, it would have no resemblence with DF as it is now except for the fact that it's about dwarves who mine and build stuff.
In other words, I shudder to think about it.
And yeah, I really miss the old Resident Evil games as well. After playing 5 I just had the urge to erase the memory by playing through the original Resident Evil. Man that game was good.
I'd almost think the story and characters were purposely designed to be daft and retarded so that any idiot looking to shoot shit can relate to the incredibly simple characters and plot.
God they raped Chris Redfield so bad, but I guess there was something funny about having him appear with thrice the biceps size and only half the brain then how I knew him, in a very sad way.
