• • Why does no one want to publish this game?

    That's like saying a person with:

    - ZERO work experience (Aventurine has zero MMO experience)

    - An empty resume (Aventurine developed zero games of other genre)

    - Wears a dirty shirt and ripped jeans to interviews (Look at their website)

    is in a position to pick and choose employers. This guy is unemployeed now because he's waiting for the right job with the right salary and benefits to come to his laps.

     

    Am I the only one who sees the hilarity in this?

    No MMO will ever sell itself without proper PR and marketing. That is naive and borderline ignorant.

    That's a weird notion considering the F2P market has been doing it for years now. Some of those games have numbers rivaling WoW. Albeit they may not all be paying customers but that isn't the point is it. They all found the games and downloaded them without huge PR and Marketing campaigns. Word of mouth is a very powerful thing if something is worth talking about. Whether Darkfall will warrant this type of discussion after it releases remains to be seen.

    F2P games and monthly subscription MMOs (which Darkfall is) are completely different and I have no idea why you're comparing them.

  • I'm going to say that's because publishers who make decisions regarding lots of money aren't as gullible and optimistic as the fans.
