Hmm. These things are all the same, but the link is appreciated nonetheless.

Actually I haven't seen this article yet, so thanks for the link!

PS. "The hope is that adventure mode will look more or less like a reasonably intricate RPG, with some interesting things going on with dynamic plots and ordering subordinates to do things. The fortress should be more closely related to the outside world, through war, trade and diplomacy, and the world itself will have larger populations that aren’t all concentrated in isolated towns. Then there are the actual fantasy elements, and it’s hard to say the rate at which we’ll be getting those, but having randomly generated world metaphysics and magic systems and all that is the goal. In the ideal distant future, sitting down with a fresh DF world would be like sitting down to read a middling fantasy author you haven’t read before, but with all the extras that being a video game provides, including the ability to write your own sequels."

^ Oh wow....pure awesomeness. Paying $1k for DF v1.0!  :)
