After Valve says no, Dwarf Fortress and Deep Rock Galactic devs unite to get "very serious" about their very silly demand for a dwarf tag on Steam, and they want your help (www.gamesradar.com)

As a huge dwarf lover, this would be great for me. I've loved playing dwarves ever since I played Golden Axe at the arcade. Whenever there's a dwarf as a playable character I'm more interested in the game. In fact, I dislike Skyrim for having elves but no dwarves.

In Elder Scrolls lore, the dwarves are elves. So are the orcs.

Let me upset you further. Dwarves are just short humans, elves are just skinny humans, and orcs are just green humans. Halflings are human children, and gnomes are mischievous human children. We don't talk about the aarakocra.

Such clearly incorrect information doesn't bother me. It's not like you said elves were better than dwarves. THAT would upset me.

I mean, they are better than dwarves at basketball.
