"What man is a man who does not make the world better?"

So I just posted this: 

http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?p=1181950#post1181950

On the official Darkfall community forums. 

It's a cleaned up-a-bit version of a blog post I did here.


I really want to see what the Darkfall community says.


So I'm going to make a poll for you DF fans/haters here:

probably flame you and then ban you.

 

Just to say tho in eve people do more than just talk about Corp V Corp you do get many Corps forming deliberate [informal] friendships for mutual protection and/or Trading/production alliances.

Noooo, you punched holes all over in the game to end all games... yeeeeaaahhh. This game is gonna go down in flames... if it even makes it far enough to be set on fire.

 

They'll delete your post and act if it never existed.

Some of what you said are very good points, then you had a few parts were it was more or less an attack.

result will be getting flamed lol

 

as for me I will attack and kill noob and vet alike after I establish myself to a degree, its not really cowardice on my part but more of a bloodlust and will hopefully draw out those anti pk factions. 

 

In my opinion DF is not a good choice of a game for the lone wolf type player that never wants to join a group/guild ect.

Fun Factor is what makes or breaks a game, if its not fun just play something else.

"What man is a man who does not make the world better?"

Well so far 60 views and no replies.

Either I've:

A) Stumped them

B) P*ssed them off so much they dare not reply

C) The thread is already locked lol

D) No one has bothered to read the whole thing!

 

Honestly, I try to make sense of the argument from many different perspectives, all while trying to remain objective...

It's hard to be objective when it comes to gankers/griefers because I honestly see no reason to do so except for a complete lack of courage and true skill.

I come here
because I care.

After reading it, I have to say that I don't think you will get the response you are expecting. If I know the Darkfall community at all, they will almost unanimously agree with your post and stand behind it, even if they won't all say it.

"Freedom to kill who you want" is more about killing people who piss you off or get in your way than about killing helpless, innocent newbies. I agree completely with what you were saying.

Well, I am a member of those forums and I don't have sufficient priveleges to respond to it where you posted.

I read your post. FFA PVP is fun and it seems like you're against it because you're afraid the world will slip into chaos or you'll get ganked. But what you're missing is that FFAPVP adds a huge sense of immersion to the game. I could go on, but I think many of my points will be lost on you (not an insult, it just seems like you have a totally different play style and you can't appreciate what you don't know.)

AAH! A troll fire! Quick, pour some Kool-Aid on it!!!
