Dwarf Fortress creator says we can learn something from simply walling up dwarf nobles to maintain an equal society—but notes you have to abolish the dwarf cops, too: 'Another lesson to be had there'

Dwarf Fortress co-creator Tarn Adams suggests that the game's complex simulation of nobility offers lessons for real-world societies, particularly regarding the management of an elite class. He notes that while players can wall off nobles, their influence persists if an armed guard enforces their demands, highlighting the need to abolish such enforcement for true egalitarianism.
