And more and more I am thinking you are simply trying to be (another) Viral Marketer for Darkfall?

Although it's OT (which doesn't matter since you have long since shot your own thread down) if Darkfall actually plays with full loot open PvP the way many people like you seem to hope - it will be dead in 6 months from release.
The reality is that full PvP is harsh.  Most people - even the supposed "hardcore" gamers simply can't hack it.

How do I know this?  WWIIoL is a PvP & RvR game and people struggle with it.  That is without Loot.


Darkfall 'promises' the added complication of loot.  It's all fine while you are winning - but you find many of the so called 'hardcore' like to win ALL THE TIME.  When they lose - suddenly it isn't fun any more.
They form "gank squads" - and for a month or two they have fun while they prey on the non-gankers - who leave.  Soon there are no easy targets and the gank squads either have to prey on each other or leave.
We saw this in PotBS.  It was even predicted by one of the PotBS designers (although he thought he was only talking about other games)
 

The real "hardcore" are less than 10% of those that claim to be hardcore - in fact probably more like 2-5% of that group.


 

I'm in the process of downloading the trial now but what he does remind me of is the players of dying games who go begging the mmo community to come join them in their misery in hopes that they can actually have fun in game

It's worth the time to try it even if you decide not to pay for it. The game has some really unique features.

Even sandboxes have fundamental rules such as; "Don't eat the cat poop, you'll die."
