MO .... will never have the same scale of on screen in action pvp that darkfall supports nearly flawlessly. Mo will be a nice looking game and have plenty of small to medium - pvp

OH yeh Mo = no asset destruction no sieging at lease dfo is giving the tools for decent politics

Plus, if your PC really slow down from Xfire it's really, REALLY time you uppgrade that Windows 95.

 

I'm running Xfire right now. I dropped from 60 FPS to 30 FPS. I'd say thats a resource hog. I'm also proving a point that xfire doesn't matter, I'll post my results when the expierment is done.

I think everyone, execpt the trolls or feel ripped off, have bashed Eurogamer's review of DFO. Why? Because the review was not professional, listed things as facts that were wrong, and mainly complained about things that were by design not out of amature mistakes i.e. no auto looting. Even the MO fanboys said that review was biased, poorly done, and would not want that type of reviewer to review Mortal Online.

After the review, I wrote a counter review using Eurogamer's score and gave DFO a 6.5 (.5 for potential).

For the sake of the argument, lets say you are right and eurogamer's review is complete garbage. How does nowgamer's review differ from eurogamer? Its not a detailed review, it doesnt give anything other then how the reviever "feels" about the game. Its  more vague then eurogamer. But, it does not raise any concern from the likes of fanbots who praise it ONLY because they didnt score it low. That article shouldn't even qualify as a review, its more of a blog. Yet we do not hear Tasos digging up logs to check how much that guy played. Does that not strike you odd?

I am the type of player where I like to do everything and anything from time to time.

Great review.

The definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. When will developers (and players) become sane? Now go eat some grass like everyone else.

And what makes this review "not shit"?

Because it says DF is great? Or because it tells so much about the game and is far more indepth than the Eurogamer one?

Choose carefully, because both possible answers are held up by rotten planks over a swamp.

I didn't bother reading the review I'm just commenting that the Eurogramer review was completly usless yet people take it as truth which is hurting the game. Had that happened in the US and AV was a US company they'd be able to sue for libel.

1) Quests are few, rewards are paltry and if your time is constricted by other concerns and you were hoping for unbridled levels of entertainment to stave them off, you will probably want to quickly escape for good.

True

2) After all, buying the game was hardly the most endearing process. Curious early adopters were tasked to visit what is effectively an online back alley – but only at particular times on particular days – and hope for the best. More akin to buying crack than a computer game… we assume.

Great analogy. I got my crack second hand. Whats that make me? LOL!

3) But more importantly than [being skilled on the indvidual level], you have to
out-number them. Three poorly equipped noobs who know what they are doing could probably make short work of an obnoxious unseated veteran with high-end gear. It’s not a perfect system by any means – the advantage is with the attacker and the hunter– but it’s not such a bad thing that as a consequence you’re forced down a path of co-operation with other players.


Some what true. Numbers help, but they don't ensure victory unless you are in a 1 v X situation. Corrdination is required, espeically if you 2:1 odds or lower

4) Your experience in Darkfall is reliant on and dictated to by other players, but at the same time the limits of what is possible are not fully locked down by game design
 

Some people argue that all there is to do is PvP. Well thats true to an extent. In most games PvP is secondary and happens off the cuff and isn't intergral to the game design. Not in DFO. All rodes lead back to PvP. This can be a good or bad thing depending on your priorites. For instance, many of the UO vets say that player housing in DFO is uselss because its not safe enough. Anyone can come to your house, break down your door, and kill you. But the PvPers love it since that also means that if you are chasing someone they aren't able to go into their house for saftey.

5) It’s not a fully developed world blessed with content by any means; it’s a frontier that offers opportunity on the proviso that there are no guaranteed rewards.


True. I take this to mean that the game needs more content, but the lack of content doesn't detract from the game as much as it would in say AoC. Of course, thats an opinion

6)For many that sign up to the game from here on in, that is where the future lies, and it’s where the developer has to concentrate its long-term efforts to ensure it holds onto the players it has, so that even more may be tempted to join.
Darkfall has more good features than bad, but what is pleasing for a game so early in what should be a long life, is that it has masses of potential to be a slow-burning success. Of course, that potential may not be enough in a market very different to when the game first went into production, before WoW put the masses into multiplayer gaming.

Wow. That pretty much sums it up right there. People looking for a UO clone may not find their game in DFO. They may think that Guild vs Guild is pointless because it doesn't let them shine on the individual level or hate DFO for other reasons, but the PvP crowd generally like the game. That doesn't mean the game doesn't need improvement, as the reviewer noted, but many believe that its moving in the right direction




Over all the review is pretty accurate, but doesn't give enough info about the sepficis of the game. A review should tell people as much about the game as possible without sugar coating anything. This barly scratches the surface of the game. Therefore it fails as being a good review Accurate or not

Thank you. You pretty much came to the same conclusion as me.

There is nothing in that review that shows me that the reviewer actually played. Everything there could have been pulled out of various forum threads.

Yet, the fans are going apeshit over it as a "great review" solely because it says Darkfall is a good game.

A "good review" should have the same required standards that the fans wanted to apply to Eurogamer's "bad review".

And as someone pointed out earlier, is Tasos going to give us these guys logs as well?

Hell I think my review did better than this. I'm sure you can find it, but I can't post here or I'll get banned again

Fanboys and trolls are both dumb and it makes people like me look bad since I actually enjoy Darkfall.

you realise people can read this thread for themselves right? and everyone can see that you're lying as usual....

 

the only people going apeshit here are trollbots falling over each other trying to discredit the review because it gives DF a good score. it's funny.

Yes, those bad trollbots made DarthRaiden create this topic, made him post such a bad thing that it warranted a Mod edit. They are some powerful trolls indeed!

Yeah... 'cause you, your buddies here and Tasos wouldn't know anything about attacking a review and/or a reviewer who gives DF a rating you don't like. None of you have ever done any such thing, right?

Give me a break.

When DF was given a low score by a little-known site, it wasn't a valid score and anyone who said otherwise was a troll.
Now, when DF gets a higher score from a little-known site.. it's a valid score and anyone who says otherwise is a troll.

It's amazing watching you guys hypocritically play all sides of the fence for this game.

DF is not deserved of this score. A 5 is about right. How anyone can t see through this blog post is beyond me. Before I get jumped on yes I played DF since EU release till a month or so ago. I really did give the game a shot. but it s really that bad.

Yes, because as I said I really gave it a shot. I m not going to go one month, I feel new games need longer. It got worse IMO as time went on. The amount of people leaving the game didn t help matters either.

Pretty sure the OP has a typo in it.  He must have meant "Non-gamer" review or something like that.

Reviews are opinoins and heavily inffluenced by the reviewers preferences.  Those who favor FFA PVP with full loot will naturally score this game higher, while those who hate this will score it lower.

Sort of like Olympic judges ...... 5/6 will give someone a 9 but the 6th one will give a 10 to the hometown girl.

I played for 3 months as well... then in my last monrh it started to get really boring, as I am the kind oif guy who likes to craft and play the market.... and there wasn't one. I felt the actual pvp gameplay ad siegeing was awesome, but I need more out of a game than pvp.

the whole having to pay for a whole new game to play on NA was what pushed me over. I canceled my account a couple minutes after they announced that.

Wow...talk about grade inflation.

A 91 to 100 was an "A" in my day.

No wonder the world is in the shape it is today.


 

Well, that explains why I get so many resumes with spelling errors, bad grammar, grade-school organization....

Society is doomed when the 20-somethings turn 40.
