Now i'm going to be brave inough to this dark part of the forums to ask a question. I don't know if i will leave here alive but i must know.

What is so great about Darkfall?

The fans of this game seems very hostile and quite frakly scares the crap out of me. But i am brave enough to ask; why do you like the game? Let's start with my backround and what i think is a good MMORPG. Now Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games is a huge genre. Like sports games. You might like American Football games but hate golf games.

Now I've played around 40 MMOs in my time my first was Final Fantasy XI and i'm now waiting for Warhammer Online. And yes i have played World Of Warcraft but didn't like it (only played to lv39).  And a lot of free asian games. And what i've learned is that you should not compare these games with each other. You don't go from Final Fantasy XI to Guild Wars thinking "Man this is not like FFXI at all and that is bad because it is not in FFXI". It's like sports games you don't go from a golf game to a Football (soccer) game thinking you're going to play a golf game.

But i just don't see anything i like about Darkfall! I'm don't like the graphics, i don't like the animations, i don't like the sound and the gameplay just doesn't seem fun for me. There is nothing i like about this game. And there seems to be so many people defending it (mostly in a hostile way).

So i'm asking you: What is so great about Darkfall?

I understand you problem and i agree with you that the elfs are gay. But if you're looking for a big musculine tank you won't fiind them on the order side, KoTBS (empire tank) was awesome and i would play one if they will come back. But they're not musciline, just awesome.

Well you can't go and have a huge battle in a PVE area (like a leveling spot or quest area) there are places for pvp. But at the end game zones the pvp areas are alot larger than the pve areas so there's lots of places to battle. I.E the Chaos vs Empire end zones, the pvp area is a huge city with burning houses. Looks awesome

The thing i love most about warhammer is mythic, and the way they give us information about warhammer. I've hyped games before but those games never really showed or talked much about the new stuff they brings to the game, and when i started playing they were a dissapointment. Warhammer on the other hand showes us nearly everything, they have 5 min videos about the new stuff about the game and pauls video blog. They show us this becaus they know it's good and new. You just get the feeling they're not bullshiting you, and the feeling that they're trying hard not to be crap!

The only resemblance you can see with WAR and WoW is that they have orcs, dwarf, humans and elves. Altough the WoW races dont resemblance the WAR races one bit (In the way they think and act.) And maybe that the grafiks "looks like WoW". As we all know WoW was PvE based and WAR will be PvP based, but you can PvE the whole game if you like that. So read about the gameplay to see the differences between games.

I wait for the games, WAR is the one of them. I check every news and think about WoW. Any differences? Not too much as I can see. Why not WAR 40k instead? Maybe that can be more interesting (for me). Is there any possibility, that WAR 40k come?
