To be fair, you're not counting all the DF posts where WoW is mentioned. WoW should at least get credit for 1/2 a post in those cases ;P

Great point! like it

Wow should take the credit for 80% of posts on this site as it is mentioned so much. God i even mention it when i see a fit woman pass me by!

In WoW (and in most other games) the fun is inside the game.
In Darkfall the fun is in this forum because the game is unable to deliver it

Darkfall is just much more interesting to talk about than WOW, which is so 2004. 

But then again, talking about DF is so 2008, Aion is the game people really want to gush over/bash here in the summer of 2009.

 

 

You forgot about SW:tOR, you know the game that has all the fat 30 year olds living in mom's basement with their fake lightsabers getting a hardon over paying a monthly fee or RMT for a single player game.

Well, SW:tOR is based on a future reality, so maybe its the game of 2010.

It seems the concept of Darkfall has a greater draw of attention.  Even those that prefer the theme-park centric pve mmorpgs are stepping in here, as seen in this post, to state how unfavorable a player-driven and dynamically player-influenced ecosystem type mmorpg is to them.

 

Just goes to show the diversity of opinions. 

hm, i haven't seen any threads about people complaining about how rude and harsh the pvp in Df is, no whines about getting pked or full looted. it's rather about how df fails to deliver anything (economy, pve, crafting, diverse skilltrees and so on) and how av is a bunch of lying morons.

actually most people who post here were all attracted by the concept of darkfall, it just failed epicly. maybe mo will fail too, but i'm pretty sure that sometime in the near future there will be a decent full / partial loot, open pvp sandbox game with a playerdriven economy beside eve. *crosses fingers*

and honestly, aventurine deserves the bad word of mouth and all the bashing.

It's because everyone who plays WoW spends more time ingame, everyone who plays Darkfall stays here and defends it, chew on that bit of data.

That would require DF to have  a much bigger playerbase.  Since the numbers like stated in other threads is around 18k and WoW has some millions you must be wrong.

/facepalm

I'm not going to point out how you completely botched it (yet again) in your post. I'd rather let you figure it out for yourself.

I'll leave you with this tip, though: READ before replying.


 

Well you know what they say.  If you can't be famous, be infamous.  I do find it funny though.  I always thought the whole bad rep is better then no rep thing, as BS.  I guess it's true.

hahahaa

more popular than the most popular MMORPG ever?

HaHaHa more popular than the MMORPG that holds over 50% of the market?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

more popular?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA... *dies from laughing*

No seriously, Darkfall is more HATED than WoW because well. It sucks...

LOL

Another incredible David and Goliath victory for Aventurine and a clear sign of Darkfalls continued success despite Blizzards every best effort to thwart the growth of this serious contender and its most considerable threat at every step over the years.

Im sure when the highly anticipated USA server launch scheduled to happen soon, or some time soon after or never, the continued incredible interest in this smash hit next generation title will only accelerate beyond all conceivable expectations what by any objective standards is already such a tremendous success story only 4 months after its worldwide launch to highly critical acclaim.

I sincerely believe that if this level of interest and hype can be maintained until then its possible we may be conservatively looking at an incredible and almost unheard of long term subscription base of possibly between 10-15 thousand players or even less or perphaps zero, If anyone had any doubts about the reality of the clear and present danger Darkfall poses to so called mainstream games such as WoW then this is a testament to that undeniable fact.

Previously I predicted to general agreement that in Darkfalls case we could possibly be looking at the much vaunted WoW killer in its embryonic stage, well now after considering this latest startling revelation I think its even more undeniable that the baby has almost come full term.

Great things are in store for Aventurine and Darkfalls future is only looking brighter then ever before, these are great and momentous times and when people look back on the wonder and glory that is the Darkfall experience they will surely conceded this was the dawning of a new age in online entertainment that will go down in the annuals of gaming history as an epoch changing event of epic proportions.

erm haha?

WoW is old and saggy. There probably aren't more than a handful of visitors to these forums who haven't played it. It also doesn't change much. Fundamentally, the game is today, what it was as release. There's not much to say about it.

And Darkfall - well it's more infamous than popular here. If you were to assess the content of each post as either negative or positive, then you wouldn't make the claim you have in the thread title.

Regarding popularity, do we need to look any further than subscriptions?

Last time I looked in on it, WoW's subscriptions had passed the 10 million mark.

The most recent data I looked at for Darkfall suggested they were hovering around the 10000 mark.
