you can only get the game from the trickster website. the website has been up and down at times because of the mass amount of people downloading the game. luckily i was one of the first people to download it. so just be patient the server will be down for a while. rumor is that it will come out of this 'beta' on friday the 28th. no one can play the game at the moment because they are having problems with the sign on.

They think they will have the problems with the Sign-in Program sorted out by the 28th of July.  Whether or not it will be up at that date remains to be seen.
It is said it will be in closed beta for a little while. And by 'closed beta' it means Max 1000 connections to the game servers. So you can register and play, but you will have to get used to seeing "server full" if this game is as popular as I think it is.
If everything runs smoothly they will open the population-lock and let people join freely. (This can take a day, to a week, or months. Depending on how smooth the initial release goes, and how quick they are to tackle bugs/problems).

This is a free to play game, and only additional stuff such as fancy hats, special pets and special gear, will cost anything.

Why is this game different?  I mean at first glance it looks like another korean anime grindfest.  But LOTS of people have been saying 'no its more than that, check it out!'  If someone could throw out a few examples it'd be much appreciated.

I don''t really know when Humankind will die out but i''m guessing about 6 years before WOW.

You can equip a drill and dig holes wherever you'd like, and possibly dig up everything from coins to pretty good armor and weapons. 
You can have card battles. Almost, if not every, monster drops a card with it's name and picture on it, and a number. There are 15 ranks of cards, 1 being the lowest 15 the highest. Any of the two extremes are the most rare and handy cards.  A card battle is performed by talking to a matchmaking NPC that sets you up against someone else's cards. I havent personally tried this feature in the japanese version of trickster, but supposedly you can win prizes.

Other than those two, there aren't really many major differences between Trickster and  Ragnarok Online. But I would say the character and world design in trickster is way more appealing to the eye than RO's poor 3d world. Trickster is not 2d sprites in a 3d world. You cannot rotate your view. The concept behind the design is just like the oldschool supernintendo rpg's.
There are lots of small effects that contributes to the whole, making Trickster look pretty polished and fun.
Some people will not find Trickster very appealing to them because of the style of the game.
I can personaly vouch for that the grind isn't really that heavy. It has been designed by a japanese company, and usualy the japanese games industry makes games that humans would actually play for enjoyment. (Ofcourse there are exceptions to this :P  (FFXI))

Darkfall fanboy.

Dear fans,

After going through a comprehensive meeting with GameNGame staffs, we (Ntreev) have come to a conclusion that the launch date should be delayed until next week due to few problems with GameNGame’s SSO system.

Please check out the link for Apology from Game&Game.
Apology from Game&Game

After numbers of previous delays, we tried our best to bring out Trickster in the scheduled time but it is very unfortunate to announce another delay and our apology goes to our valued Trickster fans around the globe.

As some of you might have noticed already SSO is a part of GameNGame’s new system and even though we are trying our best to solve this situation, we (Ntreev) also have no choice but to wait for GameNGame to finish completing the SSO system.

We will continue to put in our best efforts to launch the service in the nearest time possible and the announcement will follow before announcing the finalized opening date some time next week.

Oh dear,yet another delay.

DARKFALL BETA SIGNUPS BEGIN! VAPORWARE TROLLS AND DOUBTERS; YOU LOSE!

Next stop: Darkfall itself. Oh f**k yeah!

Yeah, uhm. I think they are going to scrap some of the games since they are not compatible with gamengame's Single Sign On system (Their little login function that lets you create an account on the main site, and log into all of the games listen on their site with that one account). It seems Nostale was dropped alltogether. It doesn't take them much effort to drop a game it seems... so if they cannot get their heads out of where ever it's stuck and scrap the SSO system, I see a dark future for gamengame.com.

Not that I care :)
I've played enough Trickster on the japanese servers.

Giving opening dates before ANY system works = moronic.
The whole deal with Nostale (http://game.nostale.com/) dissapearing off the face of the earth is not encouraging. Also the forums are confusing, simply just one big section named "review(?!)" with all threads just thrown in there in one big pile.

The only thing they have succesfully done is to piss of most of the community & show "potential investors" that they have no clue to what to do.
