It sounds as though Age of Wushu will have many of the features that make darkfall a cult favorite.  So while I hope DF doesn't fail, there are other other options if it tanks.

From the little I've read about it, just a few things the two have in common.

• Full loot open PvP
• Almost no safe zones
• Crafting driven economy
• Ability to buy a plot of land and build a guild temple. (guild hall)

- Cute asian design

- TAB targeting

no thanks

What a nice sideways advertisement for Age of Wulin..wushu or whatever....

I did try that game...nice graphs...and..nice graphs..and also really nice graphs...As far as all the other aspects...Bahh

At the first 5 minutes i felt like Sam Witwicky in this scene 00:43  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH3STHC63hU

WAY TOO MANY WINDOWS AND INFO AND TOOLTIPS AND TEXT....

The first thing that a hardcore PvP MMORPG must get right is the name, having dark, doom, death etc.... In the name is a plus.

age of wushu..... you're doing it wrong.

the second thing that helps is having gloomy looking graphics and dark atmosphere, cutsy pretty graphics, doh.

The above only applies to western markets btw, and the targeted audience of angry nerds.

I didnt know age of wushu had those features, colour me interested.

however people keep refering to darkfall as mmorpg, its really a mmorpg-fps-rts

the combat and open world conquest are what really completely and utterly separated darkfall from every other game. not the ffa full loot pvp. 

for this reason i would say planetside 2 is the closest thing to darkfall on the market. even tho they are also vastly different in other ways.

This.

Advertising aside, I think this topic has some merit. I.e. if UW fails, what else is there that is an: 

1) open-world MMORPG

2) with meaningful skill-based PVP

3) in a fantasy setting

Is there anything like that on the market or coming up that isn't a complete train wreck (that is, other than Mortal Online)? A lot of MMO gamers (myself included) are pretty desperate for a game like that - but I'm not at all confident in Aventurine, who've shown themselves to be hilariously incompetent in the past. Is UW our last hope?

Ewwww ........ he said "TAB Targeting" in the Darkfall forum.  There are unspoken rules you know .........

I havent played AoW, but I did watch some videos and it looks really repulsive to me.

Isn't that game P2W?

I could have sworn I saw someone talk about VIP and non-VIP players.

Tab targetting, no FPS, no skill, GG.

But yeah, DF:UW a game that nobody has played yet is TOTALLY a failure compared to another game that also nobody has played.

Obvious forum nerd is obvious.

 Where did he say DF:UW was a failure? Where exactly did he say Age of Wushu was better?

Maybe we are not reading the same post or you are just looking for a fight? lol
