Darkfall is one of its kind, 7 years of development and we still have no proof whatsoever the game is not a hoax or is even in development.

It is gonna release in a couple of month, they say, but they just dont want to make a video to finally show us if it real.

It is kinda funny.

Congrats OP, you win. This is the most useless (and redundant)  thread of the day that I've come across.

I can't prove most games exist TBH, I just read about them on the Internet.

Nope, they released a new video and interviews. And they showed the game to the interviewer and let him play it IN THE VIDEO WHERE WE CAN ALL SEE IT.

But... how does Darkfall being on the same level as Duke Nukem Forever disprove the original post? isn't that the whole idea?

Okay, I'm a "vaportroll" and all, but come on.  Can we finally discuss something NEW around here.  God, all of these posts are just getting so alike..

There are more threads like this than the number of times Paris Hilton has given out...nevermind, but I think you all get my point.

And it only took 4 minutes for me to see the thread and disprove you. See my post above.

Isn't it sad when DNF is proven to be more substantial than Darkfall? Tasos must be proud.

team fortress 2 took almost 10 years to develop with little to no real external evidence, and it turned out to be an amazing game.

You conveniently fail to mention it was made by a company famous for a track record of critically acclaimed games with long development cycles, or that the game underwent a major redesign (not only an "engine upgrade", but an honest to goodness "scrap all the content and mechanics we have" redesign) during development. And if by "little to no real external evidence" you mean "a lot of information for over a year before release, including gameplay videos and screenshots, magazine previews, presentations at conventions and conferences, press releases, developer interviews, a beta, and even machinima showcasing the game's classes and active promoting of the game" then yeah, you're mostly right.

There was actual proof that it existed though, and seeing it in person at E3 04 was awesome.

Citadel of Sorcery. It's been in development for eight years now and there's no evidence that it even exists. They've got screenshots pulled from one of those free 3D programs so we don't even know if they have a working engine.

 

If I remember correctly there is an address in Romania that turned out not to exist - it was an abandoned  farm house or something - and there is no record of the company registered in official Romanian directories.

I thought TF2 was put on hiatus because of HL2 development.

Yes it was never 10yrs that is for sure, it stopped development and then picked up again after they got the new engine set the HL2 engine that is.

Alright this company was much more easier to find not sure how you got the Romanian address, since they are right here in the states. Evidence as followed:

With that I used google maps/earth to find the address, looks like a business to me.

Case solved, I want a cookie now! I suppose it could be those little shacks across the road as well but I really doubt it, it's one of those three building in the box i made.

Edit: Atlantis3D a screen saver merchant site o.O is also registered under them with same address.
http://www.atlantis3d.com/

So my guess would be they own that whole complex but its split into divisions, one is mmomagic, the other is atlantis3d and the other one is probably a general office. At leas this seems like the sensible situation with the evidence provided.

If www.citadelofsorcery.com/questions/questlist.php is to be believed (and why shouldn't it be? It's from the devs and devs have no reason to lie or mislead their audience with false or vague information and should have our faith in them...right?) then you're wrong.

So in the end you were just making stuff about their development time and office location up just to troll the game and/or defend your position, and the ammo you wanted (with the intention to troll that game) is just blanks. At least the so called vaporware trolls don't resort to coming up with lies to attack your convictions, but would rather disprove what they perceive to be lies, yet you'd crucify them for it. But you're lazy so it's OK to have double standards.

After 7 years, it's safe to say at this point that hardcore darkfall defenders a.k.a blind df fanbois are one of two things:

A) Paid Aventurine employees or the devs themselves

B) Just heard about Darkfall recently/are relatively new thus they have only 12 posts like Silverarch.

Hmm, have you read my post? Or any of them for that matter? I'm new to the forum, that much is true , but not to the whole Darkfall situation, and I'm hardly what you would call hardcore or a Darkfall defender. If anything I'm just another vaporware troll under the broad definition applied by some Darkfall fans to anyone who does not share their convictions or those who show even the slightest amount of criticism of DF or its staff.
