Enjoy : )

My eyes are burning from the quality of the video...but I was laughing pretty hard at the start.  We definitely have a wide range of fans and some of them definitely have a creative side.

Darkfall Recap of everything that has happened the last 3 months: http://www.mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/213296

"The monsters are tough. I was looking for a challenge, but these things are just too damn smart." -DF Beta Tester

"If people were dismissing it, then they wouldn't be talking about it. The well-meaning gamers root for efforts that try to raise the bar. So who's left? It's so easy being a skeptic." -Tasos

I love all this hype, especially as we apparently are so close to beta and launch, I treasure these precious hopes and dreams dearly.

If it really does deserve all these years of built up anticipation then that just means even more people will be playing a great game, and if it does not deserve it, then it just makes the lamentations of the supporters even sweeter post beta/launch.

Exactly.  I'll be here to flame the fanbois or be flamed.  Either way, it has been a very nice run.  While I may or may not have appreciated a lot of the posters in the DFO section of these forums, it has been a lot of fun along the way.  This section of the forums has always been good for a few laughs or to get the blood stirring in the morning.

 

Fear not fanbois, we are not trolls, let's take off your tin foil hat and learn what VAPORWARE is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporware

"Vaporware is a term used to describe a software or hardware product that is announced by a developer well in advance of release, but which then fails to emerge after having well exceeded the period of development time that was initially claimed or would normally be expected for the development cycle of a similar product."

Well.. theres one thing to do:

Release the DAMN game.  Or a open beta, or something. Maybe a open beta with a option to pay to unlock high levels or a area.

Think i seen it ten times now and videos like these will bring 10K extra subs to the game.

Rammstein and Darkfall fits like a glove. Bang, Bang.

Hehe, Valroth (the guy who made the video) is a buddy of mine. He has some serious talent. He also made my clan's recruitment video, and a couple of others, focusing on some of the different races. I'm really looking forward to seeing what he'll be able to do with his own in-game footage. :)

This trailer solved one of the problems with the original work...the opening sequences were the most rigid and graphically uninteresting part of the entire video. The original video takes off with the introduction of the mounts/archery/naval battles and takes a while to do so. You have to hook people.

This does that in spades.

Nice work

it is always a little scary when you witness the bottom of the barrel of the MMO community.  Makes me feel kind of ehhh that I have a similar hobby, but also makes me feel good about myself.

I dont get how people can judge a game without knowing anything about it.  Levels?  really?  Im sure there are plenty of people who bash this game who know nothing about it.  They see the video, it isnt the game they are looking forward to, and automatically the gameplay sucks.  boggles the mind.

Exactly.

This guy is a genious.

No trespassing! Beware the Psychotog

This game WILL happen,you can bet on it.as far as a release date,beta for november release for early december.This is what has to happen for any success.I don't think the PVP will live up to my expectations,but mine are very high.I think for the averagePVP'r that just likes to go out and kill,they will be very happy with this game.To me it looks like a PVE world with Full out PVP added in.That is where the problem lies,the game world is not designed for skillfull PVP,too bad too because with FPS like reactions it could have been very good.

PvP wasnt added to a PvE world.

PvP have been the one of the developers main focus from starters. Its not something that have been added afterwards.

Game world is designed for large and small scale PvP. Conquests.

You missed the point.It may have been there focus of the game,and the true design of the game,but i guarantee you will see open areas with a few dotted rocks and trees,nothing that offers skillful PVP.As a matter of fact i would say the entire terrain in this game is most likely done with a terrain editor,nothing designed around PVP at all.I did notice the inside castle video,that had a few hiding areas[they show a guard hiding in a crevice] or areas that offer decent PVP,but really it was just a normal castle and not actually designed for PVP.

I know what to expect from such a small staff,like i said terrain editor,some quick mobs dotted around there dungeons,a few trees/rocks ,i wouldn't expect anything more.
