...just summing up a couple of reviews i just read that TOTALLY missed the point of what Darkfall is about.
Darkfall is a sandbox-style PVP MMO -- if you want to run quests and do solo PVE content, DON'T BOTHER PLAYING IT.
Has to be said. |

90% of the total mmorpg genre playerbase are grind-loving carebears. DF was not made for that audience. |

I don't think you have played Darkfall. Darkfall has one of the biggest grinds out there. |

You're completely right: Damn those WoW fanbois for wanting actual content and a storyline in the game! The really good players don't need quests, because they can make them up for themselves and craft everything as their rewards. Come on people, let's get started on the quest lines!
This is a sequence of characters intended to produce some profound mental effect, but it has failed. |

100% of DF fans are wondering why carebears are even interested in Darkfall anyway, there's plenty of games with mindless, repetitive PVE content for you to enjoy. |

Much better than seeing fanboys missinterpretting pretty awful game design due to amateurism as intentional in order to create the ultimate sandbox pvp experience , and ejaculating over it. The rules of Debate are really simple; once you have to stoop to insults instead of facts, logic, or reason to try and win your argument, you've lost. |

But he has a PhD in something, surely he is smarter than us all On Topic: So there is a difference between repetitive mindless PvE vs repetitive mindless PvP? There are 3 types of people in the world.

But no....according to Aventurine and the more extreme followers, the game is EVERYTHING. It#s PvE heaven because of dynamic mob-spawns, superior Mob AI and so on. It is crafter heaven, because of the infinately complex but easy crafting. It is RPers heaven because...well, I never understood that one, but yeah.
DF brought this on itself. Aventurine advertised the game as the be all and end all of games. Go to their official Homepage and you will still see they claim to be over the top in EVERY aspect of gameplay...not just PvP. |

Yeah, like using the same skill over and over again to level! Those grinds are so stupid. Any game that makes you use the same skill for hours on end to progress is stupid. As long as it's skill based advancement you don't need different mobs to kill, just empty space to cast your magic missile at! The developers have left it up to your own imagination to create a target instead of just babying you with npc models from expensive artists.

Lol, that made me think... What if AV allows macro'ing? The way the EULA is worded, they don't disallow it. At least that is how I read it. Just thinking, if that is the case, Why put the skill system in in the first place? I have a theory, but just ponder that for a few. DarkFall FAQ - Read then Question with Boldness |

hehehe i was waiting for someone to add that, hence why i said the op was being mocked. Darkfall is the biggest grind ever.....bigger than any "carebear" game.
Have fun with your PEW PEW laser towers........

edit: I love all the WOW fanbois getting defensive and raging over grinding.

90% of the playbase don't know what a real mmo is if it hit them in the face, they our brainwashed to think World of Warcraft is a mmo. |

to say that a game is not an mmo because you don't like it is just pure ignorance. Grow up my friend |
