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)

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.

The dwemer (deep elves) hung around giants a lot and the giants called them dwarves. They’re actually average height.

That’s actually kinda neat. I’ll have to check out Morrowwind again. Looks like that race is in that game, but I’m not sure.

Not as good as Warhammer lore but not bad.
