I think it means they produce only top notch games without any bugs.

The bugs themself are top notch.

This.

Even our bugs are cool, beat that.

A quality game might have morale effecting your little dudes, causing them to flee if it gets too low. Perhaps there might even be a couple different drives if it's a sim game, rather than a building or war game. In Dwarf Fortress, well:

critters will generally feel terror when people are trying to kill them, unless they are oddly constituted, and in order to continue fighting they need to master their fear. Failure to master emotional states leads to forced actions like running away or attacking in rage, although running away can also occur as a rational action if the critter gets to that stage. Entering a state of terror or being in a state of terror for a while also works as a stressor that can have longer-term personality changes/effects (which'll also be the rewrite for dwarf-mode happiness/tantrums etc. as we re-interpret the various stressors in the thought list there)

Plus there's non-lethal combat with contextual escalation, and players and NPCs will be able to surrender, with systems to support and interact with that concept.

Beyond quality.

Actually, if you play it backwards you'll find the easter egg.

It's funny bacause dorfs have no regard for it and mourning usually ends up with a tantrum taking even more life.

A Dwarf emerges from a mountain of flames - reaching out into the existential abyss of the world before time.
From the very depths of the abyss, this Dwarf pulls the first pick to grace Dwarf kind.
From beyond the chasms, beyond subterranean rivers, this Dwarf, the first Dwarf emerges, to found the first mountainhome. And from there, history progresses.

The Bay 12 main screen clearly indicates that all of their games are "Beyond Quality". And looking at that screen, who would argue? _{Not me!}
