    Alright, here's the deal. Either give me a release date, a publisher, or a pre-order website.

    If you can't do ONE of those, you have no case.

     

    No case you say.=)

    Are you for real?

    What do you think Darkfall developers have done during all these years informing us the fans with endless updates about the game? Been out partying or? Why dont you read up about all the hundreds of developer updates during the years. Heres is a good site for that. There is 205 written updates and news on these link. http://forums.darkfallonline.com/forumdisplay.php?f=29&order=desc .

    Have you seen the progression during the years of Darkfall graphics? I quote myself on this since i dont have the patience to make something better for a person like you that is merely here on the Darkfall board to defend your crapgame AoC and troll Darkfall.

    Any seeable improvements? =) Seems to me like a game under development, or?

    Have you seen all videos from the Darkfall devs? Where does those came from of its not from a game under development? =)

    Ok defended enough now. All games have no case then if were gonna follow your logic. All games under development isnt worth following if your logic is right. Didnt you follow AoC before beta were released?

    But i can fill one of these in for you, i give you a publisher. Darkfall have a publisher in Aventurine thats been there first choice of publisher since 2002 when Razorwax and Aventurine merged. So it seems we do have a case. =)

    [QUOTE] Community: why has Darkfall had such a hard time securing a solid publisher and with the impending release of both age of Conan and Warhammer online aren't you concerned that the game will be unable to maintain a self sustaining profitable player base considering that the other games have giant budgets and giant advertising campaigns.

    Tasos Flambouras: In very simple terms, it's not so much as Darkfall having a hard time securing a publisher as it is that publishers have had a hard time securing Darkfall. I'll explain: We do have the capability to self-publish, so the competition to any publishing offer, aside from other offers, is our own plan for self-publication. In our self-publishing scheme we hire the same services that most publishers use so in effect "cutting out the middleman" is usually to our advantage, especially since as a newcomer in the gaming industry it's rare to get a fantastic deal. Furthermore, getting a publishing deal isn't crucial to us in regards to development, and we won't just jump at offers. We have the "luxury" to try to do what's best for the game in this context. That being said, we have been and still are in discussions with publishers who present a good and viable alternative to our self-publishing plan.

     Giant budgets and giant advertising campaigns demand giant paydays. We definitely don't need to be a World of Warcraft killer to be successful, but the same may not be true about some of the other games in development. When faced with the question of budget allocation we decided that it's more important for us to first make as good a game as possible and then to market it on its merit. The opposite doesn't work in the long run, and quality would be compromised by taking some of the development resources and throwing them into marketing so we're betting everything on our strength. We couldn't compete with some of the large titles when it comes to marketing since it all comes down to dollars and cents, but we can still make one hell of a game. [/QUOTE]

    They can selfpublish and its been there intention all along, just like EvE, but they been and still are in discussions with publishers who present a good and viable alternative to theirs self-publishing plan.

    So you agree we have a case now then?

     Can we go back on topic now and compare Darkfall graphics with Age of Conan graphics?

    did you give any of the info . . . no

    i guess you have no case.
