• • Darkfall website FAQ in the year 2001: Q) When will this game release? A) We hope to release Darkfall in the Fall of 2003.

  • lol wow.  only in Darkfall forums will you find the trolls more intelligent than the fanbois. . .

    Aragon100, why is it necessary for me to post facts that have already been posted about 893, 339 times before?  I'm simply arguing against your logic that Darkfall has been in development for only 5 years.  I'm saying that Darkfall has promised beta and release so many times that by now they should have lost all credibility to any sane gamer.  That you still have faith in this game is fine.  That you twist facts around to validate your faith in this game is not.  Believe it or not, i wanna see this game released just as much as you do.  I just won't believe it til i see it.  Until then i'm just having fun poking holes in peoples logic

    Did you get an idea how PvP would work on a massive scale ? As yourseldf said, you hate minigames. I am on an agreement on that. I want to do meaningful PvP. The borderkingdom part has potential for being meaningful yet Aventurine choose not to show us what would be one of the best features of the game ? Why ?

     

    How cool woulden't it be to conquer battlekeeps with 50-100 of your closest friends ? Heck, they don't even have to be friends :) And yet they fail to invite people to play. I have a theory that Aventurine do not have the talent nor interest to pull off massive PvP. DarkFall could be a splendid PvP game I'm sure but an insult to those that hardcore PvP. We have seen Nothing so far of the PvP.

    Notice with some minor changes to your statement, it starts to look very familiar? When you take a look outside of the blind fanboy faith, many people who like the idea of DF ask very similar questions.

    LOL, i couldn't have said it better myself

    LOL - some interesting logic there. So if PvP weekend is not a valid base to make conclusions on the total game, then the game is not very limited ?

     

    
    How does that NOT make sense?  Obviously it isn't very limited if all you were shown was a glimpse of the game during PvP weekend.

     DUH

    Um..if you only see a part of something, you cannot make assumptions on the whole thing.

    Wait what?  Whoa hold on there, you mean to tell me i can't make any assumptions about AoC because i haven't seen it?  Okay i suppose that makes sense . . . except for the part where you run around regurgitating claims about Darkfall since by your own rationale you've obviously personally seen and played every aspect of the game.

    One needs look no further than Darkfall's fanbase to understand how little substance this 'game' actually has.  Take this thread for instance- what is it about?  A Darkfall fan has found an obscure 2-year old 'review' of the 'game' and are touting it as new information, all the while congratulating each other and slapping each other on the back for a job well done.  And when confronted with the fact that this info is quite dated and ultimately irrelavant how do they respond?  "Well, it's new to me . . ."

    Such desperate straw-grasping is indicative of one thing: delusion

    But on the plus side, it is very amusing to watch these fanbois running around like chickens with their heads cut off grabbing onto anything, ANYTHING, that might justify said delusion.  It's why i come here after all

     

     

    And you are here because ? Ah yes a Anti-Fanboi I am not sure who is worse a fanatic or an Atheist.

    I'm here because i have just as much a right to speak against Darkfall as you do defending it.  It's a simple matter of expressing opinion.  You can do it, and so can i.  See how that works now?  Incidentally, you have my deepest pity that you needed such a basic concept explained to you, though you're far from the first person i've had to educate, and likely won't be the last.  Isn't freedom of speech wonderful?

  • My beef with Darkfall is the blatant lies Adventurine has fed us over the past 7 years regarding their 'game'.  Promises on top of promises, yet in the end nothing delivered.  If they simply said "We're very limited on funds so this may take a while, but we'll keep you posted on what we're doing so far." i would understand, but instead we're fed crap like "We could have open beta tomorrow if we wanted to."  Also, the fact that they're keeping everything so hush-hush is in itself pretty suspicious.  Which brings me to my second point . . .

    They're obviously not interested in trying to find serious financial support for their 'game'.  If they were, they would be a bit more open about what they're trying to accomplish with this, maybe at least try to garner some publicity in the hopes of attracting a financier.  But no, instead they lurk in the shadows throwing out occasional redundant tidbits every now and then in order to pacify the masses?  Let a small handful of obscure people see their work, but not allow a well known and reputable establishment (Gamespot, PC Gamer, etc) have a peek?  Sorry, but it just doesn't add up.

    People who want to believe in this 'game' will convince themselves of it's veracity despite any and all evidence to the contrary.  And though i too would like to see it release, i'm a bit more objective.  Given all the information about this 'game' (or lack of information, as is more often the case) over the years, i can only conclude that Darkfall is a farce.  Quite franky i'm surprised it still has as much of a following as it does.  But hey, there's a sucker born every minute . . .
