But dont worry, in DF you will only have the skills you want. You dont have to do anything you are not interested in. This may scare some players that are used to letting the game telling them what to do. If you really like short sword and arcane magic..thats what you will gain...skills you dont like (never is used) you loose...so they dont cost skillpoints for the good skills. And if you used them..that means you like them..... Maybe you think "but i want all skills!" then i say it again....what do you want to do? then you do that |

it's awesome because your char never has to die. you can just pick up a new weapon and go at it.

You won't have to worry about skill degradation for many years to come.

Thank god I am atheist. |
Nothing is better than a skill system in my opinion. Levels are for people who may be gamingly impaired but need to feel a sense of achievement. "I Cant even button bash you to death in pvp, but im lv 100 so i OWN YOU!" To be honest i cannot see why levels would be implemented. Its bloody obvious from uo alone that the skill system is still very popular. If not for some unfortunate shifts in the direction of UO then i would still be playing it. I still play osi and pre-tram free servers but only because every other mmo is level based and i can't just jump into a game and start fighting because i need to spend 2875 hours to get to lv XX so i can grind for some XX level gear to finally be able to use my 9 hot keyed skills and kill people with exactly the same gear, stats, skills as me.
 Hell i really hope this game comes to the pvp community. So i can finally go back to a game were i have to have some sort of a brain and skill to get by. Whats fun about grinding static mobs that spawn in the same place and with no fear that anything can kill me except if i accidentally overdose on speed and cola because the game bores me half to death. Get my adrenaline pumping, instill fear into my heart. A big reason i think pvp does not work in many games now is because of the level system. You cant just jump into it and start killing, open pvp would not work because you have no chance against someone 5+ levels above you. Game producers wont learn. Its going to be 98% emulation of wowcrap for a few years until people start committing suicide, and trying to assassinate SOE ceo's. Huxley had potential until i found out it was instanced battle and nothing like a rectified planetside (r.i.p) Here i am blabbering on, maybe i can waste enough time and then realize DFO has been released?  Do not fear my carebear killing friends, we shall have our glory on the blood soaked field of battle. Darkfall will rescue our souls from this monotonous point and click hell!!!!!! |

Originally posted by minearNo milestone just stepping back and cutting the leet PvE and PvE rubbish out, current mmorpgs have features that have caused the genre to become stale. this is a step back in the right direction. And skill based is the way to go.. |

spending all your time leveling is gay, spending all your time pvping and killing stuff in order to grow strongers ... uberness :D and the fact that a noob, who just made an account CAN do damage to some guy playing for months makes me wanna say "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAH"... Skill > everything here, and thats why i liek darkfall. |

Time and effort will make people more rounded but not as invincible, subtle differences . As far as killing people to grow stronger that wont be necessary at all just one of many ways... I think you are a little misguided as to how this will really work. |
